OC from last thread https://imgchest.com/p/bp45mdwdqy5
you job to me.
I decided to stop putting immortality options in my cyoas because they don't fit in the setting and only serve to pacify screaming thanatophobic babies. Any author who reads this should join me #fuck immortalitylets.
>>96722393Enjoy having your cyoas ignored.

>>96722374No, you cannot use semicolons in place of colons.
>>96722531What are you going to do about it?
>>96722393>I decided to stop putting immortality options in my cyoas because they don't fit in the settingImmortality can fit into any setting if you have even a smudge of creativity.
>>96722531What if he put two of them?
>>96722374>no personal powersInto the trash it goes
You have to earn immortality in my setting. You can't just pick the immortality option and neet it up, you actually have to accomplish shit if you want to live forever.
>>96722374The font is too small.
>>96722393Correct, and not just for the immortality meme. Catering to the whiniest minority of anons is never worth it, they'll just find something else to be retarded about.
>>96722542Most immortality options are literally just "yeah you can live forever because your speshul and stuff". That's not a good explanation.
>>96722393I don't think its that much of a problem. The immortality whiner is just a single autist who can't come to grips with his mortality.
>>96722571You can have immortal races like elves or dhampirs. In a sci-fi setting, there could also exist biologically immortal races. One could also imagine that there exist nanomachines that keep their host young or other medical procedures with similar results.
>>96722619Old age is kind of a bullshit death thoughYou didn't make any mistakes, you didn't even get unlucky, you just die, for no reasonIt's nonsense
What are your favorite race options?Personally, I enjoy it when there's an option to play as a human, but better. Like a heroic age version of humanity. The dire wolf to a normal human's wolf.
GOOD OC WHEN

>>96722645>Personally, I enjoy it when there's an option to play as a human, but better. Like a heroic age version of humanity. The dire wolf to a normal human's wolf.Me too.Strangely even though Elves technically fit that criteria I hate to play as them. I like any creative variations of generic humanoid races in general.
>>96722681>>96722682
>>96722640That's what it is anon. You can't dwell on something so out of your control. You should make best of what time you're given, or if you're religious look forward to an eternity in the afterlife (whether bad or good).
>>96722645I am effectively already playing as one of those, so I have a great affection for itI also like elves, and angel people, but not as much
>be op for a while>usually make a new thread at 550 or more posts>get insulted because i make threads too early>stop>another guy starts making new threads>makes new threads at 340 or more posts>nobody complainssorry but why does op get away with it?
>>96722704We might be able to free ourselves from age, but once we do we remove all hope of retaining and identityPeople like to imagine immortality as a book that never ends, with the writings becoming denser and denser as you approach then end, but really it will be limited in the other way. only the last 50 pages or so matter, and with each passing day the past means less and less. Someday I might see myself in a history book or old photo and have genuinely no idea who it isBecause of this, I have elected to end my identity at the year 300. after that I will count as a different person with the same genetics. eventually those genetics will also change and the drift will make what may be me indistinguishable from what may be youI still hope I live to 300, and I hope I can do the things I want done
>>96722729>threadslave dramaThis is exactly what we need right now.
>>96722645Unique ones, or at least with some unique twist, like OR Majin who aren't too like more classic demons. But I tend to pick good ol' humans too often anyway.
>>96722729Have you considered that you have more of an emotional reaction to bickering that includes you, and that actually the levels stay about the same?Also new threads are made based on the page number
>>96722645Which ever seems more interesting to powergame.
>>96722776Meaningless behavior.
>>96722780There's meaning even in powergaming, of course, mini-0^0's could never understand that.
>>96722729It was page 10 and you were pouting. There is no special glory in being OP. If you won't do it because of the merged thread temper tantrum, somebody else will. Simple as.
>>96722393mind revealing which author you are? i will screenshot this post for the future.
>>96722811100 bucks it's a random shitposter
Do you need to be the strongest?
>>96722864I already am the strongest
>>96722864Personally no. I think that's boring. If I'm just made the strongest than what is the point in playing the cyoa? Life has no purpose without some kind of obstacle to overcome or work towards.
Post CYOAs with immortality
>>96722898
Only based CYOAs have immortality
Only based authors make based immortality CYOAs
Only based mothers give birth to based authors who make based immortality CYOAs
>>96722898>>96722911that's like 70 to 80% of cyoas (not considering pill pikers)
>>96722864Of course not, just don't make the player character a suffering pressed peasant, yeah that's pretty much the bare minimum don't make it worse and less powerful than an average life on earth, if you make it hard at least compensate with some power, unless your pandering to masochists than do whatever torture porn you want but most of those are in trash/
>>96722864Nah.
Only based Chads fuck based Stacys who give girth to based authors who write based CYOAs with immortality
>immortalityfag was triggered
>>96722957>give girth
>>96722945Let's aim to make it 99%>>96722969Fuck yourself depressionfag
>>96722864no, not at the start but i want to have the potential to be the strongest by the end if i work towards it.
>>96722969Kek
>>96723002So your generic isekai protagonist?
The only reason not to want immortality is if you want to die. To want to die is unhealthy, thus, only depressed people want to die. So if you don't want immortality in a CYOA, you should seriously seek professional help.
>>96723040What if it's cursed and torturous immortality?
>>96723040
>>96723052You can just uncurse and untorutre it. It's like fixing a crazy bitch, she just needs some love.
>>96722704>You can't dwell on something so out of your control.That's right Grug, you should never, ever try to improve your situation and leave the cave. To do otherwise is to play gods.
>>96722508So what are you anons planning on doing after you've purchased yourself out of your skeleton-mandated slavery?
>>96723075How would you uncurse and untorture the immortality from the MAID horror cyoa?
>>96722645Fairies.
>>96723104Hoard techniques, hoard wealth, hoard harem
>>96722645Dragons
>>96723104Become the strongest.
>>96723115Good for you anonYou deserve fairy options
>>96723104Hide, transport myself to a better setting
>>96723119>>96723129same anon btw
ItalicsCHADs, we will win.
You've been saying the same cope for years.
>>96723026kinda, but I'm not a spineless cuck>>96723040>only depressed people want to dieno, there are other reasons, like being a retard, or having mental illness, or being so old that is not worth living anymore.deathfags probably never had someone close to them die, or never had been close to death themselves, that's why they worship death>>96723376now that i notice, did the author only use ai art for the whole cyoa? its not even the good kind...
>>96722729We were page 10. Why didn't you make the thread?
Something stirs in the darkness...
>>96723748No it fucking doesn'tYou made a spelling error, revise for ten more years
>>96723778No... something definitely stirs in the darkness...
>>96723748>>96723778>>96723814what the fuck are you guys talking about?
its happening isn't it? I think I can feel it too
>>96723832He is selling his body
>>96723115I don't understand the coomers for fairies. Unless you have a very small dick, your dick is bigger than their whole body, you are not getting it inside without killing or making it a torture.
>>96723867Fairies are magical and stretchy, anon.
>>96723867>implying I want to fuck the fairyrumao
>>96723876there is a difference between stretchy and taking a dick bigger than your own body
>>96723937Not really no.
>>96723867You're the one who immediately jumped to coomer assumptions.
>>96722811No I prefer to remain anonymous so I don't get targeted by spergs. However, keep a heads up for any OCs with immortality option scarcity in the future...
>>96723091You will die someday and there's nothing you could do about it.
>>96723957>and thus he sets up some random unlucky author to be savaged by seething immortalityfagsbased
>>96723967Someday men will no longer die, and there's nothing you can do to stop it.
>>96723975>Someday men will no longer dieFake news, the apocalypse is tomorrowI'm a prophet
>>96723986This time for sure.
>>96723975humanity will never reach that point
>>96722645I'm a human supremacists
>>96724016We know, Zhuchka.
>>96723986what apocalypse scenario are we following? ragnarok, the Cristian one, a meteor....?>>96723967>>96724010yo this guy is unironically depressed, the other anon was right
>>96723851Yes. I feel it too. It's coming... finally its coming...
>>96723951I am talking about those specific coomers, not jumping to that particular anon being one of those.
>>96724045Know what crossed(the comic) is? That one
>>96724067That cyoa... yes. That one. Say its name
>>96723951Sauce?

>>96724091Echoes PSY. The long wait is finally over...
>>96724111Not the point, is it?
>>96724097nta but looks like a manga of Persona 3. I doubt they did such a joke tho, so it must be edited.>>96724091Exalted Conquest
Darkness comes for you once more... will you be able to survive your own immortality?IMGChest: https://imgchest.com/p/6eyra829g4pChangelog v2.0 Re-embraced:New Direction:>Greater focus on VTM overall>V1, V2 and V20 used as basis for inspiration, with V5 sprinkled on top where it made sense to me personally.>Some clan names have their V5 names, others not (as the change didn’t make sense to me).New Pages:>Clan page added with obscure bloodlines and explanation of the camarilla>Blood Sorcery page added and separated from Blood Powers page.>Character page added to define non-vampiric features, inspiration taken from V20>First Nights page added which has elements from “Your Sire” page made into exclusively defining your undead beginnings.>Chronicles page added with scenarios, quests and mysteries Changes to Intro Page:>Added the option to isekai yourself into the world of darkness or have the world of darkness reverse isekai into your world.>Added Hooks as a currency>Better explanation for Generations and added a more varied selections/options for choosing Sire generation and added general guidelines for >how difficult it would be to survive your first years as a childe of such a sire>Masquerade explanation was added>Various explanations on what it means to be a vampire was tweaked to be more inline with the World of Darkness setting
Immortalityfag is ESL, which is weird, you'd think Thirdies would want to die sooner.
>>96724137Changes to Clans & Sects Pge:>Added support to roll for your clan(and other things that would realistically be out of your control) based on feedback and some builds did so in the old version anyway, which I found to be very neat.>Doomed Bloodlines were added >Added a more elaborate manner to choose your sects alongside an explanation of “The Ivory Tower”-concept
>>96724137that's nice but can I bang ciri
>>96724143Making baseless claims like only one person in these threads isn't a death cultist, huh?
>>96724144Changes to Curses & Banes Page:>The manner in which your embrace may go wrong, mutate or enhance has been slightly changed and added more options in an attempt to make more use of the page as a whole. Since OG VTM does not really support taking Banes as drawbacks, this is my best answer for a lore-friendly in-world way to collect more curses/banes for more potential power in the CYOA-format.>More curses and banes were added for the new doomed bloodlines.
>>96724160Changes to Blood Powers Page:>Renaming of some Disciplines to align more with VTM>Changed the way power is measured to align more with VTM>Powers are now defined in three categories, Common, Rare and Obscure based on how likely one is to ever encounter them>Added a way to unlock new disciplines in similar fashion to that of VTM>Added more Disciplines to align with Doomed Bloodlines
>>96724167Changes to Blood Sorcery Page:>Thaumaturgy now has paths defined for it>Assamite Sorcery, Necromancy, Koldunic Sorcery and Thin-blood Alchemy were added with only their base paths (seriously there are too many fucking paths, if you want some obscure path from god knows fuck whatever edition book, then headcanon it in using the same point and power structure).
>>96724174Changes to Your Sire Page:>Trimmed down to focus ONLY on your Sire.>Split traits into Personality traits for your Sire and the circumstances of your Embrace which include around double the amount of new choices>Added Support to roll for Sire traits and circumstances>Added Upgrades for Sire traits and circumstances>You can now have a smol sire
>>96724137Put the title on the imgchest.
>>96724192Changes to Character Page:>Added Abilities and Attributes>Added Candidates which are your initial pool of viable options to use as Blood Dolls, targets for Ghoulification and later the Embrace
>>96724120No it is. I said (You) will die someday, I'm not speaking for others just (You) as an individual who's scared of something he can never escape.
>>96724137Sylen... I knew you would deliver
>>96724201No, I don't think you understand the point others are making in this conversation, which is to counter your appeal to nature fallacy.
>>96724199Changes to Sanguine Community:>Doubled the amount of Contacts>Re-balance to some disciplines amongst contacts>You can now unlock disciplines through contacts and spending hooks
>>96724218Changes to Your First Nights:>Attitude and First Impressions moved to this page>Dark Gifts were expanded with new options and more variables to make them unique choices>Added Support to designate Candidates for some Dark Gifts to boost them>Added Notoriety to track what a bad boy you’ve been>Added Wealth to track whether or not you’re a peasant blood sucker or not
>>96724152>Baseless claims >>96724045>Cristian
>>96724223Changes to Chronicles:>Added quests and rewards because every good CYOA has this nowadays
>>96724230I know first hand more than one person has replied to you, anon.
>>96724137Lesssss gooooo
>>96724236Fin. The sun rises in the distance once more.>>96724207My apologies.
>>96724137>there are no trap choicesIt’s hilarious that authors feel the need to say this because of some vocal idiots
>>96724137Gimme a sec.
>>96724215It's not an "appeal to nature" fallacy, it's a "fictional words on a png file can't make you immortal" actuality.
>>96724259Are you just bringing up random things nobody was talking about before? To, I don't know, search for a better argument? Shut the fuck up already with your wounded pride, you made a shit argument and holes were poked in it. Go read a CYOA or something.
>>96722645Spirits, undead or otherwise, both are fine.
>>967241372.0 come out when I made a build this week, at least I have not write it down yet. 1.0 was pretty bare bone and 2.0 look like it will help with that from the changelog.
>>96724137I see you remove the option to no care about fire and sunlight.
>>96724146Well, technically Ciri can jump and isekai herself into ANY world in existence, so you can in theory bang Ciri. The question is, how can you attract her? You're attractable, right anon?>>96724335You will probably find 2.0 to have taken a different direction. >>96724243Who knows. Maybe I'm just trying to throw off your guard? Maybe im withholding information right now that you will INSTANTLY be destroyed anyway after your embrace. You just never know anon. Do you really trust me enough as an author?
>>96724362>Do you really trust me enough as an author?NTA but you just released a CYOA about a dark world where a sire could reasonably work against you.Obviously I trust you with my life.
Rolled 15, 13, 5, 13, 9, 3, 10, 15, 13, 10 = 106 (10d20)>>96724137I know nothing about VTM but if there's gambling involved, I gotta roll. Quick skim through tells me to roll one for bloodline, one for organizations, five for sire personality, and 3 for behind the curtain. All for +4 Hooks which I got no idea what to use for yet.
>>96724223>No psychotic vampire love poetryAww.
>>96724384>Bloodline: Followers of SetAffinity: Obfuscate, Presence, SerpentisCurse: The Light (Bane Tier)>Allegiance:Anarch Movement>Sire>Traits/Personality:Traditional +1 Favor +1 FameHumanity Intact (Half negative or double position favor.)Depraved +3 Favor -1 FameUnappealing +2 FavorPossessive Protectiveness +3>Behind the Curtain:Master in the Shadows +3 FavorPromised to Another -3 FameTurf Wars +2 FavorWell, honestly not bad. Sire is an Anarchist Set which makes sense if they reject Cain and other traditional teachings, and they're honestly pretty cool even if they're a fat ugly bastard. Their blood may lay stagnant but the heart still knows what it wants. If only they didn't decide to take me along for the ride and piss everyone off in the process. I can work with this though. Hopefully I'll be done building in like an hour or so.
>>96724358You can lessen their effects with Unnatural Embrace. I am suggestible to feedback, but this being VTM, the sun and fear of fire is lore-wise crucial. Its not so bad when you consider the vampire condition. If you're into extreme solutions though, check out the chronicles page.I'm suggestible to feedback though if others also think the Unnatural Embrace section should be enhanced with more options to defy the status quo.>>96724373I admire your courage anon.>>96724384God tier attitude. I'm sure your Sire will love you.>>96724392I'm just not good at poetry,my deepestsincerestapologies
>>96724279This whole conversation has been about entitled anons acting like you're killing them in real life by not saying their imaginary friend will live forever.
>>96724362>how can you attract her? You're attractable, right anon?A fucking peasant attracted her, I'll do fine
>>96723282>>96723364Trust the plan. He will return with OC and banish the darkness.
>>96724512That peasant was the Northerner of the Witcher verse
>>96723975Aging should theoretically be solvable (though desu I doubt humanity ever gets even that far), but how tf are you going to stop random accidents from killing people? You turn the entire world into a padded room and you still wouldn't hit 0%. People are always going to die, anon. The second law of thermodynamics demands it.
>>96724623Nobody in conversations like this is ever talking about anything but death from old age or disease, anon.
>>96724554Does Charli have a Mistle?
>>96724137I probably blind or stupid, but why is ancient and medieval considered more difficult than revolutionary when they give more starting points?
>>96724137>>96724362Forbidden Tome is learning boost for a disclipline you have or did it do more ?
>>96724623It depends on how you define humanity and how you define deathIf you count clones as the same person then it's pretty fucking easy to completely stop death, people just occasionally get amnesia
>>96722671Better than anything you've made, oh wait you haven't made shit you fucking rubber lipped, porch monkey piece of shit.
>>96724152...dude, he is baiting, from the very beginning
>>96724697Your sire won't have sex with you :(
>>96724137>must unlock disciplines>sires can only have 3-0 unlocks of common disciplinesSires can only have 3 common disciplines? No sorcery?
>>96724554Iakowe could hit it if he wasn't going to be 60 by the time I'm an adult again desu
>>96724697Your are a noob in a lobby of world champions, look at page 4 and understand that Elder&Ancient level is what peoples of your generation are able/can learn to do and that a weaker but more experienced vampire can eat you to get that potential.
>>96724756And what proportion of the other men could do so?Could it be that you just have a low bar?
>>96724779Quite low, actually. Fictional men are better than real ones.
>>96724730You can know the Discipline, only states it should not be a Discipline you have Affinity in.>>96724697Less Favor and you risk entering the modern nights as Childe of so low generation you cannot defend yourself competently enough for any would-be diablerists. Its far more risky.>>96724749Unless your Sire is of the respective Clan. Admittedly, it would be a good choice for bonus in the future for low generation Sires. Maybe you misunderstand though. Its 3 bonus common disciplines ON TOP of the 3 clan heritage disciplines you get.>>96724512Skjall was an agrarian chad. Sorry anon. I dont think you can compete.
>>96724796I meant what proportion of other men from the cyoa2d is always better then 3d
>>96724804Oh. Still depressingly low, because >half the men in OR are effeminate and I'm not into that.
>>96724734arosimps are silly

>>96724845yes
>>96724664They're dying of obesity.

>>96724899If the legend is to be believed, all second generation vampire have long been destroyed and 3rd generation are clan founders. Only one madlad has ever succeeded in diablerising a 3rd gen vampire. Dont forget, the only 1st generation vampire is Caine himself.>>96724881You're correct anon. Hooks are relatively easy to come by though. I'm sure you will manage.
>>96724885you are not gonna affect him that way, the only time i have seen him altered was in the Christianity/bible rants he wrote a few months ago.>>96724864>questioning the value of diet and exercisea fat American wrote this, you just know it
>>96724899No, the blood would be too strong for you>>96724137Is there no way to avoid the sun bane in this version?
>>96724899Go back in time and embrace Caine to become 0th generation.
>>96724938He's moderately famous, particularly among the techbro faction of the currently-ruling party.
>>96724970I have literally no idea who that is
>>96724797>>96724765>Picking gen 4 is bad because of scary diableristsJust make your sire a yandere for you and upgrade possessive protectiveness, then diablerie them once you're strong enoughI'm not evil enough to do it but it's an option
>>96725007As stated in the CYOA, there are no trap options. There is always a way.
>>96725007>diablerie them once you're strong enoughyou don't deserve her anon
>>96724998His name is in the post you replied to. I just posted his face and told you people know his name. You can do what you want with that, I'm not a fan, I'm just providing context.
>>96725050I'm just pointing out that it's an option, I wouldn't do it
>>96725007I don't think it's bad, just something to take into account when making your build, I want Obfuscate anyway but for a fresh gen 5 Ancient Obfuscate would be great, with Elder Fortitude to counter mental Disciplines and non-banes sneak attack.
>>96724236I may be stupid, but how many Chronicles can we take?
Yo, I got a request on theme for this thread. We have any good 'you become some dark creature and gain powers from others' cyoa's? I know there's that one I can't remember where you're essentially a presence inhabiting an area, that ones pretty good. Any others as well?
>>96724137Is Not Of This World the isekai option? Does the Character section just ego-death you now?
>>96725100I see now the text for Chronicle got jumped a little, but you may pick three chronicles and one extra chronicle if you team up and make a coterie for every extra member of your coterie. So a coterie of four can pick seven chronicles.
>>96725130No, you still live in real life.
>>96725130You do not experience ego-death. But skills/knowledge do not transfer. How is this possible? Magic.
>>96725215That actually makes sense, thanks
>>96724160Huh. I haven't looked through exhaustively yet, but do the changes here, and the fact that Sun Bane is now applied at all generations, means I can no longer make a vampire that lounges by the poolside? (Outside of Repentance of the Beast letting me drop it down to tier 2, where I would still get second-degree burns?)
>CYOA world is set in an alternate future to the point it circles back to the mundane modernity, but is lying to you.>Shadow government has come outside and is openly ruling the world and dabbing on conspiracy schizos because the public accepts them.>Only 2.5% of the populace has access to powers that shadow government grades and approves of >2.5% who have powers work for the shadow government, live in established hereditary families, or formed their own syndicates to abuse powers or clubs to explore the unknown.>2.5% have also had their powers commercialized for competition sports, publicity, fighting robots, and hunting supernatural entities for money.>2.5% populace girls with powers are more attracted to guys with powers naturally.>You will not be a muggleThoughts..
>>96724137Does Humanity Intact round up or down?
>>96724144Typo on page 2 at the bottom, should be "Thou shall not"
>>96725007>Pick 4th gen and make your 3rd gen sire a yandere then eat her!The funny part isn't just that this has literally played out before in canon (genderflipped in Brujah for example,) but that this ALSO happened with a 3rd gen and their sire (Absimiliard and Zillah) and Caine basically did this to Lilith (though in his defense, God specifically cursed Lilith such that everyone she loves will betray her, so it's his fault.) So you're basically engaging in classic VTM vampire shittery.
>>96722349>didnt make OC the OPYou retard
>>96722393BASED
>>96725268>2.5% populace girls with powers are more attracted to guys with powers naturally.Why include this
>>96725267[The Sun] is THE core bane for kindred. There are ways to mitigate it, circumvent it and possibly ignore it for some time. But they are in no way meant to be easy or achievable for the average kindred. Having high Humanity and Ancient tier Fortitude may allow you to pass for a human with very delicate skin towards the sun. Repentance of the beast on top of that, and you would probably become a legendary daywalker amongst vampires.>>96725269Whichever is favorable to you.>>96725328Thanks!
>>96724137I don't really get the point of Humanity Intact's upgrade. If I'm understanding it correctly, it pretty much only allows 7th generation vamps to do Path to Golconda. So it only gives you a benefit if you choose a 6th gen sire, otherwise you can take it normally as I don't see any exclusive restrictions to the Chronicle. I was originally building around it since I got Humanity Intact in my roll and thought opening a path to go down to by upgrading with Favorable Beginnings would be cool but it seems to be open to anyone 8th gen or lower.
>>96723104>Purchase yourself outWhy bother, just finish the job. Can't have you hunting greyflesh or chimaera warrens if they no longer exist.
>>96725471Yeah you're right. Sometimes I lose oversight and admittedly I wrote the Chronicles a little late. It might be changed if I do a balance update in the future to make it make more sense.
>>96724137>https://imgchest.com/p/6eyra829g4p>no trap options>picking 3rd generation kills youHow could you do this to me Sylen. My trust? shattered. My dreams? Broken. You have left behind but a husk of a man.
>>96725369To narratively explain why anon has a chance with them despite being anon
>>96724137Does picking Unnatrual Embrace cost or gain 2 Hooks if you're from an ancient generation? Wording is confusing.
>>96725335>Pick 4th gen and make your 3rd gen sireThe gen you pick is the one of your sire, if you pick 4th (you) are 5th.
>>96725378>[The Sun] is THE core bane for kindred. There are ways to mitigate it, circumvent it and possibly ignore it for some time. But they are in no way meant to be easy or achievable for the average kindred.Makes sense. Just I could do that pretty simply in the last version, and I liked it, although naturally I recognize that doesn't fit well into the vtm setting.
>>96725267>(Outside of Repentance of the Beast letting me drop it down to tier 2, where I would still get second-degree burns?)With some clothing, staying in the shade and Fortitude you should be able to, take the curse that make you really pale to explain the precaution.

>>96725511Is it really a trap if the choice outright states you will die? anywas, gotch, you idiot, you really trusted me, dumbass, you will always die when you play my CYOA, only you though>>96725543Cost. The price increases as the closer you are to Caine the less likely things are to go wrong during an embrace>>96725552This is correct. Did I write it wrong somewhere? I tried to be very clear this time around.>>96725557Well, right now it allows you to pick path to golconda with a 6th gen sire (you being 7th then), but nothing more than that at this moment. I might do a complete rewrite though as it is a little lame right now>>96725587If the older version is more to your liking, its still playable>>96725620I listened to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PIAk55wGvPA when making the CYOA
>>96725552I don't care, I'm just talking about how being a total backstabbing piece of shit to your sire who loves you just to gain power is a classic thing for VTM vampires going back to Caine himself.
>>96724921Yes I know all second gens got killed. But Caine is still around. He might be a cab driver in LA, just ask him to suck you off till your dry then feed you his blood. I'm sure this won't go wrong in anyway.
>>96724160Why is Empathy a curse? it seems like it would let you keep your Humanity.
>>96725661>I tried to be very clear this time around.You did, the first sentence under each gen is "your sire was of the x gen which make you a y gen".

It's obviously retreading old ground, but I think it adds enough cool variation to distinguish itself. I will say I'm not a big fan of one-size-fits-all CYOAs that can be applied to different settings, in the same way I'm not a fan of multiverse or planeswalking. It waters things down too much. I really enjoy the tradition in this general of nodding to or building off of older OC. This one reads like a mix of S.C.R.A.P.P.E.R., that one that sort of mixes 40k/Star Wars, Stardust, and a couple others. Self insert build next
>>96724921Zapathasura is right there having been nuked like 3 times, ripe for the picking, just diablerise him. (Side effects may include: Getting sunlight nuked, having your soul consumed, lowering your humanity, black streaks in aura. (Consult your tzimsce to see if antediluvian is right for you))
>>96725543I fixed the wording in the IMGchest version.>>96725715Empathy in this instance is not in your control, you're lorded by your emotions both bad and good. High Humanity is composed morality. You know something is wrong, therefore you dont do it.>>96725756Nope. Not unless stated and I do not believe any have that statement.
>>96725524Waifufags will see and thinks there's nothing wrong.
>>96725795There isn't, it's like getting upset anon chose to be blond because it means women are statistically more likely to find him attractive. Is that mind control? Is that evil, to have blond hair?
>>96724797>Its 3 bonus common disciplines ON TOP of the 3 clan heritage disciplines you get.You don't have affinity with these, correct?
>>96724241Would taking Way of Fire from Koldunic Sorcery then Path of Golconda lower your Fire bane to 1?
>>96725802>Is that mind control?Yes. All attraction is a meta-game of trying to to get the other person to do what you want by making yourself appealing.
>>96725713Cain is the second most powerful bein in the World of Darkness, he's dbz levels of strong. His mere gaze is probably enough to vaporise you, let alone his bite .
>>96725827>Cain is the second most powerful bein in the World of Darkness#1 most powerful is the SINGULARITYTECHGODS ALWAYS WIN
>>96724137Awesome! It's really impressive how detailed it is. The added characters and the changes to embrace especially.
>>96725802No anon, he's literally calling you bitchless virgin who can't pull without a miracle or a fluke.
>>96725830Not the strongest is Top G.
>>96725802Imagine preferring southlanders over northmen. Couldn't be me.
>>96725844>You're a loser because you have blond hair!Hmm...
>>96725816That is correct. As long as you unlock koldunic sorcery BEFORE going on your path to Golconda.>>96725814Nope. Affinity is ONLY if specifically stated so. Such as Clan Disciplines or those you get through Unnatural Embrace or similar.>>96725836Thank you for the kind words anon. I enjoyed it and had a lot of fun diving into VTM lore.
>>96724160Should probably state that Temporis is dangerous to use, otherwise it just seems like a better Celerity.
>>96725928It is? where does it state that in lore? maybe i missed it
>>96725887>Anons can never hoes without the author narratively intervening on their behalf. This is obviously insulting to anybody with a shred of masculine pride.>BLOOOOOND HAAAAIIIRRR REEEEE!!!I can't tell if you're genuinely retard or just acting like one.
>it's the sperg that seethes about brown hair againhere we go
>>96725953I, as a neutral arbitrator, think you are probably the retard because of the Irrational and overtly social way you think
>>96725932Thought it was on the wiki.Also, what can the Soul Host methuselah teach? Could it help learn your disciplines quicker?
>>96725268Looking forward to your wip anonIt's the psychic power one right?
>>96725369Personally I would just reinterprate it as all people with powers magically becoming good looking standard movie logic all the heroes are just good looking
>>96725268>>2.5% populace girls with powers are more attracted to guys with powers naturally.2.5% is too low, all women are naturally more attracted to powerful men. This arbitrary percentage is more of a restriction than the boon you think it is.
>>96722393I like to have it as a reward for completing some kind of big task. It doesn't really fit as something you buy with points, but it can be a powerful motivator to politely nudge players in a certain direction.
>>96725268The idea is fine but if the powers are genetic why have muggles at all?One in forty is common enough that the genes can't really be limited, and even if they were historically that has never workedPerhaps muggles do have some power, and it's one that is good for the shadow government. Perhaps they are basically human batteries that cannot tap the energy themselves. Something like that would be betterIt sounds like it will be decent but it will need strong waifus to be goodGodspeed anon
>>96724137No Kuei-jin?
>>96725953Why are you mad about blonds though?
>>96724797>You can know the Discipline, only states it should not be a Discipline you have Affinity in.Yes but what does it do, learning boost or something else ?
>DisciplineThe "stop having fun" word.
>>96726236>Tok having Entropist flashbacks.kek
>>96726236Tok...
>>96726236Tok seethes to this day
>>96725925One more question if you don't mind. So for further learning disciplines, we can only naturally grow based on the ones we have affinity for from our Clan Heritage and the unlocked ones would just be static and never change from their starting potency. If that's true, are Blood Sorceries subject to the same limitations as they are so similar to disciplines in that its origins ties to the Cainite Curse and vitae manipulation? What I'm really wondering is if its possible to learn Koldunic Sorcery further after unlocking as its not based on the same systems as the former disciplines/sorceries, and additionally learning the other paths of Koldunic Sorcery outside of your original.
when was the last time Rake showed up in the general?i fear he just decided to stop.
You should actually stop having fun if your idea of fun is, for example, fucking a horse.
>>96726020I can see that now. Maybe I will add that knowledge later on.The Soul Host methuselah is of independent will. Much like Johnny Silverhand in Cyberpunk. They're there. They see, feel and hear everything you do. But if you want them to spill the beans on the deepest darkest most wettest secret ever, you gotta butter them up. Have your own little story arc with them maybe.>>96726173Not this time, unfortunately. If I added them I would also have to add the afrikaans vampires and all the other freaks of the night around the world. Just not interested in doing that.>>96726204Yes. Its a general learning boost beyond the ordinary and could potentially take you all the way to Ancient potency if you crack the code within. Remember your Sire gave up.>>96726446Yes, you can learn Koldunic Sorcery further. Sorcery is usually unique in that its mostly taught. Having a teacher, access to a library or a specific tome or a Soul Host or a talking skull are all viable ways to mayhaps learn further beyond what the CYOA hands you out the gate.
>>96724137Is Bardo what is being done in the Path to Golconda? How come the Salubri clan doesn't have Bardo as an affinity when it's the power that explicitly accomplishes their goal?
>>96726532A couple weeks ago
>>96726600Bardo is the signature Clan Discipline of the Children of Osiris, who hate vampires and hate being vampires even more than Salubri. They're not a Doomed Bloodline because they're largely already extinct and I thought the other bloodlines were more intriguing and I ran out of space. But there is a Contact who is a Child of Osiris, which gives you an avenue to learn the Discipline. Same way there is no Old Clan Tzimisce option, for the same reasons.
>>96724144>Rolled>Roll VentrueYuck.
>>96724137Starting as a VTM vampire in modern nights... Not sure I can imagine an interesting story from this.
>>96724137Is getting rid of Vampirism through meditation from the Path to Golconda basically delayed Cursed No More?
>>96726535Do we have to spend all our blood or can we save them until we get more from Chronicles and such for bigger purchases.
>>96726668You dont have to like your Clan. Defect early and try to blood bind yourself to a new Master for teachings and headpats.>>96726696Thats okay anon. Its not for everyone. Maybe my next CYOA will be more your cup of tea.>>96726707Well, yes and no. Golconda isn't a final destination. Its a path, that you have to stick to. If you suddenly slip back into your vampiric ways of murder, blackmail and scheming all the time, you will lose the benefits of it. Its somewhat vague in the lore whether you can regain Golconda after having lost it.>>96726709You can save your blood just fine.
>>96726446>the unlocked ones would just be static and never change from their starting potencyYou can't train them ? I thought it was just harder without Affinity.
>>96726446>>96726834To make it clear. You can absolutely train any unlocked Discipline. You just need a teacher (or similar, like a book or different source of knowledge) or similar to teach you if its not a Clan Heritage.
>>96726807I actually just wanted to see if people would react to me saying 'yuck' to rolling the most popular Clan.
What possesses someone to post obvious bait in the middle of an OC release?
>>96726807In terms of the effects of Bardo, older vampires i.e. methuselah or antediluvians, require Vitae to have the same effect as human blood, would this requirement be reduced by Elder tier bardo and would Ancient tier help further?
>>96726890maliciousness, obviously, possibly even envy
>>96726892Bardo is very effective against other Vampires, so yes. Methuselah or older vampires have likely already dealt and fought against the Discipline, so they would know some manner of defense against it. These are like +3000 year old entities we are talking about.
>>96726696IIRC, Thin-Bloods in v20 had an interesting ability to develop new Disciplines. But this cyoa seems to be closer to v5.
>>96724137Is this saying hard pacifism is a requirement? That's literally a death sentence in this dark world.
>>96727009I see nothing explaining anything about thin-bloods in the V20 sourcebook. Thin-bloods from my understanding are mostly explored in V5
Rolled 2 (1d3)>>96724137I have three builds ideas for this but I got struck with choice paralysis, so I'll let the dice decide for me.>1: Amoral Brujah anarchist who spends his time slinging drugs, guns and humans across the border only to spending all of his hard earned money on parties, sex and drugs, repeat the cycle ad infinitum.>2: Batman-esq vigilante Assamite that haunts the streets at night, hunting criminals, caninites and other spooks.>3: Malakvian Black Hand Terrorist.
>>96727127Assassin's Creed Batman it is.
Alright, I'm headed off for the night. Will be here to answer questions tomorrow as well.>>96727031I would say that self defense is allowed. But that you should try to at least avoid taking life. You shouldn't go out of your way to destroy or kill someone even though they might try for your life in the future. Thats the trade.
I need someone to post a build so I can wrap my head around the Sire portion of the cyoa. Also, am I remembering this wrong or are vampires from VTM unable to fuck?

>>96724137Why is are the dices weighted?
>>96724137The fact you can't train a Discipline you don't have an Affinity for without handout is annoying.You need to find a niche and stick to it. Or if you want to get really good at more Disciplines, max social and mental manipulations to get a low gen to teach you or groom a high gen into eating a low gen, train in what you want to learn and then teach you.Maybe building to turning back into an human and then trying to awaken is the best plan.
>>96727426Why would you expose yourself as a readlet?
>>96727512Because he wants the truth DESPITE being a readlet. Why do you ask questions as a child?
>>96727049This is from Beckett's Jyhad Diary.
>>96723975"Experts" think that the first biologically immortal people have already been born, meaning that a medical response to aging will be created within their lifetime.But they're also allegedly those that are under five years old, so we missed the bus.Then again, "experts" are wrong all the time. Maybe it won't happen for centuries, or it will happen within 30 years. Who knows?Lucky me, I don't have to worry about that. I have MS and will be dead by the time I'm 75. Hooray and huzzah and all that jazz.I don't have to worry about getting old unless the tests they're doing in Toronto come to fruition and they can reset an entire immune system, which opens up an entirely different can of worms, but would stop autoimmune diseases like MS and HIV.
>also talking about that made me all sad and i cant be doin with that so have some one pagers
I am in talks with a dude that is in the test. Apparently it worked (mostly) but now he has the immune system of a newborn baby, and is living in a sealed room in the hospital until they can introduce minor diseases to him so he doesn't do when he leaves.The common cold could be commonly lethal to him right now. He's getting a crapton of vaccines poked into him, and they STILL don't know if the MS will come back.
Can't be more worse than I feel right now. I'm on enough immunosuppressants that I'm sick all the time, anyway.
But enough of that!MimicChads - you're the coolest dudes in the thread.Yes, I am 100% biased, since I am one, too.
>>96727641>immunosuppressants>suppressors of imminitiesWithout context I'd think it was poison.
>Also this one is kind of weighted to fuck with you, so when you do the d10000 roll, just use the amount of same numbers.>As in, a 5375 has two '5's, so it counts a dubs for the roll. A 7771 has three '7's so would be trips, despite the final number ruining the 4chan-recognized requirement of the final number, and so on.
>>96727693I mean, it kind of is. It's killing my b-cells and keeping my antibodies real low.But at least my white blood cells aren't eating my brain, for now.
>Keyboard!>FUCK YEAH!
>>96727697Evreything in Intuition. Everything in Charmed or 1 in Charmed to put everything else in Lucky are the top 3 options.
That'll be it for now.>As a thought, there's no rule against you having multiple elves.>Get one for the whole family, or take an entire family for yourself!
>>96727759I don't know what's worse morally - separating the girl from her family or keeping them together under your thumb.
>>96727766>morallyYou don't need morals in your fantasies.
>>96727766Depends on the thumb in question.If you're an absolute bastard, they'll be happy they're apart, just only just because they know the other one isn't dealing with the horrors you're subjecting them to.Families generally like to stick together during hardship.
Did Sylen forget about the gays>>96727794It makes me feel bad if I don't anon

>>96727317*also has Deficient 1
>>96727851>Did Sylen forget about the gaysI'm inclined to ignore that anyway, at least insofar as candidates also slot into your businesses. Seems a little too silly that you cannot -employ- the opposite sex.>>96727854>Why can low generation vampires not pick the Path to Golconda?I'm not even completely sure if it's forbidding 9+ or 7- generation vampires from doing it. I guess thematically probably it would be the latter, with the idea that the curse is too strong in them to be beaten back.
>>96724137
>>96724938Of course not, I'm just venting spleen for health reasons. He's a willfully stupid person who knows what he does is wrong and does it anyway. Every thread always has some low iq person like him seeking attention in it. Happens all the time.

>>96724137Apparently the setting is dependent on consensus reality. So, why don't vampires, mages, and whatever else go on mind control sprees?
>>96728266You just reminded me I never posted that roll build. Still working on it but got decision paralysis thinking about different routes, especially because my build was going to be almost exactly the same as that Mage build that was posted. Even got the Humanity Intact and everything. Though I think abandoning vampirism is lame when you can learn to toe the line between overcoming your vampire nature and drawing from it when need be.
>>96728263You know. Tin skins. Wirebacks. The electronic menace. Clankers.
>>96728329Don't talk about my girlfriend like this.
>>96724137So I haven't gotten far into the cyoa yet (still page 2) but where it says;>'may unlock two [Common Disciplines] of your choice.'Is that for you, or your Sire?
>>96728337botfuckers need not apply
>>96728329They include themselves. It's over.
>>96728355once you got bot you can never go back
Can a non-Salubri learn Valeren?

>>96728349Both. I think it's for the Sire but since every Disciplines your Sire have unlock you unlock too.
someone should make a clanker cyoanot me though
>>96728461When you m->not me though...I accept my defeat.
>>96728447Thanks friend! That makes sense.>>96726668I got Giovanni, (>>96728266) that I'm happy with but also got Sabbat, that I'm unhappy with. So far I think I'm going to play it as my Sire being estranged from the rest of the Clan and that he has since affiliated with known members of the Sabbat since then but isn't a diehard believer and does his best to not step on the Camarilla's toes. I guess in old WoD lore that would make my Sire a Giovanni Antitribu?I'll have to see how this plays out with the rest of the options.
>>96728277Vampires largely don't interact with Mages and Mages would get their asses kicked by Archmages.
>>96724137Are mages stronger than vampires? If so, am I a jobber for playing that OC?
>>96728502Giovanni are an independent (and literally incestuous) clan that doesn't swear itself to any other faction, but is willing to work with anyone who can pay them (generally in favors or resources.) So you or your sire being an official faction member of anyone at all is unusual.
>>96728602Mages vary in power from losing to a vampire to being stronger than any vampire but Caine. Your average mage is stronger than the average vampire.
>>96725994They will sperg about brown hair every day until we hate it.Unfortunately for him, I give no shits about hair color.>>96727619Minesweeper, I desire another 7 computers with the other apps on them. And a free normal stock computer for 8 total.
>>96728604>So you or your sire being an official faction member of anyone at all is unusual.Yeah that's how I felt about it but there doesn't seem to be any mention of the Giovanni's relatively unique position within the cyoa or that the 'Allegiance' section is optional. Unless I missed it which I very well could have.>and literally incestuousAlready planning for that to be part of my Sires backstory if my other roles support it. And explanation as to why he's become estranged from the clan and tie it in with my embrace.I think it'd make sense within the cyoa but may be taking too many liberties within the setting? We'll see.
>>96720526>>96720539>>96720553Thank you for these images anon, I appreciate it a lot. After writing the pact section, though, I've decided to use a pic of a flaming sword for the symbolism, since some of the enemies don't bleed normally. I'm also going to commit a cardinal sin of CYOA design and have asymmetrically sized pages. Probably, I'm not sure if it'll be needed yet but nonetheless.
>>96728738>I'm also going to commit a cardinal sin of CYOA design and have asymmetrically sized pages.What do you mean? Many well-like cyoas have differing page lengths. Are you using different widths?
>>96728613I thought mages were stronger than Caine or even God? Some people even speculated that God was a mage.
>>96728830Different widths, yeah. The first page is 1100 wide, but the second will be 1600 due to having more options.
>>96724192Can you roll for traits and then choose other traits on top of those you rolled for?
>>96728871I don't think anyone will mind since they both fit on the screen.You know what, maybe I should make just one of the pages in my WIP horizontal...
>>96727647I'm sorry to hear all that Anon. I hope you're able to find some joy in this life.
>>96728849God's status is unknown in OWoD. He could be the Gnostic god from which all emanates. He could be the evil world-spirit of the hostile planetoid Wormwood, akin thus to Gaia. He could be the first Archmage who got too big for his britches. All we know for sure is that, one, he's an asshole, two, that he feared humanity's ability to Ascend into Mages and beyond, and thus tried to keep them ignorant and contained (this is what prompted Lucifer's rebellion,) and three, that the Grand Maw/Grandmother is superior to him and loves you like he doesn't.
>>96728979Thanks for listening to my sad TedTalk while I post CYOAs, Anon.Speaking of which-
>>96729121- I loathe when there is a random waifu afterpage on already good CYOAs, but for completion's sake, I will make an exception.Also it can give you more points, which is pretty important for some builds.
>>96727608We love you anon! I'm sorry for your struggles but I appreciate your attitude, and if you're the person I think you are I have enjoyed chatting with you many times, as I'm sure have people in your everyday life. I'm glad we can all connect through this platform and hobby. Wish I could treat you to some dinner.

>>96729203>Wish I could treat you to some dinner.gay
>>96729203>Wish I could treat you to some dinner.>cyoag cookoutNow I know what meaningless fanfiction I will write tonight.
>>96729206>>96729234If you would not buy or cook an ailing friend dinner you are more of a faggot than the saltiest dog at the Folsom Street Fair
>>96729252I'm no faggot. Restaurants are for prospective girlfriends.
>>96729203>if you're the person I think you are I have enjoyed chatting with you many timesDid we meet in the Youtube comments, of all things?And no thanks on the dinner. My ex is treating me to a fancy restaurant and same hanky-panky for helping her move, and I can't be seen cavorting around with a handsome stud like you, instead.No homo.
>>96729253What about family outings? Celebrating your best friend's newborn? Scratch that, socializing with your coworkers? Don't be narrow-minded.
>>96729258I guess I was mistaken, but I'm happy you're here. Enjoy your meal!
>>96729262I don't talk to my family.I don't have friends.I don't have a job.
>>96729240>Tok is not invited, but still shows up, bringing German potato salad that is expired.>/r/cyoa arrives with a woman on each arm, but they leave since he only paid them for so many hours>The entirety of /mcyoag/ shows up and piles out of a single tiny clown car>Jumpchain is present for a third of the party, then just straight up fucking dies, and is replaced by the next Jumpchain thread that was waiting in the bushesI could see some creative fun happening with your story.
>>96729057she*>>96724137So, does the Ominous bane just gimp any social build?
>>96727851You're right. I will fix that.>>96728009Elaborate anon>>96728277Mages don't necessarily exist in the same manner that they do in the World of Darkness. Thats up to your headcanon. Yes, it makes Tremere history and background more dubious, but that could be a good thing.>>96728349Yes, its on top.>>96728385Sure, just have a Salubri vampire as Contact and spend a Hook to learn it.>>96728593>>96728602Mages aren't necessarily canon if you dont want them to be.>>96728642There is a small line about becoming independent, which would serve as the "Canon" option for Giovanni and similar.>>96728886Yes, as long as you roll first and not after.>>96729363It makes being Social more spicy, but would not outright gimp it.
>>96729602>Sure, just have a Salubri vampire as Contact and spend a Hook to learn it.The text mentions a third eye, unless that's just flavour text. Also, typo at the bottom there, should be "strike" instead of "trike". Also, I do love that you used all the weird bloodlines and disciplines without making them too redundant. Much improved from before.
>>96729945The third eye comes from learning valeren,it's not inherently a salubri trait.
>>96728602Werewolves are also stronger than vampires. And so is almost every splat except maybe wraiths.If you do not have at least a couple hundred years under your belt, you a bottom fodder.
>>96729949Oh, ew
>>96722374fug I'm always busy doing other cope activities when CYOAs that I'm interested in finally come out
>>96729253Why is it so hard to not be a faggot these days?You basically can't do anything
>>96729602You mentioned a few monthss ago to maybe add a way to be an Antediluvian, or at least have one as your sire.Was it scrapped or did I miss a combo?
Two 5+ pages OCs dropped in the same day? I'm kind of overwhelmed desu.
>>96730492both getting no builds, lame
>>96724137It's strange, I really liked VTMB video game but couldn't get into this cyoa at all. I guess it was simply a good game regardless of the setting.
>>96730608Give it time anon, they're long ass cyoas.
>>96730671>oh no i cant ignore sun and fire banes!>its all ruined!!!
>>96730692are you mindbroken?
>>96730692I wasgenuine confused when anons started asking for that, do people actually expect a be-the-vampire cyoa to remove one of THE main traits that makes a vampire, next to drinking blood and immortality? are they trolling or did the powerslop brainrot anons to such degree that they can no longer comprehend the idea of a thematic weakness?
>>96730728>did the powerslop brainrot anons to such degreeyes, powerfags are some of the most insecure faggots imaginable
>>96730728One nigga even asked if he can't sunbathe anymore >>96725267 LMAO.

>>96730728>>96730744>>96730771Its readily apparent what kind of CYOA is the most popular trope; the one where you become instantly all-powerful and win, like Entropist or similar schloppa that the masses wil gargle endlessly on.
>>96724137My problem with this cyoa is, why the fuck would you use it instead of vtm rulebooks?Both are character creators, but in rulebooks there are many more options.
>>96730889Just do that then, nobody's stoping you.
>>96728871Heresy. You will burn in tok hell for this.
>>96730940Yes?I sometimes do exactly this.
>>96724137Can someone that know the setting tell me what I can expect of Ancient Animalism ability to siphon powers ?
>>96730959Good for you anon, meanwhile I'm going to keep playing cyoas thank you very much.
>>96729602Are necromancy/thaumaturgy/etc considered rare disciplines for the sake of Accursed Wretch?
>>96729057What makes you think God's an asshole? He's a pretty cool guy. After all most vampires are assholes so the Church is right to kill them. Like technically vamps don't have to kill those they feed from but even humanity 6 vamps which is not that low are killing or kidnapping random people in that CYOA.
>>96724137Is there no way to gain more attributes in the cyoa?
>>96724137Just googled how vampires cant awaken, is there perhaps a means to develop a way to do so anyways? I mean this is awful news... waifus are nice, but i want to be a god some day...
>>96730889>why wouldnt you just imagine yourself as an all powerful being instead of playing ANY cyoa anywayare you retarded?
>>96731070You're looking for Path to Golconda (Cursed No More).
>>96731070This >>96731086, spend your unlife using your vampire powers to hoard magic knowledge and hope once you are human again you manage to awaken.
T-Threadslave?
>>96731310You drove him away... This thread was the last straw....

>>96730985In oWoD?1) He intentionally tried to stomp down on humanity to prevent them from achieving Ascension.2) When the angels rebelled against him because they loved humans so much (though some legit went evil later), he sentenced them all to be tortured into insanity infinitely for that compassion on their part, creating Demons.3) He cursed Lilith to be betrayed by everyone she loves for refusing to submit to Adam, but then also went and damned Eve, Abel, and Seth to the Underworld. He only took Adam to heaven, and out of the remainder he only cared about Caine.4) Seriously, he only wants Caine. In the end time scenarios involving him, God tries to force him to apologize for killing Abel (the guy God damned to the Underworld, remember) if God gets his way he'll take Caine to Heaven then leave the rest of the vampires to die/be damned despite them being victims of the curse he put on Caine, and does nothing to help the end times killing the rest of humanity. 5) His religion is a lie. He is, most likely, an overgrown Celestine or something. He's not above Gaia, he never controlled the whole world, and if he really is the Celestine of Wormwood then he's specifically an evil, imperious, cursed spirit who delights in torturing and twisting things to serve his ego, such is the nature of his planet.6) Humanity is actually ultimately born of the Grandmother, his claims of ownership of them are, again, not legitimate at all.
>>96730728To be fair, anon, Dracula in the original story wasn't hurt by the sun, it just sealed his powers. In the light he was just a normal man. It's really important in VTM lore though.
>>96731537Who is the grandmother?
>>967315373. Is justified. Lillith should submit she is a woman.4 Abel and Eve and everyone else should have repented.As for the apocalypse the world has to end and he does provide a way of repentance so you can go to heaven.
>>96733550The Grand Maw, the primordial darkness underlying existence. Major villain/environmental hazard in Wraith and Orpheus. She doesn't understand that anything aside from herself is real, and only recently woke up, but in Orpheus it's possible to contact her and help her learn that these beings emanating from her are real, at which point she comes to understand them as her children.>>96733682Devil's advocate for god.
