Thought On Blood Bond Rules

I was just scanning over the thing about blood bonds and this stuck out to me:

A botch means that the thrall will now do about anything to get another taste and consume the regnant fully into them through the act of Diablerie.

Correct me if I am mistaken, but from my understanding of Diablerie it is kind of a ritualistic type of thing that has to be consciously done and most kindred don't even know how to perform it. I would suggest dumping this because of that and maybe go with something simpler like a botch requires an additional roll to resist frenzy or... just whatever you would want. Also difficulty 9 is pretty damn high so I would think you'd have a bunch of characters running around trying to diablierize everyone when "realistically" most wouldn't even have half a clue as to how to do it.

Anyway, I'm not really trying to argue with anything. You guys know I am pretty go with the flow. This is just a thought I had about the Diablerie and figured I would.

I edited this to get rid of something I thought was unrelated to my question that I wrote in a blurr of tiredness.

to my knowledge there is no specific ritual with diableriee, it is just keeping drinking.. you will 'know' when you have stopped drinking the 'normal' blood and are drinking the hearts blood
 
 
that said, I would say that we really shouldn't have a rule as forces us to diableriee (and kill) other players, against both players free will.

Well I don't know where the heck I heard that stuff from then. Maybe it is crap.

Yep, what Lyc said! Wights can diablerize too which is why they're scary to Vamps beyond masq breaches!

2 spooky.

Okay I was thinking it was some extreme thing that you had to have a certain know how to do. But the rule makes a lot more sense to me now considering that.

Maybe you were confused with Vaulderie?

The rule stands. Sorry guys, but the world of darkness is just that.
