This book provides players and storytellers alike with loads of usefull ideas with which to develope their characters or start new ones. You get info on how hunters deal with the 'real' world around them, loads of merits and flaws and ideas for concepts (such as the lone hunter, or young - as in toddler - hunters and how to roleplay them). Loads more stuff on Bystanders, who weren't really detailed in the main rules at all. This book gives you everything you need to know to play one, and even makes it a viable opotion. The ST can also use it to flesh out your background bystanders. The one thing I didn't like about this book - and its a minor point - is that there is some info inside that a ST might not want his players to know about. Its hard to surprise your players with one of the Wayward when they've already read the story accompaning there description in this book. But a clever ST can easily work around this, and most of the stuff is pretty safe.

Good stuff for a great game!
1 Jun 2001
It has a similar layout to White Wolf's other Player's Guidebooks. New Merits and Traits (Internet Savvy, Uneducated) new classes (the Hermit and the Wayward) and an absolute ton of ideas on how to create and play an average human being (a surprisingly difficult task at times).
I have most of the stuff that has been put out for Hunter so far, and this would come right after the Survival Guide in order of usefulness and game expansion. The Hermit class is EXTREMELY interesting (they hear voices from the Messengers constantly) and the Merits/Flaws really help to round out a character (there's a fair bit more than just the standard merits/flaws that find their way into all the player's guides).
The roleplaying tips and ideas are realy nice, especially concerning what types of people are likely to pick up a given creed. There are some interesting rules presented on changing creeds as well (you were an innocent, but you've seen enough, etc.) which make good sense. A whole section on Bystanders is a nice addition as well (they hint that many Bystanders are failed Hunters - ones who heard the call but failed to act).
There's more here than I can lay down, suffice it to say if you've picked up the main book and want to delve deeper into the roleplaying of Hunter this is definetly a worthwhile purchase.
