Thread: Vampire: The Masquerade - Boston by Night - Character Profiles

Post your character's here for approval, using the following character sheet template. For the sake of nostalgia, lets do dots like this thanks mystictiger, hehe. Or you can just put in numbers, your choice. Name Age Concept Nature Demeanor Clan Generation Sire Attributes Physical Strength , Dexterity , Stamina Social Charisma , Manipulation , Appearance Mental Perception , Wits , Intelligence Abilities Talents Skills Knowledges' Backgrounds Virtues Conscience Self-Control Courage Humanity Willpower Disciplines MeritsFlaws Background Write a brief background story. Juicy details I can use in the story will be much appreciated. Image What does your character look like? Distinguishing characteristics? Personality What is your character like? Guidelines There are a few minor restrictions in play, to prevent power gaming and promote team balance. Clan, Generation Sire Fill in the clan you would like to be embraced into, but leave generation and sire blank. If you want to take the gamble and let the game decide for you, leave clan blank as well. Available clans are Brujah, Gangrel, Nosferatu, Tremere, Toreador and Ventrue. Attributes Use the following allocation of dots for attributes. 6 5 3 All attributes start at 1 dot, free of charge. Abilities Use the following allocation of dots for abilities. 11 7 4 The standard rules for character creation apply, meaning no ability may be purchased at more than three dots at this point. You may increase them further with freebie points, but I will need justification for doing so. You dont become among the worlds best by chance or practicing in mommy's garage. Backgrounds You get 4 dots to distribute on backgrounds. Vampire specific backgrounds will only gain effect when you are embraced. If you have left clan blank, do the same with generation. Otherwise max 3 dots of Generation. Resources at max 3 dots. Fame at max 3 dots. Influence at max 1 dot. Backgrounds may also be earned through rp. Virtues You may distribute up to 6 dots on virtues, with each starting at 1 dot. Humanity equals Conscience Self-Control and Willpower equals Courage, though these ratings may also be improved with freebie points. Willpower is restricted to max 7 dots. Conscience must be at least 2 dots and Humanity at least 4 dots. Disciplines This category is left blank for now. Earn your powers through rp. MeritsFlaws Only merits and flaws found in the 20th Anniversary Rulebook are allowed, with some restrictions. Any and all merits and flaws require approval. Many merits and flaws have a mechanical effect. Since we are going without dice rolling, they will simply make certain actions easier for your character, which may be taken into consideration when writing a post. Iron Will is banned. Hidden Diablerie is banned. Unbondable is banned. True Faith is banned. Glowing Eyes is banned. Then there are a lot that just does not make any sense, like Red List or Former Prince, etc. Will add other when I have a chance to browse through the book. Again, vampire specific merits and flaws will only gain effect when you are embraced. Freebie Points As usual you receive 15 freebie points to round out your character. Points costs are as following. Attributes 5 points per dot. Abilities 2 points per dot. Backgrounds 1 point per dot. Virtues 2 points per dot. Humanity 1 point per dot. Willpower 2-5 1 point per dot. Willpower 6-7 2 points per dot. Experience You wont receive experience points, ever. Instead you may improve your character, particularly backgrounds and disciplines, through the course of the game. It is up to you to find and seize these opportunities. A few things to consider. Your character must be at least 18 years old, preferably 21. It must be able to function in society and work in a group. No law enforcement officers and no psycopathssociopaths. And under no circumstances should your character have knowledge of or prior dealings with the supernatural. You will just rob yourself of the fun of exploring it. I think that's everything. Please dont use this thread for chatting. If you have questions, please post them in the OOC thread or pm me directly, instead of posting them here, so this thread remains quick and easy to navigate.
