Your flaw is that you are forced to troll and necropost. This is the ultimate /v/ clan
>>713145631 (OP)Unironically I think Gangrel would be the most fun.
>hurrdurr furfagIf they didn't have that feature I'd still pick them. Off the grid, innawoods people, close knit community, minimum interaction with the fucktarded masquerade and vampire politics. I'm just not a socialite type. Nosferatu is also there, but introverted as I am I also couldn't see myself living in a sewer like an actual gremlin because of my ugliness. I imagine Malkavians have a ton a fun, but being a constantly hallucinating schizo just sounds like misery.

>>713146623Could be worse, i guess. At least it's not Gangrel.
>>713145952Brujah - formery warrior poets and philosophers, now a perpetually angry rabble of rebels
Gangrel - wild vampires connected to beasts and nature, can shapeshift
Malkavian - mad prophets
Nosferatu - spymasters that live in the seweres, buttfuckingly ugly
Toreador - pretty, social vampires. Think Anne Rice
Tremere - the ruthless vampire mages. They are the "evil advisor" stereotype made manifest.
Ventrue - vampiric princes, always too cool for school, always want to be in charge. The literal interpretation of the "your CEO is a vampire" joke.
Lasombra - "evil" Mediterranian Ventrue counterpart with more religious bent.
Tzimisce - slav vampire, that's your Dracula clan. Can shapeshift themselves and others into literal monsters. The most evil of of all vampires.
Assamite - arabic Hashashin vampires. Imagine if Altair was a vampire.
Setite - Egyptian vampires. Like snakes a lot.
Ravnos - gypsy vampires. They can kindly fuck off.
Giovanni - mobster necromancers. Spaghetti and corpses, boss.
>>713149730More like they'll respect you more if you refuse the embrace. They'll still make you a vampire, but they KNOW you refused.
>>713145631 (OP)depends, which one is the nigger retard clan?
>>713150289Gangrel made a lot more sense in pre-modern days. Now you're just gimping yourself by playing as one or settling for a weird city Gangrel concept.

>>713156816Aren't City Gangrel Sabbat exclusive?
Which is kinda stupid, given that it's Camarilla that's the metropolitan one, while Sabbat is more focused on rural areas. And Texas.

>>713157004Literally every clan can be a CHA build. Even Nosferatu.
>>713146623I got Gangrel bros...
>>713145952Brujah - rebels, artists, and misfits. Prone to aggression and excessive emotions. One of few normie clans.
Gangrel - hobos and outcasts. Believe in survival of the fitters. Can shapeshift to animals.
Malkavian - mentally ill, tend to see prophetic visions and understand emotions deeply. Have twisted side and tend to be tricksters and embrace people for fun.
Nosferatu - ugly as hell but masters of disguise. Absolute misfits. Work as spies, hackers, and assassins.
Toreador - normie vamps. Obsessed with beauty.
Tremere - biggest jews of all clans (literally work like jews as they want to rule everyone but leave mess everywhere). Protected by Ventrue and others, while they work in self interest and only are vamps because their progeny played dirty. Cannot embrace fully others.
Ventrue - manipulative but also highly caring and protective clan. They seem themselves as guardians and maintainers of status quo. Outsiders only see them as rulers and assholes or jews.
1/2
>>713145631 (OP)MASQUERADE VIOLATION!
>>713145631 (OP)>v5>neither brujah or gangrel are with camarilla any longerwhat the fuck?
>>713157287Lasombra - kind of like Ventrue, but horrifically twisted. Strong religious bent, work in shadows and are unhinged. Obsessed with being noticed while they are cursed to be part of shadows. Cannot be captured by any possible media nor can be tracked by things like electronic sensors to the point they'd have hire ghouls to use their smartphones.
Tzimisce - shapeshifters, believe in survival of the fittest, tend to be warmongers. Old version of clan is more chill.
Assamite - arabic vampires obsessed with justice, tend to suck off other vamps.
Setite - Egyptian vamps. Love being evil and get off from misdeeds, and praise snakes.
Ravnos - nomadic gypsy vampires. Master manipulators and tricksters. Their curse makes them wander around forever, like old world jews and gypsies. If they stay long enough in same place, they grow weaker.
Giovanni - Italian mobster clan. Only work within their circles and only approve Italians or Irish. Their bite is so painful, you can die from it.
>>713157338That's actuslly one of the more logical ideas V5 introduced. There are way, way, WAAAY more retarded ideas than this. Like the Lasombra, the creators of Sabbat, being now a part of Camarilla.
>>713157338One of the big driving forces behind V5 is Elders mysteriously being beckoned to the Middle East leaving a power vacuum. It's also why Anarchs and Thin Bloods have a much bigger role in this edition as they're all power grabbing and doing their thing.
I actually like the Brujah. They are a very fun clan to RP if you are creative enough and don't fall into a lazy stereotype of a "triggered SJW".
The last Brujah I played with was an "idealistic paladin" type that always tries to do the right thing and he grows more and more cynical every day, because he knows the world doesn't work that way. And amusingly enough, he was the one character with the most amount of forward thinking.
>>713157535It would be a cool idea, if I didn't know for a fact that this "Elders fuck off to Middle East" bullshit was introduced because snowflake players were bitching that the Elders are ruining their power fantasy.
>>713145631 (OP)Ventrue
>inb4 nobody here belongs thereStfu lorelets
>>713146623>SalubriI don't know what they are but they sound Jewish.
>>713157896They don't exist.
Don't worry about it.
>>713157863Ventrue are generally too rigid in who they embrace, and if someone goes against the grain that new vampire will have an uphill battle to belong. Lasombra, in comparison, are in the same game but also big believers in natural selection aka if you can cut and bring something to the table, they'll get you onboard. Your pedigree doesn't really matter.
>>713157970so they really did use AI in that last game. her earlier design was obviously drawn by someone.
>>713157845>power fantasy>vampires>bottom of the food chain vampires where even humans are strongerreally? power fantasy with vampires?
>>713158069Yeah. And she looked so much better.
>>713157845catering to the larp scene was a mistake in general. they had their mind's eye theater book and should've stuck to that rather than compromising the entire game.
>>713145631 (OP)Who the fuck are Ministry and Banu Haquim? Where are the Giovanni and Setties?
Anyway, Brujah or Nosferatu.
>>713157994Public image and relations is what matters most among Ventrue. As long as you stick to Dignitas and don't act like a dick, you'll be fine.
>>713157994I hate to open that can of worms, but it's why I like the Ventrue from Vampire: the Requiem more. Simply representing a "vampire lord" archetype is much broader and gives you more freedom in what your character concept can be.
>>713158126Just look at the reception V5 got. I don't think anyone outright liked it so much as there were some good ideas in there.
>>713158190Ministry are the Setites.
Baba Yetu are Assamites.
Giovanni are now lumped together with Cappadocians (because sure) and Harbingers of Skulls into one necromantic clan of Hecata. And it's a bit as cohesive as anything in V5. Sure, they ARE technically the same clan, but what a way to water down the individual vibe.
>>713156670Why the hate on the Ravnos? kek
>>713157535>mfw best new games to come out for WoD were those CYOA titles
>>713158236Lore books explain this good enough that it's not necessarily about being lords and more about being strong figures who can manage things well and protect status quo.
>>713158346Gypsies. It's a European thing.
>>713158346Because as a clan concept, they are just lazy.
>what if gypsy but a vampire? And that's where this clan begins and ends. And V5 didn't really improve things, because they just swapped "gypsy" for "pajeet" and called it a day.
>>713158346>Third world hands typed this postIf you were europoor, you'd know exactly why.
Is being a Ghoul worth it in 5E? I remember exclusively making Ghoul-only PC for sessions because I liked Knox a lot.
>>713158531It's more of a "why would you want to be a ghoul?" kind of situation? You don't get nearly as many tools to play with compared to a vampire, you're also essentially an emotional slave to the vampire who feeds you, and other vampires look down on you.
>>713146623why yes, I am already mentally ill
>>713158338There is only ONE thing that I like about V5, to the point I implemented it in my V20 games. And that's the new Tzimisce weakness of needing to be invited to enter someone's property. It's genius, because it both plays into an old vampire myth and into the whole thing with Tzimisce being Eastern European and autistic about the hospitality to the point they find entering someone's house without permission offensive.
>>713158645I don't know, I just think being a Ghoul is neat. I'm honestly surprised that White Wolf haven't commissioned a Choice game about being one yet.
>>713154252I find it interesting how Tremere weakness is either really crippling or totally insignificant depending on your game.
>physical attributed capped to 4Sucks, but you're not playing as Tremere to be a bruiser.
>have to take blood sips from your seven elders, giving you tier one blood bondAgain this shit is meaningless unless your game is Chantry-based as blood bond will wear off provided it's not renewed.
>cannot create blood bonds with other vampiresThis is a V5 thing that's equally as meaningless, especially because you can still do it to ghouls and regular mortals.
>>713158881>physical attributed capped to 4That's not even a thing in the tabletop.
>have to take blood sips from your seven elders, giving you tier one blood bondThis one requires a conscious ST to make use of it. And if the player is an asshole, they can just pick "Embraced wihout a Cup" trait that nullifies that completely. Tremere got off easy compared to other clans, like Nosferatu or even Toreador.
That's why every ST hates them. They are insanely OP, with a lot of benefits and almost no weaknesses.
>>713158881it's sad no anniversary editions, only games people talk about beyond shitting on v5, would not have happened without crowdfunding. does paradox even give a fuck?
So after not having played this in well over a decade I've been wanting to pick this back up again this fall. My first play through only lasted ~30 minutes until the game crashed or something and I haven't looked back since until of recent and what knowledge I do have of it came from here.
Is the game still a buggy mess? I'd be willing to take the time in patching it up if needed. Is it worth it? What am I in for?
>>713159289Were you using the Unofficial Patch? If not, do do. It's mandatory for the game to work.
You might also consider using CQM for more content. Especially if you like Sabbat (who doesn't?).
>>713158645Not every vampire is pure evil, you could be the loyal servant to a nice vampire waifu.
>>713159421Every vampire gets evil eventually, because of the Beast.
>>713159397I didn't bother patching it at all against my better judgement but yeah this time I will definitely get the patches needed. I want it to be as vanilla as possible though aside from fixing the core issues.

Because it's so easy to get the right answers for the Tremere even if you know anything about them.
What's the point of Nosferatu when Banu Haqim has almost the same shit and you not turned into hideous abomination on top of that
>>713160261banu haqim are not really stealth guys by default. assassin is just the public face they present, their clan has much more going on underneath.
>>713160261Well, for one Camarilla would like to have assassins of their own (Nosferatu) instead of outsourcing the work to some unreliable indie clan.
But then V5 happened. We don't talk about V5.

>>713162004Vampires also fuck in tabletop and even outside of it, its just often they don't care for it versus the crack meth epiphany orgasm that is drinking really good blood. Mostly what werewolves do is *suck*
Which fits the fact that a lot of the game basically is a meta comedy on the average eco-cultist actually being a high enough middle upper class income person with a decent quality of life that can dedicate themselves to eco-cultism spouted by usually verbal tradition by cult leaders the exact same way that werewolves by default are middle high power by spiritual boons and conclaves and can dedicate themselves to high effort interventionism with their own entire verbal history storytelling declaring their nature as chosen warriors of Gaia, only for them to take it fully at face value and never truly doubt shit despite the fact that even in written history people change shit around for their own goals
God I hate the Triat so fucking much
>>713162183I have to say that of all the splats, Werewolf aged the worst. This whole eco-bullshit is so 90's, it's painful. It needs an update.

They have like a million Thaumaturgical Paths to pick from that they can mix and match at their leisure, and the system is actually very bad at stating what exactly they can or cannot do. So, a third level of Path of Conjuration just states:
>you can conjure up complex items.Whatever the fuck that means?
And yes, Tremere players trolling their STs and summoning nuclear warheads is a thing. But that's on the Storyteller if he's stupid enough to allow it to happen in the first place.

>>713163190Main check against Tremere is the Chantry. You should NEVER just casually be given crazy shit to use.
>>713146623Salubri huh? If you say so.
>>713162183The sexuality part is always just a giving leeway to degenerate players. In reality a vampire would quickly see "sex" as an easy way to feed from someone. Your sole addiction is BLOOD.
>>713156816I mean, sure, if we're talking tabletop games it's harder to excuse a Gangrel being a part of your party, but far from impossible. The OP, however, clearly stated which one you would be if it were real life, and the last thing I'd want, were I a real life vampire, would be having to interact with normalfags in a city every day. They can't put a stake through your heart if you and your brothers have AK-47s and a fortified compound.
>>713165269you mean you don't want to fuck those larp hunnies?
>>713165269I mean yeah, White Wolf knows most of its fanbase. I mean shit, they basically state Ghosts can fuck with their Corpus, and considering some of the art that the good old spooky boys have, that alone is some fucking nuclear grade I Am Not Touching That Shit tier degeneracy that can beat out Vampires a plenty. You don't want to actually consider the physical or emotional consequences of things like that, there lies some seriously grim shit.
>>713146623Got Malkavian. Not sure what to think about it tbqh I wanted Ventrue.
>>713165638you're Patrick Bateman
>>713165490WW is schizofrenic about it. Because then you have shit like Werewolf, where you can fuck literal magical wolves and it's fine.
>>713165689Its different writers I guess. I think WW doesn't take itself too too seriously otherwise they'd have fucking fixed themselves goddamn ages ago, whipped a few writers into actually working and done some real new paradigm shit but so far they've done nothing but jack to shit about how great they used to be.
>>713146623I'm surprised to not see more Gangrel replies. It feels like the perfect social outcast clan.
>>713165689I think Werewolf is the most blatant examples. In older editions Werewolves mating with other Werewolves was strictly taboo because it would result in a freakish hybrid called Metis. In W5 Metis is suspiciously absent as are the Kinfolk aka humans with latent potential to "awaken" as Werewolves and primary go-to breeders. Now Werewolves just fuck other Werewolves.
>>713165681Is...is that a good thing?
>>713165638not all malkavians are batshit crazy. it's just that the craziest examples always stand out. malks don't get multiple personality disorder by default or something.
>>713165895To be fair, V5 also declared that vampires fuck as well. Granted, at this point most living vampires are thinbloods and 13 gens, but still.
I like the way V20 handled it - by not handling it. They just went "you want your vampires to fuck? Go for it, it's on you".
That's why V20 is the best system. It gives you all the tools you may ever need and tells you to go ham with them.

>>713146623>Gangrelhell yeah, not sure how I'm surprised but hey it's my favorite clan so makes sense I suppose? didn't even pick the shapeshifting or talking to animals ability option, bet it was the I don't want to deal with this shit I just want to run around on top of rooftops option
>>713168275Are you fucking with me?
>>713168346I wish.
No idea is too retarded for V5.
>>713146623>take the test knowing i'm gonna get put in the ugly introvert clan for the ugly introverts>gets put in the furry clanHuh.
>>713167802>>713168026don't forget obtenebration was too cool for school so now you get a gimped version of it called oblivion
>>713168764Whenever I see this or whenever it comes to my mind, I have to wonder if they made it as satire. It's just too much.
>>713168807funi fish malk
>>713168505>>713168779Fuck this shit. And arenโt the ravnos all supposed to be dead?
>>713169035They got better.
>>713165986Being malkavian is double edged sword. On one hand you'll know what's ahead of you, you'll be very perceptive and be good at reading people's emotions, and you'll be able able to hide well, but you'll have random mental illness coming out real soon that will be both helpful and handicap, depending on what it is. The cruel downside is that the lower your generation will be, the harder it will be for you to communicate with normal people and more you will feel madness network flowing through your head, so it's better to be the one who is at least 10th gen or higher.
>>713165937Read American Psycho book and you'll figure it out.
>>713169061Iโm so irrationally angry right now
Over a game I stopped running ten years ago
>>713169035They're basically extinct, as in only 200 alive in the entire planet.
>>7131457344chan is 99% Nosferatu, 1% Malkavian.
>>713146623Got Ventrue. Sweet. Now where's my fancy throne?
>>713165895>red talon humanUnless she's just a lupus that's shapeshifted maybe? What's this from exactly?
>>713169356That's 200 too many for my tastes.
>>713145734Not me, I got blessed genetically, Iโm a toreador. My only weakness is that once I attract someone and the veneer wears off they see that Iโm an autistic fuck and they either stay and donโt mind(rare) or they slowly fizzle out because I donโt know how to emotionally connect and disappear for 7 hours to play vidya.
>>713146623Tzimisce. Can't complain, I really like their powers.
>>713146623Gangrel
How disgusting and disappointing
>>713145631 (OP)The fuck is Ministry?
>>713170301Yeah, I have questions on that as well
>>713170301setites but they got rid of all the Egptian stuff
>>713146623...I am a Tremere.
Turns out they are textbook antisocial assholes, if this test is anything to go by.
>>713170520That's modern WoD for you
least Vampie got off better than Hunter and Warewolf
>>713145631 (OP)Jade Falcon you spheroid scum
Friendly reminder that 20th anniversary books are still available as print on demand.
>>713170634What happened to hunter?
You know what, never mind, I donโt want to know
>>713170757Hunter just became a different book, they just ignored all the older Hunter books lore, stuff like Imbued or the larger Hunter Factions are gone, and now it's just about grassroot activists dealing with sentient toilets
>>713146623>Toreador And into the trash it goes
>>713169471>he doesn't knowred talons accept humans now in w5. they're a minority, but diehards are now a minority faction.
>>713170925Thatโs really stupid. Could I still play as a martyr?
I am an /x/-fag, so much as I would think I would be a tremere I would probably turn out Malkavian
>>713145631 (OP)If I could pick, Tremere for sure. I want fucking magic, even if I'm limited in what kind because I'm an undead abomination.
>>713171135So take the quiz
>>713171114no.
all imbued and creeds are gone
>>713171016>he doesnโt want to be a sexy vampIdiot
>>713171218Whatโs the point then?
>>713145631 (OP)Tremere, tzimisce and malkavians are the most interesting imo
Gangrel and nosferatu are cool too
>>713170925Hunter somehow ended up being the most varied split across all the properties. Imbued, Vigil and H5 are very different games.
>>713171321WW wanted a book where you play normal people fighting monsters and decided it would get more money if it was called Hunter the Reckoning since that an established IP compared to calling it something else
>>713171202It depends on what stage of my life I am on, last year the results would come back as Ravnos now itโs Malk
>>713146623>HecataNever heard of them, but they get magic and controlling disciplines so I'm cool with it.

>>713171425Problem is 5th editions doesn't have the base corebook on top of which you would add a supernatural line you wanted to play as. With that setup there is no baseline human as it got replaced by the Hunter.
>>713169525Fuck you, I like them
>>713171425Thatโs lame. You can easily roll up a normal human in vtm and have them try to fight vampires. Why do away with cool schitzo dudes who might be listening to a voice in their heads? Hell, even hunter had the option to play as someone who fucked up being imbued. Not trying to start an argument about the current state of the franchise, just saying
>>713171562Thatโs just the Chimerstry talking
>>713171397don't forget the dark ages game
>>713171780Imbued have always been pretty polrasing so I can kinda understand what WW was going for but Hv5 is just shit
>>713145631 (OP)What the fuck is Ministry and Banu Haquim?
t., haven't bothered with VtM in 20 years
>>713171901I really loved the vtda setting but my group hated it. It was like pulling teeth trying to get them to do a session
>>713172058Apparently itโs stripped down assamites and setites
>>713145734I know this and Malk are the meme 4chan descriptors, but I think Brujah are a better fit.
>angry>belligerent>occasionally capable of charisma (MEMES!)>cursed to never accomplish anythingI think you fags are making the mistake of viewing Nos in their idealized capacity: fugly loners, yes, but ultra-competent info-hoarders. Very few of us are anything like that.
>>713172070It's a pet peeve of mine, but Dark Ages Vampire annoyed me because it just showed all regions and individuals who endured has some sort of pre-Masquerade set of rules effectively doing the same thing. Baronies of Avalon under Mithras being the most prominent example.
>>713146623>Answer 90% truthfully but with knowledge>End up Toreador>Do it again and rush through with slight modification>Banu Haquim>Toreador was just about as honest but the options are splitMaybe an honorable Toreador, idk. Definitely my brand irl and what I've played ingame and tabletop. The powers are appealing and I know nothing about the Banu. And I'm literally an effete actor artist type irl, I'm just also paranoid and gun-loving.
>>713172303I know this is going to come off as profoundly stupid but, you can just ignore all of that
>>713146623I got Tzimisce, I can dig it.
>>713146623I got Malkavian but there were a couple of questions where I was leaning towards a certain answer but my mind told me that answer would potentially lead me to getting Nosferatu so I picked something slightly different telling myself I still fit into that answer, which I suppose means the quiz wasn't wrong and I am a dumb schizo at odds with myself.
>>713145631 (OP)Old nosferatu clan book for anyone who is interested
https://archive.org/details/ClanbookNosferatu
Reminder boys. Your favorite clan doesn't matter for shit, it matters what vamp gets to you first. Your business ass is likely going to become a fucking Gangrel, and your anti social ass might just become a toreador. Fucking sucks to suck, sink or swim bloodfish.
Daily reminder to laugh at Tremere, the most pitiful of all clans
>>713172954Live, laugh and love becoming the bottom rung of the scam pyramid
>>713172954>be Tremere>get fucked up the most by Second Inquisition
I don't buy the whole "vampires are weaker than humans" shtick if the game being run is one without the technocracy and the traditions. Vampires have super speed, casual mind control, on-demand brainwashing and near perfect stealth. One crafty and cunning elder would be enough to bring Humanity to its knees. I get why they'd rather be hidden, but logically the vampires would win the war if it went hot even accounting for those with true faith.
>>713148916You decide if you want to be a sociopath or a high-functioning sociopath: Modern Tzimmies are more associated with autustic deep-diving into their particular field of interests and expertise... It's just the case(s) when those fields are torture and/or human experiments that have given the clan a somewhat unfortunate reputation. I actually like the recent rewrites of Tzimisce being more integrated in vampire society and having left the fucking loser's club that the Sabbath has always been. Tzimmies generally are the scholarly top dogs in their given expertise and the guys/gals you'll have to deal with (see the afore-mentioned autism...) if you want something done with that subject.
I love this thread. Itโs like old /tg/ before it became the stagnant cesspool it currently is
>>713173016Quiz tells me I'm Salubri lmao
>>713173296>humanity to its kneesLook the truth is most elders don't give a shit about humanity. Most don't have projects worth mentioning or worth caring and most of what they do is torture kindred for fun and profit and for that alone. The only elders worth mentioning as those that can bring the world to its end and desu those mostly just exist because poeple like gehena as a situation rather than because vampires really bring the end of the world as a default. They're sad usually useless but powerful monsters hiding like 5 kilometers beneath the earth on autism bunkers sipping on vamps or being asleep, that's what most elders are.
>>713146623I used to get Banu Haqim but I guess the local Ashirra Imam released a fatwa and declared my treacherous ass an infidel.
>Captcha: P0GSS
>>713173553Maybe, but I'm just saying that in a vampire only setting even one getting off his ass would be enough to deal with humanity should they get uppity.
>>713173513Soul sucking third eyes like you need to be put down
>>713165045Being an Assamite sorceror seems pretty cool: Invisible mystery nigga in the streets, tantric sex magician in the sheets.
>>713147238>Banu Haqim>How? I'm white.picrel
>>713158126Dude, everyone who plays vtm has a little bit of theater kid in them, this argument is invalid
>>713173668Except why would they. The whole point of being an elder is to make an entire power pyramid where you're at the top and secure to do nothing but what you want, having entire structures of power to do what you wish. Camarilla and the Sabaat are that, and Elders don't want to dominate humans if they can just not move an inch. A status quo they can manipulate is best and easiest, especially when they can manipulate people, enjoy the benefits, infiltrate places and generally do squat to survive forever and ever.
Sure, Lasombra himself could stop jerking himself off in the Abyss but he doesn't want to. Same with every other Elder, they're content doing their thing and being in absolute power and switching the world with a flick. Even if most vamps died off, they could just chill, rebuild with their goons and continue, same as happened with the Inquisitons.
>>713173296>the technocracyliterally fucking who
>>713173856This, it's not and has never been (((D&D))) roll-playing
>>713173951Sure, keep telling yourself that. Iโll see you on the stage for Macbeth practice tomorrow
>>713173668You forget vampires have one advantage on their side - if they play their cards right, they'll be around forever. With that you can just outlast your problems.
>>713173819Yukiko has been looking odd lately.

>>713145631 (OP)True Brujah.
Yes I'm autistic as hell.
>>713149343Donโt shit talk the cappadocians, they were the best clan in vtda
>>713146623>malkavianSo did I got that solely when my responses mate make no sense when put together ?
>>713174786Yeah, my soul is doomed either way so I may as well engage in some abhorrent magic without needing to worry about consensus.

>>713145631 (OP)toreador
I'm an artist
>>713175386Itโs cool to be wrong I guess
>>713173296While vampires have that, I think if you got enough out in the open you'd awaken a shit ton of people with either True Faith (if we're talking vampire rules) or you'd have a fuck ton of conspiracy tier groups suddenly sharing info to the common man and giving them things like Benidictions and glownigger tactical tools (if we're taking Vigil rules) and eventually out of all the people that suddenly have knowledge, at least one of them is going to go full Van Helsing/Sullivan Dane and be able to take down elders. Not even throwing pro humanity mages/changlings into the mix here. It's best even strong vampires don't let the word get out
>when the party sees the true faith rating 5 character solo half the encounter
>>713175782>Iโm an artist You sure are
>>713175805I'm sure it is, I'll let you know when I am. Until then, I'll just keep using its excellent tabletop system with the boys
>>713175519You realize real life lore is way cooler right? No one has ever eaten a god. At least, not by any standards which define a god. Our present Abrahamic God exists because the original creator was slain by a spear forged from said creator's sister's spine. As to whom attained and forged that spear, I don't know. Either way, eating a """god""" is way less cool than slaying the Demiurge with the spine of his sister.
>>713175519A priest gets embraced and really doubles down on gods existence. He wants to diablerie god to get to know him better. The clan is really into god, but not like the โironicโ tryhards Lasombra. His clan had a really stupid โcuesโ where you look like a corpse. He did a retarted test for his clan and killed them mostly all off. The head of Clan Giovanni diableried him and that was the end of him, supposedly. The harbingers of the skull popped up so maybe not. I donโt know any of the new faggot shit from v5 so things might have changed
>>713176876Yeah, and I recommend them
>>713176961Any in particular? Do any have a specific order to play in?
>>713177075Swansong is a great starting point
Tzmisce.
I have metal all down my spine, metal hips and a replaced aortic valve. My body is already a deformed mess with three boobs.bo would go all, I would pull myself apart and reform myself into beautiful, but beautiful in my way.
Plus it would be nice to meld flesh with someone, yo join with them, even for a moment. To feel their entire being with you and turke through their flesh. It'd be sacred in the most profane of ways, and the only way this flesh would ever become worth.
>>713146623>Hecatathis is the first time I ever heard of this clan
>Tremere
I'm going crazy with blood magic wahoo
>>713145631 (OP)Which ones are the crazy ones?
>>713175386Let me introduce you to the best thing White fucking Wolf ever published:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orpheus_(role-playing_game)
>no fucking vampires, werewolves or leprechauns>humanity discovers life after death>doesn't believe>but it starts seeping into popular culture, "ghost hunting" but real>and security agencies realizing the advantages of invisible, incorporeal spies>but what's the reason behind some ghosts being... malevolent?The PCs are utter normies, your average (or extraordinaire) Joe off the street, who just got hired by a weird little firm doing research on near-death experiences...
mega[DOOT]nz/folder/P9E2WQhZ#98D5UFzD_gpj1ta9M3ZJ7Q
>>713177517No offense but orpheus isnโt really a game most people would enjoy. I like it but itโs not really accessible
>>713145734niggers can also be brujah
>>713177747It's basically just normies doing X-Files shit in spooky mansions and haunted places, half of all published horror/supernatural RPG material consists of that. You even have the choice of being goody two-shoes and trying to help ghosts move on to their sweet hereafter or just fumigate them and making life easier for the grumpy landlord paying you to make his building livable again.
And boy is it accessible compared to Wraith which Orpheus acts as a setting-followup to...
>>713178263Might as well recommend Prometheus then, which Iโm doing
>>713146623I guess I am a furry
>>713145734Nah I'm a Gangrel as similar as I act like a Nossie I'm not ugly and I prefer to be independent. I'm also just disconnected with everyone around me and I have a connection with animals like w dogs and cats.
I wish Mummy and Changeling got more love. They are such fun concepts.
Seems like the place to do it so Iโm going to recommend this terrible bit of slop that butchered the lore and just in general is a steaming pile of shit.
Kindred the embraced
Itโs shit but I like it
I want the a blood brother
>>713178676Eh, it's passable.
What triggers me the most is that the showrunners had all the IP rights in the world, but still didn't bother to stick to the lore. How difficult it is to just have the lore-accurate clans? They write themselves.
>>713146623>BrujahThe night really brings out the worst in people, huh?
>>713179030No, itโs actually shit. Like, really bad. But I love it. Itโs my slop and guilty pleasure
>>713179286Eh, I guess.
Look, my guilty pleasures are Charmed, Dark Angel and Birds of Prey so I am not qualified to judge.
>>713178470The gangrel are totally not furries, like totally not. UWUโฆ oh, oh noโฆ the pathogenโฆ. Itโs spreading! Help
>>713179514Gangrel are fun actually.
Every clan is fun if you have a cool idea for a character. The worst you can do is to have a stereotype dictate your character.
>>713179353I can tell you have a good love of bad things so enjoy what is terrible
>>713179626That, or a like pretty girls in goth settings. Either works.
>>713176876Swansong is fine. Coteries and Shadows of NY are bad.
If you're okay with text adventure RPGs, Night Road is pretty good - my favorite VtM thing after Bloodlines. Out For Blood is good but you play as a clueless human unless you pick magic stuff and Parliament of Knives is meh. And Sins of the Sires is awful, don't even touch it.
Does anyone remember the prince that was a Joan of Arc fetishist?
WHEN YOUR TAAAAAAUUUUUUGHT THROUGH FEEEEELINGS
>>713179685I love dark shadows soโฆ.
>>713146623Oh so just because I'm not one of those NPCs and believe only in the objective final truth, I am a schizo huh?
Cool!
>>713180018Vampires don't exist, dude.
>>713162345I love Werewolf, but that's because I take it as a very 90's bit of camp. Your entire job as a woof is trying to fix a house with only a hammer. Because your dad threw out all the other tools.
That's pretty funny to me. And when you contrast it with the things woofs do well, it's a good way to show how fucked they've made themselves.
>>713146623Is Gangrel supposed to be cool
>>713176635That seems pretty cool. The dark ages setting seems cool
>>713145631 (OP)Camarilla Lasombra.
>>713177517I'll take a gander anon, thanks. I'm guessing it's more Delta Green over Vigil?
>>713145631 (OP)Where my fellow Nossies at?
>>713180282Does not compute.
>>713179084Now now Brujah don't have to be autistic, you can be one of the good ones
>>713180190You're the most independent out of the vamps and you get animal shapeshifting powers and you can communicate with/control animals. Kino, best in the house in my opinion and literally me.
>>713180318Hiding in the shadows and the sewers
>>713180282>Lasombra but you're a buckbroken cuck bowing down to your rival clan.Genuine KWAB.
>>713180190Gangrel range from being werewolf-lite hippies to poorly thought out allegories for rebelling to genuine deep sea monsters, bloodthirsty wendigos and survivalists that know too much. They're one of the clans with the biggest difference between the quality floor and quality ceiling.
>>713180190They are pretty cool. The best VtM boy is a Gangrel. Granted, he's like a hundred steps below the best girl Aisling, but he's cool enough.
>>713145631 (OP)Toreador in the house. Don't hit on me silly vampires. Also don't touch me with your filthy hands.
>>713180190WORK OF ONE WHO CONSORTS WITH BEASTS!
>>713180391Gangrel are homies and I'm not just saying that because the last vampire i played was a Caitiff that larped as a Gangrel to hide the fact he was clanless
>>713180530>Something to look forward to hmmm?Why was he such a dick to malkavians?
So... is VTMB2 ever coming out?
I have a intense urge to talk about Dracula in this setting but he is really lame. It sucks because he had a really cool introduction in the first rule book talking to Mina
>>713180694Don't open it.
Even if it does ever come out, it's going to be shit.
>>713180393You keep believing that, bloodbag.
>>713180694Didn't it get soft confirmed for October this year?
>>713180826Idk, I just remember the bloodsucking animation being laughably bad
>>713180820Shreknet nonsense
>>713180771Yeah, imagine my disappointment when I found out the might Dracula is just some run-on-a-mill neet Tzimisce. He's not even that powerful, he just wrote a bestselling fanfic about himself under the pseudonym.
>>713145631 (OP)I'm a super genius archmage that stands alone... alone, but above the competition. Heh, sorry, but none of you are on my level.
>>713180883To be fair it's all laughably bad and the only reason I'm even half paying attention to it is because I want to fuck the big tit vampire (you will not be able to and I'll be glad I didn't buy the game)
>>713180694Yes but it's gonna be watered down to a 21 year old game due to game corporatization and pandering. It's gonna be as much as an rpg as Cyberpunk which just larps as one. Why the fuck are they labeling it as bloodlines 2 when they're not bringing at least the aesthetic from the first game the 2000s goth setting was peak why the fuck did they make it in the gay modern day
>>713181012Your progenitor is a worm.
>>713180959I thought Dracula got killed by Van Helsing in setting. Or maybe that was Vigil. Gonna keep it a buck, it's hard to remember what came from where on lore with there being WoD and CofD
>>713180694Why did they remove the qt turk tremere?
>>713181012Sorry you're so autistic that Reality tells you you're a fag and to play in the Umbra to permit your gay ass fanfiction. That must kinda suck but its ok, you can totaly carve your totally not dogshit earth version 2012831098318 now and actually make the world to your vision. I'm sure it'll work this time, despite it basically never having worked ever.
>>713146623>SalubriYeah that can't be right. I'm not a bleeding heart I think
>>713181136As far as I remember heโs still around and kind of revered by mages for his disinformation campaign
>>713181260Third eyes get the rope
>>713181138Technically, she's still in the game... she just got a downgrade.
Would it kill the devs to come up with a vampire that's NOT a complete stereotype for a change?
>>713176635Thatโs kind of sick. Is this true?
The nephandi book is such a mixed bag because on one hand it seems to claim that anyone conservative is a gigaevil voidmage that literally wants to destroy the world but on the other it has a lot of worldbuilding around Nephandi and their progression that while it doesn't really fit with the MtAs setting is really cool. I'd really like it if we got more about the black diamond and less about how everyone the author doesn't like is a nephandi. At least it isn't deviant that tries to be woke and inclusive but at the same time makes the claim that anyone with trauma has to fall into obsession or bootlick their abuser and whoever just moves on is a hideous monster that should be killed.
>>713181489>would you play... mmoNo
>>713181537You have to remember a lot of these writers live in their own fantasy worlds. Modern mage tries very hard to justify the xher xhem style things too and I think the vast majority of people are slowly getting exhausted by this clearly inorganic thing.
>>713181373Don't look at me like that man, I chose all reclusive answers with a bunch of friendship related stuff and the only major red-flag was feeding with consent.
Favorite art from the core books?
Someone sell me on Mage.
That's the one splat that I always wanted to get into, but then I saw the sheer size of the M20 edition and decided "fuck this shit, it's not worth my life".
Seriously, this isn't a book, that's a murder weapon.
>>713181691Maybe you just really hate Satan
>>713181641Don't even get me started on that in the wider mage setting, especially when it comes to the cult of ecstacy. Yeah, the mages shooting up drugs 24/7 are all going to be accepting wholesome chunguses that would never ever commit a heckin SA. At least they left my Sons of Ether relatively alone.
>>713181854Itโs overly complicated and autistic. Are you sure you want to go down that rabbit hole?

>>713181854>Someone sell me on Mage.If you believe hard enough you can force everyone on earth into a reality where dragons are real. Simultaneously if someone else believes hard enough they'll force everyone into a cyberpunk dystopia.
>>713182032Thanks awesome
>>713180694No (and that's a good thing)
>>713181854Imagine 4 players can spec into shit so hard they gain GM powers. You can make someones hands into confetti cannons, you can make someone's head turn into a cinderblock, you can point a gizmo and shoot plasma, pray so hard you create miracles, inject drugs so potent you can commune with spirits, invoke arcane spells and sling lightning, etcetera. And your main problem is that Reality is a Cop and that you're breaking Agreed Law by doing obvious magic rather than shit that's clearly Logical For The Populace.
Faith healing works inside a mega church or convent filled with the Faithful, do it at a Hospital and Reality slaps your nuts. Computer hypertech lab can justify Precognition, or Temporal Manipulation, but it needs to be "reasonable". Gypsy land a crystal ball may actually tell your fate, or the cards, but try that in a physics class and you'll get blasted. Teleporter pad in Times Square and Reality is ready to gape you.
The "bad guys" is everyone deep down. The only people who remotely care about the average citizen are also the "badder guys" aka the people who invented cars and microwaves and phones and basic living quality with plumbing and stuff. They're also out there fighing cthulu and outer evils and keeping Earth safe but none of the Actual Wizards, Drug Wizards, Faith Wizards etcetera wants to admit it. You also have Evil Wizards, kill them.

How is it that every World of Darkness thread keeps going way past the bump limit, while every D&D/Forgotten Realms thread dies after a few posts?
And speaking of cool art, this one's my favourite.
>>713182442There is a lot yes. It's the collective bunch of about a fuckton of pages and lore and history and justifications and more to a setting and its relatively versatile. Just ignore the cult of ecstacy, I fucking hate them.
>>713181940I do fucking hate how they pretend an entire paradigm of drug use won't create sexual assault infinity, alongside the already existing identity sex cults which are pervasive right now with the COEs current belief in modern day. The same way that the Choiresters have some incredibly fucked up shit innawoods, people should very much in setting be glaring daggers at the COE until they prove they aren't the incredibly fucked up things that they very often are.
>>713182769Forgotten Realms is one of the most boring and blandest settings ever conceived, it has less personality than white bread and literally everyone who plays DnD just makes their own instead
On the contrary World of Darkness hinges exclusively on it's setting
>>713182610You're a furry.
>>713145631 (OP)Whats this? The newest horoscope for men?
>>713182769Anons like vampires but game devs can't deliver
Vampires are gay and stupid, you are all repressed fags
>>713182769Base WoD is very much with the title of "Your World of Darkness" which inspires your own take. A lot of the Forgotten Realms are explored by incredibly 3/10 modules which are a nightmare to run, are dogshit to play and have 0 fun due to low levels. Its horridly unbalanced, incredibly lacking in flavour and mostly done to kill your character rather than to develop a personality with your character. It's all stats and all rolls rather than flavour and fun first with rolls and mechanics second

>>713180281Thatโs one cool dude
>>713182265General problem with Mage, any Mage, is that someone uninformed trying to host the game will have players running circles around him. You NEED to know a lot about WoD at large for Mage. Fact that M20 is almost 700 page and still doesn't have everything you need will never stop being hilarious to me.
>>713180318Shitposting on SchreckChan.
>>713145952Ravnos - gay gypos with magic tricks who got holocausted because their guy woke up and they all went insane
Ventrue - gay rich pedos who control everything
Ministry - gay snake pedos from Egypt who worship Set
Nosferatu - Based
Gangrel - furries but pretty cool for the most part
Assamite - Mudslimes who drink vampire blood and are also assassins
Brujah - Anarchists with anger issues
Tremere - gay magicians who cheated their way into vampirism
Lasombra - like the Ventrue but with shadow powers
Toreador - literally gay
Malkavian - Insane vampires
Tzimisce - Shapeshifting Slavic vampires who are also stupidly evil for the sake of it. also the most traditional depiction of vampires in the setting.
>>713183656So not that different from a newbie ST trying to tardwrangle a clever Tremere player, I guess.
>>713184153>ST trying to tardwrangle a clever Tremere playerSurely you're noticing a pattern here.
>>713145734Just because these retards here stay connected all day doesn't mean they can actually do useful stuff, much less hacking. I'd say most are baboons gangrel just fucking shit up for the sake of being annoying cunts.
Me, personally, I'm a Ventrue, the most powerful, of course.
>>713146623I would gladly become uglier just to scare and fuck with people
>>713184335Yes, rules for magic in WoD are poorly defined.
>>713184439Coming a nossie is an upgrade by every possible metric to the average anon. Becoming a bit uglier doesn't matter, most of us aren't lookers anyway.
>>713146623>You are Malkavian!>Derided as Lunatics by other vampires, the Blood of the Malkavians lets them perceive and foretell truths hidden from others. Like the โwise madmenโ of poetry their fractured perspective stems from seeing too much of the world at once, from understanding too deeply, and feeling emotions that are just too strong to bear.Fuck me with a bloody spear, my lord.

>>713187489But necromancy is cool.

>>713190291It is very hot. Every single kind of incest kino can be done by tanned bitches in the family, and they're probably even done to raise the dead if you do one of its paths. All you need are a few tzimisce operations and you have some real debauched shit happening on the isles of sardinia.

Or maybe it wasn't, I am just nostalgic for Revised. So many fun memories.
>>713186841Third eyes get the rope
>>713191335honestly the same, I love pretty much everything about Tzimisce including their whole vibe.
That being said, maybe it's because they're Sabat and not the "standard" PC choice they're kind of pigeonholed into being the sadistically evil bastards which I always would like to ignore.
Also love that they use the word szlachta for their flesh monstrosities, as it's literally the word in-laws in slavic.
>>713146623Never played any of these games.
Is this a cool clan?
>>713191862>Also love that they use the word szlachta for their flesh monstrosities, as it's literally the word in-laws in slavic."Szlachta" literally means "nobility" in Polish... but the verb "szlachtowaฤ" means "to butcher" which is hilarious when you think about it, but very fitting.
Also, "Tzimisce" is just a made up word that doesn't mean anything, but is just supposed to sound slavic enough. But in Polish "Tzimisce" sounds very similar to "trzy misie" which translates to "three teddy bears". And this completely kills the horror of the clan. Polish VtM players had so much fun with that stupid name back in the day.
>>713192064You will be made fun of for being the fruity clan but also you've got a really sweet deal so part of it is envy.
Honestly it's the one I'd realistically like to be if I wasn't a dirty furhobo
i don't think any clan would take me but i certainly would pick Lasombra over any other, obtenebration if fucking sick
>>713192064https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyIW8CcfQrw
Depends. Do you like Anne Rice?
>>713192064It's the gayest clan by virtue of being artfags and spending a ton of energy deluding themselves about how human they still are.
In the game they are kinda neat because Celerity is OP as fuck and the other clan that has access to it is the short bus one.
>>713192214Well there goes my assumption, I went and checked a bunch of other languages and literally everyone else uses it as nobility or a variation of that. But it sound like you had a very lively WoD scene in Poland.
>>713192334Toreador have an OP combo of Celerity and Auspex, that at least in the game makes them godlike with firearms.
In tabletop... not so much.
>>713192064Oh man, Iโm so sorry to tell you this
Do you know what a scene kid is?
Well, thatโs you now
>>713145631 (OP)Salubri. Since the earliest days of my life all I wanted was to help out my fellow kindred and be a good sort. I paid dearly for it.
>>713145734Speak for yourself, I'm formerly handsome.
>>713192527>But it sound like you had a very lively WoD scene in Poland.It was probably the biggest tabletop game in Poland back in the day, second only to Warhammer Fantasy RPG. It helps that unlike TSR/WotC that completely ignored the Central/Eastern European market, WoD and Warhammer rulebooks were not only widely available, they were also cheap and most importantly translated into Polish. Also, Poles like vampires, what can I say. Some say vampires are Polish invention and not Romanian, but I have my doubts.
>>713192848How many of you third eyes are going to reveal yourselves? Whatever, just makes the blood hunt easier

This is your public reminder to inform you that Salubri do not in fact exist.
Keep that knowledge in mind in the event when you may come across one. Then report that incident to your nearest Chantry, where we will be happy to explain to you just how much they don't exist.

>>713195648Changeling the dreaming was my favorite old WoD splat ever. That and wraith the oblivion. Good times.
>>713196427Changeling is a surprisingly cute and comfy splat.
>>713145631 (OP)Malkav, and my playgroup knows it.
Last month, my best friend reminded me of the time where I had a "nega" version of her inside my head, of which only appeared after I started dabbling in weed. Schizophrenia, especially when the voice is doing stereotypical shit like screaming in your ear or groping you, isn't a fun time.
But such is the price for Malkavian swagger; becoming friends with girls is easier than making new bros, people have said that I'm an excellent listener and noticer, and I can make friends with just about anyone, even if they're my polar opposite. Especially if they're my polar opposite. Negatives tend to attract, at least from my experience.
Such is the life of a Malkavian. Autism, at a cost.
>>713196514The multimedia landscape of the 2030s and onwards is going to be horrifying.
>>713196427>>713196512Same. Nu changeling was too bleak for m6 tastes but was interesting. Old changeling was stupid fun
>>713196664Anon I do hope you know this but like, Weed absolutely is a massive trigger for schizophrenia even if you have it mostly latent, for gods sake do not fucking smoke it or advise anyone else who might be schizophrenic to smoke it, it massively increases the risk of it worsening or "activating" and is extremely dangerous.
>>713181049I'm for one look forward to returning to The Division-urban streets and back alleys cowered in blizzards, but this time as a supernatural predator.
>>713192064>>713192232Literally the best gun combat clan in the game.
>>713197352nta, but I really wish there was more awareness about that. I only learned of that link recently, and I'm actually quite horrified since weed culture was huge when I was a teen. Of course, the one who smoked the most went full schizophrenic and has psychotic episodes where he believes the universe is telling him to do stuff. he went to prison once because the universe wanted him to break into a random house. He tried to kill the occupant (a 50 year old lady) when she found him
Don't do weed, bro.
>>713197352Nta but fuck off. Weed is awesome
>>713196664You should probably quit smoking weed, anon.
>>713146623I have never played any of these games and got gangrel, is this good?
>>713198253I quit it because it was so awesome. It was much more awesome than anything else in my life, and that was decidedly not awesome to experience. It made my life fucking suck.
>>713197352Nta but you donโt know what you are talking about. Try some Swiss goat cheese or aatomic dog shit. You seem like a puritan ass

>>713145734>Compared to other vampires who are more reserved and isolationist, even to those of their own clan, due to the nature of being a vampire, the Nosferatu are actually pack-rat focused, forming entire enclaves and communities.>Best web and computer tech you can possibly imagine, with someone teaching you the ropes of hacking and traversing Shreknet.>Spend your days being invisible and survive a few centuries to have a mentor teaching you have to shapeshift your form to blend in society.>More in tune with animals and see you as a primal beast like one of them, to where you yourself can befriend them and make them do your bidding.>No judgement as everyone in your clan are all equally ugly and smelly.>I like the small confined spaces of the sewers and being away from the rest of the world in a secret world.Wouldn't have it any other way to be honest.

>>713198524>>713198403Wait wait really just because of the shapeshifting thing? Isnt shapeshifting way more than gay furry shit?

Actual werewolves hate vampires, and the places you will feel comfy are the ones with the highest chance of having werewolves.
>>713198753>the shapeshifting thingGangrel shapeshift into animal parts.
If you want to actually reshape yourself in a controlled manner, only Tzimisce can do that. It's slow, painful, and the result is entirely dependent on how good you are at Play-Doh.
>>713198887Whatever thats so fucking gay no wonder people make fun of them in thos thread, is there any clan or race that does what i wanted?
>>713198353Loners, survivors and characters on the fringe of society.
>>713198753>I selected invisibility, ability to control others and shapeshifting (dopleganger stuff)Unironically, the closest thing to a clan you want would be a Malkavian or R*vnos.

>>713199008>If you want to actually reshape yourself in a controlled manner, only Tzimisce can do thatNot really, there is also Obfuscate/Mask of Thousand Faces and Chimestry. Those are illusions, but that'll do.

>I was thinking of transforming into the person i killed so i could fool the other people around meThat's Mask of Thousand Faces, an Obfuscate skill that also doubles as invisibiilty skill.
>or transforming into other thingsThat's Dementation - you trick people into thinking you are a stop sign. It also can be used as mind control.
Granted, Malkavians have other problems than being furry, but hey, you do you.

>>713198415Fuck that man, start smoking again
>>713199126>Those are illusionsChimestry is, obfuscate isn't. Obfuscate is mental manipulation, it doesn't work on cameras, recordings and other electronic stuff.

>>713199589They are insane.
Insane enough that it can contaminate other people's mind.
Insane enough that it can warp reality itself a bit.
They all have a different type of insanity, ranging from shit that's semi-easy to keep hidden, to licking chainsaws.
They all have voices in their head (*on top* of their individual insanity) that come them being a semi-hivemind, allowing random Malk to know shit they shouldn't, or allowing them to act coordinated without ever meeting (or knowing why they are doing something).
>>713168346No more than they were with Rudi.
