Chantry

The Tremere put alot of time and effort into making the place they live nice. Clan members are expected to pitch in and improve the facilities so that they may all prosper.

Each Chantry upgrade provides all the Tremere with the advantage. It is possible for a single Tremere to make the upgrades themselves in their own private portion of the Chantry., but this takes a ton of time and effort. It is also frowned upon by the clan.

The Chantry has it’s own sheet located in the Tremere group chat.
