I'm working on a mini-campaign to give SR4 a try. And to get the full experience, I'm giving my players the option to make their characters or use a published archetype. Not surprisingly, one of my players threw me a curveball (they're an inventive bunch). He really wants to play a ghoul adept. I was hesitant at first, but he has a great concept, made a convincing pitch, and I'd hate to turn him down just because there's nothing "official" on them yet.
So... I have some ideas for converting SR3 ghouls to SR4, but I'm looking for any homebrew SR4 ghoul rules so I can compare and see what other people have done. I only have the main book and street magic to go off of, so if ghouls have been covered in one of the other books, please let me know. |
