MET LARP SRD

You are on the path to Suspire, researching and working toward the mythical state of enlightenment known as Golconda. Purchasing the Golconda Seeker merit indicates that you have discovered actual, useful information helping you along the path to Suspire. Your intense efforts to control the Beast have altered your physiology slightly, and as such you gain a slight advantage over your vampiric condition. You emanate a feeling of serenity, a tangible reflection of the weakening of the Beast. Your Storyteller will work with you to determine which specific myths your character has heard and how much knowledge your character possesses about Golconda. To make an attempt to reach Golconda, you need to have at least 4 points of the Lore skill, including Golconda lore. Additionally your Morality must be Humanity, at rating 5 or higher. Although purchasing the merit Golconda Seeker provides your character with clues about achieving Suspire, keep in mind that successfully achieving Golconda is exceptionally rare. The majority of seekers will fail and eventually succumb to their Beasts. Those who fail often turn bitter, watching a new generation foolish enough to try where they have failed.

Choose one of the following benefi ts when you purchase this merit: • You can spend 2 additional Blood points per turn. • You do not need to spend a point of Blood to wake each evening. You also naturally regenerate 1 point of Blood per day, without feeding. • You no longer suffer the penalties of your clan weakness. If your Humanity dips below rating 5, you lose access to the benefits of this merit until you repurchase your Humanity. If your Humanity drops below 4, you must remove this merit entirely, with no refund of XP. Please note that having this merit does not in any way guarantee that you will reach Golconda, as this state is incredibly rare and difficult to achieve. It only denotes that your character is a seeker along the path, with more knowledge than most. For further info rmation regarding Golconda, please see Chapter Seven: Dramatic Systems.
