No book marks? Are you kidding? It's the 21st century and the pdf technolgy has been around. While it's only 6 bucks there is no reason not to have bookmarks.

My all time favorite clan book and one of the best IMO that White Wolf ever wrote... thank you DriveThruRPG for making it possible to get the PDF version. Very convienient when I want to look something up at a LARP or other game.

Like many people, I've stuck with 2nd ed WOD and this manual, as well as all the other clan manuals, is almost laughably cheap for the extra depth it can add to a personal development of a long-playing character....and I'm paying in South African rands!

The elaboration of the various clans is always helpful and I would recommend anyone looking into these, but as a storyteller first and foremost I definitely wouldn't give this, or any of the clanbooks, to new players. Let them find their feet in the game first, wade through the mysteries with that awesome first-timer wonder and then once they're comfortable and more experienced, let them get stuck into these babies. It doesn't make sense to me to "blow the load" beforehand and they'll appreciate these even more later on.

I think out of all the Camarilla clans, the Tremere guides are essential due to the clans...alternative...method of coming into being and their secretive nature.

Thanks DTRPG!
