House Rules

PCs

• You are allowed 1 Supernatural PC of EITHER the Vampire type OR Second Inquisition type (for these purposes, all SI PCs are considered "supernatural" regardless of whether they use Arcane Arts or Special Weapons)

• You are allowed as many Standard Mortals as you can reasonably essay.

• You are allowed 1 Feature Mortal, so long as said PC does not create a Conflict of Interest with your Supernatural PC.

LORESHEETS

• A relatively obscure rule in Cults of the Blood Gods allows characters with a bloodline Loresheet (at this point, just the various Hecata bloodlines) to purchase advantages from both their Bloodline loresheet and a metaplot loresheet - to make sure there's parity in applications, we're sticking to each character just having one loresheet. If you're playing a bloodline, you have the option of a bloodline discipline spread and the option to choose that bloodline's loresheet as your character's bit of plot from out of the list of available choices.

PC DEATH

• PC death will happen on our game. It should be viewed as an opportunity for personal growth, and to make a meaningful impact on our shared Story.

• PC death will have lingering and/or persistent consequences on the Narrative as appropriate, played out by our Storytellers

• PvE, PvSPC

  • If your PC dies from a Story event or an SPC while participating in a Chronicle, and you don't create OOC drama from the IC death, you will be eligible to carry over 3/4 of your accumulated XP to apply to a new PC.

• PvP

  • All PvP will be Storyteller sanctioned.

  • If your PC dies in PvP, as the victim, and you don't create OOC drama from the IC death, you will be eligible to carry over 1/2 of your accumulated XP to apply to a new PC.

  • If your PC dies in PvP, as the aggressor, and you don't create OOC drama from the IC death, you will be eligible to carry over 1/4 of your accumulated XP to apply to a new PC.

  • OOC drama from the IC death results in 0 XP carry over to a new PC.

XP

XP can be accumulated in game by your PC in a variety of ways:

• XP for time spent online and IC on grid (aka time xp)

• XP for RP with other PCs (aka +vote xp)

• XP for attempting to unlock "achievement opportunities" located on grid - whether they result in success or failure (aka quest xp)

• XP for participating in a Chronicle (aka ST xp)

• XP for achieving a Personal Milestone, or supporting another PC's story while they achieve one of theirs (aka +nom xp)
