In the Choicescript choice selection interface, players are given a range of options about their character's history: - On a trip down to Nuevo Laredo, I honed my brute strength against a bloodsucker in a Luchador mask. - In a dead mall near Atlanta, I learned to move fast when I faced off with a pack of werewolves. - When a bloodsucker in Utah locked me up, tortured me, and fed on me over days, I learned how to endure pain and keep it together. - At a club in Seattle, I learned the power of my natural charm and used it to get to the center of a ring of occultists. - Up in Tehama County, I learned to get what I wanted out of people when I rallied the local sheriff's department into helping me deal with a dead-eyed Renfield luring in local kids. - When I was picked up by Border Patrol on a recon mission, I learned the importance of keeping my cool under pressure and endured several hours of interrogation. - After some bloodsuckers went on a spree across three states, I put my mind to the test creating an early alert network for Hunters across the whole southwest. - Pinned down by a crazed fellow Hunter in Ashland, with no weapons at my disposal, I learned the value of thinking on my feet.
