Hi, Hmm, After reading some articles about Fame I had a look at it and saw that in the VtES edition it is unique (it is not in Jyhad). Is this on the errata-list (why should there be only one famous Vampire???)? I ask this because an opponent drove me crazy with his Sethites Fame/Mummify combos and I would be glad if I was able to contest his fame. However, IF it is unique, who pays the contesting costs? Is it a kind of title (minion pays) or a simple master (pool loss)? Marc

And I look at it as being not that there's only one famous vampire, but that there's only one _REALLY_ famous vampire, since the Camarilla will only let the masquerade be bent so far. :) : I ask this because an opponent drove me crazy with his Sethites Settites. : Fame/Mummify combos and I would be glad if I was able to contest his : fame.

It being a card (not a title), the Methuselah pays it. Vampires only pay to contest titles. There is a house rule in some places to treat Fame as if it were a title, but that isn't official. -- L.

It is a unique card, methuselahs pay for all contested unique cards. Vampires only pay for contested titles.
