For our purposes, new characters will have a Refresh of 4 to start. Four Aspects (Concept, Trouble, +2); 2 Stunts; a skill pyramid of 4 (+1) / 3 (+2) / 2 (+3) / 1 (+4) and use the following adjusted skill list: Adjusted Skill List Art: Art is anything which creates art. Whether it is singing, playing an instrument, painting, or sculpting. Athletics: Athletics is your physical fitness and ability to run and avoid taking damage by dodging attacks. Burglary: Burglary is the ability to bypass security measures and in general find methods of escape. Contacts: Contacts is the skill of knowing and making connections with people. Sometimes knowing the right people is all you need. Deceive: Deceive is a skill for lying or misdirecting people. Drive: Drive is all about operating vehicles. Includes everything from boats, to forklifts, to cars and motorcycles. Assign a Stunt to use this on aircraft. Education: Education covers the real-world things that Lore does not. History, sciences, and mathematics. You gain 1 additional starting Language per point in Education. Empathy: Empathy involves knowing and being able to spot changes in a person’s mood or bearing. Fight: Fight covers all forms of close-quarters combat (in other words, within the same zone), both unarmed and using weapons. For the ranged weapons counterpart, see Shoot. Investigate: Investigate is the skill you use to find things out. It’s a counterpart to Notice—whereas Notice revolves around situational alertness and surface observation, Investigate revolves around concentrated effort and in-depth scrutiny. Lore: Lore is about knowledge not traditionally covered by education. A person with this skill likely reads, a lot. This also covers occult, mythology, and religious based knowledge. Mechanics: Mechanics involves anything with moving parts or things that need a workshop to create or repair. Fixing a car or a clock, or knowing where the vents of a furnace most likely exit the building would all be covered under this skill. Notice: Notice involves just that—noticing things and possibly revealing additional information to the player. Physique: Physique is a counterpart to Athletics, representing the character’s natural physical aptitudes, such as raw strength and endurance. Each point of Physique also adds an additional level of Physical Health. Provoke: Provoke is the skill about getting someone’s dander up and eliciting negative emotional response from them—fear, anger, shame, etc. It’s the “being a jerk” skill. It can be used to intimidate, taunt, or command as needed. Rapport: Rapport is all about making positive connections to people and eliciting positive emotion. It’s the skill of being liked and trusted. It can be considered the opposite of Provoke. Resources: Resources describes your character’s general level of material wealth in the game world and ability to apply it. Shoot: Shoot is the skill of using ranged weaponry, either in a conflict or on targets that don’t actively resist your attempts to shoot them (like a bull’s-eye or the broad side of a barn). Stealth: Stealth allows you to avoid detection, both when hiding in place and trying to move about unseen. Survival: Survival covers some basic practical skill areas such as cooking, fishing, and navigation and can be used as an alternative to Education for things like first aid treatment. Technology: Utilizing the finer aspects of electronic devices including phones, tablets, and computers. Assign a Stunt if you want Hacking. Will: Will represents your character’s general level of mental fortitude, the same way that Physique represents your physical fortitude. For each point gained, you also increase your ability to handle Mental stress. </td> <td> <<include "GOTO List">> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> </td> </tr> </table>

Just being in proximity of some vampires is enough to cause someone to become exposed or infected, reducing their ability to resist the source. Most beome Thralls from being bitten, and the length of time which this effect lingers depends mostly on the age of the vampire that made the bite. Older vampires feed less often, but the effects from it last much longer. Vassals & Consorts Vassals are servants who have been infused with vampiric blood, granting them some of the abilities of their masters, but making them wholly dependant on those masters at the same time. Vassals removed from sources of exposure and access to vampire blood revert to a fully human state within 30 days, but will suffer from terrible withdrawls. Any vampire can create a Vassal. Consorts have been infused with the blood of a Progenitor, meaning that the organism has adopted them as a host. It remains in hibernation until it feels the host begin to die, which causes it to awaken and take over. No Consort has so far survived removal from all sources of exposure and vampiric blood. Without a nearby source of it, the organism simply remains in hibernation for up to 90 days before forcing the change to occur itself, rather than succumbing to starvation inside of the host. Fledgelings This stage of the vampire's life is arguably the most difficult. It lasts for about a year and is considered over when they can no longer handle exposure to sunlight. During the first month, the new vampire undergoes physical and often psychological changes as well as the organism inside their brain seeks to survive by whatever means neccessary. The first few weeks, the vampire doesn't even have fangs and isn't producing enough of the secondary infection to induce Thralldom in potential victims and so is almost entirely dependant upon their Progenitor to help them feed early on. Due to their constantly changing body, they also feed often (usually needing blood 4-5 times per week) but generally only causing weakness in their prey unless they've been skipping meals. Young Those lucky enough to survive their first year and start to actually burn in the light of the sun are now full vampires. At this stage, the vampire's metabolism becomes more stable, allowing them to feed more deeply less often. Typical specimens feed twice a week, not usually needing to kill prey unless they've been pushed, though some do it for sport. The Agency recognizes this stage to be from between 1 and 25 years. Only one known case of a vampire from this category being a Progenitor has ever been recorded, and that happened during the Mexico Incident. Experienced Experienced vampires seem to be the primary acting force for their kind, at least on the surface. Most Progenitors are from this category, usually at the latter half of this stage. The age range the Agency recognizes for this stage is 25-250 years old. As their metabolism changes, they feed less often (about 1/7-10 days), but the urge to feed more deeply at once becomes more pronounced and they will either kill one victim, or weaken two or even three individuals per feeding. Elder Most vampires of this stage start to become reclusive, eventually seeking out remote locations or moving underground entirely. They may only feed once a month, but they'll kill three or four people at one sitting, or weaken three times that number. The Agency recognizes vampires from between the ages of 250 to 1000 to be in this category. Ancient The oldest vampires seem to avoid humanity as a whole except to feed. Some may feed only once a year, or once a decade... but when they do, they can wipe out a small village in a single feeding, or wreak havoc by creating a legion of Thralls in the wake of an after-nap snack. </td> <td> <<include "GOTO List">> </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3"> <<include "GOTO Vampires">> </td></tr></table>
