I purchased this book for one of my players, who is playing an Avenger. His character is far from the gun-slinging killer we expect from the creed from the beginning. We have been turning him into one by having monsters systematically everything he holds dear, filling him with rage. This book has helped me as a storyteller develop a better sub-plot to accomplish this transformation without going completely overboard and just slaying everything in one go around. As a player, my friend has managed to use this book for insight into how Avengers deal with his role in his group, as well as in society in general. For a character with two kids and a job as a high school Lit teacher, that seems important. This book makes it possible to create an Avenger who is more of a complete person than just a hard-core killing machine. I would suggest any of the Hunter books, but this one and perhaps Martyr and Innocent are the most vital.
I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!

O.K. I like to play Avengers, This book lets me define them as more than a killing machine. New Powers too. You can mix them up so when you have a few Avengers around they aren't all copycats. Also the other ways of playing an Avenger are great to roleplay.
Good addition to the Hunter universe

The first of the Creed Books for Hunter: the Reckoning has a good mix of in-character rumors and philosophies and out-of-character rules and goodies (the new traits and edges are especially nice). Excellent insight into the Avengers of the WoD and worth a look by any Hunter STs and players.
