Cliath and pup garou *only* are accepted.
Also, for all starting characters, at this time I would like to stress that no starting 5's will be allowed without ample background history reguarding the area you wish it in. And the only 5 in appearance granted is if the character has been changed by some sort of Tzimisce, which is doubtful for Garou, or other type char, and that would have to be very detailed out in history as well.
Kinfolk backgrounds are: Allies, Contacts, Equipment, Favors, Mentor, Purebreed, Renown, and Resources; hey may NOT have either rank or gnosis under normal circumstances, and Numina is subject to strict storyteller approval. Character backgrounds/preludes are strongly encouraged and are required when using merits and flaws; Kinfolk may use the merits/flaws in the Kinfolk book or the applicable ones from the WtA 2nd Edition Players Guide (see below).
There will be no Cross-Genres of Kinfolk in Mortality Mocked (i.e. Kinfolk mages, etc.) at character creation.
Merits and Flaws. By the book on this, too. You can take all the flaws you want, but only 7 points of them can be added to freebies. Merits can only be bought with freebies. The following merits are not allowed:
Luck
True Faith
We will only be permitting the use of each Merit or Flaw once. Example: the flaw Enemy. Could only be used one time no matter how many enemies you have. But may be raised by how many points you purchase it for.
As for the rest of Character Creation, it's by the book. You get a total of 15 freebies, plus what ever (up to 7) points in flaws you take. Remember, if you get something like Dark Fate, expect your character to be dying by some incredible occurance. Hunted.. expect it to happen.
