I'm having a brainfart and need character ideas for a WOD(in general) campaign. The basic premise is that we're mundane humans trying to break the masquerade the various supernatural beings have imposed, starting with the vampires. The catch in character creation is that were supposed do describe how they're strong, or how they can do more stuff and be more useful than 100 guys with guns, long story short stats have to be justified in character. I'm completely new to WOD, an I sort of want it to be that way for this campaign. No spoilers in any way would be appreciated.

Pick a profession you think would be cool and do a little Googling about it. Make a character who is in that profession. Just a random idea, but an easy way to start From there, does your character have kids? Is (presumably) he married or divorced? What's his favorite color or drink? You get the idea.
