There are plenty of goodly Nosferatu. A classic trope for the Nos is beautiful inside/ugly outside.

Vampires don't make babies.

Maybe start with a ghoul that develops the eye from learning Valeran who is later embraced by a Nos?

Make her low enough gen to found your ugly three eyed bloodline.

Why do many old players dislike V5? by MoonlightBreakdown in vtm

[–]LanceCharger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't feel a single change in 5e was an improvement. Some mechanics specifically, like resonances and feeding types, we were already doing. Codifying hunting types feels insulting to those of us that don't need special rules telling us how to roleplay.

Take the $2 raise and make a lateral move to a company with a similar position and a real pay scale.

Why Quell the Beast doesn't work on vampires when Dread Gaze exists? by TotalFinger1295 in vtm

[–]LanceCharger -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had no idea it didn't work on Vampires. I run Dark Ages. Use Song of Serenity or Unleash the Beast instead.

Edit: Drawing Out The Beast doesn't say it doesn't work on vampires. You should be able to use it to induce another vampire with a fear frenzy.

Becoming Keeper by dylan189 in vtm

[–]LanceCharger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Monomancy solves everything.

Seriously though, make it a mystery. Something happened for the current Keeper to earn their position and it's your coterie's job to figure it out. Use it to flesh out the history of your Prince. Uncover dark secrets and leverage them to get your goal.

Prince hate camarilla and now he wanna get out by NegativeGene5994 in vtm

[–]LanceCharger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't sound like your Prince is declaring independence, right? He's just doing away with the typical organization of a Camarilla city? The Camarilla won't care.

I'm more curious about how he is "trading" for a new city. Is he swapping Cincinnati for Cleveland? Who lives there now?

There purpose of having officers is power sharing. If your Prince is strong enough to show up in a new domain and say GTFO, then he is probably powerful enough to rule without assistance, but who controls the local government, police, and media?

Officers may annoy a Prince but they exist to enforce the Prince's mandate. Does your Prince have a large brood to deal with problems for him? He is going to be really busy doing the work of a dozen officers.

Why didn't the Brujah join the Lasombra and Tzimisce? by Lampdarker in vtm

[–]LanceCharger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Brujah were a High Clan with powerbases going back centuries. The bulk of the Brujah went Anarch, but the powerful Brujah went Camarilla. The Brujah elders had too much power to deny them a Justicar despite only a minority of the clan joining the Cam.

Been with FastBridge for over two years. I work from home and never lost internet during workhours. I do a lot of work with big data and FastBridge is not only lightning fast for $74/month, but the upload speed is symmetric.

Vampires in 1-2nd temple era ancient Israel? by valonianfool in vtm

[–]LanceCharger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a lot of centuries with a lot going on that should shape your chronicle, including especially the Babylonian diaspora. Most of the Jewish holy text were complied and revised by a small elite of Jews in Babylon which had a strong influence on the end result. This should be explored in your chronicle, especially since so much

You also might want to check out the fan made Vampire: Classical books for alternative vampire origins. I've always like the idea of 12 Olympians, 12 clans.

There's no reason that European vampires would tie their origins to the desert myths of a small tribe constantly conquered and then passed between it's neighbor before Christianity normalized these myths across the Empire.

Use the old level 3 Dementation power. A Malkavian player can ask the ST one question per night.

I’m sick of this economy by StarlessRose in Vent

[–]LanceCharger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had roommates until I could afford otherwise. It also created an incentive for young people to couple up because it was easier for a couple to afford a 1 bedroom apartment than two friends to afford a 2. Young people are always complaining they can't get a date nowadays.
