oh yeah. maybe i should explaine the differnt types of undead a bit.
vampire- gets lowerd costs for dark or death resonances. weakness to light. gains energy for every wound created. gains wilpower through stealth, secrets, and intimidation. branded marks; fangs, pointed ears, glowing eyes, and claws.
mummy- gets lowerd costs for light or death resonances. weakness to fire. gains energy through meditation. gains willpower through victory, leadership, and teaching. branded marks; dry flaky skin to be wound with bandages, long white hair, and black sunken eyes.
zombie- gets lowerd costs for dark or life resonances. weakness to ranged attacks. gains energy through absorbing life (eating under ritual). gains willpower through helping otheres, discovery, and art. branded marks; grey skin, rotted teeth, callouses or moles and random bruising.

all characters should have at least one level in awareness or they wouldn't be able to sense anything.

the resonances:
dark- more attuned to night, and secrets. lower costs for stealth and subterfuge checks at night.
light- more attuned to daytime and strength. lower costs for leadership and meditation checks at day.
death- more attuned to death energy. lower costs for perception and awareness checks towards dead things.
life- more attuned to life energy. lower costs for perception and awareness checks for living things.

other characters you may have if you don't want to be an undead friend, is a ghost hunter or a mundane. ghost hunters will also need awareness levels, but mundanes might not.

any questions?

d10. based roughly on Mage: the Ascension with details changed to fit the setting. the system itself is the same. the character sheet is different.

old. i'm not used to the new rules yet, and if you're that familiar with it to tell the difference then it should have been obvious based on the attributes i selected. as well, mage: the ascension is old, mage: the awakening is new....

i do like the new rules conserning willpower use however. spend a point of willpower to add three dice to your pool. so i'll keep that one.

*shrug* i mix 'n match then. actually, i was kinda hoping for real questions on those things i added that aren't in the books, as opposed to specifics in gameplay. gameplay can be learned later. in character creation those details need to be learned now. i outlined the different undead and resonances.... but i never explained waht a channeler was or the relationship between the ghost and the human. or what an undead friend was in the first place. thes are questions people should be asking, not "what system are you using?"
