Learning languages
A character may have a free bonus language for each point of intelligence beyond the first dot. Languages can also be purchased through the language merit in the core WoD rulebook. Bonus languages from intelligence must be selected from a list based on your race. Any other languages must be achieved through merits. The available languages are as follows.
