Morality (2nd Edition)

Clarity

Changelings

A changeling's Clarity suffers attacks from disorienting experiences which threaten her ownership over her own perceptions and the stability of her central truths. Severe Clarity attacks can accumulate damage quickly, but the support of a Touchstone can heal that damage more readily than the breaking points of many other Integrity traits. (CTL 2e 107)

Dice	Sample breaking points
1	Acquaintance rejects your experiences, Glamour exhaustion, having promises broken, a day without human contact
2	Respected authority rejects your experiences, psychotropic drugs, breaking promises, significant disorientation, a week without human contact
3	Trusted confidant rejects your experiences, losing a Touchstone, having formal oaths broken, disorienting supernatural influence, two weeks without human contact
4	Thorough "disproof" of your experiences, homicide, breaking formal oaths, recapitulation of the Durance, a month without human contact
5	Systematic psychological torture, premeditated murder, modifying behavior by Glamour, direct confrontation with the True Fae, a year without human contact

Cover

Demons

Demons can sustain multiple Cover ratings at once, depending on their Primum. A Cover rating, rather than representing mental or spiritual welfare, is a psychic projection of identity, associated with a human body the demon adopts. Demons use the thoroughness and consistency of their human identities to deflect notice by the God-Machine, and risk its degredation through spectacular shows of power or gross breaking of the identity's "character."

A demon's Cover mends and grows slowly over time as they live that identity's life. Demons in need of quicker gains can steal the Cover of a forming angel with reconnaissance and support, but most depend on pacts with human beings, promising them occult benefits in exchange for scraps of their life to take as their own, ranging from shallow work relationships, to dear lifelong friendships, to the human's very existence itself.

Harmony

Werewolves

Harmony shifts when breaking points occur in one of two directions. Breaking towards flesh causes the trait to increase, towards spirit to decrease. Harmony's ideal rating is 5, with drawbacks incurred as the character drifts towards the spiritual extreme of 0 or the fleshly extreme of 10. (WTF 2e 96, 104)

Humanity

Vampires

Breaking points are experiences that inculcate increasing levels of detachment from the perspective of the living. Risking detachment feeds the vampire's Bestial, Competitive or Wanton instincts, while dramatic failure causes the vampire to become Jaded.

A vampire can inure herself to a particular type of breaking point, removing its risk of detachment at the cost of developing a bane. A vampire can only develop three banes this way (or two for Clan Mekhet), and suffers a die penalty on future detachment rolls for each bane inured. (VTR 2e 107)

Humanity	Social	Sun	Torpor	Dice	Sample breaking points
10	+2	1L	One night	5	A night without human contact, lies for the Masquerade, spending multiple Vitae in a night
9	+2	1L	One night	5	Witness a meal, superhuman prowess, feeding without consent, supernatural urging, an hour in the sun

7	—	1L	Two nights	4	A week without human contact, grave injury, violence over blood
6	-1	2L	One week	3	Torpor, feeding from children, being in the obituaries, immense physical trauma

1	Chance	4A	Fifty years	0	A decade without human contact, killing a Touchstone, heinous or mass murder
0	Chance	5A	One century	—	You are lost to the Beast.

Integrity

Mortals, Hunters

Breaking points occur when the character violates his personal moral code or acceptable societal bounds, witnesses something traumatic or terrifying, or is the victim of a supernatural assault or shock. The severity of the situation and the character's current Integrity apply situational modifiers to a roll, and a Condition is incurred. Common breaking points leave a character Guilty, Shaken or Spooked, while dramatic failure can cause the character to suffer Broken, Fugue or Madness. At lower levels of Integrity, a Hunter lives with the Persistent Vigilant or Merciless Condition as they become more absorbed in their Vigil.

Memory

Mummies

Mummies must fight to rebuild their sense of will and identity, clearing up their memory through the weight of ages. Affirming their soul and unearthing the truth of their past earns the Reminisce Beats necessary to build their Memory, while self-denial and submission of will provokes breaking points, and the Rite of Return weighs down their Memory with each new Descent into living history. (MTC 2e 161)

Dice	Sample breaking points
5	Concealing your identity, obedience to Judges to preserve Sekhem, suppressing the will of your decree
3	Destroying evidence of your Iremite past, obstructing another mummy's search for Memory, destroying a vessel without witnessing its memory
1	Abandoning a meret to serve the Judges, deliberately shortening the Descent, destroying personal keepsakes of your mortal life

Pilgrimage

Prometheans

Prometheans' Morality trait in Second Edition begins at one dot and measures their progress towards grasping the New Dawn. Steps forward on the Pilgrimage only occur on the resolution of milestones to mortality, while steps backward can occur through obviating milestones, causing death intentionally or en masse through supernatural means, or stepping off the Pilgrimage onto the Refinement of Flux.

Satiety

Beasts

Beasts treat their Satiety not like a condition of wellbeing but a resource that ebbs and flows. Beasts under Lair 4 lose a point a week, while Lair 4+ Beasts lose a point every few days, depending on their rating. Beyond that, many of their abilities require or significantly benefit from the expenditure of Satiety, and different levels of Satiety equip them better for different situations. The extremes of Satiety come with dangerous drawbacks, while a rating in the middle opens their vulnerability to adversarial Heroes, meaning the ideal conditions for Satiety lie between the middle and either extreme, either high-ish or low-ish.

Satiety is regained through acts that sate the Beast's Hunger. The amount of Satiety gained is proportional to the extremity, harm or spectacle of the feeding. (BTP 320)

Satiety	Condition	Effects
10	Slumbering	The Beast's Horror retreats from wakefulness, leaving the Beast unable to access its power, becoming as vulnerable as an ordinary human. The Beast can't spend Satiety and doesn't lose it over time, but can end the Horror's slumber through an extreme shock.
9	Gorged	The Beast loses Supernatural Tolerance against mental or emotional abilities, but can open Primordial Pathways to a particular Lair Chamber with ease.
8
7
6	Sated	The Beast is neither well fed nor desperate enough to deflect a Hero's Anathema.
5
4
3	Starving	The Beast's Primordial Pathways do not open as easily, but she adds her Lair to her Power rating while merged with her Horror.
2
1
0	Ravenous	The Beast does not naturally heal lethal damage, and suffers a point of it each day she remains Ravenous. She can't use Nightmares, and can't regain Willpower except through actions that would normally grant Satiety. She can't raise her Satiety except through a feat that would normally reap a dramatic gain.

Stability

Deviants

The Broken degrade over time, the Scars of their transformation aggravated by rebellious Variations and by withdrawing from the obsessions by which they gird their sense of self. Pursuing those obsessions can reverse this gradual breakdown. Deviants who grow too unstable never survive the day, and often, neither do anyone around them.

Synergy

Bound

The changing empathy and relationship between Bound and geist is a measure of both the integrity of these joined souls and a measure of their power. Only when the two grow in understanding of each other can they use the powers of death to their greatest effect.

Wisdom

Mages

A mage's Wisdom is the spiritual quality that contains his Supernal power from overrunning itself, and is threatened by acts of hubris. The loss of Wisdom is accompanied by Megalomaniacal or Rampant impulses.

When a spell courts hubris, a mage can inure himself to that spell. Casting that spell no longer threatens hubris, but it gains a permanent two dice of Paradox risk. A mage can inure himself to up to his Gnosis in spells. (MTA 2e 88)

Wisdom	Tier	Long-Term Nimbus	Dice	Sample acts of hubris
10	Enlightened	Strong connections	5	Petty spellcasting, affecting innocents by your works
9
8
7	Understanding	Medium connections	3	Obvious magical displays before Sleepers, spiritual self-mutilation, releasing severe Paradoxes, overwriting or binding the will of a sapient being, calculated murder or maiming
6
5
4
3	Falling	Weak connections	1	Deals with the Abyss, destroying Awakened souls, allowing a summoned Supernal being to be dissolved by the Fallen World, impulsive or unanticipated murder
2
1
0	Enraptured	Contagious beyond sympathy	—	Your power has blown out all self-control and perspective.

Anchors (2nd Edition)

Virtue and Vice

Most human characters' sense of selfhood and drive are reinforced by a Virtue and a Vice, or with certain Merits even multiples. A character's Virtue is a higher ideal or heroic drive they must push themselves to extremes to live up to, restoring all lost Willpower. A character's Vice is a quick fix, easy comfort, or instinctive defense to fall back on, but only recovers a single point of Willpower when indulged.

Held by: Mortals, mages, hunters, demons, and various lesser templates and ephemeral entities.

Sample Virtues: Competitive, Generous, Just, Loyal (CofD 27), Ambitious, Courageous, Honest, Hopeful, Loving, Patient, Trustworthy (MTA 2e 212)

Sample Vices: Ambitious, Arrogant, Competitive, Greedy (CofD 28), Addictive, Corrupt, Cruel, Deceitful, Dogmatic, Hasty, Hateful, Pessimistic (MTA 2e 212)

Touchstones

Some people transformed by the supernatural need grounding to remain connected to the things that gird their soul, or what's become of it. They attach to people, places, objects or ideas with personal importance, and these Touchstones provide the perspective to ground their inhuman center. Bonding or expressing their relationship refreshes a point of Willpower, while dramatic lengths taken to preserve a Touchstone restore all lost Willpower.

Touchstones can be lost through a lack of content, severed relationships, the predations of time, or the simple, classic method of murder, leaving a monster unhinged until they form another meaningful connection to take the place of the lost.

Held by: Vampires, werewolves, changelings, bound, hunters, mummies, and deviants

Vampire: Mask and Dirge

To stave off psychic fatigue, vampires construct pretenses, find roles for themselves, and develop facades. They present a Mask to the world, a false place as a relatable member of society, and shape their own Dirge, a place for themselves among monsters and corpses.

Both Mask and Dirge can refresh either a small quantity of Willpower for little incident, or all lost reserves through extreme resorts, by acting to preserve the Mask or play out the Dirge.

Held by: Vampires

Sample Masks and Dirges: Authoritarian, Child, Competitor, Conformist, Conspirator, Courtesan, Cult Leader, Deviant, Follower, Guru, Idealist, Jester, Junkie, Martyr, Masochist, Monster, Nomad, Nurturer, Perfectionist, Penitent, Questioner, Rebel, Scholar, Social Chameleon, Spy, Survivor, Visionary (VTR 2e 84), Collector, Meddler, Provocateur (TY 17)

Sample Humanity Touchstones: Ex, Former Partner, Friend with Benefits, Gravesite, High School Sweetheart, House of Birth, Intrepid Detective, Murderer, One That Got Away, Orphan, Spouse, Terminal Parent, Therapist, Victim's Lover, Witness (VTR 2e 88)

Werewolf: Blood and Bone

Werewolves refresh themselves through their internal dichotomy, between the wolf and the man, the instinctive predator and the rational actor, the feeling of living and the meaning to their life. The Blood keeps the body moving, and the Bone gives it direction. The Bone finds, and the Blood claims.

Both Blood and Bone can refresh either a small amount of Willpower through a small stress or setback, or full reserves through calamity or great costs spent.

Held by: Werewolves

Sample Bloods: Alpha, Challenger, Destroyer, Fox, Monster, Soldier (WTF 2e 86), Berserker (DE 163)

Sample Bones: Community Organizer, Cub, Guru, Hedonist, Lone Wolf, Wallflower (WTF 2e 86)

Sample Flesh Touchstones: Abuser, Ex, Old Gang, Parents, Religion, Sponsor (WTF 2e 87)

Sample Spirit Touchstones: Ambitious Totem, Buddy Spirit, Future Self, Locus, Lune, Prey, Wilds (WTF 2e 87)

Promethean: Elpis and Torment

As the Pilgrimage touches the psychology of the Created, they each push forward through what wonder or yearning fixes their thoughts on the New Dawn, and what half-formed flaw holds them back from grasping it.

Both Elpis and Torment can refresh either a single point or full complement of Willpower. Unlike many Anchors, the Elpis isn't stoked by actions, but experiences. Merely witnessing one of the living recall the Promethean's Elpis restores a point, while having that feeling vibrantly roused oneself refills it all. The Torment Anchor is expressed through the extremity of actions and consequences, but can also risk Torment, the Promethean fit of uncontrollable humours.

Held by: Prometheans

Sample Elpides: Courage, Drive, Empathy, Fear, Fury, Inspiration, Joy, Love, Sorrow, Pain (PTC 2e 106)

Sample Torments: Alienated, Awkward, Dejected, Logical, Merciless, Methodical, Obsessed, Paranoid, Passionate, Naive (PTC 2e 107)

Changeling: Needle and Thread

The identity of a changeling, escaped from Arcadia, is more slippery than that of the mortal human she once was. She finds refuge in the familiar to gird her resolve: familiar actions, roles, labels and rituals to wind herself around, and that shapeless inner color of drive, feeling and association, without which all would be empty. Her good old Needle. Her most plentiful Thread.

Both Needle and Thread can refresh either a point of Willpower, through simple exertion and reinforcement, or the full supply, by putting one's heart on the line.

Held by: Changelings, fetches, and hedge ghosts

Sample Needles: Bon Vivant, Commander, Composer, Counselor, Daredevil, Dynamo, Protector, Provider, Scholar, Storyteller, Teacher, Traditionalist, Visionary (CTL 2e 95)

Sample Threads: Acceptance, Anger, Family, Friendship, Hate, Honor, Joy, Love, Memory, Revenge (CTL 2e 97)

Sample Clarity Touchstones: Best Friend, Family, Fetch, Fling, Lost Love, Occultist, Private Investigator, Therapist, True Love, Your New Home, Your Old Home (CTL 2e 98)

Geist: Root and Bloom

The Bound are dead, and still they live. Their ghostly heart is moved by honoring the death at the Root of their condition as much as by the second life that is the Bloom that rose from their grave soil. Their Root pulls them to face the communities of the dead and remember the Sin-Eaters number among them. Their Bloom asks them to treasure their return to the living world and those who could have lost them.

Both Root and Bloom can refresh either a point of Willpower when either life or death must overshadow the other, or fully restore Willpower when they impel serious risks and passions.

Held by: Bound

Sample Roots and Blooms: Advocate, Antihero, Casual, Cowl, Enabler, Gardener, Pollyanna, Saved, Servant, Surrogate (GTS 2e 82)

Sample Synergy Touchstones: 9 to 5, Albatross, First Friend, House Keys, Inherited Anchor, Murder Weapon, New Neighbor, Our Song, Replacement Love, Roadside Memorial (GTS 2e 84)

Mummy: Balance and Burden

The Arisen trudge endlessly across the expanse of time. Their identity sometimes falls away from their clutches. As they persist, their character shows in how they weather the ages: the Burden, their greatest weight of pain and weakness, and the Balance, the value that justifies the strength to carry that weight.

Both Balance and Burden can refresh a point of Willpower in a moment's affirmation, or restore all Willpower in a triumph of Balance or a steep fall into Burden.

Held by: Mummies and shuankhsen

Sample Balances: Courageous, Devoted, Diligent, Faithful, Generous, Introspective, Just, Noble, Peaceful, Resilient, Righteous, Trustworthy, Truthful (MTC 2e 102)

Sample Burdens: Accusing, Careless, Chaotic, Cruel, Dominant, Forgetful, Fragile, Hysterical, Isolated, Rageful, Resentful, Selfish, Stagnant (MTC 2e 104), Avenger, Destroyer, Zealot (MTC 2e 236)

Sample Memory Touchstones: Budding Historian, Confidante, Court Justice, Doubting Lawrence, Dutiful Clerk, Epitome of Life, Firebrand Cultist, Mirror of the Ages, Shadow of an Old Flame (MTC 2e 163)

Beast: Life and Legend

Beasts split their selfhood into two strengths: the human and the inhuman. Their Life speaks to who they know and care about. It's common sense, modesty and compromise. Their Legend speaks to what they feel gestating deep within, leaking out from within their dreams. It's power, pride, and an abject lack of apology.

Both Life and Legend can refresh either a single point or full supply of Willpower, based on the scale of act and risk involved when cleaving to it.

Held by: Beasts and heroes

Sample Lives: Parental, Shy, Cautious, Loyal, Honest, Selfless (BTP 86)

Sample Legends: Judgmental, Relentless, Unexpected, Seductive, Vicious, Watchful (BTP 86)

Deviant: Loyalty and Conviction

The Broken have lost the ability to define their own independence to the spiritual damage of their Divergence. They can only hang their identity and spiritual endurance on their strongest relationships. They cling to certain friends and loved ones with fierce Loyalty, and pursue hateful vendettas with a Conviction that can only be satisfied by suffering and death.

Renegades refresh a point of Willpower when their pursuit of a Conviction Touchstone progresses, and recover all Willpower when they stand dramatically by a Loyalty Touchstone. Devoted reverse this.

Held by: Deviants

Sample Loyalty Touchstones: Childhood Friend, Co-Worker, Ex-Lover, Frenemy, Mentee, Partner in Crime, Research Assistant, Roommate (DTR 84)

Sample Conviction Touchstones: Company Man, Cultist, Operating Theater, Progenitor, Recruiter, Thief (DTR 85)
