Default Re: Long-Term Geases & Resistance

According to pg. 149 of the core rules, "When the victim hears what the Lilim wants, he gets a Will roll to resist." That's the one "out" that a victim gets; if he chooses to pass it up, that's his problem.

As others have pointed out, in the classic "deal with the devil" stories, the victim usually doesn't realize the catch in his agreement when he first makes the deal. By the time he does, the blood is dry on the contract and it's much too late to do anything about it.
