This may actually have been deliberate; not all of the NPCs in setting books get full traits due to space constraints. This is true in Hunting Ground: Rockies as well; some of the characters have full traits, while the others just get Merits, Gifts, Renown and that sort of thing.

Indeed.


Also thankfully Ralph you mention that you have fond memories of New Orleans by Night more due to a good game set there than the book itself, since it was pretty much: pure badness (people seem to remember "fondly" Berlin by Night and never the as-bad New Orleans by Night & Dark Colony, i.e. New England by Night...)
