A Vampire's rich serf, rather. Sure, eventually you'll either get into an arranged marriage for more Revenants or you'll be made to serve some edgelord in a castle/manor though Vampires don't come by demanding scraps and housing 99% of the time.

Because it'd be like combining your Windows and Apple computer in the early 90s. They're entirely different sorcerous methods and paths.

However, Thaumaturgy operates a bit like Javascript, in that it can emulate things other sorcerous style do, it just needs an example to run off. This is, arguably, where Spirit Thaumaturgy came from in the first place.

Dur-An-Ki isn't arcane and secular, it comes from altered states of consciousness where you ascend upwards into a mental realm and contact a host of powerful entities that have already had relationships with humanity and vampire people since culture was culture. It's also not really known well outside the middle east. Thaumaturgy does not develop that way, but can derive new paths inside Thaumaturgy from ideas of other kinds of blood sorcery.

But, even Dur-An-Ki does not really deal with True Names and there's still no coherent, specific True Name Path, or ritual. It's just sort of handwaved. Even though it DOES validate expensive, rare, exotic reagents can be relegated to True Names for spells.

>What happened to your last WoD game?
A ST so focused on making the players happy that he neglects what HE wants.
So we had a mixed-splat CoD campaign which ran for somewhere between 90 and 100 sessions; but because everyone was a different thing, people were hesitant to dive too deep into "their world" as they felt it was taking away from group time. So we discussed and finally decided to keep the same setting but do new characters who were all the same splat, and we settled on CtL. The ST went all-out and created almost 100 NPCs with histories, personalities, and relationships. And then the chronicle starts, and everyone was having so much fun hanging around the freehold that they didn't want to go out and do what the chronicle was about. My ST, bless his heart, tried to roll with it; but he wanted to mystery stories about things that go bump in the night, not run an entire campaign based on gossip and petty politicking. And so it kinda fizzled out after about four sessions.
>Anyway got a break down on the potential characters yet?
I settled on Kitsune and we've got a pretty firm commitment to a Mokole and a Corax. I don't think the others have 100% settled; but last I heard it was a Bastet, a Ratfolk, and an Ananasi.

I played a Ghostbusters game, but for the life of me can't remember if it was the official rpg or some custom thing my friend made. Our characters were Ghostbusters franchisees for the city we actually live in. My character was a small time con man who didn't believe in ghosts and joined up because he thought it was just a way to scam credulous rubes. Finding new ways to rationalize the increasing levels of ghost activity was fun.

>>97261804
It's like this:

Cairn 2e and Bastionland have a lot of "classes" but it's more like backgrounds than a class.

>>97267726
It's called bait.
Cairn is just ItO with an extra rule for longer term damage, but 2e added some pretty nice procedures.

Very goated /osrg/ thread, bx newfag here coming back after a long break of 3 months and just having played session 20 with my group. But that's a story to share for another time. I came with another question and as Gygax willed it, the tq is quite related:
How do you guys track all the player run businesses and NPCs they enconter over the course of the campaign in a convenient and efficient way?
Special retard question: would you allow your players to have them or their retainers use their round to "forcefeed" another player a health potion?
And in a more serious way: how do you let players control/influence the actions of their retainers?

>How do you guys track all the player run businesses and NPCs they enconter over the course of the campaign in a convenient and efficient way?
Pen and paper? Not sure what you mean here.

>Special retard question: would you allow your players to have them or their retainers use their round to "forcefeed" another player a health potion?
If the feedee is unconscious, yes. If he is up and fighting, lol no.

>And in a more serious way: how do you let players control/influence the actions of their retainers?
With loyalty checks. I've recently discovered the tables for obeying orders from WRG and they're based, I might start using them some day. Basically roll high = charge in, roll low = run away, and roll average = obey orders. Picrel.

>>97273084

Also, you control henchmen, they are NPCs

The thing about Dark Sun is that its ruins are strange and weird because they're much more akin with "typical" fantasy than the rest of the world is.

It's kind of like how the discovery of a fantasy dungeon in a fantasy world is not that noteworthy, but discovering a fantasy dungeon in modern day New York would be a world-altering affair.

Dark Sun allows you to bring in adventures/dungeons from many other settings, and they become exceptionally strange and interesting because the dungeons will actually feel like ancient ruins containing lost magic and other oddities from a different time.

>>97270832
I'm still waiting for you to answer the question, how is one role that takes maybe 30 seconds to resolve, somehow a negative aspect for you?

>>97272671
NTA, but it doesn't quite take 30 seconds to resolve, since a chart like that requires it to be looked up because it's so poorly constructed and organized, and then the "unique" (minor variations of the same few) affliction has to be written down and any contradictions (such as from previous afflictions) have to be resolved/ignored/figured out, and all for something as incredibly unwanted as a permanent debilitation that predominantly takes the form of an aesthetic modification and an annoying mechanical nuisance.
You probably have not played enough games with real people to know that things like Crit Charts/Scar Tables/Permanent Wounds/etc. fall into that wonderful category of "Things a bad GM might like but most players hate", but even assuming the entire group actually enjoyed those sort of things, this particular execution is pretty awful because the majority of the rolls are poorly written/conceived dud results.
I understand you're pretty much a hopeless retard and you won't be able to understand anything I've explained to you, but that's kind of why you're stuck trying to promote a game only a hopeless retard would ever think is good.

>>97273237
