Path of Death & the Soul
The Path of Death & the Soul (also called the “Path of Bones”) is devoted to understanding the nature of the immortal soul and unraveling the mysteries of death. Its followers seek to learn as much about the spirit world as possible, in order to comprehend the purpose life, death, and undeath. They believe that the soul is constant and eternal, forever experiencing a cycle of death and rebirth — a cycle which vampires have somehow, inexplicably, escaped. To understand death, they must divest themselves of the trappings of life. Emotion is the enemy of logic. Death is not to be feared. System: You do not gain Beast traits when performing a sin, as long as you commit that sin while actively seeking to understand the mysteries of death or the nature of the soul. If you voluntarily ignore an opportunity to study death, you gain Beast traits as though you committed a level 1 sin. If you voluntarily act on emotion or show regret, remorse, or empathy, you gain Beast traits as though you committed a level 4 sin. This path is also called the Path of Bones, and followers of this path are called “Gravediggers.” Members of the Giovanni clan can purchase this merit for 2 points, rather than 3.
