Custom Path of Enlightenment
Some chronicles allow for their players to develop customized powers for their characters. The following is a compilation of player created custom content in OWBN. At this time, custom content that is created and/or used by vampire PC's is required to be listed.
The Path of the Alban Wheel(pointed wheel) is a divergence from the Road of Sin: Path of the Eightfold Wheel. Those that follow this path have an aura of tranquility about them. Unlike the Road of Sin, this path is Self Control and Conscience as willfully following the Gods should be a considered act rather than an instinctual one.
While this path does not preclude violence, it is one of introspection, self reflection, and willful decision. The druids and priests of the old gods held the tribes together as teachers, healers, councilors, and judges. Followers of many Indo-European gods might find their way to this path, though Einjerjar might take umbrage if they come across those that follow it while revering the Norse gods.
