House Rules/Ghoul

House Rules Ghoul "Of all that is written, I love only what a person has written with his own blood." -Friedrich Nietzsche

Domitor All ghouls must have Domitor set on their sheet. This may be set to "NPC". It is recommended (but not required) that Ghoul PCs have an off-stage, statless NPC domitor. Discipline level is limited by Domitor (Background) regardless of PC or NPC domitor (WW2021/71). Domitor (Background):0-3: Each discipline is limited to 1 dot Domitor (Background):4: Each discipline is limited to 2 dots Domitor (Background):5: Each discipline is limited to 3 dots Domitor (Background) can be purchased like any other background. Embrace Disciplines are retained when a Ghoul is embraced. However, if the Ghoul has dots in a restricted discipline and Clan changes, those dots must be moved into a Common or clan-appropriate Proprietary or Restricted discipline. e.g. Sponge is a Ghoul of Clan:Samedi with Thanatosis:2. Through a cruel twist of fate he's embraced Clan:Toreador. Sponge must remove his Thanatosis:2 and take a discipline like Celerity:2 or Obfuscate:2 If Sponge were embraced into Clan:Followers of Set, he would be able to take Serpentis:2 Ghoul (verb) For regular Mortals (ie, not Mortal+), getting ghouled IC is free. Other splats must purchase the Ghoul 5-point merit. The following are capable of being ghouled: Race:Mortal Race:Mortal+/Sorcerer-Psychic (Post-chargen only) Race:Mage Tends to interfere with gaining Arete (MtA Revised 296) Race:Mortal+/Possessed (Type:Fomor, Type:Kami) Post-chargen and PC-Domitor only for Type:Kami, and even then only for Kami with human or animal host bodies (you can't ghoul plants). Fomor Ghouls are nearly unaffected by the Blood Bond unless they have high Autonomy, and they tend to frenzy a lot. See the Possessed house rules page. Race:Mortal+/Kinain Race:Changeling Race:Mortal+/Kinfolk Race:Bygone (on a case by case basis, explicit staff approval required) See Also: Cgen, Buying Disciplines, XP Costs Miscellaneous All ghouls must have Clan set on their sheet. Upon becoming a ghoul (Cgen or IC), the Ghoul gets Potence:1, and 1 dot of an in-clan discipline. If Potence IS an in-clan discipline, and the ghoul has at least 4 points in the Domitor background, they can put both dots into Potence if they so desire. Ghouls may not have Thaumaturgy.
