Physical Disciplines

Potence, Fortitude and Celerity are the "instinctive" or "physical" Disciplines. They may be learned by practicing on one's own, unlike the other Disciplines, which require a teacher. These Disciplines also have an additional use beyond the one listed in the book. By spending one blood point, the user can activate Potence, Fortitude, or Celerity to add their dots in that Discipline to the relevant physical stat (Strength, Stamina, or Dexterity, respectively) for the rest of the scene.

In addition, there are physical limitations on what may be done during the extra turns granted by Celerity. During the additional turns, a character may not speak or activate disciplines, and may only move up to half their normal speed. A gun may only be fired once in a round, and a similar rule applies for most other machinery. (However, a character with two guns may fire both of them, or a character attempting to shoot while driving a car may do so- the limit is in the physical material of the gun, not with the character.)
