Since this LJ community is entirely OOC I figured it would be a good place to start some interesting discussions on parts of the Ordo Dracul and how they relate to enjoyment of the game. The first is the concept of Anathema Studies.
Now the Dying Light can declare a path of study Anathema… but should they? By doing this you’re cutting off at least one player’s character concept at the knees (since someone has to have studied it for it to be declared Anathema). On the other hand if you don’t you allow in wackiness that is potentially paradigm breaking.
What do others think about this? What paths do you think should be Anathema and what paths do you think others would find Anathema that you think should not be?
Why?
