= I.                    Custom Bloodlines: = == A.                 Custom Bloodlines with unique Disciplines or Devotions may only enter play as part of the “Best Practices” competition (see below). == == B.                  Custom Bloodlines which only add one Discipline (either Common or Uncommon) are allowed with Mid approval. These Bloodlines are required to take the Clan Flaw of the Clan that has the added Discipline innately. For example, a Bloodline that adds Protean must take on the Gangrel Clan Flaw; a Bloodline that adds Celerity must add either the Daeva or Mekhet Clan Flaw. No "swapping out" of Disciplines is allowed except as part of the "Best Practices" competition. == == C.                  The “Best Practices” Competition: Each year, players and Storytellers may submit a packet to the ANST: Requiem. No individual may submit more than one item per year. Any item may be submitted for consideration- Bloodlines, Disciplines, Devotions, Coils, rituals, etc. From the items submitted for consideration, the ANST will narrow the field to twenty items. These twenty items will be presented to the membership for popular vote. The top ten items will be presented to the RST’s and the NST for consideration. The RST’s and NST will select three to five custom items for introduction to the US Chronicle. ==
