Submission - Mithras (g6 Ventrue 11) was created by Ankha

Name: Mithras
Clan: Ventrue
Group: 6
Capacity: 11
Discipline: DOM FOR OBF POT PRE
Camarilla Prince of London: Each turn, Methuselahs can play only one master card each. Mortals and mages can't block Mithras. +2 bleed.

World of Darkness reference: A World of Darkness 2nd Edition. This is Mithras before he was diablerized by Monty Coven. An alternative would be to make a advanced version of Monty Coven that would have some Ventrue traits as Mithras is taking control of Monty after the diablerie.
Mithras is a very powerful vampire, considered as a god by many mortals, capable of killing many werewolves. He's also a ruler and organizer (thus his control that limits "actions" taken by other Methuselahs)

How does this card address a compelling game need? Group 5-6 has only 1 Ventrue with Obfuscate (Graham Gottesman). Instead of introducing another Inner Circle for group 6, an alternative could be to introduce famous 4-5th gen vampires as 11-capacity vampires. His ability to limit master cards is fit a vampire rather than a generic card for decks built around a table-control strategy.

I love the 11 cap for Mithras.

I love the ability, which tie nicely with its personality.

I am a bit disappointed to see no quietus and no assamite-related ability, but it's not an horrible problem.

Nice card. I don´t know if you care, but Mithras in VtM don´t have obfuscate. He has quietus though.

You may want to rephrase the master limit to be Master Phase Actions instead of Master Cards played. With the current wording, using Lilith's Blessing or transferring pool off an Investment would still be usable after the one Master Card is played. Just something to consider.

Looking at Mithras's statistics this would represent him a lot better.

Name: Mithras
Clan: :vent:

Ventrue
Group: ???
Capacity: 10
Disciplines: :qui:

Camarilla Prince of London: If Mithras is ready, Methuselahs can't take more than 1 master phase action each turn. Mortals and Mages can't block Mithras. +1 strength. +1 bleed.
