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. Bob is a Ghoul of Clan:Samedi with Thanatosis:2. Through a cruel twist of fate he's embraced Clan:Toreador. Bob must remove his Thanatosis:2 and take a discipline like Celerity:2 or Obfuscate:2
- If Bob 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.
- Ghouls via merit have effective 3 in each virtue for purposes of things like frenzy checks.
- The following are capable of being ghouled:
- Race:Mortal
- Race:Mortal+/Sorcerer-Psychic (Post-chargen only)
- 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). Ghouling a Kami will permanently put the Domitor at risk 3 towards everyone with Faction:Gaian that finds out about the transgression. An IC post will be made by staff to Gaian BBoards to represent the spirits TELLING all locals of Faction:Gaian what happened and who did it. You have been warned.)
- Fomor Ghouls are nearly unaffected by the Blood Bond unless they have high Autonomy, and they tend to frenzy a lot. Powerful, but unstable.
- Race:Mortal+/Kinain
- Race:Mortal+/Kinfolk

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.
