boxoto 08/23/25 12:04:22 AM #11:	this is what Google said about the clan power thing: Phyre gains access to Disciplines (abilities) from other clans by forming alliances with and feeding on other vampires, which allows her to unlock and use their powers. The cost of acquiring these Disciplines varies depending on how closely they align with her own clan's skillset; for example, a Brujah vampire would find it cheaper to acquire similar powers like Celerity or Potence than unrelated ones like Obfuscate. This system allows players to accumulate and stack multiple clan perks, offering a wide range of customization and power, although each clan retains a unique passive ability exclusive to them. --- Don't you agree, Zach? https://streamable.com/ueacaz <cite>boxoto posted [p:986180293] in Is this ac...
