Carthian Lawyer

(••)

Vampire the Requiem - Covenant - Carthians

Effect: This Merit is applicable only in cities where Carthian Law has taken effect. The character has learned to instinctively manipulate the Law to best suit her. This usually indicates that the character has dwelled in the city for a long time and thus has an intuitive and experienced understanding of the tenets that the city’s Kindred have passed, as well as how those tenets have changed over the years. Sometimes such characters were lawyers or scholars in life, but sometimes they are simply people who latch onto Carthian Law easily (which has some interesting implications, depending on what explanation for the Law your troupe uses).
The systems for this Merit are included with the mechanics for Carthian Law and can be found on The Carthian Movement article.

Prerequisites: Status (Carthians) •, Academics •
