Vampire: The Requiem Second Edition

From publisher blurb: Updated and revised core rule book for Vampire: The Requiem. Tonight, you become one of the Kindred, the beautiful and the damned who hide behind our ordinary world. Driven by a hunger like fire, you will struggle to maintain your humanity while immersed in a vicious society of monsters. Featuring Blood and Smoke: the Strix Chronicle. The sharks you swim with aren’t the only ones out there. Your Kindred are the smart, sexy vampires of pop culture, but you are haunted by the Strix -- the grisly, demon-possessed corpses of folklore. They slaughtered the Night-Senate of Rome, drowned the tombs of the Princes of Alexandria, and warred with the Plague Lords of Transylvania. Tonight, they’re loose on the streets of your city. Time for the sinners to become the saints, and the hunters to become the prey. Vampire: the Requiem 2nd Edition contains: A complete guide to playing a vampire in the World of Darkness. No other rulebooks are required, and the rules are fully compatible with The God-Machine Chronicle. Reimagined clans, covenants, and supernatural powers to create your perfect monster... and her friends and foes. A first-ever look at vampire domains around the world, from Tokyo to Berlin. Twenty unique Strix, as well as complete rules for building your own.
