Here's my song then

You can't kill the Mages
The Mages will live on
Vampires tried to kill the Mages
But they failed, as they were smite to the ground
Werewolves tried to kill the Mages
But they failed, as they were striken down to the ground
Wraiths tried to kill the Mage hahaha
They failed, as they were thrown to the ground

No-one can destroy the Mages
The Mages will strike you down with a vicious blow
We are the vanquished foes of the Mages
We tried to win for why we do not know

Changelings tried to destroy the Mages, but the Mages had its way
Prometheans then tried to dethrone the Mages, but Mages were in the way
Hunters tried to destroy the Mages, but Mages were much too strong
Geists tried to defile the metal, but geists were proven wrong

Demons tried to be ahead of Mages but no one is ahead of a Mage
Mummies tried to cheat the Mages but the Mages were much to wise
Beasts tried to be friends with the Mages but the Mages spit on their faces
Yea!

Mages!
They comes from the Supernal!
>>
Is "Doubting souls" any good?

One of the writers on that one has been set to handle Hunter 2e, and since Hunter is my favourite game line (Changeling is the only other one that really gets close in terms of consistent quality IMO) I'd like to know if I should be worried on that front.

The outline looks... dumb as fuck, and it seems they just want to cram as much stuff in as possible. But that may just be pessimism speaking.

>>51880009
They used to be great places to discuss the games until this "LOL MAGES ARE SO KEWL YOU GUYS" stopped being a weekly occurrence and became an hourly thing.
It still can be, when the people who are doing the memeing are asleep.

I finally finished We eat Blood. If you want to read a strange story in an amusing shape on your phone I guess it's alright, 6/10.
I you want a WoD novel, it's utter shit. There's little wod elements, and it shits on them by having you suffer through the ramblings of the vegan black trans thinblood writing how the Elders have it all wrong, and generation doesn't matter.

They should have called it We're freaks and all our friends are unemployed.

Wew lad

Gotta hit that diversity quota.

By the way, I got the impression that there seemed to be a shitton of Masquerade violations in the story, so how come no one was taking care of that?

>>51880722

Hang on, this is happening in LA? This is actually a sequel (of sorts) to Bloodlines?
>>
>>51880740
I think it does, but I may be conflating it with Beckett's diary that's supposed to be released soon. The bottom line is that there's little to no Camarilla in the city and the anarchs start acting like a bunch of Malkavian antitribu.
>>
>>51880646
Vegan black trans thinblood, Anon.

Yeah, in the story it's almost like the Tremere are the rulers, and there's this bunch of thinbloods that think they're hot shiy. No Camarilla, no Sabbath.
>>
>>51880897
And no one has explained how vegan vampires work.
>>
>>51880897

>vegan

What?

She eats celery, not blood?
>>
>>51880646
Because LA.

It's stated that it's too big, too unruly and you have a thin blood who creates more thin bloods. Thus, the Tremere stepped in to inflict order upon the place. It's an ultra street level story. For all of it's other faults, I'll excuse that one.
>>
>>51880976

Yeah, but why aren't the Elders and the like stepping in to cull the herd? No one really wants thinbloods in their city.

She writes that since her embrace, she feeds on vegan peoples. And she was vegan when alive.
No, it doesn't make sense.

>>51881424

The only thing any of you get serious about is arguing about Mage mechanics. People have tried discussing Werewolf (both versions) and its 1-2 people shitposting at them. Vampire discussion automatically gets shitposted by people who think Mage trolling is the height of comedy. Everyone else either isn't interesting enough as a side splat to drum up more discourse, or they're waiting for a 2e version to drop.

You can really tell that some of these are new posters who may or may not have spilled over into here from Reddit and OPP Forums, or /v/ when the WtA game announcement went live. I would be surprised if it wasn't one of these three sources.

Must be a crazy Tzimisce-descended Thinblood. Would fit with the tranny body mod theme.
>>
>>51881571
Thin bloods are a metaphor for millennials
>>
>>51881583

Yeah, but unlike killing millennials en masse, killing thinbloods won't get you in trouble.
>>
>>51881571

I assume population growth and good old lack of manpower.

Say you have one Sheriff (and this isn't LA that seems to be lacking a power structure) and has two or three lackies. You can maybe kill two-three thinbloods every other evening, providing you can find them.

Some thinbloods are basically making shovelhead thinbloods. In We Eat Blood alone, the main character and his friend are sired the same night, along with who knows how many others. Said friends turns two others because she pities them. It's looking like the start of an epidemic.
>>
>>51881610

And all the Elders seem to be 'busy' right now with an event no doubt soon to be covered elsewhere. Theya re getting 'Beckoned' East somewhere, and leaving fuckwits in charge.
>>
>>51881610
>mfw the new WoD Vampire plot is Elders enlisting a shit-ton of Hunters to deal with all these retards running around threatening to collapse literally everything.
I've not played the game, are there any thin-bloods smart enough to realise that running about doing obvious vampire shit is going to get them torched real quick when the humans get their shit together?
>>
>>51881610

LA was an Anarch hellhole, so that probably explains all the thin-bloods if the Camarilla and Sabbat fucked off.
>>
>>51881621

That's such a gay handwaving excuse to get them out of the picture.

it's not fair.
>>
>>51881621

inb4 it's Caine or one of the Antediluvians calling them and just wiping the slate clean so that people new to WoD can jump into the roles that the Elders filled before, despite being high generation and thinblooded

Cappadocius pulled this shit with his own people in Kaymakli.
>>
>>51881628
>are there any thin-bloods smart enough to realise that running about doing obvious vampire shit is going to get them torched real quick

Short answer? No. Not one.

>LA was an Anarch hellhole, so that probably explains all the thin-bloods if the Camarilla and Sabbat fucked off.

Well, Bloodlines was what, a decade ago? Given the Tremere still have a presence, the only thing we can be sure of is pussy Prince go boom. Lacroix was mentioned, and VV is apparently still around, but on my particular run none of the Anarchs were mentioned.

>>51881636

That, or there is something bigger going on, and this was a fringe story. Really, the events in LA take place over a few nights, so it could just be handwaved that retribution just hadn't fallen yet.
>>
>>51881583
Shouldn't gen Z be thinbloods? Millenials are more like full-strength Caitiff 13s and 14s. The iGeneration is the Thinblood, since they're the last before Gehenna

>>51881610
Hopefully a nice Lasombra qt will seize power and exterminate the riff-raff.
>>
>>51881640

It really does reek of this, unless it's explained well later. It wouldn't have been so bad if the thinbloods weren't basically every strawman left-wing millennial in one. I could perhaps have gotten behind the idea of playing a persecuted thinblood, trying to survive in a hostile society. Instead we got a mayhem playground of thinbloods, and all the Elders are on holiday.

If I understood correctly, even the main antagonist is a fledgling who was buried for a century so his power could grow. Who was then left in charge. Is that about right? because it didn't seem to make much sense.

>>51881653

Man, I fucking hope not.

>>51881680

Man, I hope so. As long as Damsel... and I guess Nines, make it out safe.

>>51881671

Maybe? Fuck if I know.
>>
>>51881671

Yeah, but the writers are millennial, and not Gen Z. The biggest issue is that it's generally snowflakes that are drawn to WoD. It's something I've had to deal with.

I think I'm the only none-Goth/subculture, not-left-wing, pro-Trump/Brexit ect of all the WoD tabletop gamers i know. I was drawn to the franchise by the Judeo-Christian background, interest in horror movies, and an interest in vampires.

Nah, you're far from the only one being interested in VtM/VtR because you like vampires, and not politics shit.

It's just that the internet can be a giant echo chamber, with confirmation biases everywhere.

Of course they don't anon, that would require personal sacrifice and possibly risking life and limb for the equality they desire. The current brand are from the decaying white American and European middle class who were left to their own devices on the internet at a young age.

It didn't start clicking with me until I had to actually work a lot of shitty blue collar jobs while putting myself through college, just how important those issues are. As someone who *wants* to be a leftist faggot, I can't find a lot of reason to sympathize with the younger millennial minorities in their echo chamber, nor the older Boomer and GenX ones currently engaged in our politics.

I won't be surprised if I turn into some kind of post-neocon libertarian in the next decade or two, say I d on't trying to live out in a cabin in the woods away from all the lunatics.

Old WoD had something for everyone. Beckett is fucking awesome, no matter who you are. Tghere are clans for every occasion. Goth, Punk, rocker or Classical scene, they had you senpai. A game line for every supernatural interest.

I still have hope. It's thin and brittle, but it's there. We Eat Shit was terrible, but Mage wasn't bad at all, I really enjoyed it despite how short it was.

>>51881851

I have a lot of liberal opinions, I just also recognize the value of society and the rule of law, and respect our centuries-to-millennia (depending where you are) of culture and history. I also see a world where people are genuinely arguing and demonstrating over 'gay right' and social issues, when homelessness and unemployment are still immense issues that barely any one of these fuckwits seems to give a damn about. Fuck, i wish i had the angry dome gif handy.
>>
>>51881899

This. So much fucking this.

You could perhaps argue it was intentional satire, but if so, it went full fucking circle back to just being irritating. The same way someone using 'triggered' ironically or as a joke still evokes that feeling of irritation.
>>
>>51881933

I hate using this word, but its a very entitled attitude. I can see wanting to not be treated like a monster, but at the same time I don't see them fighting for anything else. Meanwhile their livelihood is being bled out and given over to foreigners who have no intent of living here and bolstering our economy or culture, much less an equal value of cultural exchange.
>>
>>51881899

WHAT system?

WHAT SYSTEM do they rail against in the game? The Elders that propped it up aren't even there! At best you have, what, a few neonates being dickheads?

If you follow DtF's lore from that era Adam and Eve were basically braindead retarded caveman stereotypes. This was actually a thing the Fallen and Lucifer were mortified by after all the cosmos-bending work they went through to make Eden and the world a paradise for God's new children.

And they turn out to be thoughtless morons.

So can you really blame Lilith, who showed no signs of Adam and Eve's labotomized retardation, to look upon Adam and go 'uh, no thanks'?
>>
>>51881899
Gramps, please. You're upsetting Mom. Why do you think she stopped visiting?
>>
>>51881989

>So can you really blame Lilith, who showed no signs of Adam and Eve's labotomized retardation, to look upon Adam and go 'uh, no thanks'?

IMO, this just goes to show what a huge dick God is. He makes a braindead moron as the first Man, then makes Lilith, who's actually sentient and thinking and probably wouldn't even be a bad partner if you treated her like an equal, so she really has no other option but to fuck off?
>>
>>51882001

Yep. And when she has good reason to show disgust he punishes her for not being a good little simpleton.

But hey Old Testament god is full of tempestuous wrath and expected exultation. You didn't worship him because he was a nice guy who had your back, you worshiped him because he was Bigger and Badder than every other god and you should rightfully be afraid of what happens if you do not obey him.
>>
>>51882014

God in oWoD just seems to be a dick overall.

Even to the Kuei Jin, in his role as the August Personage of Jade. Didn't some of the Yama Kings see him smile mysteriously after things went to shit?

Is there a single splat where he's not a dick?
>>
>>51882026

No, but its better to have him on your side than not.

Unless you are an Archmage.

>>51881965
Gerontocracy. In the same way that millennial activists claim to be against "patriarchy" and "white supremacy" they can't actually point to a tangible enemy. They are against the very concept existing.

Whether or not thinbloods were used as a millennial metaphor in this particular piece of subpar fiction doesn't prove that's the whole of what they are in the greater WoD.

The wording put forth in the Bible is pretty specific anyway, that God made mankind in his Image, in what could be pretty easily seen as a huge ego-stroke like building an expensive foyer simply to hang up your own velvet portrait.

Going by the core bool thst is the case, but the antagonist section of non-solar exalted opponents was a joke, my players buttraped every challenge if i went by RAW using the book enemies.

I had to make Solar NPCs of greater XP value to actually challenge my PCs.

Angeleno here! Allow me to provide context.

In WoD lore, anyone who tries to take control of LA fails. It's overpopulated already and part of the anarch free state. And by that, I mean that it's split between different crews of Anarch who only unite long enough to push out anyone who tries to assume control, Prince LaCroix notwithstanding. Keep in mind that that was written when LA was Chicago by the sea.

Umm... you misunderstand Death magic. It isn't anti-Life, it's the cessation of existence and endings. Death Magic don't make you die via aging or cancer - that's Time and Life magic. It rots your flesh and makes it wither. And Imperial Death Magic can erase you as a concept or destroy your soul outright (except Archmages, but you can damage their Paths via it).

Honestly I feel like it would be a necessary change, but there would be a big tonal shift for vampires if they did that, as well as other changes to their fluff. Travel wouldn't be an issue, they could keep up the Masquerade better, they could maintain non-vampire relationships more easily, etc. For me, the whole sunlight thing was one of the things that really made them feel damned.
>>
So, here's a question for y'all. Ahrimanes (Gangrel Bloodline) have sterile blood as a clan flaw; they can't make vampires the traditional way, and their vitae can't make ghouls, but there's no clear ruling on if their blood can sustain a pre-existing ghoul.

My inclination is to say "If they can't make them, then they can't sustain them", that their blood lacks the 'oomph' to maintain the ghouldom; it's basically empty calories, tastes good (relatively speaking), but doesn't even count towards a ghoul's blood pool.

Can I get a second opinion on this?
>>
>>51887305
Well, my group is more "I wonder what the parents from Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School were doing in the meantime? Probably action movie shit" than "Woe upon us, the damned and forgotten! We shall never again taste the kiss of heaven's sweet fiery lips upon our perfect backsides!"
>>
>>51887324
I'd agree. No ghouls.
>>
>>51885338
Death is a fucking great Arcanum. For a Mage, losing souls can be a huge problem as they eventually lose their magic if they don't get another one, and guess which Arcanum they would need for that? Death.

Not only that, but Death magic doesn't work like you think it does. It doesn't have anything to do with aging, it straight out rots and degrades shit, pure and simple. It can be fixed with Life magic, sure, but so can damage from all the other Arcana so it's really no different.

Plus ghosts, Twilight, cold, endings, and darkness are all very useful things to have command over.

Is it because mages aren't actual monsters in the traditional sense?

They aren't a traditional monster, they're more powerful, and they're dicks.
Source : I'm a MtAsc fan.
>>
>>51887524
I love Mages, but they're a very human monster, they're massive fucking busybodies, they have an annoying habit of trying to fold other splats into their understanding of cosmology, and very minor uses of their abilities can render other splat's issues mostly irrelevant.

For example, Prime can disrupt diquiet, Time can wind the clock back until when someone wasn't a Vampire, and Spirit/Life could probably do something about a Werewolf's instincts.

People see it like playing the game on easy mode.
While I like using it to explore shit no other splat could get into.
>>
>>51887524
I imagine the other splats probably hate Mages for a bunch of reasons, and at the risk of sounding a little arrogant I would say jealousy is one, but not the biggest.

Mages in both lines are essentially human, meaning that they have human flaws, but amped up hard since they have tons of power to throw around. Imagine the worst know-it-all you've ever met, then the most neurotic, and finally add severe tunnel vision when it comes to obsessions. Throw in a dash of real danger and you have other splats' general picture of Mages.
>>
>>51887524
My main complaint with Mage isn't the system itself, but the players. From personal experience, those who play mage don't just play arrogant douche-waffles; they act like ones as well. It's like everything is an out-of-character dick measuring contest.

I'm sure there's non-asshole Mage players around, I just haven't met them.

Mage as a game is a REALLY fucking weird departure from WoD as a whole to be one of it's three main games. It's notorious for attracting minmaxing faggots who crybully their GM into letting them do what they want (whether or not the reputation is deserved is a matter left to personal experience), and like >>51887637 said, the Metaplot doesn't revolve around them, but they desperately want it to.

Magefags, meanwhile, are a bunch of metagaming cockgarblers who play WoD to "win," the same way your Chaotic Evil teamkilling Half Orc with no backstory beyond "He's a tough guy" plays DnD to "win."

Crossovers in WoD require a lot of care to avoid overpowering one splat's story, and Magefags want nothing more than to do exactly that. On the flip side, puritans who say "one splat for one Chronicle" hate them still because, if they aren't playing Mage, then nothing Mages do should matter.

People who can play Mage without throwing a fucking Pride Parade over it are alright, though.

Anon, you don't even need to be an Archmage to become an immortal Lich.

Can an indefinite Unmaking Death spell on yourself, you'll return from beyond the grave every ritual interval so long as the spell's still active, and so long as you've cast Soul Jar to staple your soul to your corpse, or your dedicated tool or something.

And then you hunt down and bind all of your Ghosts formed from all of the times you've died to your will, forming an unholy alliance with yourself.

I had an NPC do that in my last game.
Before they could destroy her Soul-Wand though, the Mysterium snatched it up and locked it up in one of their deepest vaults.
So it's technically feasible that if someone stole the wand, and resurrected her, she could return in her full glory and power.
And continue her perverted work.

I really should adapt this some day to another setting.

When two supernatural powers want to do different things, and you have to determine which beats the other.

The roll is usually Power Stat + Arcanum/Gift/Discipline + Duration Modifier

So Mages with their indefinite powers can be pretty good at them, and ephemeral entities are surprisingly garbage.

A Rank 3 Spirit can at best roll 9 dice at a Clash of Wills, and that's using a Willpower, along with an Influence of 3 dots.

The Mysterium already knew her soul was inside her wand.
They took the wand to save her soul from loss, not for her benefit you understand, but because her Legacy was self-made and she never taught anyone it.

You can't decay constantly rejuvenating cells because of the Life magic doing the exact opposite at a faster speed. You can't age the cells because they have removed the aging process.

Attacking the cell shouldn't be the go to route for lesser magics.
>>
>>51889580
Hey, I'm just reiterating what was said in an interview. I, for one, would love to see more neonate/ancilla focus with elders being the big boogeymen of the setting again.
>>
>>51889645
>You can't decay constantly rejuvenating cells because of the Life magic doing the exact opposite at a faster speed
Okay, but where is this stated in the rules? It also sounds like a higher potency Death spell could overcome this by just "decaying the cells faster than they can be restored" or whatever. Again, it would result in a Clash of Wills at most.

>You can't age the cells because they have removed the aging process.
Life magic doesn't offer true, permanent immortality. It helps to retain youth and extend lifespans but it doesn't wholly "remove the aging process". Their is a spell for that, but it requires Death and Life and only lasts for a week. A Life spell to retain a youthful appearance could again be overcome by a higher potency Time spell.
>>
>>51889855
>There is a spell for that
Yeah, Practice of Excision, 8 dots.
Lasting effect.

>>51889532
>Massive Forces 9 ritual
>Throw in Charm mechanics
>Pack of delicious super-bubble gum is made
>Chew said super-bubble gum
>Blow big bubble
>Pop bubble
>Universe explodes

Charms are pre-rolled once they have been made, and created in batches. Similar to Time 4 hung spells but far better. Essentially this would turn the Mage into a D&D Wizard, only far more dangerous and versatile.

It would be more efficient to create an Artifact instead, as it only requires a single success (in this case to blow up the universe) to use them, and doesn't get consumed in the process. The Paradox would be enormous, but Mages are constantly suicidal with total disregard for consequences.

No ST is going to be gullible enough to allow this, but it's entirely RAW.

The Practice of Excisions (and Entities) is 7 dots.

Dominions is 8 dots, while le grand Transfiguration is 9.
>>
>>51889955
My bad.
Also Transfiguration is utterly retarded and only useful for game-ending rituals.
>>
>Beast Magic lets a Changing Breed learn up to 3 dots in any magic from Awakening

What could I take to really cheese it?
>>
>>51889973

I believe you can only cherry pick a specific spell, rather than the Arcanum in question. Take something from Fate.
>>
>>51889989

Ah you are right. It gimps their harmony and gift selection but I imagine a 3 dot spell is better than most of what they could get.
>>
>>51889973
Take matter 1 Alter Conductivity.

>>51871932
It's ended up being neck and neck for Mage and Hunter. Really on opposite ends of the spectrum! Didn't expect Hunter to be so popular, but it would definitely make for a cool living city. Anyway, I can't start divvying up the city til I know the factions, and hunter has more of them.

Since the sensible preference is for just 1 gameline, hopefully, we can break the tie.

Mage or Hunter?

They can learn spells from any Arcana, up to 3 dots, at 5/15/30 xp. Can only have one spell active at a time and you cannot combine any effects.

How lame would it be to take Forces on a weretiger so I can throw hadokens?

>>51890018

What does that one do again? I haven't read Awakening that much.
>>
>>51890233
>How lame would it be to take Forces on a weretiger so I can throw hadokens?
They'd only do bashing damage with the Changing Breed powers, but if you do go that route take Prime 3's Celestial Fireball, it can hit twilight creatures IIRC.


Alter Conductivity allows you to make anything a perfect electrical conductor. For some reason in 1e in was shoved in as a 1 dot spell. It makes it almost trivial to run large amounts of electricity into pretty much anyone.
>>
>>51889133

You monster. I like it.

We aren't talking about Imperial practices. If we can't argue them in favor of Death then they can't be argued in favor of Life.

What sphere would a Mage have to be, and I know better than to ask if it's possible, to remove a vampires weakness to the sun or shield him from it?

My next game involves a Brujah biker (...) and a newbie Mage investigating a hobo-shovelhead army slaughtering an entire neighborhood on Christmas eve. If we get as far as spring and summer, sun will make acting in the day difficult.
>>
>>51890458
Probably Entropy and Prime or something.
>>
>>51890458
Remove their weakness to the sun? That sounds like an Archsphere of Prime and Death.

Create a bubble which transforms sunlight into some other kind of light avoiding their weakness? Comparatively simple Forces effect. Sadly that doesn't keep them awake during the day.
>>
>>51890551
>Death
I mean Entropy.
>>
>>51890315

In 2e the Celestial Fire spell is 4 dots, idk if 1e was different.
>>
>A vampires internal organs are dead and doesn't work
>but your eyes brain and heart nose still work?

I never played vampire or any of the WoD stuff but does this just boil down to "its supernatural"
>>
>>51890684
In 1e it was a Fraying spell, but in 2e that spot has been taken by Aetheric Winds.
>>
>>51890808
>does this just boil down to "its supernatural"
Essentially, yeah.

>>51890859

It made sense in the context of the game. They were the most oppositional Anarch holdouts in the city. Isaac had disappeared, Jeanette doesn't care about the Movement as a whole, Therese is the Malkavian Primogen (yes, I know, Alt ID is a thing...), and the Tremere Prince of Los Angeles was charged by an Archon to deal with the Thin Bloods. So he chose to deal with the Anarchs at the same time. The PCs were loosely responsible for it (they retrieved a bunch of the materials to make the bomb, and the materials to make the 'meth lab explosion' cover story work).
>>
>>51890842

I may just take Spirit spells. Amusingly I think it might make the character better at spirit stuff than Uratha.
>>
>>51890926
Does it really matter? Would an explanation as to why a curse laid down by God decided to let some organs work and make others shrivel up and die provide you with more satisfaction?

Just think of it as the curse taking everything it can from the vampire while still letting it carry out an existence.
>>
>>51891048
Spirit is a pretty powerful Arcanum, and if you make it your main one you actually will end up better at spirit stuff than werewolves.

Plus Fetishes are fucking cool.

This is why werewolves try to woo over a young impressionable Thyrsus who is pure of heart, only to find out that the predator has fallen for their 'prey'. Hopelessly in love, the lupine can only pray to Mother Luna that they are worthy of their blushing mage spouse.

You are a moving corpse, frozen in a stasis and it's impossible for you to change, you are powered only by your willpower and your heart (even do it's not beating). You can reactivate all your organs (or to be more precise, systems) by using the power of your blood, and you have to spend 1 point every night to raise, let's say that the point you spend is used to make the brain, eyes and smell work.

>>51893537
Not in the books, as far as I'm aware(didn't look at 1e)
You could probably justify the existence of a "Gift of Fear" and have the Purity facet be something like a presence+intimidation+purity roll(minus highest Resolve among targets, maybe?) to apply Cowed, Paranoid, Shaken, or Spooked, that's a reflex to activate(and costs an Essence, obviously).
Dunno what the other facets would be though.
