This is exactly what I´m looking for - most systems make it far too
easy to create characters that walk unharmed from many a trouble.

http://www.fanen.com , a German mail-order RPG store. They still have
the sourcebooks mentioned above (135DM/about 70USD as a bundle), plus
Nightwalker/The Villee Affair. They ship internationally, minimum
value per order is 100DM, though.

This definitely goes on my list :)

Is there any other useful information in this book? It seems to me
that you can get this from the Internet very easily.
