GARGOYLE
Description: Gargoyles are large, man-shaped creatures that look like their namesake architectural
features. They have minimal intelligence, being mostly designed for the purposes
of serving a master or sorcerer. Indeed, some gargoyles truly are architectural features, perching
atop their masters’ havens and coming down only when beckoned or when they’ve seen
something about which a master might wish to know. Gargoyles are unliving automatons,
crafted from stone or some other substance.
Gargoyles are dense, heavy creatures, with rocky skin and features. A gargoyle might weigh
anywhere from 250 to 1,000 pounds. This entry assumes a man-sized gargoyle, weighing
about 450 pounds.
Not being truly alive, gargoyles are immune to being knocked out, bleeding to death, disease
and wound penalties caused by damage.

NON-COMBATANTS
The following are examples of non-combatant characters commonly encountered over the
course of a typical story.
BLOOD DOLL
Quote: “Why do you only call me when you need something? Wait — don’t get mad. I need
you. Do you hear me? I need you!”
Background: Some people know about vampires without truly knowing about the Kindred.
Of these, some actually yield up their blood to those who would drink it, craving either the
thrill of the taboo or genuinely experiencing pleasure from the act. People like these who are
subsequently drawn into the vampire scene are known as blood dolls, and they unknowingly
walk a dangerous line. As close to real vampires as they are, they are only ever a Prince’s decree
away from destruction as a possible Masquerade breach.
Description: Blood dolls can have any appearance, but many fi nd themselves among those
subcultures traditionally associated with vampires, such as goths, punks, rivetheads and the
