Humanity & Breaking Points

Vampire Humanity represents their perspective and understanding of their former lives, allowing them to blend with mortals and walk among them. Vampires with low Humanity grow distant and alien. Vampires use Humanity, while mortals use Integrity. The social modifier for humanity applies to dealing with mortals, however does not apply to their Trusted or other vampires.

“My Character Kills People All the Time”

Is it possible for a character to reach a point where killing another human being is not a breaking point? Players might make the argument for soldiers, policemen, gang members or good-hearted serial killers to be exempt from suffering breaking points from taking a life, up to a point. For mortal, non-supernatural characters, our recommendation is that if a character kills a person, it’s always a breaking point, even if the player gets a positive modifier to the roll.
Note that we said “mortal, non-supernatural” character. Vampires, werewolves and other shadow-folk aren’t fully human and don’t play by the same rules. Their rules, in fact, will be addressed in the appropriate books.
