This level 5 power is rarely learned by Tremere but often learned by the Ravnos who trust their family implicitly. When the Character activates the power, they name another kindred in the same State as them. At the end of the round ( just before Explosives) the power activates and the Ravnos is whisked away in a bolt of lightning; anyone grappling them can choose to “ride the lightning” to the person of choice.
The named person must spend one willpower (per passenger ( person grappling the caster), and does not know how many passengers are coming until after they have agreed to the “Charges.” If the target refuses to spend the will, or doesn't have enough will, the power fizzles and the caster takes 4L. Ravnos use this power because they “trust” their family. Tremere don’t trust anyone enough to use this.
Alternatively, This action can be used as a Travel action. They make it to their destination perfectly with no travel chop required; bringing additional “passengers” Costs one willpower each, which will be spent at the beginning of the following session
