As with the Venice game, everyone is starting with a Human, your concept is important. Spend at least a little bit of time considering this and post a brief history based on your concept for me.
Note that I'd prefer that you keep any discussion of interactions between your new PCs and your old Pcs as non-existent in your background. They will be there in the shadows as it were and I'll reveal that as part of the opening scene.
Character Creation Guidelines:
Pre Embrace
Attributes - 7/5/3
Abilities - 13/9/5
Backgrounds - 5
Virtues (each virtue starts with 1 point) - 7
Max Trait Rating 3.
Post Embrace
Disciplines - 4 (Clan Only)
Backgrounds - 5 (more)
Freebies - 15 (You may only select 1 non-clan Discipline and it must be approved by me first).
Max Trait Rating 4.
Miscellaneous
You may select up to 7 Flaw points. You may select some flaws during Human creation (if appropriate) but the Freebies generated will be spent post Embrace.
You may also select up to 10 points in Merits (obviously only freebies can be used to purchase these) again choices must be approved by me.
Generation
As some of you have chosen to be embraced by your prior characters this will be a LOW generation game. No Backgrounds should be spent on Generation, as I will choose your sires, I will set your generation. To offset the imbalance (and there will be an imbalance as Lou will be starting out at 5th generation) I will award extra freebies to the players who are higher generation. No one will start out lower than 7th.
Starting Location
Initially we will be starting in Liechtenstein. Unlike the Venice game, this game will explore some of the surrounding cities/countries.
Your humans can be from anywhere you want, so long as they have either moved to or are planning to go to Venice.
For the moment of course, this is a closed game. I might consider 1 or 2 new PCs. We will see once we finally get started likely months and months from the date of this post.
