Combination disciplines

• Restricted to vampires.
• Clan-specific are restricted to that clan.
  • "Clan-specific" may be interpreted based on canon text.
  • Example: Doubletalk "This is not one of the great, deep secrets of the clan: Some Tremere and Malkavians have also mastered the technique..."
• Others are restricted/disallowed at staff discretion.
• If canon is missing an XP cost, it's 3 XP per prerequisite dot.
• For Awareness checks, use the highest level among its prerequisites.
• If you bought one but it doesn't show up on +sheet, remind staff to set Has Combination Disciplines = 1.

Not in game yet, reviewed on case by case basis

• Probably allowed: Revised era combination disciplines
• Might be allowed: 2nd Edition, Dark Ages: Vampire
• Probably not allowed: 1st Edition, Kindred of the Ebon Kingdom, Vampire the Dark Ages
• Don't even try: Vampire 20th Anniversary or 5th Edition, foreign language quasi official supplements, homebrews
• House rule: If XP cost is missing in the book, it's 3 per prerequisite dot

Individual clarifications:

• Alpha Glint
  • Gangrel rolls (Charisma + Animal Ken + Willpower).
  • If some but not all opponents are Garou (shifters): Gangrel rolls (Charisma + Animal Ken) and (Willpower) separately. Only half their successes from Charisma + Animal Ken (rounded down) count against Garou.
• Doubletalk
  • Merely knowing of the existence of Doubletalk is not enough to detect or understand compressed sentences.
• Instantaneous Transformation
  • A Vicissitude variation is available. Other variations may be +requested.
