Effect

Distillation follows Thin-Blood Alchemy's normal cost and method. Ingredients include your vitae, sanguine mortal blood, and fresh leaves. When ingesting the formula, roll Stamina + Alchemy; you can endure sunlight without damage for that many hours, ending no later than sunset. At sunset, repeat that pool at a Difficulty equal to hours spent in daylight. Failure inflicts one Aggravated damage; total failure inflicts two. The protection delays a risk rather than granting permanent sunlight immunity.
