Player Handle: The name or nickname you're known by on the boards. Especially important if you have multiple characters, so we know who is who.

Name: Your character's name.

Gender: Female, Male

Year of Birth: When was the character born

Race: Where in the world do his/her people hail from

Apparent Age: At what age was the character embraced

Clan: Your vampire lineage.

Generation: How distant are you from Caine?

Nature: What defining characteristics he/she has.

Demeanor: How the character appears to the world.

Path: His/her morality - either Humanity or a Path of Enlightenment.

Derangements: Any mental illness he/she may have acquired through their unlife or before their embrace. Mandatory for Malkavians, but other people can have derangements as well.

Appearance: What he/she looks like.

Personality: What can be expected from him/her.

History: A small story to explain who the character is and where he/she is coming from, including who he/she was as a mortal, why they were embraced and by whom, any unusual disciplines or skills they may have acquired are explained here. You do not have to dive into history books for this but please try to be a little accurate.

Haven and Domain: Where does he/she feel safe to sleep?

Sheet: Compile your stats in a way that reflects your character's description. Use the common V:tM rules (Attributes: 7/5/3, Abilities: 13/9/5 etc), then spend freebie points assigned according to the following table:

Years active (torpor does not count) after embrace
0-4030
41-9060
91-170100
171-350175
351-600250
601-850375



Freebie costs are as follows:

Attributes5 per dot
Abilities:2 per dot
Backgrounds1 per dot
Disciplines7 per dot
Virtues2 per dot
Willpower1 per dot
Humanity/Path2 per dot
Secondary magic pathFirst dot 7, others 4
RitualsFree but limited to 2 x blood magic rating and must relate to your path.


Remember to have your story extensive enough to accommodate your choices of points, otherwise your character may run into problems getting approved.
