This book was exactly what I was hoping for. There are expanded rules for character generation, including rules for creating infected, shapeshifters, changelings, sapient critters like pixies (a personal favorite), and various subspecies of the original five races. They even brought back the point-buy system which some may remember as the Build Point system from 4e, except this time it's 100% karma, which I think streamlines the process. As usual, the in-character descriptions were entertaining and informative, particularly the part written by a vampire and the one written by a Mr Johnson. Those parts both gave me a much better understanding of the way the sixth world interacts with these types of characters. If you like 5e, you'll like this expansion.
