The player of the Flescrafting vampire makes a successful {@attribute Dexterity|V20} + {@ability Medicine|V20} roll (difficulty variable: 5 for a crude yank-and-tuck, up to 9 for precise transformations). A vampire who wishes to increase another’s {@attribute Appearance|V20} Trait does so as described under {@discipline_power Malleable Visage|V20}; reducing the Attribute is considerably easier (difficulty 5), though truly inspired disfigurement may dictate a higher difficulty. In either case, each success increases or reduces the Attribute by one.","A vampire may use this power to move clumps of skin, fat, and muscle tissue, thus providing additional padding where needed. For each success scored on a {@attribute Dexterity|V20} + {@ability Medicine|V20} roll (difficulty 8), the vampire may increase the subject’s soak dice pool by one, at the expense of either a point of {@attribute Strength|V20} or a health level (vampire’s choice)."],"parent":"vampire/power/discipline/vicissitude","level":2,"_qa":{"flags":[],"parser":"section_entries","confidence":0.9,"extracted":"2026-10-15","job":"v20-disciplines"},"_links":{"self":"/api/v1/records/vampire/power/discipline_power/fleshcraft","html":"/records/vampire/power/discipline_power/fleshcraft","parent":"/api/v1/records/vampire/power/discipline/vicissitude","children":"/api/v1/records/vampire/power/discipline_power/fleshcraft/children","sources":[{"abbr":"V20","page":249,"folio":249,"title":"Vampire: The Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition"}]},"_db":{"title":"Fleshcraft","props":[["Discipline","Vicissitude"],["Cost","1 Blood"]],"parent_id":"vampire/power/discipline/vicissitude","level":2,"category":null,"summary":"This power is similar to Malleable Visage, above, but allows the vampire to perform drastic, grotesque alterations on other creatures.
