As per your request, you and and the clan will be taught what it means to be Ventrue.
You will gather and sanctify 1000 needles and insert them into your flesh while contemplating the unquestioned wisdom of your Ancestors in a private ceremony attended by your Sire or one of my Archons.
Every other member of Clan Ventrue will prepare 10 sanctified needles and insert them into their flesh while contemplating the pain endured by Prince Rockswell -- due to their failure to answer his call.
The pain of one is borne by all. The glory of one is given to all. That is our strength.
