Name: The Obsidian Mask
Cardtype: Action card.
Cost: 2 Blood
Discipline: none
Clan: Hecata
+1 stealth action. Mask.
Put this card on this Hecata [Hec]. This vampire has superior oblivion [OBL]. While this minion is acting or in combat, cards requiring dominate [dom] or presence [pres] cost 1 more blood. This vampire can burn this card to play a card in your ash heap that required oblivion [obl] or hecata [Hec] as if from your hand. A vampire can have only one mask.
Flavor text: none
Art notes: An obsidian mask.
World of Darkness reference: Ability in VTM for Harbingers of Ashur..The Obsidian Mask: The Harbinger is not really a Kindred but a wraith inhabiting a Kindred's body. Learning Oblivion Ceremonies may be done so without a teacher for them, and they receive two dice to resist control effects (e.g. via Dominate), but at the cost of being vulnerable to Oblivion Ceremonies, taking a two-dice penalty towards resisting control effects over their ghostly self.
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This card is part of the Mask set for hecata. It allows you to fetch key cards that are in the ash heap but also makes weenies more powerful at the cost of 2 blood. It fits quite well with the lore. One possible change would be to cost nothing but give the penalty that the vampire with it also pays +1 blood on oblivion actions.

Name: The Gold Mask
Cardtype: Action card.
Cost: 2 Blood
Discipline: none
Clan: Hecata
+1 stealth action. Mask.
Put this card on this Hecata [Hec]. Once each turn, this vampire can burn 1 blood to give +1 stealth to another minion you control. During combat with an opposing ally, this vampire can burn this card to ranged strike: burn the opposig ally. A minion can have only one mask.
Flavor text: none
Art notes: A gold mask.
World of Darkness reference: Ability in VTM for Harbingers of Ashur..The Gold Mask: The Harbinger can conceal their actions and those of their coterie, gaining the equivalent of 4 dots of Influence when attempting to cover up a death.
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This card is part of the Mask set for hecata. An option to give stealth to other allies like bone shambler costing blood. It is also a way to have an inferior touch of oblivion ranged to help combat other allies. Combat with another ally is the only way of removing this mask by burning it.

Name: Death Rattle
Cardtype: Combat card
Cost: 1 blood
Discipline: Oblivion
Only usable by an unlocked vampire not involved in the combat. Lock this vampire.
Inferior oblivion [obl] If a minion you control is about to leave the ready region, the opposing minion takes 2 environmental damage before the end of combat.
Superior oblivion [OBL] As above, and if a vampire is about to go to torpor, this vampire can burn 1 blood to bring them to the ready region instead.
Flavor text: None
Art notes: A hand reaching out of a grave at night with the moon.
World of Darkness reference: None.
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This is a new combat card to work together with the new hecata allies or to be used in Lasombra combat when they are going into torpor. It is a way to punish opponents in combat who torporize your vampires or who decide to block your squishy allies in combat (servitor or bone shambler) so as to make them take damage (similar to FBI event). It does cost 1 blood and to lock another unlocked vampire not involved in combat so as not to be abused.
The superior effect is also very good to help you deal with combat since it is basically a rescue action at the same time and costing the same. I made it so it can work cross table if you need to desperately rescue another vampire from an ally right before combat is over (the opponent would not take damage since you do not control the minion so the basic effects do not proc), or if you just want to negotiate the rescue while it is not even your turn.

Name: The Gift of False Life
Cardtype: Action card
Cost: 1 blood
Discipline: Oblivion
+1 stealth action.
Basic oblivion [obl] Put this card in play. This card can attempt to block an action directed at you (or a card you control) and is considered a wraith with 1 life, 0 strength, 0 bleed. If the block is successful, burn this card at the end of the resulting combat.
Superior oblivion [OBL] As above, but with +1 strength and +1 intercept.
Flavor text: None.
Art notes: A corpse or a cadaver decomposing that is used to defend. A mass of flesh or bones.
World of Darkness reference: The gift of false life is an ability in VTM. "Gift of False Life, Raise either a single corpse or a group to perform simple single or repetitive tasks."
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This card is the idea of bringing in more unleash hell's fury type of cards to work with either hecata or lasombra. Hecata wall would benefit from another blocker for directed actions and would fit with the flavor of undead thrall that is used as a meat shield. It can only block once but it may do 1 damage in combat.

Name: Tenebrous Avatar
Cardtype: Combat card
Cost: 1 blood
Discipline: Oblivion
Basic oblivion [obl] Strike: strength ranged damage.
Superior oblivion [OBL] Only usable before range is determined. Opposing minions without auspex [aus] cannot strike: combat ends in the first round of combat. A vampire can play only one Tenebrous Avatar at superior each combat.
Flavor text: None.
Art notes: A monstruous shadow or a giant dark figure looming.
World of Darkness reference: Tenebrous Avatar is an ability in the lore. "Tenebrous Avatar: The vampire becomes a sentient patch of two-dimensional darkness, immune to damage except fire and sunlight. While in this shadow state they can pass through anything not hermetically sealed, are immune to most harms as described above, and can envelop others to feed without breaking the skin. Those enveloped by a vampire using Tenebrous Avatar suffer the effects of Stygian Shroud."
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This card is to support Lasombra and Hecata combat to give more combat options instead of immortal grapple to stop combat ends. It only works on minions that do not have auspex so it is situational, however the inferior effect is also handy because it allows you to strength strike even at long range.
The fact the superior only works on minions without auspex is flavourful since it is because the minion is not able to detect or see it so the avatar traps them in combat.
Another option to make it more lore-friendly would be to give prevention to non-aggravated damage however not sure if that would not be too strong for oblivion.

Name: Howling Shambler
Cardtype: Retainer
Cost: 1 Blood
Discipline: Oblivion
Wraith with 2 life.
Once each combat, before range is determined, the employer can discard a card requiring oblivion [obl} to get +1 strength for the remainder of combat.
Flavor text: none
Art notes: a ghost in agony or with reaching arms.
World of Darkness reference: Howling Shambler is referenced in VTM lore.
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This is a new retainer to fill in the lack of retainers and to be used by the new lasombra and hecata. It allows the vampire to discard cards with oblivion that are not needed and get more strength for the combat and since it is not unique you can stack them as well to get multiple discards.
At first I considered giving +2 strength instead but with the downside of not allowing the retainer to have additional strikes or maneuvers to long, but I think this way it is reasonable. I am unsure if 1 blood cost though is not too much and should be free instead. It can be used in conjunction with paths in two worlds as well.

Name: Cloak the Beast
Cardtype: Action
Cost: 1 Blood
Disciples: Potence and Obfuscate
Inferior potence and obfuscate [pot][obf]
Bleed with +1 bleed. If this action is blocked and the opposing minion is not ready after the resulting combat, this vampire can continue the action as if unblocked.
Superior potence and obfuscate [POT][OBF] As above, but at +2 bleed and this vampire gets 1 optional maneuver during that combat.
Flavor text: None
Art notes: Two vampires fighting with a looming shadow on one of them that assists in escaping or fighting. Or two vampires fighting and one of them appears to be a shadow in a looming strange form.
World of Darkness reference: None.
How does this card address a compelling game need?: This is a bleed card to assist bleed bruise decks. It works similarly to show of force but instead of giving strength on the combat it instead gives the option to continue the bleed if you manage to torporize or burn your opponent. At superior it also gives optional maneuver to assist potence combat. It requires dual disciplines so it is not an easy effect to use. It also costs 1 blood which seems appropriate. The disciples are obfuscate and potence to help Nosferatu decks mostly but can be used in other decks. It could also be considered with potence and oblivion instead but I believe obfuscate would be better to give more tools to nosferatu. There is also little reason to make it clan exclusive.
It is a great concept because it rewards you when you are good in combat and they has to risk going into combat to block the bleed. It is still vulnerable to bounces. This rewards combat decks a bit more instead of simple stealth bleed with obfuscate. It can also be used to bluff when you dont have good combat in hand but you scare your prey.
