I thought it was a great addition to the first book lately I find myself refering to it more than the Masquarade. The additional Clans help make you be able to expand and be more creative the additional attricutes, traits, etc. also help create a more indepth character with many new quirks and what else makes a good character?

If you really want to play almost any of White Wolf's games, you really should buy this book. It has beautiful artwork, (especially Max Fellwater, my fav), and a wonderful listing of secondary abilities, which ANY character should have on hand, Vampire, or not, when making your character.

This is a remarkable book and offers the most comprehensive list of Secondary Abilities that White Wolf has ever had the good sense to produce. Everything from Acrobatics to Wyrm Lore is present and I haven't even mentioned the Independent Clans and Bloodlines yet. All I can say is...buy this book if you like detailed White Wolf Games...even if you're running Changeling...just trust me...pick this one up.

I ordered this book knowing that it was used, and would likely have some mild damage. Though it was not as pristine as a new book, there was very little wear on the binding, and was exactly as described. Shipping was very reasonable and arrived before expected. I would definitely order from this bookseller again.
The book itself is a great resource for any of us still clinging to the Old World of Darkness game environment. It has a number of familiar merits and flaws, as well as basic information on some of the bloodlines. The secondary skills section is great for creating more specific characters, and fills in some of the skills that older vampires would have that are not covered in the main book.

Amazing and so very helpfull! The traits and merits help add details to your creations like never before. A must have!

This book is a great resource for anyone playing Vampire Masquerade. It does not replace the core rulebook, but augments a lot of the core rules. It expands on the merits and flaws available for characters and provides a lot of background on the society of the kindred. It really helped me to understand some of the more complicated clans (such as the Tremere) as well as giving me a leg up on political intrigue by understanding the games of status and prestation. This book can add a lot of dimension to the Masquerade game.

This book is a real pearl! If you're playing Vampire: the Masquerade you can get along without it, but I recommend buying it anyway for it adds a whole lot to the game, especially the Flaws and Merits give a lot. And, do you really want to be left in the dark about the neutral clans? Also, if you like to include a lot of combat in your chronicles you'll be pleased to see the very well-done review of the weapons they left out in V:tM, from machine guns to throwing stones.
