Effect

Eye contact and one Rouse Check are required. Contest Charisma + Animalism against Stamina + Resolve. A defeated mortal becomes passive for the scene, retaining the ability to protect themself.
A defeated vampire cannot use Blood Surge or produce messy criticals for one turn plus the margin. A critical win also ends an existing frenzy.
