Theorist

Archetypes

No one can explain everything, but you try, gods know. Each enigma is a challenge for you, a chance to prove some new or beloved theory. Perhaps you have some great insight focused through dozens of interconnected ideas; maybe you have a single grand theory that, if it could only be proven, would rock the foundations of the world. Perhaps you've already proven your theory, and the magic you possess springs from the answer. Whatever concept you might embrace, never miss a chance to either espouse your theory, or to concoct a new one that fits in with your existing ideas.

Naturally, you should formulate your grand idea, establish its parameters and describe it to your Storyteller before the tale begins. this Archetype assumes a character with some wild, esoteric philosophy and the means to prove it, if only in his own mind.

Regain Willpower whenever some observation you had based on your theory comes to pass. Note that this should involve an exotic yet coherent set of ideas that lead to a conclusion; a simple "See! My theory is that vampires feed on blood and he just proved it! Gimme my Willpower!" will not be sufficient.
