Didn't want to relegate this to "well, it happened" since it's actually a huge character moment and will serve as the basis for Saladin and Kiril's relationship. Also, we've got a little time, so might as well have it happen.

How long do the stains of dialblerie last?

No official ruling in it so I'll say a year per dot in the generation background+1 (so a seventh gen would leave a stain lasting 6 years),  a fourth generation diablerie would last a century, an ante would last 5 thousand years, Caine would last forever.

Not that those last two will be particularly relevant.

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on May 30, 2016, 12:49:08 pm
Yep, Al-Ashrad, the Amr - otherwise known as the most powerful (conscious, awake, and with an allegiance to Haqim) of the Assamite sorcerers.

The assamite have a much closer-knit society than most of the other clans, so it isn't as unlikely that an ex-archmage turned epic blood mage would be mentor to a newbie like Saladin, especially if it was as a favour to a renown and much-loved warrior like Husayn.
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2

Post by: Drakilian on May 30, 2016, 01:03:03 pm
Saladin currently has no way of contacting Al-Ashraad.

But the resident insane blood-fountain fortune teller will inform Ashraad of an emergency, and Ashraad himself will give Saladin a way to contact him in the future, when he briefly teleports into Sofia and gives Saladin his mission.

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on May 30, 2016, 01:09:09 pm
Yep, the Weeping Master. Though he soon leaves the clan with his childe to be one of the masterminds behind the Black Hand, his childe becoming First Seraph.

Yes he does... ^^ Both Touch the earth and Pebble of the mountain works for these purposes. He can even get to Alamut if he wants to with the Apsu portal Ritual. Provided he has time to build an apsu tank ^^

Post by: Drakilian on May 30, 2016, 03:19:39 pm
Touch of the earth only works on Kindred whose generation is weaker than yours. I assure you that Al-Ashrad, childe of Ur-Shulgi, Childe of Haqim, Childe of Zillah, Childe of Caine, is not of a lesser generation than you ;)

However, Pebble from the Mountain would work well enough, you can assume that you have one from Ashraad then.

Their targets are Boukephos, Yorak or the Dracon (not sure yet), Enkidu (this guy: http://whitewolf.wikia.com/wiki/Enkidu) and the Black Mother (http://whitewolf.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Mother). It's going to be great. I'm betting they all die before they reach Enkidu (the first one on the list, in the undiscovered continent of America).
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Not Aman on June 02, 2016, 03:13:28 pm
Noooo not boukephos
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on June 02, 2016, 03:31:16 pm
Boukephos is the last of the four, and I'm pretty sure that if they won't make it past Enkidu, since they'll probably just try to brute force him (and get violently Farked).

Enkidu has subjected a tribe of werewolves as slaves and caretakers, only way to defeat him is to aid a rebellion within the werewolf tribes.

Only way to defeat Yorak is (spoilers).

Then there's the Black Mother, with Chimmerstry 9. In case you forgot, Chimmerstry is frickin' insane. I'm not even sure how they'll beat her yet.

Boukephos can only be weakened enough for them to fight him if he's exposed to the sun in his dark god ensemble (Extreme weakness to sunlight) (which will be difficult, since he can blot out the sun at will).
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on June 02, 2016, 04:54:47 pm
Highlights of this session will be:

"Enkidu breathes fire at you. You take 30 dice of aggravated damage"

"Roll Wits and Empathy against Boukephos' intimidation attempt. Subtract 6 dice from your pool. Also, someone pass me 18 dice?"

"Alright, so far Yorak has sustained 15 aggravated damage. He is now "Hurt" "

"You have just stabbed your ally. Again. Another illusion."

It's all good though. House rules, take a shot every time your character dies and he's resurrected at full health 8)

Anyone reread lucien's original character creation thread. The level of foreshadowing was crazy:
Quote
Demon-Hounded   ( Vampire: The Dark Ages -- Page 281 )
A demon has taken a special interest in your soul. She appears to you occasionally, using threats, bribes, and honeyed words to win you to her cause. Sometimes she just asks you to perform innocuous favors for her. Sometimes she asks you to sell your soul. Sometimes she offers favors or information without any apparent catch. In any case, it is not your interests she serves, but those of her diabolical masters. All of her plots are ultimately designed to ensnare you and win your soul. A minor demon (1-point Flaw) may be an annoying imp, incapable of no more than distracting you, thieving small items, and pleading for your soul; its plans are unimpressive, but can be frustrating. A greater creature (4 points) is your physical equal and can concoct horribly devious plans to win your soul. In either case the Storyteller creates the character for the demon, and keeps track of its plots.

Like wow

Man, that is a real downer. Especially if it was going so well. When that happens to me I usually feel compelled to try to recreate what I had exactly, which becomes an huge headache and 500 times harder than it was to create the original...  :P

Alright, Cdrive, i've been trying for days but I have no idea how to do John's Prologue. I have no idea how this character acts or behaves and I have no NPCs attached to him which I can use to move the character forward. Do you mind if he doesn't get one?

So, I guess, come up with a reason why he's known about it for years and never did anything? XD

Also, Kiril doubleplusgood at the idea of Saladin being part of his retinue.

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on June 15, 2016, 02:06:07 pm
Anton wouldn't have done anything because Saladin is Husayn's childe. I suspect Anton has too much respect for Husayn to try and kill his childe, yes?
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Not Aman on June 15, 2016, 02:08:09 pm
Not sure if Anton would trust Saladin at all. Like, maybe he's Fariq with Obfuscate biding his time? Like, Anton was never told Husayn had a childer, he gets stabbed, then suddenly a childer appears outta nowhere? Anton doesnt have Husayn saying it's fine.

I guess we could retcon Anton into sending Kiril a letter waning him and Kiril reassuring Anton that Saladin isn't after vengeace?

Having John the butcher arrive as a mystery to all is pretty good for an intro at this stage as it will force the rest of us to interact with him and build his Charicter in the current setting.

Post by: Drakilian on June 22, 2016, 02:15:55 pm
Basically, the various representatives get up, talk while being cheered on by their own delegation and some other representatives, they try to garner support, and then they give slight variations of the same speech indefinitely until they get more support than the other side. Yes, Cainites can declare their support of one side or another during speeches and can argue with the delegates in front of the court, this is what gives the proceedings some spice and you are all allowed (and expected) to do so.

I know what you're thinking, and yes, this is an incredibly inefficient system - which is the point, and a major theme in this chapter is the snail pace of Cainite political decisions.

Cd, youre literally the servant of your sire. You don't get to say that, at least openly. Saying "I think this is stupid but my sire is pro" will lead to you getting stripped of princedom and possibly brutally eaten by the coiterie of dialblerists ha ha.

Only people who technically can go against their patron's wishes are Kiril and Anton since Basilio freed them. Everyone else, even if twy get convinced to another opinion, can't change.

Most wouldn't, and it's customary not to use any disciplines of any kind in elysiums (areas of sanctuary between all vampires in a city, like the blood court). Violating Elysium by using a discipline or engaging in a fight in that area is grounds for a Blood Hunt.

The Lasombra. Narses is a Lasomebw, after all.

Narses hates Constantinople and is only in an uneasy alliance with them right now because he can't face down the Byzantine empire by himself, and cannot challenge Michael. Malachite currently runs the empire and is Michael's favoured agent. He is notoriously distrustful of Nosferatu.

Waiting on replies from Kieil and Heldric to Roland, from John to (Saladin?).

I'm also going to get the joy of having a brief fight scene between Anton and Maximus, and feel great sorrow at the fact that Steeple never let Maximus keep the sword he came to gift Steeple with (though if he did have the sword he'd probably kill Anton, and then he'd kill the Nosferatu for being too ugly, so it's probably for the best).

You had a shroud up, you either dissipated it or absorbed it into your clothing when Anton finished the convo with Steeple, I was specifically waiting for that moment before beginning the combat. You never stated that you summoned another shroud or put the one you had back up.

Maximus didn't slaughter the 13th warrior and sentinel breeds by being stupid, no siree (Okay, Eternal Thirst helped). Brute force is not his way. He'll kill Anton later, with a cleverly laid trap. Must protect the master, after all, and for now it seems he's wormed his way into the Dark One's side.

Assuming you choose to go without a fight, you will each be taken to various luxurious prison cells where you will be made to wait for a few hours. No contact with anyone will be possible save for the ones in your heads - Heldric can pass off a command to Sicilan or Octavius before he's imprisonned but once he's been put in place Vendramino will place wards on Heldric's cell, having noticed his ghostly companions.

Yup, that's why I specifically did. Heldric hates politics. And being there surrounded by so many people. He is also grumpy by nature and made worse right now. He also isn't the highest int score so instead of rationalizing it all he is just trumping back at everyone while making a few good points.

Lol I was actually going too once there was a rebuttal. I was basically assuming someone would say "The assassin was seen in the area!" To which Heldric could point out if an assassin didn't want to be seen they wouldn't,  then make a few people vanish and reappear the next alter so.eones appearance to show off just how foolish trusting that obvious set-up was.

Playing a grumpier and slightly less intelligent Charicter is very fun. Super nice to those he regards as allies due to his path, but I. Situations like this he gets to loos it and just go off at people, calling much more powerful vampires idiots and actually using an ability on Narces himself.

Interesting... No way Anton wins this (maybe if he gave over control to Gabor he'd stand a chance, but Husayn has too many tricks up his sleeve - and teleportation if things get bad), but Gabor might just recognize who they're fighting if it plays out well enough.

I mean, you could, but Maximus (along with one other NPC servant - Carinus) has Iron Will (Carinus also has maxed willpower and has Judge's Wisdom on top of his Iron will, a combination that is not legally allowed in the base game but i've waived that). For Carinus it's because he was based off Hannibal, whose will and psyche were indomitable, and for Maximus it's because he was the only gargoyle with the will necessary to rebel against the Tremere in the thirteenth brood, and was chosen by Etrius as a gift for Steeple specifically because of his unique mental capacities.

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on January 15, 2017, 02:12:56 pm
Shhh what I want has nothing to do with it, Prince Maurice is insulted by Barabus' actions, Seth leaving means Husayn takes over means Kiril's servants are given their freedom, and Maximus' overprotectiveness means he wants to smash Barabus' head in, it's not my fault everything is building up for an impending confrontation.

Though I don't think Barabus is going to make it to Steeple, considering he'd have to kill Elias and Hashim, along with (at least) torpor-ing Maximus and Minimus in order to get to Steeple. Maybe if he was still possessed, but definitely not as-is.

Though, there is potential for this since I want to kill off John, John is one of Vladi's servants, and you also want Steeple to kill John, as Barabus+John would be significantly more of a threat than just Barabus himself.

Just to clarify, Steeple plans to go with Heldric first thing to the warehouse to try Illuminate Trail of Prey with each name.

Should he see Barabus, he'll use his Scibe ritual to set up a duel challenge.

If he's still alive by the end of the adventure, he intends to take out John, before leaving town.

I'm pretty sure that all of Steeple's conversations with Prince Maurice are completely out loud, and i've just been assuming that the rest of the characters just choose to ignore when Steeple starts talking to thin air (I mean, they all hear dead people's voices telling them to do things too at this point anyway...)

Ah, I thought you guys wanted to interrogate Rodrigue and co. first since he was the most solid lead.

Although I can just reveal right now that Rodrigue's name would have lead you to this inn (and then Steeple would notice a fresh track leading out to Gauthier's sermon). Gauthier's wouldn't have been present. Neither would have either of Rodrigue's companions.

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on February 21, 2017, 01:25:25 am
If the body is too damaged (a la burned to death) then you can't revive it. Because aggravated damage causes irreparable damage, it would mean any damage you cause now is there to stay. Forever. If a fatal wound is dealt in this manner, it would mean that fatal wound also stays there, forever.

Killing someone with your fangs as a vampire involves literally tearing them to pieces, so yeah, I could definitely see that being the way it works.

You can stop the bleeding but the legs will never grow back.

Also, suggesting "Cut off more legs" as a solution to the problem of "We cut off their legs, whoops" is one of the more hilarious suggestions i've ever read.

So... these city ghouls keeping an eye out... any recommendations for getting rid of them or bribing them to 'forget' what they see?
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on March 23, 2017, 02:22:09 pm
If you kill them you better have someone else to be placed as a suspect, and hope to hell and high water that when Guilelmo questions you about the situation that he fails his Auspex rolls - which notably happened with my other group, they pissed off the nossies and had to kill their follower ghouls to get back on their good sides, then Guilelmo failed a difficulty 7 roll with 8 dice. He only needed 1 success.

It's a lot easier for you to temporarily "lose" them (they're only human and as far as you've seen, not particularly impressive - Heldric can most notably hide from them at will). They are not immune to Dominate but unless your memory control roll is strong enough to be permanent you won't be able to accomplish much there as the memories would eventually return.

Gauthier is a solid scapegoat for most crimes you might want to commit as the local vamps don't really want to Fark with him (most notable is the fact that he's going around the city killing vampires, citizens and ghouls with holy abandon and yet is still alive).

I'm waiting on posting Saladin's arrival because I want Heldric to get a response first, otherwise it would be Saladin arriving mere seconds after Heldric, which would seem a bit iffy.

Should be near maxed already with Strength of Earth, but OK, I'll edit to change Dex to Str.

What? Not following what you are pointing to...

Steeple gets Gen max, then +3 from Strength of Earth I believe.
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: BerkaZerka on April 02, 2017, 09:22:23 pm
What would you place Steeple's stats at, given Strength of Earth (all Strength) and X Rounds bumping Dex/Str?

Steeple knows Brujah have potence, so unless his Strentgth is 9 or 10, he's not going to bother grappling with him...

I'm Pulling my post until I know what I have to work with...
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on April 02, 2017, 09:48:39 pm
Did you say you were bumping Steeple's strength to max? I don't find anything saying you blood-boosted strength, only that you blood-boosted dexterity (both in the venetian nights thread and in the "Son why do you hurt me so" thread). Right now Steeple's effective strength is 5 because of Strength of the Earth, if he'd boosted his strength to his generational maximum he could have added 5 to that, reaching 10 strength. As is, right now Steeple has a ton of dexterity that would not help him at all in a grapple.

Your advantage, however, is that your sword will drain just about all of John's blood so he won't be able to blood boost, and he's taken aggravated damage he can't heal that will lower his dice pool.
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: BerkaZerka on April 02, 2017, 10:24:45 pm
Ah, a re-read shows that I omitted a blood Strength Bump after all.

In that case, Steeple will have to use the sword another round with a strength bump.  I'll edit my post back in to show this intent.

Well, you can try and find out!

(Any intent to hurt or even remain in the general vicinity of someone with True Faith requires a successful, very difficult willpower roll if I recall correctly, though I'd have to make sure whether or not that applies solely to their area of influence.)

However, the throwing rules in this system make it very very difficult for even someone with Andreas' prodigious strength to throw that far, ESPECIALLY with something that heavy.

Yes.

Lucita De Aragorn is the Lasombra, Assassinated guy was Roland Du Rocher, another important character was Aimery De Versey (aide to the general).

The Lasombra Delegate was Tommaso Brexianno

Ventrue General and head of the delegation was Lanzo Von Saschen.

Prince of Venice is Narses. His childe, representative and Seneschal is Lord Guillelmo Alliprando. (Note: Alliprando is a pretty cool guy from your interactions with him).

The necromancer who's been helping you guys out is Vendramino.

Husayn has taken over Kiril's body.

Is there anyone else?

Anton hates Narses right

Yes, due to the fact that he is a heretic (people who believe Caine's curse is a blessing and vampires are the ultimate evolution of humanity). Oh, also, Anna Sgorina is a prominent member of the Byzantine delegation.

It is awesome!

So, that list of names... Yeah, I have long forgotten who Steeple can plausibly blame his murder on.

Does Guathier have a symbol or the like Steeple can Scribe-spell onto John's chest or something?

It was Gauthier, always Gauthier.

Symbol? Just the templar cross really.

Though John is currently a pile of ashes so scribing anything onto his chest is not really an option (Diablerie always turns the vampire to ashes, or at least, that's how i've always played it).

The plan had been to lure Gauthier to the warehouse I think. Any confrontation with him there would be plausible excuse for John's death.

For additional plot reasons I hope that you will forgive what i'm about to make Steeple and Saladin do because it's way cooler/hopefully in character

"It'll be easy" I thought. "Just a single chapter" I thought. "I won't have to make 9 separate threads for one single chapter will I?" I thought. I did. I did have to make 9 separate threads.

I might have to make a 10th too if you bastards split up for the epilogue with Barabus.

Uh, it's not very good. I'd say worse than bloodlines IMO, I got it, played it and finished it by the next day after it had come out, it's what I would describe as mediocre at pretty much everything.

I still played it to the max because it had vampires in it and I wanted a vampire game but like all vampire games it's kinda meh. Still waiting on a good vampire game to come out. It has to happen at some point right?

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on June 08, 2018, 08:24:07 pm
Sort of, from what I can tell the two final bosses actually scale with your level - with the pre-final being significantly weaker than you and the true final being 1-4 levels above you

Also I was a hella good doctor man until the end of chapter 6 and then I ate everyone with every clue unlocked (it took like 40 minutes of sitting through the kiling animations) and became a god.

Having 120 k+ exp to spend feels really really good by the way.

Thelma best character <3

But for real what killed it for me was the voice acting was legitimately awful, the combat was meh but I was expecting it to be. There were like, 3 good voice actors in that, and they all had so few lines. Elizabeth and the MC were terrible.

“This game will be going on hiatus for a few months”

*Three years later*

“Hey let’s start this back up”

I guess this is BZ’s way of subtly telling me it’s never too late to continue a game

Seriously though, I know that is a hundred times harder to start something back up compared to starting something new. It takes a huge effort just to try to go back through to see all the players and threads and can be too daunting. It took me a while to jump back into Disciples after that last break and I'm just now starting to feel like I know where I'm going with it again.

So, we super-love this setting of yours and especially our characters.

But maybe it's just too deep at this point to slog through the last bit of the current adventure.

That said, perhaps writing this one off and fast forwarding the game into the modern world might be an answer.

Kiril and Barabus could have escaped and we wonder where they are to this day. Both make excellent Antagonists, because everyone wants to kill them haha!

We caught the guy and proved our innocence and thus started the crusades and the formation of the Camarilla and Sabbat, etc.

We could have an XP party, build out our characters to god level aberrations, decide where they ended up - and retire them as Elders and Princes to play new Vamps - or keep up the super OP power-gaming in the new setting lol!

Anyway, whatever you do or don't do - this was the best fun I ever had playing Vampire the Masquerade by far!

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on September 22, 2018, 10:40:11 am
The main problem i'm having is just Seth's disappearance. Kiril is an extremely intensive character to play and RP correctly given that he's also Husayn, has one of the most important/complex mortal characters (Barabus) as a servant, and is prince of one of the most important cities in the setting. His character also has a critical role to play with the Assamite faction.

And him leaving the game actually Farked me super hard because I also have to RP Kiril as well as everything else now, and if I don't then all the characters i've built and associated with him, especially Barabus, will fade into the background/out of the game altogether.

It's just so much to keep track of at this point, and i'm sure you guys noticed but it was getting to the point that each update was taking me 1-2+ hours, and that was AFTER I just started fudging rolls to make things cooler/less stressful to keep track of (which i'm also sure you all noticed)
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: BerkaZerka on September 22, 2018, 10:47:42 am
So what is the logical outcome of Kiril/Husayn prospering to the modern world? Can Kiril eventually become Husayn completely?

What does the demon in Barabus ultimately want? Would Kiril/Husayn eventually stop him if unchecked?

But yeah, the cast of participants in this was certainly on an epic scale.
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on September 22, 2018, 10:55:17 am
Honestly, I'd have to look through the setting notes again to really get all the details, but given Seth leaving I would just have his consciousness be subsumed entirely by Husayn after Husayn sees how weak and twisted Kiril was becoming. Something along the lines of "You aren't worthy of being Basilio's son"

Barabus stuff is too spoilery for me to reveal

Honestly I wouldn't even be all too opposed to continuing, I just wasn't sure if you guys would even want to given it's been a couple years since my last update and I would have to basically fudge the end of this chapter, basically retcon Kiril's participation by having Husayn take over and leave, and bring us up to the next one.

I actually like the idea of having us just decide what happened in the next 50-100years, and then starting new Childer with the backstory set up. I feel like that's a lot easier for you drak and also a lot of fun where we're playing VtM but BHB-VtM, with our crazy characters being tied to the metaplot.

Both work for me.

Post by: Drakilian on December 06, 2018, 03:47:59 pm
So, I just finished re reading chapter 2 and the 8 chapter 2 associated threads. Got a pretty good idea of where we were. I might start to update this today, when I get home in about an hour, or more likely later tonight, after we talk a bit about the game.

So right now, reference desk is down. Rp portal was also taken down. There are a number of sites outside of those two but none of them are nearly as good as either of them were.

I have most of the books in either physical or pdf format but the problem is that looking powers up from individual books is a massive pain in the ass, as there are many variations of each ability, and there are many different options for discipline powers at 6 and up.

From now on I think any level ups will, until I can find another quality discipline list, will have to be you guys going out and searching for vampire powers, or asking me if something might be possible.

Also, I can just barely handle how long it takes to update character sheets and roll out large encounters. I’m considering just more or less deciding the majority of fights by averages or by ear, or by rule of cool - keeping in mind that I have been doing this for quite a bit of what has already been done and written, the exception being any conflict that might erupt between player characters and perhaps some special fights (for example if you guys fight an oncredibly important preplanned character like Gauthier). I trust each of you quite a bit of players and don’t believe that you would screw things up, and I trust that you guys also trust me to write as fun of a story as I can while operating under those rules. Re-reading the massive, almost novel length adventure that we’ve written together makes me certain that we can continue doing so under that format, if you guys are willing to do so.

Also - one of these days, we all need to get together face-to-face somewhere for a weekend of real gaming. One of the coolest things I ever did was host 'Cabin Con' for my old gaming group. We spent the weekend in a super remote cabin (fireplace and everything) and played a crap-ton od both board games and RPGs.

I'm good.

Incidentally, I'm currently reading the new Vampire The Masquerade V5 edition. I love that they brought back all the original backstory (Requiem was so farking lame haha!).

They use a mechanic called Take Half, where rather than rolling for the unimportant stuff or against mooks, you can just count your pool and assume you rolled half that many successes.

Post by: Drakilian on December 06, 2018, 08:01:22 pm
What do you think you'd run?

I'd be down for some DnD if that's what you've got the material for, i've never actually played a DnD game but i've always been a big fan of it (and as you can see in the other thread I posted I Farking love kingmaker).

Or would you be willing to put yourself through the horror of a Final War Sequel where I demolish Aman and only Aman because no one else would play? XD

Also i'm actually really happy where I left off. If i'd stopped at a point where all of you were still in your 9 separate threads I would have probably just given up, but after reading through everything you guys are all together right now for the first time in the last couple hundred posts of vampire

I got a mechanic I used for Mass D&D battles, that could add a depth of chance while still keeping things quick and easy.

Use the Take Half option, but add a single d6.

If it's 2-5 no effect

A 6 means Extra Successes; while a 1 is Reduced Successes or botch when dramatically expedient.

This way, there is a small chance of success when opposed by a superior dice pool.

Forge is a Medical Professional, so we can totally trust him, even if he brings his bag of scalpels, bone saws, and other medical implements with him to cabin con.

That jus leaves Killa, who is obviously the serial killer among us, because he has been to the Philippines and has the word "Killa" in his username in a reverse phycology way of trying to throw off suspicion.

Yup, totally trust the guy with access to a ridiculous amount of lethal drugs and equipment every day :)

As for what I would run... I'd start with a short DnD 5e mini-adventure. I own most of the materials up to date in hard copy but I also own everything on fantasy grounds which is an online tabletop game which, If I get you all on free accounts, you could all access so you could make any build on it for the game. Or just find the info online.

then you could just use the materials and I could run it on here like normal.

Would you run a module or something custom?
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Forge on December 07, 2018, 07:04:21 pm
Custom. For the current games I run I do 1 module and 1 homebrew adventure set in the Sword Coast world setting and both I and the players think the homebrew is more fun since I can weave in backstory arcs to the main plot etc.

Ours would be more stand alone, I'd prob plan for a Shortish adventure first then continue it if people enjoyed it enough and there was enough interest in doing so.

On a related note... I passed my further qualifications stuff with flying colors so that's 1 less stress gone
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on December 07, 2018, 07:30:05 pm
Congrats that's awesome! What are you qualified for now?

Running custom stuff blows my mind. There's so much work that has to go into it. I don't know that I would have ever run vampire if I didn't have the transylvania by night modules to give me a setting and background.

Though I guess I ended up editing the plot in a bunch of places anyway (God the ending for the OG chronicles sucks ass).

Further CT stuff just but it's good on my resume and opens new job possibilities.

I found I just love doing the world building. I started with the basic forgotten realms stuff... then massively changed most of it including but not limited to: Hostory and it's mayor events, some cities and most towns and villages, famous people. Some minor things on how magic works. gods and religion in general as well as specifics about why and how they can interact with mortals. Lichdom I changed loads esp process etc. Several other realms, esp. the fae realm and the abyss.

I know you have the level 2 one that lets you summon living shadow (Heart-That-Beats-In-Silence), you don't have anything else do you?

Both Anton and Saladin have the most fascinating reasoning here. There are an unknown number of enemies with bows and poisonous arrows, so let's fly upwards into the the killzone they've set up where they'll have an unimpeded view of us.

I would also mention you're ignoring heldric but, to be fair, Forge said he cloaked himself before opening the door so you actually would have no idea that he's there

Hmmmm

How bad would it be if Anton broke into a house? Could he do it right now?
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on December 18, 2018, 08:36:33 pm
Anton could break into pretty much anything pretty easily with the tendrils he's got on him right now.

As for bad, it wouldn't be great but depending on how this all ends up going down a lot could be forgiven.

Some wooden stands, tarp covers that serve as shelter from the rain, might even be a cart or something you can duck under. As this is Venice there are also canals that you could conceivably dive into and hide underwater in, which would be pretty easy actually, since you don't need to breathe, and water would make any projectile fire useless even if they were still able to see you somehow.

So Steeple’s mercury one isn’t nearly enough for him to reach the assassin from in the sky (path 1 is only like, 5 or 10 meters), but I can write it to work pretty easily anyway so i’ll accept that

This isn’t possible under the normal system (and to be honest neither is deflecting knives like you did with Anton) but it should be and we’re already favouring rule of cool so i’ll allow it. It would only lower the number of dice hitting you by 5 though (your telekinesis dots), you’d still be getting hit with arrows, just arrows at -5 damage.

I like what you did with it though - thanks!

Next time, I'll have Steeple drop out of the sky and teleport just before hitting the ground, sideways, into an opponent. How would that work out?  ;D
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on December 19, 2018, 04:53:54 pm
You would both take the same amount of damage, but that isn't necessarily a bad plan if your durability is significantly higher than your opponent's, or if you have marble skin from Protean 6

Can Steeple use Aura perception to 'see' through the shadows?
Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on December 19, 2018, 05:28:42 pm
Aura perception would let him know instantly if something is a shadow (or if it has an obfuscate rating higher than your Auspex), but it wouldn't let you avoid the dice roll penalty that nightshades give you.

Now, I don't know that Steeple would have the knowledge necessary to make any of these decisions but these are the following ways you could get rid of a nightshade summoned by a Lasombra (That I can think of with Steeple's toolset):

The nightshades, much like the shrouds and the tendrils, can only be summoned within eyesight. Out of eyesight the Lasombra can still command them to do a specific action, but will be unable to guarantee that they do exactly what they are supposed to. That is to say, if someone is running away and they leave your sight, but you have a shroud floating after them, you can make the shroud move forward, but you can't guarantee that the shroud will move at the same pace as the person, that it won't pass over them and continue moving forward, or that if the person turns around a corner the shroud won't turn the corner itself. The nightshades are sticking to your flesh right now but if you were to teleport again, unless the person commanding the nightshades has vision of you, the nightshade wouldn't be able to stay on your person, as they would no longer be attached, and would just swirl in place.

It's the same with the tendrils. Even if the Lasombra isn't within eyesight, he can still order the tendrils to attack and restrain whatever they are attached to.

Alternatively, all Lasombra shadows are extremely vulnerable to sunlight and fire. Steeple could set himself on fire (not recommended), or summon a fire elemental to cover his body in flames without burning him, both of these run the risks of rotshreck but would destroy the nightshade.

Steeple could also walk out into the sunlight (not recommended).

Lady Z & I are too old to be killers (unless we are the highly successful type who have never been caught  ;)) and anyone can see our real selves on EliteTSD.Com.

You have met Drak face-to-face and lived to tell the tale, so at least we know he won't chop up his gaming buddies and stick them in the freezer.

Forge is a Medical Professional, so we can totally trust him, even if he brings his bag of scalpels, bone saws, and other medical implements with him to cabin con.

That jus leaves Killa, who is obviously the serial killer among us, because he has been to the Philippines and has the word "Killa" in his username in a reverse phycology way of trying to throw off suspicion.

 ;D

Wow, harsh. I'll have you know my body cellar has been clean for weeks now, and what happens in the Philippines doesn't count!

I'm banking on Drak, playing the long con by allowing Aman to live and lull the rest of us into a false sense of security. >:D

But yeah, I actually wouldn't be against something like that. I've done a few in person dnd sessions with buddies of mine and the they were a blast. I imagine it's even more fun with people that have attention spans longer than an hour and actually know what they're doing lol.

Title: Re: Transylvanian Chronicles OOC 2
Post by: Drakilian on May 14, 2019, 06:44:46 pm
"A Curse Upon Thy House
This affects not only a person upon whom it was cast, but his entire progeny and brood also. The caster rolls Manipulation + Intimidation (difficulty 8). One success is needed, but for every success thereafter, one other vampire is affected (beginning with the closest to the target). Each Willpower point spent likewise affects another vampire. They will all have the Dark Fate Flaw until the head of the house (the target) atones for the crime done to the curser. If the curser was an anarch, and the target was the prince, then the prince must somehow pay reparation to the anarch's memory. A "good deed" must be done to overcome the curse, or else all the brood are affected. If the target dies, then the next one who was affected by the curse takes on the responsibility of reparation."
