A newborn child might qualify as True Innocence, which could counter a white court vampire of Greed or something similar. It may also buy you a favor with a summer sidhe to set the vampire on fairy fire...

Also remember that Justine is a bit crazy.  She doesn't think that sex has anything to do with love...
Um...yes, you can have sex without loving the other person at all. How is that "crazy"?[/quote]


So when Justine has sex with Mara, it mingles her energy with someone not touched by true love, essentially overwriting the influence on true love. 

Exactly.  What I mean is she can have sex with someone without it affecting her love of Thomas.  This wouldn't typically be the case.

Which doesn't matter. What matters is the physical mechanics, the sharing of life energy. This is exactly what Madeline was threatening Justine with in Turn Coat--that Madeline would drive Justine mad with lust until she couldn't stand it, send in a guy to schtupp her, and then eat. Even though Justine would still be in love with Thomas just as much as she always has been.

Ah ok.

 It isn't an intangible.  It's totally based on swapping life force and/or bodily fluids. 

I get it now.

Not sure how I feel about it, but I get it.

I have no idea how you weaponize that catch unless...(nah the thought in my head isn't suitable to the forums.)

Suffice it to say it would be a ranged "attack" .  :o

Probably through compels. Alternatively, maybe when Justine decks a WCV it hurts that much more.

It may not be melee, but I'd be pretty impressed if you could do it from one zone away.
