Character Creation Challenge 10b: Vampire: The Masquerade

Character Creation Challenge 2022

Jonah

Clan: none, ghoul (Brujah blood)
Concept: club security

Full rules for mortals and ghouls are included in the free V5 Companion available on the World Of Darkness homepage. You could also make a character as standard and stop when you get to the vampire-specific steps, but the ghoul rules in particular would be helpful.

Ghouls are living beings given a taste of vampire blood and its power. It stalls the aging process and gives them a little access to their other powers. But it’s addictive, easily burned through, and can affect their emotional and mental wellbeing too. So a ghoul who isn’t servile can make vampires nervous.

Jonah doesn’t answer to any of the coterie directly. His blood comes from Shane’s sire, a more experienced Anarch strategist. And Brujah blood sometimes makes for more free-willed ghouls than most. He’s been assigned to help with the club, and the vampires around are useful, not figures of worship.
