Liber des Goules: The Book of Ghouls is a sourcebook for Classic Mind's Eye Theatre, providing rules for using ghouls as player characters.
Summary[]
- From the White Wolf Catalog:
- Neither Here Nor There
- There have always been those who have trouble committing. Now here's your chance to peek inside their world. You know who I'm talking about - the ones who can't decide if they want to be alive or...not quite alive. Better than humans (or so they say) but still almost human. I'm talking about ghouls.
- Take the Best of Both Worlds!
- But why choose if you don't have to? If you're a ghoul, you get all the perks of being a vampire - incredible powers, a look at what's really going on, and, best of all, immortality - without giving up going to the beach to get a tan. And all you have to do is drink a little blood every once in a while. Sounds like a good deal to me.
- Liber des Goules is the Mind's Eye Theatre book for playing ghouls. It features:
- Previously unpublished rules for playing ghouls in live-action;
- Information on Servitors, Hunters and Revenants;
- Ghoul powers and more!
