Impairment

When a character is Impaired, Inconnu removes 2 dice from the affected rolls for you.

If every Health box is Aggravated, Inconnu also tells you that you're in torpor (vampires) or dead (everyone else).

Which rolls are penalized

Inconnu decides a roll's category from the Attributes in its pool:

• Physical: Strength, Dexterity, Stamina
• Social and Mental: Charisma, Manipulation, Composure, Intelligence, Wits, Resolve

Skills, Disciplines, and custom Traits don't affect the category. A pool with both a Physical and a Social or Mental Attribute is penalized by either kind of Impairment. Pools without an Attribute, such as 7 or Auspex + Awareness, are never penalized automatically.

The penalty shows in the roll's Pool field:

Strength + Brawl - 2 (physical impairment)

Changing the category for one roll

/vr, /roll, /vm, and /probability take an impairment_category option:

Use it when the pool doesn't say what the roll is. For instance, a Discipline roll with no Attribute, or Strength + Intimidation used socially. When the option changes the outcome, the roll's footer says so (for example, Override: Impairment ignored).

/vr syntax:wits+awareness impairment_category:Ignore

Turning it off

If you'd rather subtract the dice yourself, turn off Automatically apply Impairment? in /settings scope:Yourself. Inconnu then reminds you of your Impairment in the roll's footer instead. The setting is per player and follows you across servers.

impairment_category still applies its penalty when the setting is off.
