Editing MTH:Social Merits (section)

===TAUNT (* to ***)===
PREREQUISITES: Manipulation, Persuasion, Expression or Intimidation 3+

EFFECT: The character is able to bait enemies into focusing their attention on him for a moment. If he rolls an appropriate social action (usually Manipulation + Social skill vs target's Composure) and succeeds, the target takes a -1 penalty per dot in Taunt to all actions. Each turn this penalty reduces by one, until it expires at -0. Nothing stops the character from taunting them further. 

If the character has an effective Manipulation of 5+, then the penalties for multiple taunts stack.

By spending 1 Willpower or Verve, the character can taunt as a reflexive action once during his turn.

Though it shouldn't really need to be mentioned, targets which cannot understand the target or are simply emotionless cannot be effected by this merit.

God Machine Rules Update note: The 'Taunted' effect counts as a Tilt.
