I'm guessing for the most part the Minor Templates (Wolf-Blooded, Ghouls, Proximii, Enchanted Mortals, etc) see very little play outside NPCs. I've been playing them alongside the Major Templates (XP-adjusted to compensate for the lack of powers), but I've always thought there's an interesting premise to be had with a whole group of them.
There's broadly two options; they could all be the same type, where you'd effectively be playing a different level of focus in the same game. Perhaps they're a specialist team of fixers employed by the Major Template to handling things more subtly than sending in the Majors. For example it might be The Day Shift, an elite Ghoul kill-team who clean up threats the vampires can't get to during the day, beneath the noses of the authorities.
Alternatively, in a mixed group you have the option of taking Minor Templates from any of the lines, so you might have a Ghoul, a Wolf-Blooded and a couple of Proximii teaming up. That would seem to lend itself more towards either a Hunter-style game, or else something more mortal-focused, where the PCs are a cut above regular people by dint of their supernatural connection.
In either instance you'd give them bonus Experiences to start with (15-40 depending on how much extra juice is desired), so that they can get some real differentiation and start out competent enough to do more than milk runs.
Sound interesting? Has anyone done something like this?

[nWoD/GMC] Has anyone every played an all-Minor Templates game?
