Sunlight

Sunlight, one of the two banes all Kindred share, is deadly. It can inspire Rotschreck, and can kill in seconds. Damage suffered by sunlight per 3 second turn is determined by a Kindred's Humanity and Blood Potency as in the chart below.

Suffering Sunlight Damage

 * Direct Sunlight: Flesh begins to sear and smoke, turning black and burning away with direct sunlight; elder Kindred may even catch fire.
 * Indirect Sunlight: Makes Kindred feel ill, their bodies beginning to rot, at a level and speed as noted above.
 * If a Kindred manages to avoid frenzy at being exposed to sunlight, all rolls are made at the difficulty listed above as matches the level of exposure.
 * The charted difficulties also apply to Fortitude soak rolls.

 * Being caught at a window or door as the suns rays enter a room.
