Title: Help with a Pseudo-Vampire Build
Post by: Myrddhin on August 08, 2010, 07:22:54 PM

One my players wants to play as a Red Court Infected, but

(click to show/hide)

is slightly put off by the events of Changes

and so I've been toying with the idea of a new kind of partial vampire.

The Idea: A Ritualist, or Thaumaturgist, finds a suitable demonic entity and binds it into their mind/onto their soul/etc so that they can tap into its powers to enhance their own. In a way, it is sort of like turning yourself into a walking, talking hexenwulf belt.

The Build:

Ritual (Diabolism) [-2]
The Sight [-1]
Soulgaze [-0]
Human Form [+1] (symbolic of turning over the "heavy lifting" to the demon so as to tap into its powers)
-Demonic Co-Pilot [-1]
-Blood Drinker [-1]
-Feeding Dependency (Blood) [+1]
--Inhuman Recovery [-2]
--The Catch [+1] is holy stuff.
--Inhuman Speed [-2]
--Inhuman Strength [-2]

Refresh Cost: -8

The Questions:

Does having Demonic Co-Pilot under Human Form seem correct?

Does the overall concept seem sound?

You could also go with one of the other, unnamed Vampire Courts. Whites, Reds, Blacks, Jades, and 3 others according to Jim. Supposedly there were seven Vampire Courts, but only the Reds, Whites, and Blacks really got popular. So you could throw together any kind of vampire you want, really. Or, the character could go with a Red Infectee, but a young one. Then, if the spoilerific changes come by, he or she can still go on.
