Vis: 2 pawns of Vim, one in each head.
Appearance: This huge dog has two slavering heads protruding from its massive shoulders. The two heads are cursed with independent minds which clearly hate each other and would like nothing more than to bite the other; it is only because the hound's necks are too short that it cannot. The dog is covered in gray fur in the few areas which are not affected by mange, which has left patches of puffy, purulent red flesh.
This corrupted beast was created by a diabolist to be a guard for his sanctum. He controls it with an Infernal charm, but is fearful of the day that this charm fails, for he knows that the dog hates him.
General physical prowess. It includes moving smoothly, confidently, and with grace. Use of Athletics improves most large-muscle coordination.
\nSpecialties: acrobatics, contortions, grace, jumping, running. (General)

The effects of the benediction should be comparable to other Major Virtues. (See insert page @@ for examples.)
The character has a supernatural power that he can activate at will.
If you take the Virtue once, this is a single power, equivalent to a Formulaic Hermetic spell with a level of 50 or lower. You may also spend levels one-for-one to give the power Penetration; otherwise, it has a Penetration of zero.
This Virtue may be taken more than once, and the levels added together to create several powers. For example, a character who took the Virtue twice could have a power with a level of 60 and a Penetration of 0, and a second power with a level and Penetration of 20 each. By default, there should be one power per Virtue, as this Virtue is intended for powers that are individually significant. See Lesser Power if you want your character to have multiple minor powers. However, the troupe may allow the character to take more powers if they have a strong thematic link.
The power has an Initiative equal to the character’s Quickness – (power magnitude/2) (rounded down). It costs one Fatigue level to activate if its level is less than or equal to 50, or two Fatigue levels if its level is 51 to 100. Higher level effects are unlikely to make sense.
This Virtue may be associated with any supernatural realm. If you have access to other books, such as Realms of Power: The Divine, Realms of Power: The Infernal, Realms of Power: Faerie, or Hedge Magic Revised Edition, you may want to base the power on a different system of supernatural powers, to get something more appropriate to the character. If you do, remember that the levels of effects may work on different scales for different systems, and you may want to change the number of levels of effect. The power must be associated with the same supernatural realm as the system on which it is based. (If you have access to other books, you may want to restrict powers based on Hermetic magic to the Magic realm.)

The creature has been corrupted by Infernal power, and has acquired an Infernal Might of 5. The negative side of its character is brought to the fore, and it acquires one sinful Personality Trait at +6, such as Violent, Gluttonous or Lustful. As part of the corruption, the beast acquires some sort of disgusting or repellent appearance, decreasing its Presence to –6. However, should the animal make any attempt to scare or intimidate an opponent, this should be treated as a Presence of +6. Despite this deformity, it is possible (although difficult) to pass the animal off as a natural member of its species. Finally, the creature acquires the Tainted with Evil Flaw which affects the reactions of both humans and other animals towards it. Corrupted Beasts do not react negatively to The Gift.
