Dhampyr doesn't have to be born to a human and a thinblood, it can also be two thinbloods (the latter is more likely just from a logistical standpoint)

OK, so if we're going strict OWoD, no, dahmpyrs are not born of two thinbloods or a human and a thinblood. They are solely born of Kuei-jin that have infused themselves with too much Yang Chi and had sex. It can be a Kuei-jin and a human, or two Kuei-jin.

Oh yeah Dhampir with an "I" are the Kindred-born ones

Accessing. "Time of Thin Blood", part of the Year of Reckoning event. Yup, dhampir can be born of a thinblood/human or thinblood/thinblood pairing. Said product functions almost exactly like a revenant ghoul family member. Wow. How boring. Really just a self-ghoul.

Yeah they're basically just revenants that don't have to deal with blood bond

Yeah see some vampires are terrified of dhampir as a portent of Gehenna and a reason to exterminate thinbloods Others say "What's the big deal, it's just a ghoul with no blood bond" The members of the latter group have bought into vampires' own hype to a deadly degree

They don't realize that if there were no blood bond, the argument over who's more powerful, a vampire or a ghoul, suddenly gets very, very dicey You're talking about someone with dots in Potence and Auspex who can Blood Heal etc and can *go around during the day*

1 dot. Dhampirs appear to be restricted to 1 dot in any Discipline.

Yeah but they regenerate their own blood pool and they have no vampire weaknesses, they're a "vampire hunter" archetype (and vampire hunters get as much hunting done during the day as they can)

If I were running a game with them, I'd probably make them "weirder" by making them totally invisible to Imbued, too

If you're going to take the idea they can be Imbued themselves as canon then that's how it has to work, anyone who can be Imbued counts as "human" and doesn't ping the Second Sight

yeah, and notably (per First Contact) people with Numina and other Hunters Hunted tricks do, so they can't be Imbued Psionicists are suggested to look like they have big heads under the second sight, Orpheus employees probably don't look much better
