1. Does the merged Vampire take it's sect from the base vampire or the new advanced vampire? I assume that it's from the advanced version, but the description states that the new vampire uses the special abillities of both vamps. While sect isn't a special abillity it doesn't immediatly appear to specify. 2. What happens if the vampires are influenced in the reverse order? Advanced vampire than say old school Lucita? I assume you would be able to do the 4 transfers and one pool to influence the old school copy into play? 3. In the case of Jeremy Mcneil and the not yet released Lucita it appears the both only gain the benifits of their titles if the cards are merged. Is this correct? 4. The blood cost of influencing the advanced version is a cost and not an additional influence. Ie: the new copie of Jeremy would be at 7 blood not 8 if both copies were influenced right away? So far it looks prety cool. The advanced mechanic doesn't appear to be half as differcult as we were speculating. Pc.

The merged vampire has the same amount of blood that the vampire had before the merge. Any blood on the uncontrolled vampire prior to the merge is lost (returned to the blood bank). -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.
