| + | **Building Human Ghouls**\\ | ||
| + | Now, these mechanics are all well and good, but at this point, you may be asking yourself how exactly to build a Ghoul for your PC. The good news is, it’s as easy as building a regular character...the bad news is that it’s just as mentally taxing, especially when it comes to those freebies.\\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | The Character Creation process for a Mortal Ghoul begins in the Ghouls and Revenants V20 book or the V20 Core book, and will walk you through all the necessary steps for creating your Ghoul Retainers. | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | * Ghouls may never have more than 3 dots in any one Background (ex. a limit of Resources 3). This rule is to ensure that NPCs never outstrip the potential of what a PC can accomplish during the course of play.\\ | ||
| + | * Ghouls may never acquire, nor purchase over time, the Majordomo or Retainers backgrounds.\\ | ||
| + | * Ghouls may never have more than 10 Freebie Points invested into Backgrounds at the moment of creation.\\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | **Building Animal Ghouls**\\ | ||
| + | The following mechanics do not differ in any great amount from those previous, however they do concern themselves with a far different calibre of servant; that of the eponymous raven, or perhaps wolf...or maybe even panther, that your Kindred decided to call ally in their nighttime activities - or perhaps even daytime ones, as well.\\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | The Character Creation process for an Animal Ghoul starts just as it would for a Mortal Ghoul, using the details listed in the Ghouls and Revenants or Core book - however, there are a few key differences that should be pointed out:\\ | ||
| + | \\ | ||
| + | * Animal ghouls, for obvious reasons, may never purchase “Social” Backgrounds; | ||
| + | * Animal ghouls, ostensibly, are not going to be as smart as the average human - however, that is obviously subject to change as the nature of being a Ghoul enhances much of what a living creature is naturally capable. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Contingencies**\\ | ||
| + | This all said, there is one very important thing to keep in mind when you are creating, and further running your Ghouls. | ||

| + | Additionally, | ||

| + | ====== Retainers that are not Ghouled ====== | ||
| + | Mortals that are Retainers and not ghouled follow the same requirements that Human ghouls do with a couple exceptions: | ||
| + | * They do not have disciplines | ||
