| − | MERITS
| + | [[Category:Test]] |
| − | Important Things to Note:
| + | <comments /> |
| − | | + | {{Talk:Test}} |
| − | 1. Merits will subtract points from your freebie points to spend.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 2. Whenever possible merits and flaws balance each other out before they are spent as freebies.
| + | |
| − | This doesn’t concern the players as much as it does in how the STs total everything.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 3. All merits and flaws are subject to approval.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 4. Many merits and flaws must be role-played. If at any point in time, the STs feel you aren’t
| + | |
| − | RP’ing your merit or flaw, we may require you to buy them off at double the cost. You will not
| + | |
| − | get these points back.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 5. These may be taken from any appropriate 3rd Edition book. Merits and Flaws from
| + | |
| − | Vampire: the Masquerade (2nd Edition) and other White Wolf source books will be reviewed on a
| + | |
| − | case-by-case basis. Certain merits & flaws are self-explanatory, and represent random quirks of
| + | |
| − | fate – “Ambidextrous”, “Color Blind” etc. However, if your character has "Nightmares", explain
| + | |
| − | why. If they have a "True Love", mention it in the history, and so forth...
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 6. “Wrong Sect” Merit & Flaws -- Some Merit & Flaws are strictly sect specific. Be aware of this
| + | |
| − | and don’t ask for Prestigious Sire on an Anarch character.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 7. Eat Food – Please remember that Kindred as a whole consider this rather disgusting, and this
| + | |
| − | merit would be primarily a tool for camouflaging oneself amongst mortals and maintaining the
| + | |
| − | Masquerade. Vampire: the Masquerade (3rd Edition) says it best (p.296), “Of course, you can’t
| + | |
| − | digest what you eat, and there will be some point during the evening when you must force yourself
| + | |
| − | to heave it back up.” Bon appetit!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | 8. The following Merits and Flaws are generally considered unsuitable for online play or have
| + | |
| − | been repeatedly abused, and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis (you may ask, but you may
