Inherent - These disciplines are inherent in the vampiric condition. They can be learned (and can be included with other starting disciplines, at out of clan XP prices) without a teacher (up to rank 3), though you will still pay Out-of-Clan Prices for them: Celerity Fortitude Potence
Common - These are able to be taught by a mentor without selling your soul. They're also much more likely to be taught to you by another character than some of the later categories: Animalism Auspex Dominate Obfuscate Presence

Anyone out of the clan who has these disciplines better have an extremely good reason for having it, or they may be killed.
