Shaft of Belated Quiescence (Vampire Players Guide pg. 89)
Time Required: Five hours.
Duration: A stake.
Components: Sharpened shaft of rowan wood.
Availability: Regent
Prerequisites: Thaumaturgy: Primary Path - Intermediate
Ability: Occult - 2.
This particularly vicious ritual is cast on a stake that is meant for the heart of a vampire. During a five-hour ritual, the caster must carve an ornate series of symbols onto a sharpened shaft of rowan wood, coat the stake with her blood, and blacken it in an oak-wood fire. The darkened shard then becomes one of the most feared Kindred-slaying weapons known. A simple hit with the stake, even in the leg or arm, causes the tip to break off inside the victim and begin burrowing into the victim's body. The point then slowly works its way to the heart. The victim of this attack may not even know what is occurring until it is too late.
Mechanics: During the time of the stake's journey, the sufferer will occasionally feel sharp pains. These pains grow closer together and more unbearable as the tip nears its un-missable target. Damage caused by the thing's journey isn't enough to remove Health Levels from a vampire, but will harm a mortal or ghoul. One of the ways to be rid of the thing is to dig for it - a very grisly process that won't necessarily work. The vile thing may actually try to elude the operator, automatically burrowing away from the open wound. The surgeon does more and more damage as he digs deeper after it. Needless to say, this weapon is a death sentence for a mortal, and may well destroy Kindred, because who knows where the vampire might be when she is immobilized...
The accuracy with which the wielder originally hits the target determines how long it may take the tip of the stake to reach the target s heart. Missing only one of the Simple Tests for staking means that the stake is already close to the target s heart and will receive their first attempt at staking the target sometime that evening (or anytime within that game session at the ST s discretion). If the tip of the stake broke off else where, i.e. neither of the two Simple staking challenges was successful or the tip was purposefully broken off elsewhere in the target s body, the following method is used for determining the success of the stake.
The process requires the stake to make a Simple Test each day; if successful it inflicts a normal level of damage to non-Kindred and is immediately allowed to make an additional Simple Test. If the second test is successful the subject is staked through the heart! Staking paralyzes Kindred normally and kills mortals, Garou, etc. immediately! If it fails the first Simple Test it makes no progress that day. While the stake is in the target s body she is two Traits down on all challenges due to the pain that she is experiencing. The stake actually resists attempts to remove it, burrowing away from surgeons and inflicting more damage in the process. But, there are ways to remove the splinter before it reaches its objective. The first way, and by far the most inadvisable, is the target of the ritual trying to remove the splinter herself. To accomplish this task the victim must cut, rip or claw themselves open, noting the latter causes aggravated damage. The subject is considered to have half of their normal Physical Traits when making a Static Challenge against the Thaumaturgist s Mental Traits. In addition - the splinter receives one free retest for each attempt to remove it from the Victim. For each failed test, including retests, the Victim takes one wound.
The more intelligent alternative to foil this ritual s effects is to have a trained surgeon attempt to remove the splinter from the victim. To be successful in this endeavor the surgeon must succeed in two Static Mental Challenges against the Thaumaturgist s Mental Traits. But the surgeon only receives as many chances to gain these two successes as she has Medical Abilities. Each failure in this process causes one non-aggravated wound to the victim. The surgeon may proceed with these challenges as many times as she wishes - however each failed complete surgery allows the splinter an additional set of tests - as if a day had passed...

Splinter Servant (Vampire Players Guide pg. 90)
Time Required: Two-Days
Duration: Until used, once used until destroyed, or reduced to so many splinters that they are inanimate.
Components: The wood of a graveyard tree, nightshade twine and wax.
Availability: Regent
Prerequisites: Thaumaturgy: Primary Path - Intermediate
Ability: Occult - 2.
This is one of the most horrific and bizarre of the rituals practiced by Thaumaturgist. This ritual creates an anti-Kindred weapon.
Mechanics: This ritual involves carving a stake from the wood of a graveyard tree, or at least a tree that has nourished itself on the dead. After a two-night period of incantation and preparation, the shaft is endowed with a form of limited, if dormant, sentience. To finish the ritual, nightshade twine must be wrapped around the stake and sealed with wax to form a brittle sheath. If the sheath is subsequently torn off, the enchantment is activated and the one who released the Servant must command it within one turn , (one action or approximately three seconds), to attack someone, or it will attack its wielder. The stake then leaps into action, splitting apart and splintering to form makeshift limbs, which it uses to propel itself toward its target. The little terror is relentless and will stop at nothing to impale its target's heart. It will continue trying until it has either succeeded or torn itself to small pieces... . The fragmentary nature of the thing sometimes causes other side effects: often, if it does impale its victim, it will continue splintering inside the heart, making it difficult to pull out, or maybe even leaving parts of itself behind (and still leaving the target immobilized). The Splinter Servant cannot be commanded to do anything other than attack, and it always goes for the heart. It will always find its target unless it is stopped.
If the wielder gives many names, the Servant will engage the first one and only change targets if another Splinter Servant immobilizes that target. But, the wielder may, at any time, give the command to the Splinter Servant to attack another. Servants have as many Physical Traits as their creator has Mental Traits divided by half, rounded down. These Traits are not lost if they fail in a Physical Challenge - as they do not tire. Also, Splinter Servants receive one Wound Level per Occult Ability of their creator. And upon taking the final Wound Level they crumble into a pile of splinters. Lastly, if a Splinter Servant is unlucky enough to meet with Deflection of the Wooden Doom - it is destroyed.
Upon successfully striking a target in the chest, which it does by launching itself at the target, the Splinter Servant s attack does one Wound and it makes a regular Staking Challenge. If a Splinter Servant manages to succeed in staking an individual they will continue to splinter within the target s heart, making it nearly impossible to unstake the victim.
