One of the most overt Disciplines available to vampires, more or less all Protean powers can breach the Masquerade on their own. For this reason users of Protean often travel light.

Protean does not affect larger carried items, including backpacks, duffel and sports bags. Protean powers that change the shape or in other ways transform the body of the vampire also affect clothing, swallowed items, and other small (under a few grams) wearables. The power enables a vampire to become a beast, turn their limbs into weapons, or change their shape into clouds of mist to evade capture, glide through keyholes, or slip through cracks in a window.

Meeting with lupines was never a safe proposition, but reacting the way he did, brandishing his claws and threatening to take out that werewolf pup’s eyes… He should have had better control over his anger. He couldn’t see them, but he could definitely hear their howls. Rudi waded through the shallow waters, looking over his shoulder to see if his pursuers were tracking him now he’d left the land and stopped leaving a trail.
