Character Creation

There is no excess experience. If you create a character using any of the experience tiers and you do not use all of the available experience, that XP does NOT carry over. Once the character is approved and the player begins posting for that character, then any experience that was not used during character creation is gone.  It cannot be carried over and used later on to add to any experience given for the month.

So, please make sure you have used the amount of experience you are either allotted or you wish to have on your character before it is submitted

Only 45% of your character creation experience may be used to purchase supernatural advantages. This would include: Blood Potency, Gnosis, Primal Urge, and Wyrd. It also includes: Disciplines, Arcana, Gifts, and Contracts. If more then %45 of your character creation experience is allocated to these supernatural advantages, your character will be denied.



We now have Character  Sheets that may be used for submission. The links to these sheets are located at the top right of your screen.

Characters may also be submitted to the appropriate venue Storyteller,  however, if you choose to do your submission this way, we ask that you please use the format below.

note:  this is a sample Requiem character, change Template-specific items to the appropriate venue (i.e. Blood Potency to Gnosis, etc.)

Players may not just buy Resources or Status with their experience after character creation. If a player wants either raised, they must work at it in character and then they may spend the Experience to up their Resources.  Status can only be raised through the Status threads.
