I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

Witch Hunter :
Witch Hunters are adept at tracking down and slaying practitioners of the Black Arts, having learned ways to counter their magic and prevent them from casting spells.
TRAITS: Witch Hunter PCs have all of the traits granted to Hunter characters, with the following exceptions:
"Blessed Weapon": The Witch Hunter carries some form of "Holy Weapon" (melee) which has been concecrated against practitioners of " The Black Arts",these blessed weapons always wound on a roll of 2+
" Talisman of Binding": The Witch Hunter has in his possesion some form of Talisman which weakens the powers of any Black Magik user,A Black Magik user facing a Witch Hunter may not cast a spell during the first turn of combat.
" Talisman of Protection": The Witch Hunter also wears a Talisman protecting him/her from any Black Magik spells,a Witch Hunter PC may re-roll any failed saves against Black Magik attacks.
" Thou Shalt not suffer the Witch to Live":..A Witch Hunter is fanatical in their Holy Mission,once a Witch Hunter engages in combat with a Black Magik user the Witch Hunter PC may not retreat from combat.
Witch Hunter PCs will also have anomosity towards a Hunter Djinn,seeing them as " Dabblers in the forbidden arts".
Nice!
Just some questions;
can the blessed item be a crossbow? (Would make things easier)
They have the same stats as a basic hunter right?

Yes same basic stats as a basic Hunter..
I considered allowing Witch Hunters to have "blessed" ranged weapons,but I'm thinking that might give them to much of an advantage...

2+ wounding ranged weapon to someone with a BS of 6?
Can I combat this with a ranged werewolf curse?
Andy walks round a corner, and suddenly feels the skin on his arm throb with pain. He looks down, and notices a mysterious bite mark that had only just appeared.
From half a mile away Ryan licked his bloody lips.
an advantage..... yes, but I have Dez crossbow of killyness and running around with two blessed weapons seems a bit overpowered to me... (I know, the stats and traits are good for a new char, but if i wanted to change Vegas into this, it would give me...too much.)
I find it hard to ask for an exception, but i think it would be more fair towards the other players. (Afterall i'm doing this for fun, and not "win"...)
but... What if we nerve the crossbow down? wound on 3+ or 4+... Would that offset the imbalance?

That might work...
However,I should indicate that the crossbow Vegas has in her possesion is not a "Blessed Weapon" in the same sense as a "Witch Hunters" Blessed Weapon is....
The Crossbow fires bolts which are specificly blessed against Vampires...were she to shoot a Witch or Warlock with it,it would simply be an arrow attack.
...Also...what two blessed weapons does Vegas have??

And the turnover from only vamp to warlock coud be covered by a simple rp.... For example a ritual to infuse it with powers... or something...
Ok...I see what your saying,but ...and it's a big but...if I were to allow her blessed weapon to be the crossbow...then it would be her only blessed weapon.
Just out of curiosity ....why would Vegas opt to become a Witch Hunter?...
It would seem to me that her primary focus would be on Werewolves...all things considered.

Damn, i didn't think this one through.
Your absolutly right, i just focussed too much on the WH, and forgot about Vegas....
Please ignore my previous posts and such....
(If you wondered why, i focussed on the WH, i can't tell.... You'll have to read it in the rp...)
There goes my rp off traversing the river styx.... I'll have to edit my written rp...
*AAArgh, curses his own mind*
...Sorry bro...I didn't mean to derail your whole gig there...
I suppose you could always justify Vegas becoming Fanatical over the destruction of evil by saying she see's Colt's death and her sisters transformation ( Vampires/Werewolves) as symptoms of a "Larger disease"...

Vegas getting obsessed for getting revenge for Colt?
Exactly ...Vegas could have become obsessed with the idea that it was "Evil" that killed Colt and Evil that caused Holly to be transformed to a Wolf...
From there she may have begun to spend time around the more "Fanatical" Hunter elements and began down the path of the Witch Hunter.

That's not a bad idea at all...after all Colt's body was left behind after he was killed.

Actually,I wish I'd have been the one to think of it...that way I could have kept it as a surprise to spring on you during the RP...
Now I'm going to have to work double time to come up with some more "secret plans"...
