Vampire: The Requiem | Forum profile

I've just been reading Requiem for Rome, and I was wondering whether someone more versed in Christian &/or Classical history than me could answer something for me. (Wood, I know this is right up your academic alley!) The book appropriately shines attention on the conflict between Nicenes and Arians (and Pagans of course). I'm wondering though, what is the status of the Gnostics at this ...

For those that don't know it: think Bob marley. Lots of dreadlocks, reggae and ganja smoking... These guys just scream VAMPIRE to me. Why? Well, one of their ultimate goals is literal, eternal, physical life. Bob Marley, for instance, refused to write a will, because then he'd be accepting his death forfeiting eternal life. The first thing that crossed my mind when thinking of ...

Greetings, peeps. It's that time again! Like we did with Lords Over the Damned and Kiss of the Succubus, here you'll find a place to spoil the newest clanbook, Gangrel: Savage and Macabre . We went claws-out with this puppy. Russell and I conjoined our unholy verbage under the aegis of the inimitable Joe Carriker. All of this was put into something far more beautiful than human eyes can ...

I've been away from WW products for awhile due to work and school and I am looking for some of the best books that deal with politics in WW games. If I am not mistaken, Vampire is the most political of all of WW game lines (Exalted included) so I am starting here. Any thoughts on which book would be good to pick up? What about the new clan books? I have the Core book and Chicago....

Ok it came up due to one of the PCs is a clean freak and he was justifing taking showers all the time and it poped into a 40 min convo with the players and me trying to decide if it was nessary for a vamp to take a shower. I mean they would sweat and cry blood, but would a simple wipe down stop the smell so that other vamps would not smell it on you. I am not sure how keen it is for them to pick...

Just what does the Chosen mean when it says the Duchange get a penalty on an action "they've done before"? Does this mean such a character would get a penalty on attack rolls on subsequent rounds when fighting an opponent for more than a round? _________________ PC1: ...and that's why I believe we should invest in this young man's career.

Someone gotta have it by now, or know something? _________________ I swear I'm only here for the comedy value these days. -Wyrdly Do you just keep a constant stream of junk running through your head, then occasionally drop the needle and type whatever gets picked up? -hls

My friend who often storytells was looking through one of the bloodlines supplement and he said he was strangely fascinated with the Daeva Gullikan bloodline. Anyway most of you know it's the bloodline where they are masters of intoxicating scents. Now he wants to add one to his story and was asking for ideas. I came up with one but not sure if this is in the scope of their powers. The kindred ...

I'm going to be running a weekly game starting in a few weeks in which one of my players has a pretty concrete idea for his character, anyway he called me the other night and was talking to me about his idea for a discipline and If I'd help him write it up. Basically he wants to be able to control swarms of insects similar to animilism, but that would be rather difficult to look every single one ...

I need to ask some questions about a few things that I have limited knowledge about. We have a new campaign running in Chicago. I need to get some feedback into how vampires and Ghouls can fake their identities. For example, do you have photo IDs on the driver’s license and do you use that to ID yourself in general? What do you need to actually fake an ID in the US, what ...

I often wonder would it be like to meet others like myself. It gets old being a vampire and not communing with others.

The Covenant and Clan/Bloodline symbols: what do Kindred use them for, if anything? ...is it a conceit thing? _________________ PC1: ...and that's why I believe we should invest in this young man's career. PC2: Oh yeah, because when I hear "Invictus," I think gangsta rap.

Now if you're a vampire with 5 resources.... 1. Why would you need haven location when you got the dough to buy yourself any modest location near a feeding ground you want to use. 2. Why would you need haven size when you could buy some thick black drapes and/or board up the windows with a few rolls of a Craft skill (Assuming I have dots in crafts). Why would I need to buy Haven ...

This is the premise of a chronicle I'm planning on running this fall with my troupe of 4 players. I'd like some critique and suggestions about executing this concept in game please. Right now I'm running a game where the Government has had an Ancillae in custody for the past 5-10 years, and has been doing experiments on him to learn exactly what vampires are and how their powers work....

I haven't had much exposure to OWoD Vampires, but I know enough to know that this would be a great idea. I leave it up to the experts, though, to build the actual details of the clan/bloodlines. _________________ Wipe the Golden Tear, from your Mother Dear And raise what's Left of the Flag for Me.

from what i have heard and read, the Embrace is simply the vampire sucking all of the blood out of the soon to be childer and right before he/she dies, they give them a sample of their own blood. now is this correct or not because im hearing from other sources that there are other ways of being Embraced. and if former is the way of being Embraced, then why is it that a Kindred can pretty ...

Hello, I´ve heard, that humanity rules have changed, now you´ll have to roll for even kill in self defense, if this is real, how, can this affect my ventrue character?
