Summary

From the White Wolf catalog:

By Blood It Is Done

Bound by their masters' blood, ghouls serve the undead and fight their battles in the shadows. Dragged, seduced, or forced into the night, ghouls live at the whims of their masters--for better or for worse.

By Blood It Is Made Anew

Revenants are twisted and unique. They have vampiric powers and extended life, as well as a form of the Beast all their own. Crafted by blending ghouls with dark magic, Revenants have become something else altogether.

Ghouls & Revenants includes:
Expanded and revised character creation for ghoul and revenant player-characters
Clan and Sect write-ups for ghouls who serve them
New revenant families including the Rossellini, Kairouan Brotherhood, and more.
New rules for ghouls and revenants including new Merits & Flaws, Backgrounds, Discipline Packages, etc.
