Properties
  • Grants dominion over whispers and fears, but intensifies the wearer's inner darkness

Description

A tarnished crown forged from darkened iron and bloodstone, cursed to exact a terrible toll from its wearer — power at the cost of their soul’s serenity.

Hook

Any vampire who dares claim the crown must confront the terrible price it demands in blood and soul.

History

Once a regal symbol of divine authority, it was cursed by a forsaken vampire seeking eternal influence, binding the bearer’s fate with a blood-price no mortal can refuse.

GM Notes

- The crown’s curse weakens the wearer’s resolve, increasing susceptibility to Beast impulses
- A rival vampire may attempt to steal or destroy it to free themselves from its influence
- The curse grows stronger with each life claimed, revealing its true cost
