You have had blood, health, or some manner of vitality drained from you by a creature (often a vampire) infected with Blightfang. You now share some of that creature’s hungers, and you have become linked to its life and death. You must make a Resolve + Composure roll every night or perform the same self-sustaining tasks as the individual who infected you, such as drinking blood. Each night you successfully resist this urge, the number of dice you can roll reduces by 1, to a maximum of –4 dice. Additionally, you now lose two dice in social and mental challenges taking place in sunlight, as you develop an aversion to the natural light. When your hunger takes over, you attack the nearest vulnerable vessel and in so doing, reduce the craving. If your victim is mortal — whether human or animal — you pass on the Condition.

Possible Sources: A Blightfang vampire bites you; an infected ghost drains some of your health; an infected Beast drains your Willpower as you sleep; you come into contact with the corpse of someone infected with Blightfang.

Resolution: Exposing yourself to the Grey, or killing the creature that infected you. If the creature that infected you dies, you immediately attack the closest living individual and cannot be broken from your frenzy without achieving an exceptional success on a Resolve + Composure roll or being subdued until the next scene by others.

Beat: Willingly passing on the Condition.
