Gargoyle Revolt

Gargoyle Revolt

Type: Unique Master

Cost: 1 pool

During the minion phase any ready slave Gargoyle may burn 1 blood to remove his or her slave status and become an Independent vampire. Any minion may burn this card as a action.

World of Darkness reference: During the mid-15th-century occurred the uprising in which the bulk of the Gargoyle slaves of Clan Tremere liberated themselves from their masters, this was known as (drum roll please)....."the Gargoyle Revolt."

Art notes: Bird's eye view of 3 gargoyles flying upwards towards the sky with a chantry in the far background below.

How does this card address a compelling game need?
With the exception of (over powered imo) Tupdogs, Gargoyles slaves are underwhelming with the clunky slave mechanic that requires a completely different clan (trem/trem anti) to function like any other non-slave vampire. Group 5 & 6 that can not play "Virstania" are at a disadvantaged by not being able to play with her ( as she is a group 3), if they want to convert slaves gargoyles in indi's.

More interesting options would open up for the non-slave. There is too few non-Slave gargoyles crypts throughout the various groupings as it is, and It would be easier to create a card like this than to release a ton of indi non-slaves gargoyles through group 2-6, it would also save a lot of card space.
