[Burn the Witch] [Burn the Witch] Deadly Dealings

A good rule of thump is: If a flaw does not actually inconvenience you, you shouldn't take it. If you think you've taken a flaw that doesn't incovenience you, you're making the ST inconvenience himself (herself) to inconvenience you, which will make everything worse. Take things that are fitting and relevant to your character.
 
Which all the ones I had /where/. However, from the way the ST is making it out, Touch of Frost will practicaly make keeping up the Masquerade impossible.
 
The problem I'm seeing (and again, I'm not saying that it's necessarily a bad thing), is that you're taking things and basically cloning your sire. Vampires can pick up skills from and obviously they're going to have some similarities due to how a lot of vampires pick Childer, but if your character wouldn't be An Evil Toady of Doom before they were embraced, they aren't going to become one just because their sire is an Evil Doomy Doom of Doom.
 
See, I thought those kind of things could be passed down the blood.


She wasn't actually evil, and isn't planned to be - but I would have thought a Curse of that sort placed on her sire, might effect any of her sires Progeny due to being, well, a Curse upon her and hers.


And she was meant to be being shaped and infulenced /by/ said sire, on purpose. It's just- well. Touch of Frost, should /not/ be a one point flaw, if it .literaly makes keeping the Masquerade up impossible.
 
It's rare without some very specific (and very non-Thaumaturgy) abilities, and really, only Assamite Sorcerers and Tzimisce really truly have the abilities necessary to force traits through their blood. A curse is a curse is a curse, unless the curse specifically says "All your Childer will blah blah blah" then a curse is really only going to affect said vampire, and that would be a very large flaw to take for it to effect more than one person.
 
*Shrug* Gah. Then I guess I have three less Characher Points to spend... fuck, I hate screwing around with Mechanics.
 
Soooo I've got a lot of ideas from other people, but am finding a distinct lack of characters. Is anyone else working on theirs?
 
I'll be honest guys, I was hoping for a full party, and now I see some of you who haven't even finished a character for me joining another V20 game, so I'm pretty sure this is dead :\ Which sucks, but I really have no desire to run a game with half a group and I guess you guys just aren't interested in it.
 
yeah, sorry about that. I'm just not sure what I want and where to go. A few more words about the kind of game you want to run would be helpful.
 
It's pretty much political intrigue and xanatos gambit, with some bits and pieces of mystery inc as pieces of the puzzle. If you wanna discuss it, I'll hit you up on skype when I get home from work.
 
I hope this game still happens, I like my Kiasyd concept in spite of the awful he'll likely experience due to Cam culture. :P
 
Geeze people.


First you hog Obfuscate, and now there's a Toreador that makes art that would be pretty tempting to vandalize, affecting the inter-party dynamics severely? My Ravnos is going back to the drawing board... :P
 
Mmm, I've pretty much settled on a core concept; Anarch fighter with a long history of fighting behind him. There are two ways of angling it, and I'm not sure which is better, so suggestions are welcome.


1) Bitter, slightly introspective Gangrel.

2) Aggressive, somewhat idealistic Brujah with just a hint of 'Murica!

Well, no Anarchs, but you could definitely have Anarch leanings. Nothing wrong with feeling opressed by the regime :D
 
I was admittedly tempted to do Man of Constant Sorrows for one concept aside form the Kiasyd.

No need to rehash concept-part of the fun of VtM are the interparty dynamics-And if you tinker trash decide to vandalize my work or any art work for that matter, well then, we Toreador can find ways to make things rather unpleasant for you at Elysium and elsewhere :tongue:
