Mortals know your name and eagerly seek out news of your activities. You might be a movie star, rock star, or other celebrity. Fame grants pull in mass and social media; you have more ways than most to manipulate the thoughts of the populace. You likely have ways to mask the fact that youâ€™re never seen during the day, such as a body double. 

In some circumstances, the Storyteller may allow you to use Fame in a Social test dice pool instead of another Trait, especially to get into an otherwise exclusive venue or event. â€œDo you know who I am?â€ doesnâ€™t work everywhere, but it does work. Each level of Fame subtracts one from the Difficulty of Social tests against your fans and from many hunting tests, depending on your predation strategy â€“ you have less trouble attracting prey.

Fame has its downside, of course â€“ itâ€™s harder for you to tail someone unobtrusively, for example, and who wants groupies hanging around the door to their haven all day tagging its location on Instagram? You should look into taking Disguise as a specialty. 

By default, Fame applies among mortals, but you can also buy Fame that applies among Kindred for the same cost. Some vampires, such as Dracula or Elizabeth Bathory, might have both! Vampires may admire, or at least be more interested in, a Kindred who was famous or infamous in life: Arthur Rimbaud, Crispus Attucks, Billy the Kid, and the like.


'''Flaw : Infamy<br>
You are famous for something horrible. At the very least, the Difficulty of most reaction tests increases by the amount of the Flaw; at worst, the authorities attempt to kill or capture you whenever you appear.

'''Flaw : Dark Secret<br>
You can also take Dark Secret, a milder version of Infamy. The Dark Secret Flaw provides one fewer point than the equivalent Infamy, as your black deeds remain unknown to all but you and perhaps one or two very motivated enemies. The one-dot version of Infamy also provides one point as a Dark Secret, because itâ€™s easier to uncover than a truly life-threatening secret.<br>
â–  Flaw: (â€¢â€¢) You are a Cleaver or serial breacher of the Masquerade, have been Blood Hunted out of another city, or have grievously offended this domainâ€™s ruler. <br>
â–  Flaw: (â€¢) You owe a big debt to bad people or have made yourself generally odious. Alternately, your spouse, lover, or close family member has Infamy â€¢â€¢. 


'''Advantage<br>
â€¢ A select subculture knows who you are and admires you. <br>
â€¢â€¢ You are a local celebrity, recognized by a plurality of the city. <br>
â€¢â€¢â€¢ Most people in the country know your name, at least.<br> 
â€¢â€¢â€¢â€¢ Everybody who even vaguely cares about social trends or your field knows something about you. <br>
â€¢â€¢â€¢â€¢â€¢ Your Fame reaches mass national or even global audiences. You are a major movie star, stadium-filling rock act, or former president
