Most of my memorable characters were Scions, it really does give you a lot of unique rp options. Thats mostly because the only other evil outlet has some rp restrictions about being evil. This does'nt change the fact that the cabal does not fit into cabal politics at all, which is one of the reasons they were limited in numbers.

At this point to be a succesful scion, you need to have a good 5 yrs under yout belt or you won't make it.
