Brujah brawler (Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition)
The Brujah are the passionate rebels of the Camarilla, known for their fiery tempers and revolutionary spirit.

They value freedom, justice, and direct action over the political games of other clans.

Priorities
- Pick a clear reason you fight (conviction + touchstone).
- Build a physical core (combat skill + mobility).
- Add one social angle so you can win scenes without violence.
Play tips
- Use violence as leverage, not as the only solution.
- Plan for Hunger complications: messy wins are still wins if you control fallout.
- Invest in a stable ally network to offset the Brujah’s volatility.
