Character Point Value

• 100-150 would produce a weak vampire. This value is suitable for "normal" vampires much that 0-50 is suitable for normal humans.
• 200-250 would produce a vampire roughly comparable to a starting WW character. The lower end (200ish) might be slightly weaker (depending on how you spend your points) while the upper end (250ish) would be slightly stronger. This is a good range for starting characters.
• 500 points would produce a very powerful vampire, such as the ruler of a large city or the founder of a bloodline.
• 1000 points would produce a powerful vampire even elders would avoid.

Vampire Specific Advantages
Blood Attributes [12/level can only be purchased as part of Blood Potency] - Vampires may spend blood points (up to their maximum) for a +2 bonus per blood point to ST or HT for that second. Vampires may spend blood points (up to their maximum) for a +1 bonus per blood point to DX or Speed for that second. Vampires that can spend multiple blood points can mix and match these bonuses freely.

Blood Healing [30 points included in Vampire Template] - Vampires may heal 2 HP per blood point spent. This normally takes one second, unless they are healing aggravated damage in which case each expenditure requires a full night of rest.

Blood Pool [Varies, only increased by Blood Potency] - A vampire starts with 10 Blood Points that can only be used at a rate of 1 Blood Point per second. This may only be increased by the Blood Potency Advantage advantages (detailed later).

Blood Potency [Varies] - In 4th edition generations are replaced with blood potency. Potency can increase naturally (plus one step per 50 years) or decrease (minus one step per 25 years in torpor). Characters start with Blood Potency 1, but may increase it.

Disciplines [25 per level per discipline] -

Herd [Ally Limitation] - This is a special case of an ally group. Apply a -50% to the final cost if the ally group is only good for sustenance.

Path [+10 points per +1] - Path reflects the vampire's ability to control his inner beast. It adds to the resistance roll (normally 12) for Courage (Phobias), Conscience (Berserk), Early Riser (Nocturnal), and Self-Control (Uncontrollable Appetite).
Path-Courage (Rotscheck, Phobias) [3 points per +1] -
Path-Conscience (Berserk) [3 points per +1] -
Path-Early Riser ("Resist" Nocturnal) [1 point per +1]] -
Path-Self Control (Uncontrollable Appetite) [3 points per +1]] -

Unusual Background (Discipline) [25 per extra discipline] - Vampires start access with to three different disciplines, though they many vampires learn from more paths. Note that some disciplines may be restricted.
