Salubri Preview Is Up!
Robert Goudie
Disciplines: Auspex, Fortitude, Obeah
Sect: Independent
Nickname: Cyclops
Background
This widely hated bloodline has far more enemies than it really desrves.
Only seven of these Cainites exist at a time, for after a Salubri attains
Golconda, she ends her existence and passes her blood to the individual she has
chosen to take her place. These vampires usually pass as humans until someone
notices that they possess a third eye. Other clans perceive Salubri as
murderers and diablerists of the worst kind.
The power to heal is nothing at which to scoff, for the might of Obeah has
saved many lives. However, there is more to this Discipline than just healing.
It provides a form of control over other people's bodies and spirits. Obeah
seems connected to the Salubri's third eye, and any Kindred learning this
Discipline will also start to develope the eye.

V:TES Notes
The Salubri cards mix well with the Ventrue antitribu and the Harbingers of
Skulls. Each of the Salubri vampires is marked "scarce" (See Nagaraja Preview),
so they aren't suited for a single-clan deck.
New Mechanic:
Burn Option
Some library cards have a "burn option" icon above a clan icon (the clan
requirement) on the left side of the card. This symbol (only found on cards that
require a clan to play) indicates that during any Methuselah's untap phase, the
Methuselah can burn (discard) the card from his or her hand if he or she doesn't
control a ready member of the clan required. Each Methuselah is limited to one
such discard each untap phase.
Card Preview
Sight Beyond Sight
Master. Salubri. Burn option.
Unique master.
Put this card on a Salubri you control. The Salubri with this card gets +1
intercept.
This is another card designed for mixing Bloodlines clans with other clans.
With Sight Beyond Sight you get cheap permanent intercept. And if you don't get
your Salubri out for whatever reason, you can discard it freely (to avoid
clogging your hand).

imply that a Methuselah can burn one of these cards during
any Methuselah's untap?
Meaning I can burn at least 4 "Burn Option" cards before
my next turn comes around?
Just wanted to be sure I'm clear on this..

I would hope that "Any Methuselah's untap phase" would mean "Any
Methuselah's untap phase", yes.

Assuming five players at the table (and no Dramatic Upheaval/Reversal of
Fortune style shenanigins), yes.

Interesting. That it has to stay Salubri to use the intercept causes
problems for the Clan Impersonation Scarcity avoiding strategies
discussed previously.
One wonders how wide-spread this will be.

Correct.

Correct (and you can burn another on your own untap).
