| =Character Creation Rules= | | <font color=red>'''Humanity'''</font><br> |
| Here is a brief guide as to what we are accepting:
| | ''V20 Core, pg 311'' |
|
| |
|
| ==Clans==
| | Let’s make one thing clear: just because a vampire follows the Path of Humanity doesn’t mean she is a friendly, congenial saint. Vampires are predators by nature, and Humanity only gifts them with the ability to pretend they’re not. It is an internal charade that protects a Kindred from herself, much as the Masquerade protects vampires from the mortals outside. |
| [[File:Reddot-filled.png|10px]] All Camarilla Core Clans<br>
| |
| [[File:Reddot-filled.png|10px]] Independents, Anarchs, & Sabbat are currently <font color=red>'''closed'''</font><br>
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Ages==
| | Unfortunately, the very nature of existence as a vampire is anathema to one’s Humanity. As the centuries wear on, the Beast takes hold, and Kindred become less and less concerned with the wellbeing of the kine (after all, they’ll die eventually, anyway). As such, characters are likely to lose Humanity over the course of the game. |
| [[File:Reddot-filled.png|10px]] Neonates are openly accepted. <br>
| |
| [[File:Reddot-filled.png|10px]] Ancilla & Elders are currently <font color=red>'''closed'''</font>
| |
|
| |
|
| For Neonates:<br>
| | Mortals also typically follow the Path of Humanity, though this is largely out of ignorance: They don’t know they can be anything else. As such, this mechanical system for morality rarely comes into play for them. Certainly, some mortals — rapists, murderers, and the like — have low Humanity ratings, but they have no Beast roiling within them, as do the Kindred. It is possible for a vampire with a high Humanity rating to be more humane than some mortals are! |
| [[File:Reddot-filled.png|10px]] There is a hard age cap of 100 years old max including embrace.<br>
| | {| class="wikitable" style="float: right; padding-left: 10px; border:2px ridge red;" |
| [[File:Reddot-filled.png|10px]] For those that were a ghoul prior to their embrace, the hard cap is 150 years total from the time of mortal birth <br>
| | ! Path Rating |
| (of which they must be 100 or less years embraced. This can be used for thematic/story purposes and does '''''not''''' allow for any additional stats on their sheet.)
