Updated with what I hope is a better solution.

The special screamed Salubri to me, so my mind went on a bit of a wander. Keeping the disciplines you've picked (even though they're not in-clan for Salubri - but we can say he's weird for some reason), and keeping him Anarch (also weird for some reason), and going for a reverse Phillipe Rigaud to try to keep it balanced at 4 cap, I end up with something that looks like:

Mixing in aus or for might make him a more useful Anarch, but nec/pot was your version.

Thematically, the idea of this ability came from a specific power.

Necromancy 3, Resume the Coil
Description: Awaken from Torpor or help another vampire do so.

Technically, it is the Mortuus Path, so... Harbinger of Skulls might be closer than Salubri.

Mechanically, this character was meant to fill a combat support slot. The idea being if combat goes wrong, this character can perform the rescue action. That said, seemed a convenient discipline... but I could easily see or being valid options.

So after some testing... I am finding José to be underwhelming. The other 4 capacity Anarchs all have 4 points of disciplines and he only has 2. His ability is useful but it is situational. So let's go another route. Let's try to make him as useful to as many decks as possible. Make him cost an extra pool so that he is effectively a 5 capacity vampire then we can give him an optimal array of disciplines.

What do you think about this?

Independent Anarch. When José enters play, you burn a pool.

The advantage of this design is that he has all in clan disciplines for Giovanni, Harbinger of Skulls, Nagaraja and Ventrue antitribu. This makes him a gateway vampire for Anarch conversions for any of those clans.
