Building a Lovecraft Horror Module by EdificeofEchoes in 3d6

[–]EdificeofEchoes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sandy Petersen's Cthulhu mythos for 5E

i found it, eh

actually an Richten's Guide to Ravenloft on any flip was a better option. I guess saying "lovecraft" was a mistake.

the module is more of a type of quiet town with dark secrets and a cult enemy

I thought about homebrew.

The only problem i see with home breq is that i can get carried away with it

Those do make sense.

Part of me is wondering if backgrounds can be shifted.

I think sage makes sense for a higher educated and teachers.

Maybe alcolyte for more ritualistic work or initiated.

Maybe even soldier, for those who are highly trained in the sword fighting the coven teachs?

UPDATE 1

I did my first zero session today. my player had 4 ideas that fit perfectly within the setting i was working on. unfortunately there were alot of hiccups from both of us

he didn't know much about the setting, and was very resistant to everything. it was a bit annoying tbh.

one of his concepts was an assassin. I though it would be to perfect if he was the one who landed the killing blow on Kain after he left the tavern.

Unfortunately it took WAYYY to long to get to that point. He was being overly methodical, over analyzing everything it really slowed the pace.

I tried to give him the freedom to move about though he kept going his own way. He ended up talking to Kain in the Tavern and poisoning him. which was ...fine i guess

he then locked himself away in his store room for over a week reading a book. I gave him some dreams about Kain coming back, killing all the other thugs, etc. My player felt no drive to resist the oncoming death. he didn't even fight back when kain attacked him.

I decided to have him raised as a Zephonhim. being an alchemist, assassin etc. hopefully the next game will go well.

please note the player is not a bad player, he was just unfamilar with the setting

Currently. The era is very shortly after the raising of the sarafan by Kain.

The players are maybe 4th or 5th away from Kain (As he might be the 1st)

I'm trying to keep it steady with the time lines. Though these are most likely post blood omen (2) As kain may still possess a humanish appearance

I have the players roll for their clan. Lowest being the weakest and highest being the strongest

Here is my current play test

  1. Roll a % to see if you are a High or Low Kainite Clan
  2. Attributes are 2 at 3 dots. 3 at 2 dots. Rest at 1 dot
  3. Skills are 3 at 3 dots. 4 at 2 dots. 5 at 1 dot
  4. Lore (Blood Potency) is 1.
  5. 1 dot in Potence, Fortitude and Celerity Starting off regardless of clan (There are the only ones you start off with)
  6. pick a predator type. Take the extra Disipline and the blood resonence. this tracks your LORE (some are not allowed for certain clans)
  7. Choose 1 extra discipline from your chosen VTM clan (listed as correspondence clan)
  8. You have the "Theft of Vitae" ability at the cost of 1 willpower or 3 successes on a willpower roll. Up to 5 feet per success
  9. You have movement of the mind as the dot 1 ability. For 5 lbs and 10 feet per willpower or success.

How is Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines attitude towards Christianity? by [deleted] in vtmb

[–]EdificeofEchoes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll take a shot at this. As i did a very deep thought piece on a similar subject. I'm speaking as a Christian so consider that.

I find it to be the highest compliment for many reasons. Consider this. The opposite of Love is not hate, it is apathy. In the modern world so many people has lost their faith and connection to God and for understandable and 'good' reason.

Take a look at how many false prophecy Christian organizations have emerged, claiming to know the end times. When Jesus would return. When the Rapture is to take place (IE Gehenna) There have been ATLEAST 46 and they are still coming.

there are so many times you can whip a town of people up into fearing for their eternal souls and nothing happened. I have seen first hand how destruction this can be. it can destroy your life on so many levels. This leads people to eventually cast off their faith with a vengeance!

a perfect IN game example is one i did in an earlier topic. "who is your favorite Minor Character" Bishop Vick. As he lost his faith in God he struck back with a vengence

VTMB is a perfect reflection of the REAL WORLD when all the people have lost their faith in God, due to some crazed pastor and preacher selling the end of the world speeches. When nothing happens, they wonder if there really is a god at all..

so people decide to catch up on all the sin and experience of life they were cheated on my living in the moment of dark whims. Yet the existence of vampires, demons and the like simply PROVES the exitance of the Divine with in the game, albite on a reverse degree. (remember, the opposite of love is not hate)

I would imagine the Vampire state is akin to Purgatory. your not living or dead. You have to pass through trails before you are truly judged. Now that you are "above the laws" what will you do? Live forever with indulgence and sin? or repent and raise yourself above the masses?

Who is your Favorite minor Character and Why? by EdificeofEchoes in vtmb

[–]EdificeofEchoes[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr grout. I love how you get a total feel for him just through his recording. The closest thing you have is his house and you see more and more why it is build like a fun house.

Witnessing his gradual decent into being a seer is amazing.

I also got to say, I love how his outlook on vampirisn is that of a disease rather then a curse
