Table top game using Bloodlines for setting

Once, because the player didn't want to keep playing anymore, for the larp setting you guys know now we did a nice scene for her character... This is what I propose as a compromise :

Take the smartest player (player !) apart and explain him he's been staked during the day (or at any time he was alone).
Describe a scene where this pc dies (killed by the prince, discourse about how he's not letting neonates run lol in the city). Of course very few vamps should be present (maybe only the primogen).

Except that scene never happened. The pc were dominated (level three, we need a subtle one, Strauss would be perfect) and that eventually they might notice their friend is still alive (being kept by Strauss for conditioning ? A test to see if they are good enough to help him get rid of lacroix ? Or maybe among the anarch there is someone capable..)
Twisted and gloomy.

Jeanette would be an interesting choice for someone to help them. An experienced Malkie should be able to pull off quite a few stunts. And of course, the Therese personality would try to undermine her efforts, because she wants to side with the prince.
Good laughs and quite some role playing opportunities guaranteed.

Btw, you sure that none of your players is looking into our forum? Then we'll have to think about a way to hide this topic from them.

They Yankees
Probably they wouldn't have thought of googling around for lol-topics by their DM.

When I say I want to kill one of the characters, I simply mean allowing a situation to get entirely out of hand, and let the chips fall where they may. I just wanna see if they'll actually start playing characters that would conceivably exist in the WoD.

In that case, go for it.

I think I've pretty much given up on any kind of serious tone for my game at this point. It has, mostly through my own fault, de-evolved into a hilarious WoD spoof of itself. Still having a blast though. The Torrie wound up getting knocked into torpor, so woke up in the morgue, where Vandal was about to "help" them recover, when the player decided to freak out and run for the door. Turns out Vandal has some pretty wicked stake-throwing skills, too.

Things like that happen. But the most important thing about roleplaying is that everybody has fun. So, its probably ok.

Best way to deal with kindred if you are a ghoul...

Vandal -- "Now I have a pet Kindred. I will dress it and pet it and keep it for my very own... emergency supply."

So game happened today.

Interesting.

I added a new player. A Gangrel, based on one of my old characters. Claudia has met her. She shall make for an interesting addition, methinks. They FINALLY met Therese and have made it to the Oceanside. Yay for Main Quest advancement!

Which reminds me, I've totally slacked on the whole Alice in Wonderland aspect. I need to get back to that, because I think my Malkavian player is starting to lose interest in the game...

They're just breezing through the MQ now.

Well, to be fair, the new player that I brought in hates one of the other players, who is in return extremely jealous of her. So they're not goofing around and having as much "fun" as they usually do... Yeah, that is one problem with VtM games that you just never seem to have with D&D: mo women, mo problems.

As if vampires and women both weren't insecure enough, get them together in one Malkavian body and look what happens.

Malkav, yet again, you and the game speak volumes of wisdom far above my paygrade.

So I guess my game is done. It was fun while it lasted.

So what happened ?

Sometimes people can suck all the fun out of a being a vampire. Sorry to hear that :-(

Let's hope you will get another troupe of players...

That's too bad, I know the feeling.

What happened? Long story short, I stopped smoking weed and everyone got bored. Fortunately, I have a LARP in the works...

Drinking is even more harmful than weed...
Don't worry Voraxith, you are surely funnier than me. My sense of humor is of the highest German quality. I took it after my Prussian ancestors. Weed doesn't help...

Is there any german sense of humor???
I have taken mostly to the cynical understatement that is so frequently applied as humor where they drive on the wrong side of the road...

Judging by my less polonized relatives, there is. Lack therof. But what would you require of descendants of grim Knights Teutonic
Honestly, I have got to like British humor myself. My attempts at imitating it universally result in poor impersonations of either Herr Flick of the Gestapo or Herr General von Klinkerhoffen...
Whtch Allo, Allo, if that is unclear.

Actually, wasn't it some popular german figure that changed the rules of driving throughout the Europe?

Nevertheless...

It's never too late to start again!

Hey Jad,
start what again? The weed or the LARP?

Feral, you know Flick is out of the picture by now. But the CSU, the bavarian part of our christian democratic party are real traditionalists. They still hold their (Reichs)Parteitag in Nuremberg.
