Effect	You become the divine embodiment of Desire, worshipped in flesh, longing, and submission. Your aura warps the atmosphere with perfume, shadow, and heat. The air thrums with whispered desires. While this power is active, you radiate an intoxicating aura that turns those who have tasted the Black Bottle, or who are vulnerable into thralls of worshipful ecstasy. All creatures within the aura who meet any of the following criteria: Have consumed The Black Bottle within the past 24 hours, Are currently suffering from Curse of Ecstasy, Are under the effects of Velvet Chains, Are under the effects of Desire Made Flesh, Are Entranced by Call of the Bottle ...must immediately make a Mental Resistance check vs. your Charisma + Channeling + Desire Rank or become Supplicant for the duration (or until they leave the aura). Supplicant Condition: Target becomes Passive (will not initiate hostile actions). Will obey simple commands that bring pleasure, surrender, or submission unless directly suicidal. Cannot resist consumption of The Black Bottle or Sacrificial Communion. You may siphon 1 Health or 1 Mana per Supplicant each round as a Fast Action. You choose the resource. You may split this drain among your followers. Each round, you may use a Standard Action to cause one Supplicant to fall Prone in worship and become completely defenseless for 1 round. While this aura is active, you gain +2 Divine bonus to all Desire casting rolls. Allies in the aura gain +2d10 to all Resistance rolls vs. mind-affecting effects due to the overwhelming nature of your presence shielding them. If 3 or more Supplicants are drained in a round, you regain 1 spent Story Die.
