Submission: Critias and Damien

It seems wierd that Critias would only be a 9 cap. I know you based that off Menele being 10, and since Critias is his progeny... but honestly he should be a 10 cap himself.

Capacity isn't necessarily tied to generation. Look at Vlad, who is an 11 cap for some reason.

Vlad made lambacu embrace him then ate someone older than Lambach I believe. Also, Demdemeh is 4th gen and 10...

Anyway, I get what you're saying, but his discipline spread is just off, so I stacked down from Menele.

@Cat_in_Exile:Vlad btw is 10 cap not 11.

So he is. He shows up as an 11 when searching in Amaranth, though it shows 10 on the card itself.

One thing that has always bugged me is that inner circle members are too high capacity in comparison to vampires who are methuselahs in lore (most that I can think of are 10-caps ingame). There's nothing that can be done to it anymore, but Methuselahs should be 11 caps and ICs 10 caps imo. Its a pretty big flavor fail.

Also, cards not living up to Canon portrayals. Karsh the card sux. His CotN description says "he swings a sword and enemies fall" for strength, and something about diamonds for stamina instead of dots. Vitel does black metamorphosis and throws fire, killing several vamps after taking a shotgun to the face before getting killed in the clan novels. I get not enough space for all his discipline, but still a shame.

That's why I like basing submissions off of actual source material and in game utility when possible.
