Sanctaphrax:
I don't think that this is a good idea.
Human sacrifices are pretty freakin' powerful in this game. This power would make them easy to acquire, and it might even avoid the Lawbreaker problem.
That's scary powerful.

Blackstaff powerful.
Sanctaphrax:
And the Blackstaff probably has some kind of sponsor debt mechanic for balance.
This doesn't.
ways and means:
I did not see it bypassing lawbreaker (though anyone using this power (usually in a dagger) as intended would probably already have lawbreaker 1st twice anyway), in terms of game balance it dose not change anything lives are cheap and any semi-competent supernatural can get hold multiple prisoners without much trouble and sacrifice them. The power on expedites the process so 2 refresh for a mere utility upgrade dose not seem overpriced.
Sanctaphrax:
Um..no.
If human sacrifices were supposed to be really easy, then they wouldn't give 20 complexity.
You do stuff like that, you can expect complications.
Besides, this is excessively convenient. Kidnapping and imprisoning people just in case you eventually need them as sacrifice fodder is massively impractical. This is mechanically equivalent and very easy.
