Vampire: The Masquerade Player's Guide (5th Ed)

CHILDREN OF CAINE The children of the night – what games they play! And what games can we play with them? Vampires have lurked among us since the first cities rose nameless by the Euphrates. They command mighty powers and strange magics, they hunt in singular ways, they even flock together when times demand it. This book collects new character-building options, powers, guides for playing together and alone and virtually, and new ways to use the old rules of Vampire: The Masquerade. The Players Guide is the perfect companion to the core Vampire: The Masquerade rulebook!

New systems and advantages for coteries, including clan coterie merits for each of the 13 great clans plus Caitiff, Duskborn, and Salubri. Revisits all aspects of character and coterie creations, including streamlined guidance for new or experienced players.
