Editing The Blood (section)

===Blood Bond System===
The Blood Bond gains a Bond Strength equal to the number of times the thrall has consumed the regnantâ€™s Blood (up to a maximum of 6) and decreases by one for each month during which the thrall consumes none of the regnantâ€™s Blood. To attempt something against their regnantâ€™s wishes, the thrall must succeed in a contest of Resolve + Intelligence vs. Bond Strength. If in the presence of the regnant, such defiance requires the test once per turn; if outside the regnantâ€™s perception, the thrall need only make a defiance test once per scene. 

Breaking the Bond requires the thrall to reduce the Bond Strength to 0 (zero) by avoiding their regnant for an extended time. They must successfully make a defiance roll once per session to do so (or more often, if the Storyteller judges that something has recalled the regnant to the thrallâ€™s mind). Few thralls can resist this long, especially if their regnant actively comes looking for them.
