Only if she won't take no for an answer, because I'm obligated to desperately beg and pant. "We, we shouldn't do this, I'm scared..." and that's her queue to continue groping around.

I wish, they typically do that after doing some bullshit to their genitalia that they just HAVE to show Everybody for some damned reason.
>>
I thought of making a scenario where the players are inadvertently the cause of a near cataclysmic event.
I'm thinking that a tzimisce elder is brought into the city ostensibly by a power hungry prince who is considering doing a lacroix, (Well ostensibly he isn't trying to diablerize himself a few generations, but the first and obvious layer after that is that yes he is obviously doing a lacroix) and the players help facilitate moving the casket into the city (Under the oretense that it's a museum piece, and the prince is pretending he wants to either reawaken or burn tge elder depending on what they learn about him), they confront and defeat the sabbat pack trying to warn everyone about the guy being such a piece of shit that his fellow sabbat staked him and left him in there for a reason, and various other small things, and then he wakes up and starts spreading a terrible plague of some sort (I'm thinking revenantised insect/parasite shenanigans)
Anyway my worry is that they will just immediately smell a rat in the lead up. Like the moment there's a spooky casket the story will derail.
Any good ideas for how to start this in a way that makes it less obvious?

Oh also the whole thing is supposed to be a plot orchestrated by another member of the court to clean up the city of unworthy vampire that got out of hands.
So someone slipped the prince the info about an elder ready to be drunk hoping he would be stupid enough to awaken the elder, the elder is awakened and the whole thing cascades because the original plotter thought the elder was a garden variety psychopathic murderer and not the catalyst for biblical plagues.

I've always wanted to make a disipline or sorcery path all about bottling identity, Disciplines, skills etc. If you can get someone's blood, you can make a potion to pretend to be them, borrow their powers, or memories, skills, etc. Never did much with it, also I keep kicking around an idea for a Caitiff discipline for manifesting blood weapons/armor/etc.

Bloodline that leans into "transformation into bat" part of vampire folklore. Their curse is going blind and developing bat-like physical characteristics. The upside is they can instinctively echolocate and with age develop ability to glide, and eventually fly. Can go unnoticed when clothed but being seen naked in public would be masquerade violation.

I don't usually like homebrewing in new clans/bloodlines, as there's usually enough of them already and pretty much all the good archetypes are already taken.

also because I run a fairly hybridized Masquerade + Requiem, there are other "pseudovampires" that can exist alongside Kindred to fill folklore niches Kindred don't match up to. I did re-introduce the Mekhet as a "lost clan", since there is a "lost" Antediluvian named Mekhet. They're highly secretive, have Salubri-tier numbers, and always pretend to be other clans or outright Caitiff.

The "modern audience" can't imagine a life where you aren't a hopeless wagie. No "I'm a drifter working here & there for enough to buy beer & breakfast" like the 80s & 90s. No summer job that could limp you through to spiring if you budgeted. No living half of the land, etc. Hell not even "I run scams/con games/busker gigs or do light thieving to get by" and that doesn't even cover trustful kids, stocks & bonds you only need to check on here & there, just being filthy rich/family wealth, etc.

Eh, a Christian has communion which has always been a big vampire genre subversion as well as feeding on animals, & as long as they aren't killing it's not too hard to justify. But for Islam the whole blood sucking thing is right out, even feeding on animals is hard for them.

Aka MORTAL SORCERY
pre-v5, thinbloods used to have the power to make new disciplines entirely, and the easiest way to do that is to adapt mortal numen into disciplines.
Thinblood alchemy is a straight-up nerf they tried to market as a new mechanic.

Well seems like the cat is out of the bag on crossthreading, again a curse be upon you OP.

I wouldn't call KotE racist. Poorly informed? Yeah. Ill-conceived? Sure. An entirely differently splat forcibly grafted on to VTM at the expense of both itself and VTM? 100%. But racism requires negative prejudice, and if anything, KotE was too busy sucking East Asia's dick to look at the region more objectively.

>>96895735
There are many potential copes. The Qur'an is very clear that you can engage in haram acts if it is necessary for your survival. Eat the pork, drink the booze, it's fine if you have no other choice. Prayer is supposed to be done a certain amount of times a day, but if shit happens, just make it up tomorrow with extra prayers. Thus, you could easily apply that logic to vampires "needing" to drink blood. Of course, you could just as easily make the argument that you don't "need" to drink blood as a vampire, you won't die, just freak out/go into torpor. And thus you reach the "walk into the sun" followed by "but suicide is a sin", "you're not alive though" argument that does not have a clear and easy answer.

In case I needed to clarify, my problem is not with the existence of vampires who claim to be Muslim. My problem is how the official middle east lore is so scarce, and not very well thought out. There has been no such thing as a unified Islam since the Ummayyad Caliphate. But all of the middle east is run by the very basic bitch Ashirra who haven't changed at all since VTDA? And this is just within the microcosm of post-Muhammad vampires. There should be far more micro Ur-Shulgis that range from ambivalent to hostile on the religion. The whole official set-up reeks of Middle Eastern = Muslim = all same, while avoiding any deeper discussion on the region's history, culture, and very real problems.

In human form? Maybe. Depends on if it'd count as a killing blow, or just a called shot: head with like... 5+ successes. But Forsaken are surprisingly tanky. In most forms they can spend an essence to automatically regenerate a number of lethal damage determined by their Primal Urge (supernatural potency). This is before any gifts or merits, of course.

Where it gets really scary is when they enter their hybrid form, Gauru. oWoD fans would know this form as Crinos. Not only does it have defense against firearms (which is true of every form but human and normal wolf) , but every turn it regenerates ALL LETHAL AND BASHING DAMAGE. Even a 2 Stamina Werewolf shoots up to a minimum of 12 health dots in this form, meaning you need to deal 13 or more lethal damage to this wolf in a single turn to have ANY of it stick (max lethal wraps around to aggravated damage). God help you if they have higher base stamina, or any merits/gifts that increase their health. You need silver to kill them once they go full werewolf.

It's like taking the stuff they decided was just not worth keeping from the WoD when they rebooted for CofD in the dice mechanics (shifting target numbers, 1s reducing successes, botches possible on a roll with dice in the pool) and adding extra gimmicks to keep track of.

There's systems and lore precedent for particularly evil vampires having a small army of Larvae at their disposal, so you can have the full fantasy experience of killing shitty vampires in larger numbers while on your way to face down the final boss.

I low-key used them in a Hunter chronicle without my players even realizing that's what they were.

I will preface the story with a statement that I use both Masquerade and Requiem stuff for my games, especially when doing stuff for say, Hunter.

It was a Weird War 2 type of game. Technically, it started before WW2 kicked off, but it was that sort of vibe, very pulp inspired. They went all over the world, fighting all sorts of weird stuff. High exp Hunter: the Vigil. This was towards the end of the game, during the end of the war when Germany was falling apart and the Allies and Soviets were racing to Berlin. I wanted to sell the notion that many supernaturals were using the chaos, death, and total breakdown of public order to do shit they couldn't get away with normally. This included a group of Sabbat that were very Third Reich, and very into the occult. A tiny hamlet of a town in western Germany was already throwing up the flag of surrender well before the allied lines had reached them, and the pack leader decided that their treason was grounds for a little "test". They'd already been experimenting with intentional Larvae creation. They attacked the village and drained anyone and everyone they could catch, creating a shitload of Larvae as a cruel, supernatural version of Hitler's call for every last German to die fighting for the Reich.

The PCs, going ahead of the normal allied advance on behalf/with the young Task Force: Valkyrie to sweep for supernatural threats found themselves in a seemingly abandoned village by day, but when night fell, the Larvae came out to feed, and they were in a survival horror situation against dozens of them. Come to think about it, I actually used Larvae another time. If any of my Pulp Hunter players see this thread, that's why that Tzimisce's "brides" were smarter than outright wights/draugr, but unable to really speak. Don't worry Agoston's daughter turned into a proper vampire on account of being a Hunter.

Lotta fun that game. I still miss it sometimes.

Not really, but it's harder to say it's a Masquerade breach when the big brute distraction is a dinosaur that disappears after an hour & not not some spooky vampire related monster.

Thank you. Gosh, Overlord was such wasted potential. The one part where it's actually a horror movie was great, but the rest? Kinda eh.

>>96896465
They did. Everyone involved was quite high experience, and since it was only a party of 3 (we had a fourth but the player had to bail due to scheduling somewhere around the 15th or so session) I often gave them one or two back-up NPCs. This one was really fun since it was a Ventrue controlling the dude via Dominate 5, Possession. I ran with the plotline of TF:V being moderately to severely compromised by Vampires, based on a plot point another member of my group had in a previous game he ran wherein an Elder Ventrue and our Prince claimed to have been involved with TF:V from day one, essentially to make sure that they would only hunt the "correct" monsters. Ordinarily the Blue Bloods wouldn't be so direct but they knew there were very Masquerade break-y Sabbat in the area and wanted to make sure it was done right.

They survived the night, blasted most of the Larvae during said night, and finished the rest off by day. That game was probably my favorite game I've ever ran, being able to go anywhere and do anything with PCs that could actually handle some heavyweight supernaturals was great, especially with a historical backdrop. Same arc also had them facing a Pure pack using a Gift to turn people into Lon Cheney wolfmen (real RAW gift in Forsaken 2e, btw). Other arcs included, in no particular order
>A Nephilim (red-haired giant, not the oWoD mini-template) Ghul (night horrors wicked dead) running a weird pleasure cult across the middle east.
>Khufu risen again, very confused and pissed that his kingdom is unrecognizable. He rushes deep into the sands to find a lost legion of animated Ushabti to reclaim his lands!

Hello, fellow Bloodlines secondary!

>>96895607
Glass Walkers have always been bullshit because as a tribe, they actually have no reason they are better equipped to working 9-5s than anyone else. You can see a big of progression in the first few books that led to this. In the first core it's explained they can live within society by sticking to its fringes and fitting in with organized crime, where sudden and violent outbursts are a plus. Then comes Valkenburg where Brucatto added a lost cub playing American Psycho by getting a corporate job while never leaving glabro. Dark Alliance: Vancouver added Richard Daly, who could maintain his corporate wolf position by being an elder, so actually having ways to suppress and control his rage. But people didn't get that his position only worked with his rank, so writers after just made Walkers with fucking desk jobs.

I was thinking of possibility of a Telltale WoD game, it looks like they announced a Wolf Among Us sequel in 2019 and still have nothing to show for it and with how WoD games go, if they were to start a Mage game today they'd probably release its first episode in about 60 years

In WTA, even if somehow he doesn't soak, all woofs have their Rage to do a last stand once a scene. Regardless of if it was Aggravated or Silver or anything else.

There's too many fundemental differences in how the systems work to simulate that with any degree of accuracy.
>>
>>96896821
Glass Walkers employ each other. Either you work for one of the businesses owned by a corporate woof or you’re a wise guys henchman. Theoretically all the other tribes could do the same, but they’re so allergic to civilization they just leech on their kinfolk’s paychecks (or, in the case of the bone gnawers, are locked into a vow of poverty by their totem)

I really hate the change in RPG art that artists can no longer display their signatures on their work. I feel it cheapens it, and it makes figuring out who made what and who's stuff to follow harder.

Even if that were true how the fuck would that disprove anything that I said?
>>
>>96896894
I think that guy is taking issue with the fact that Glass Walkers don't have any specific gifts or anything that make them better at quelling their rage and co-existing with humans in civilised spaces than every other tribe. There's nothing stopping a particularly civilised Get of Fenris from being just as good at mingling with humans as a Glass Walker.

I can't "disprove" your subjective opinion, anon. Besides, you likely feel so strongly that no matter how much I'd try to "disprove" your opinion, you'd still be posting the same thing again in less than a week's time. You're going to feel your feelings no matter what, so all I can do is make fun of you for being an obvious secondary.

It's a dumb standart meant to avoid backlash when they can't afford to hire the same guys.

>>96896855 ignoring >>96896871 point, Garou would probably win most fights because they have access to multiple actions/turn and better access to aggravated damage on top of a much bigger list of bullshit Gifts and items.
Even if the base template is equalized through the translation guide, the Forsaken lack any faction traits to given them an edge.
>>
>>96896959
I know, what I’m saying is that the Glass Walkers sidestep that issue using nepotism. Also, pretty much all the gifts that let woofs control their Rage and the Curse are homid ones, so it’s not like they have nothing to help with that
>>
>>96895231
Yeah, took you this long to notice? You really are as stupid as they say!
>>
>>96896959
That because most of the human like gifts got put on the Homid bucket out of a sense of "we know damn well how little power concepts we have for them".
>>
>>96896119
More of an annoyance than anything.
>>
>>96895243
Good luck. Maybe use crystal edition, from what I heard it's the most playable version of the game.
>>
hypothetically, if a cainite wanted to live in the wilderness for an extended period of time and avoid garou what would his options be?
>>
>>96895397
Let's see what connections would make sense.
>The Emperor
Probably an Imbued/Sorcerer creation if not Mage related because that's always the easiest explanation for anything.
>The Primarchs
Besides the more obvious matches, I think the Shadow Lords might have some Garou blood in them. That would explain their coward and incompetent nature.

So, Storytellers: do you set you Chronicles in big-shot cities where the official metaplot is already supposed to be happening by lore, or do you keep it closer to what you know by using less bombastic end expansive setting and in favor of, for example, the capital city of your State or Country, if not your bumfuck hometown itself?
>>
>>96896977
Speaking of, how permissive are you with learning Gifts?
>WtA
For Breed/Auspice/Tribe gift I make it immediate at the expenditure of XP, due to natural inclination, meditation "during downtime", and the Tribe Totem kind of having established "subcontracts" with lesser spirits so that they teach those Gift without questions by default ("Oh, yeah, I sense the touch of Cockroach over you, here, go Electroshock people you furry oaf").

For anything outside of those parameters, you either find and chiminage an appropriate spirit that is powerful enough (so low-Gnosis spirits can teach you basic stuff but you can't learn a Level3 gift from a Duracell battery so you better gain access to the local power plant–or at least substation–somehow) or you learn from your packmates, and all of that must be done in active game and takes the appropriate amount of time (immediate/after-you-hold-up-your-chiminage for Gifts taught directly by spirits, the book-default of at least one month if your pack mate is teaching you).

Would you say that that is boring and bogging down the game with narrative XP taxes, or would you agree that that is a measure of holding the whole process to some sense of narrative choerence?

I haven't care for most of the canon metaplot in a while. Sure I can use it for hooks but for the most part it's not really my cup of tea.

Being European, I just keep setting my campaigns in cities close to home. For one, it's much easier to meet a cool elder vampire in Europe, for two, I get to write what I know, plus my players are already familiar with it and for three, my country is a giant unknown in the official lore, so I can do whatever without breaking the WoD lore too much.

Knowing that the majority of White Wolf writers were Americans who didn't know anything about any country outside of the USA beyond pop culture, some of their misconceptions about Europe, especially in non-Vampire books, are pretty hilarious.

I remember there being a small handout that listed a bunch of your inmate powers as a vtr vampire. Is there a similar one for vtm/what are your innate vtm vampire powers?

Oh, yeah, that's the other reason. I was actually curious what WW has to say about Poland and it's the most generic and stereotypical shit out there. Poland = Eastern Europe = Russia = Tzimisce, right? Never saw that shit coming.
Then I realized that overwhelming majority of Polish nobility would be textbook Brujah, there would most likely be some Tremere occultists and Mages running around, while Tzimisce would be hellbent on taking the region for themselves and werewolves would be commonplace. And suddenly the whole campaign started to take shape.

You could let the prince give the players some normal work, so they trust him a bit more.
You could also include some red herings that appear as a possible source for the disease. Like a doomsday cult or a tremere who is pushing his boundaries.

Some artists are just really really bad you can tell who it 8s immediately. Like Chuck Walton's RIFTS art

You could make a bunch of literal toys come to life. Like have a group of little green army men be a pocket task force. Plastic dinosaurs tearing people apart. You could carve fake aliens & have them abduct someone. Hyper intelligent "animals". Heck, make bird & rat ushabti, then fill them with explosives. Possibly make an ushabti that looks like some vampire you hate & have them do something that will lower their reputation or get them red listed. Too bad you cant make shrunk down equipment with it. Having a weapon, car or motorcycle in your pocket would be cool
>>
>>96898110
Taking these sponge toys and diving them Vitae to grow makes too much sense
