dose it have effect outside of persuasion dialog choices?

I'm not hateful Wink but I am responding at the same level of your question ^^

How about you check out the description of the mod (some "search" function with google too, like, using keywords...) and/or try it out so you see the differences ? How about you look out for things instead of hoping someone will hand it out to you on a silver plate, all hot and ready ?

What can I say...

In my ever lasting quest for praise, glory and out-witting Claudia, I looked up the description in-game for your convenience! What a Face

Rhetoric
Your character's ability to debate. Rhetoric will increase your persuasion feat.

You didn't eat her Blood Cookies yet, hence you're not under her spell yet and thus she doesn't appear as loving and charming as she does to those enslaved.

I have never eaten any blood cookies. [Good God, do you people want to be blood bound?]

Yet I find Claudia's brutal honesty refreshing. Her attitude of "Find out for yourself before you come bug us for help" is almost Brujah in outlook. Very Happy

I don't mind helping people, but "open your game, put your mouse on the trait and read each word so to understand the sentence" is.. well.. useless :/

Every single post of Malkav explaining the new CE says he "changed scholarship to Rethorics"

https://camarillaedition.darkbb.com/t1375-learning


How hard is it to google, seriously ? I know the search function of bbforums are sucky, but come on :/


I tend to be brutally honest way too much though, it always brings trouble (I mean, just check PV, or WW's forums XD), but thanks for your approval PGM Smile

Well, I am quite submissive by nature... I like to be praised, although I am no stranger to discipline either. Not to mention belly rubs...

Hm, maybe. Sadly there are still enough people in Germany who think that the so called "Nibelungentreue" is a virtue.

If I remember correctly, wasn't that some play about a Valkyrie that feel in love with some mortal? I think the name of the Valkyrie was "Brunhilde" or something of that nature....

You're in the right saga, but the content you mention isn't quite what happened. And the part that refers to "Nibelungentreue" is much later:
Kriemhilde, sister to the king of Burgunnd is married to Attila the Hun and has a child with him. When the king and his entourage visit her, Hagen, one of the king's henchmen kills the child. And instead of delivering Hagen to trial for breaking the laws of hospitality (and child murder, but that's not so important), the Burgudarians choose to fight, and all of them get killed. Just because the king values the feudalistic oath higher than a capital crime.

You think "devotion to the death" is just restrictet to Germans?
Besides it's a matter of interpretation if Nibelungentreue is something good or not.

Yes and no. It's the same play Ring der Niebelungen but different act. It's about a bitch was dumb enough to let her husband get killed (she was even stupid enough to sew a target on his back and then get revenge by getting everone (innocent or not) killed.

Hm, you gave me food for thought. Not too tasty at it.
Let's hope I have a doggish Nature and loyalty is simply part of it... as well as an instinct to follow orders.

S*it, maybe those who say nations have, well, how to put in English... Spirit?, are right to a degree. So you could inherit it with traits of your countryman. Bad...

I have to side with Claudia on this one. Rhetoric is Scholarship without Research. It improves your Persuasion and that's it. If it did anything else, it would've been mentioned somewhere.
