Beginner Decks: Ventrue

KoT Ventrue were used in this crypt; mostly because I felt that G1 titled Ventrue felt a little more expensive with Democritus' special not being as useful as Mary Anne Blaire's, Natasha Volfchek and Helena Casimir being really expensive 9 cap primogen (like seriously?).

While playtesting I noticed that inferior presence was predominant among the lower cap titled KoT Ventrue; this severely affected the (ab)use of Majesty to multi-action.
