Just a quick question because I can’t seem to find an answer anywhere. I’m looking at using Nexus to run my Vampire game, but do I have to rebuy EVERY book for character creation? Or Can I purchase just the Core book and Player’s Guide to unlock all the clans etc? When I try to create characters it asks me to unlock Camarilla, Chicago, etc. but not the Player’s Guide. So can I get everything with the two books or do I need all the others?
Hi there! Welcome to Demiplane.
There are some options across various books (merits/flaws, loresheets, powers, etc.), but it sounds like one of the core things you’re wanting to get are all of the clans, which makes sense as that’s a core option! I’ve taken some time and put together a list of what book (or books) each clan is in, and then summarized at the end the smallest list of books to get every clan.
Core Book - 9 Total
Brujah, Gangrel, Malkavian, Nosferatu, Toreador, Tremere, Ventrue, Caitiff, Thin-Blooded
Players Guide - 7 Total
Ravnos, Salubri, Tzimisce, Banu Haqim, The Ministry, Lasombra, Hecata
Cults of the Blood God - 1 Total
Hecata
Camarilla - 1 Total
Banu Haqim
Anarch - 1 Total
The Ministry
Chicago by Night - 1 Total
Lasombra
Your estimation was correct! All of the clans appearing in additional books (the ones with one clan each) also appear in Players Guide.
Purchasing Core Book and Players Guide will give you access to every clan!
Thank you SO much! I appreciate the clarification and will be diving in soon!
