Loresheets

From VTM Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Loresheets are specific advantages tied to a character's background either through their lineage or their history. When looking at loresheets the players should consider how to tie them into their character's background and the plausibility of them alongside their storyteller. Some loresheets require the character to be of a specific clan, especially Descendent loresheets, and others require certain cults. Each level of a loresheet must be bought separately, meaning that having level 3 in a loresheet does not mean the character also has levels 1 and 2. [1] All loresheets contain a dot value from 1 to 5.
