Although certain Status Traits may not be the original bidding trait in many challenges, they may be counted in total number of traits, much as Quick does not relate to strength-based challenges, but is still counted in total physical traits for that challenge. Tolerated or any such title given to a non-Acknowledged Kindred is not Status, and cannot be used as such. Declaration of status must be accompanied by the name of the granter of the status. Status can be ignored by other Kindred. Another Kindred can choose to ignore some status or all of it.
Exceptions are the same as above.
No Kindred may gain more than one status trait per month. The only exception to this is if the prince of his or her domain chooses to grant them additional status. In such a case, a Kindred may gain two status traits in a given month. This overrides the one status trait per story restriction outlined in Laws Of The Night . Again, the target may choose to ignore Status.
