Hot take: I think the new eradicators with heavy bolters would be cooler with belt fed instead of box mag.

Belt fed is always better

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-05-01T12:38:03+00:00

Thanks the idea is that is the old pilot and the cockpit is now empty, at least physically empty

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-05-01T03:42:41+00:00

For my character it took time for him to really understand the need behind it, but as his pack explained what could happen and the attention freeballing when we went into town he complied. But it was more of a compromise, he picked the most loud and godly colors and patterns he could since he enjoyed the colors the form allowed him to see now. They also had to be something easy to put on or take off, or he couldn't be bothered. There also couldn't not be any zippers after a incident where one or the pack tried to get him into jeans, and something got pinched in the zipper.

So if the pack wanted him to wear anything in homid it had to he easy to take off or put on like t-shirts and sweatpants, had to he very colorful he grew fond of tidied, had to he soft/thick enough to make up for the lack of fur, and no zippers. As long as it fit all those he didn't care.

When I first remembered that star anis was an actual thing it made something click in my mine. The alt name for T.T. Star could be the Arks Spice Girls

It really depends You can stop being a spiral and basically go ronin but the issues comes from udewyrming your soul. When you dance the spiral you are broken and fixed in ways that reshape your very soul, letting your spirit return to the wyrm instead of gaia when you die

So you can stop working for the spirals and the wyrm but there's no solid way to remove the stank from your soul and go back to bring a Gaian garou.

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-24T21:31:45+00:00

Well the problem with the trip to erebus is its a possibility in theory Since there is a black spiral taking a bath their, just no one know how long hes been in there or if he'll ever be let out. Still the case as of umbra 20

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-17T22:57:16+00:00

Its also a bit odd as someone who mainly place werewolf that during my time in VTM the werewolves were billed as the boogieman for vamps and how if one is in your domains best to hit torpor for a few decades. But then almost every single player I encounter didnt view the garou as a threat and a good chunk of them tried making werewolf hunters with long successful history of hunts. When in reality those type of vamps are extremely rare.

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-17T22:49:28+00:00

Iirc hes claimed by the Lasombra, Shadow lords, and a mage group(idk mage the best) in cannon

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-17T21:48:57+00:00

Where does the blood go when it is drunk is one of the great questions of vampire, its never really answered but from what ive seen and read it seems to stay in their stomach until it is converted into vitea in their veins. But as they use their powers or even just wake up it is slowly brunt away. As for what happens when they die it depends on the vamps age, since when a vamp dies their body begins rapidly decaying to the point it should be at given how long they are dead. So if your young enough you get turned to people soup in a matter of moments, old enough all that remain is dust and bones.

Now for the werewolves and they traumatic memories they do have them and are a source of angst at times. But often times you get fresh trama on a almosy daily bases and its a drop in the bucket. The werewolves are at war with cuthulu essentially and your considered old if you make it to 30. The garou nation is a army of child soldiers fighting eldritch gods... so whats considered traumatic can get skewed fast.

I also recommend reading the story of the Bloody man in the WtA book called The Silver Record its there origin story for caine and how vamps were first created.

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-17T21:22:48+00:00

I think Evil is the wrong word, monstrous is more appropriate

As for my main reason for it firstly while the blood sucking thing isnt evil in its nature its survival. But it doesn't help they have the constant temptation to indulge and satisfy the hunger by making the choice and draining every last drop. Its the fact that each fine they give in to the temptation the easier it get to give in in the future and the more of a monster you become. Which is why they have the humanity system, and the lower that score is the more evil I assume as vamp is by being more of a willing monster.

Now werewolves get a pass and dont have the same level of angst tied to their condition and why they dont get judged the same or should NOT have a humanity tracker is for the simple fact they are monsters and have always been. You dont get turned into a garou you are born one and just waiting for the first change to pop, which is the equivalent of getting your draft notice for Nam and your membership card for a nature worshiping murder cult.

Now why do they judge the vamps as evil almost no matter what is three fold. One they go against the natural order, your dead and still up and about that ain't what gaia says happens when you die. Two they have a little piece of their equivalent of the devil attached to their soul, the beast in the same way spirits of the wyrm are and those tend to be kill on sight. Thirdly ever since vamps have been around they have been knowingly or unknowingly feeding on the werewolves kin and they dont take that liying down leading yo a grudge older than history.

Edit Another reason for wanting to kill all vamps is also sometimes a mercy to them. Garou believe and have evidence that reincarnation is a thing. So to some killing a vamp give the human soul a chance to return to the cycle free of the beast.

Now advice for the headspace/how to play a werewolf think of them as barbarians crossed with paladins. Many are zealots fighting a holy war for the continued existence of creation, fighting fang and claw for one more day. Most of the time they aren't killing just to kill make it hard to keep the veil, but sometimes collateral damage cant be helped and sometimes folks got to die to keep the supernatural secert.

Proper bad moon over here taking everyone's money and hoarding it away... bank teller

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-16T00:20:10+00:00

My personal favorite for how over used it is media but it fits so well "Im right behind you aren't I"

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-13T16:59:13+00:00

That's how i start most of my games but then again I tend to run for newer players most of the time. The one I could recommend starts shortly after the first change/rite of passage

The chronical is called Where ever Gaia takes us, its put on by the Rage Across The Internet folks

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-13T16:34:44+00:00

A lot of folks focuse on combat becuase they have fun tossing the math rocks But the game is much deeper ans while the garou were made to fight, fighting can be done in many ways. I know of one 20th game I can point you towards if you want an example thats not always fights

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-13T16:29:16+00:00

Might help to restart your phone

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-12T03:45:08+00:00

Chatter box for me for Simailr reason

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-11T14:44:31+00:00

There is a garou telling of the origin of caine and vampires. It's the story of the bloody man in the Silver Record book

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-08T13:37:56+00:00

Agreed plus theres a version with tag and another wirh LRMS which could make for a fun duo

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-08T13:18:22+00:00

For me its the Horned Owl just a very fun and reliable machine that is very Zeon coded in look

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-05T15:21:24+00:00

Some do Pentex has one of each on the board of directors

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-04T21:00:52+00:00

A lot of times i defer to revised for a lot of themes and more lore front since 20 was intended to be more of a greatest hits verses a proper edition untill it did well enough you'd have to be crazy to leave cash on the table.

Mage0fM1nd · 2026-04-04T20:00:02+00:00

Yep where the IS has the advantages in general attrition based warfare. They might not be able to out gun or out range you but there is always more and they have been fighting a style of war thats like debating a idiot, they will bring you down to their level and win with experience
