Please don't put your reply above the text to which you're replying.
It makes it difficult to follow the conversation.
The effect requires whichever icon(s) are printed in front of the effect.
If the effect lists one icon, then only that discipline is required
(and at the level indicated).
If the effect lists two icons, then those two disciplines are required
(and at the respective levels indicated).

I'm certain this is the case, but I just want to verify in case it ever
comes up:
If you have a card that requires <ani><aus>, a vamp that has ANI aus
can play it, yes?

Can Ian Forestal "fake out" two disciplines at basic at the same time, for
purposes of playing, for example, the obf/cel card?
What about Infernal Familiar? Do you have to pay it just one investment
counter to play a multi-discipline card that requires two disciplines you
don't have? Or do you have to pay it two for that action?

Well , but at how level? ANI aus -- > can play the sup level of the card ?
or he needs to have both disciplines at sup. ?
Vamp disci. : inf + inf = card option: inf
sup + inf = ???
sup + sup = sup

No. His special allows him to play a single-discipline effect as if he had
that discipline. He could not even play a chi/aus card (unless he gained
Chimerstry somehow).

Same story - singles only.
LSJ

Yes. Having the superior *is* having the normal (plus some).
LSJ

What sup level?
You could play the ANI aus level, but not the ani AUS level or the ANI AUS
level.
("Sup level" isn't really appropriate for multi-discipline cards, you should
refer to the effects by the disciplines and levels required.)

Given the use of the singular in his card text, I'd have to rule (were I
judging) that he couldn't.

They can only play it if it requires "a" discipline they do not have, by
card text.
I would, were I judging and this came up, rule that, say, a vampire with
Infernal Familiar and, say, dom/tha/aus trying to play an ani+aus card
could do it, but they couldn't play a for+obf (picking random
disciplines).

To play the <ANI> <AUS> version of the card, you need both ANI and AUS.
If you have ANI and aus, or ani and AUS, or ani and aus you could play
the <ani> <aus> version of the card.

Can you clarify this?
Will Infernal Familiar work in a situation where the vampire knows one
of the required disciplines but not the other?

Same as the Ian clarification (snipped from above).

It does seem that the vampire would be attempting to play a card that
requires a discipline they do not have, however.

The card doesn't require "a" discipline.

No, it requires "a Discipline he or she does not have".

It requires two disciplines, one of which he doesn't have.

Certainly; but Infernal Familiar, by card text, is only referring to the
discipline the vampire doesn't have.
It is not "When this vampire plays a card requiring a discipline..... If
they don't not have it..." It is "a Discipline he or she does not have"
as a full phrase. Other requirements are not referenced - only that the
card requires "a Discipline he or she does not have".
Does the card (in the situation of an "ani/aus" card where the Infernal
Familiar vampire only has "aus") require "a Discipline he or she does
not have"? I can only answer this as yes. The card requires Animalism,
which is a discipline they do not have. It also requires other things.
Also, by [LSJ 20011203], a Path of Paradox will reduce a CHI/AUS card.
But the card does not require "Chimerstry", it requires Chimerstry and
Auspex. Why can the text there - "cards that require Chimerstry" -
ignore the Auspex aspect, but analogous text here - "requires a
Discipline he or she does not have" - cannot also ignore the other
requirements?
Would a hypothetical card that required Animalism and the title of
Prince by playable by a Prince with Infernal Familiar?
It seems to me that the answer would be "yes" - since it "requires a
Discipline he or she does not have", and the requirements that the
vampire *does* fulfil are not referenced by card text.
Infernal Familiar does not reference, so far as I can tell, cards which
require "a Discipline" but a far more specific and qualified form - "a
Discipline he or she does not have".

Ah.
<White Flag>
I yield to your ironclad logic.
REVERSAL:
Infernal Familiar will supply a (single) missing Discipline (at normal) towards
the play of a card that requires multiple Disciplines.

Yay!

Good show, old chap!

Heh. Not that I use Infernal Pact/Ian Forrestal much...
Human cloning? I'm not sure what would happen if there were a mess of
me running around. It'd be trouble, that's for certain. Unless you
only meant to create one...of course then, you'd probably have trouble
keeping him in line. :)
ObV:tES - I *just* figured out that Engling Fury is worded the way it
is at superior not as reminder text, but for repeat-action
environments. Crazy. What will they come up with next? Clones,
probably.
