Kamen ("the Mask") is the unique Discipline of the Sotoha bloodline of the Ventrue. It aids the Kamen in preserving "Face", the calm exterior that betrays nothing of one's inner emotion - even in the shadow of the Beast.
Powers[]
Tatemae - the Kindred projects an entirely convincing facade of a particular emotion.
The Fitting Time - the Kamen delays entering frenzy, giving herself time to avoid embarrassment.
The Wave is the Man - the vampire has much more control when entering a voluntary frenzy and "riding the wave" - he may use mental Disciplines, hold on to rational thought, and appear to be behaving normally.
Face of the Moment - the Kindred is able act appropriately for any social situation in which she finds herself, even ones in which she has no experience.
Masking the Beast - the vampire maintains control even when entering involuntary frenzies.
