Ghoul character creation step-by-step
Note: Ghoul characters may either already be 'working' for someone's vampire character (get their permission first!), or may be 'freelance' ghouls (though this comes with danger and the challenge of obtaining your monthly blood to keep your ghoul status).
1) Choose Concept2) Choose Nature/Demeanor3) Fill out your basic info....name, age, ect. This includes what they look like)4) Allocate your character creation points (Attributes: 6/4/3 (first dot is free) /Abilities: 11/7/4 (These stats start at 0 and cannot exceed 3 before Freebies are spent.) /Advantages: Backgrounds 5/ Disciplines- Ghouls start out with potence as a 'freebie' discipline, and may choose 1 more from either fortitude, celerity, auspex, animalism, or presence if they're free. To have any other discipline a ghoul character must either start the game as the ghoul of an existing vampire character with the appropriate discipline, or a mortal character can
become a ghoul during the events of the RPG.) Virtues 7 (each of these begin with 1 dot automatically)
5) Choose merits and flaws (if using)6) Spend Freebie Points (36) (each blank profile will provide a space where you can show your total number of freebie points and what you chose to spend them on...I WILL check and tally the math XD )
Freebie Point Cost:Disciplines 10 points per dot
Attributes 5 points per dot.
Willpower 1 point per dot.
Abilities 2 points per dot.
Backgrounds 1 point per dot.
Humanity 1 point per dot.
7) Flesh the character out...give us an idea of your character's basic personality, any quirks they might have, and their history. This doesn't have to be a 10 page biography, but a basic overview of who they were and are now.
NOTE: Not required, but I DO encourage players to search online and find a photo or picture that can serve as what your character looks like. This is a great tool for other players to picture your character, and it can be attached or linked to in your character profile once approved.

Quirks: (anything else that makes your character unique...do they always weak pink socks, do they hate classical music?)
