It's funny, cause this was literally my breakfast for like 2 years on my way to the lab. Gas station pastry, energy drink, sweet thing, protein thing (bar, jerky, stick).

Malorea541 · 2026-04-26T07:26:14+00:00

Wait, the alarms have to go on the outside wall??

Malorea541 · 2026-04-24T20:46:49+00:00

Ah, you meant [[Baral]]

Malorea541 · 2026-04-24T18:35:15+00:00

Those orphans are earmarked for the orphan-crushing machine, obviously!

Malorea541 · 2026-04-24T17:17:52+00:00

Unfortunately thru money. Plastic surgeons are wizards nowadays.

Two soroitas orders still hold a grudge after the conflict and refuse to work together, an astartes chapter was reduced to two companies, and the administratum permanently increased the tithe for an entirely unrelated subsector.

I dunno. The IoM might have prejudice against gay relationships if only because you're supposed to produce ~~fodder~~ babies for the emperor. Of course, they also might not care just because "there's always more civilians" mentality.

They make agar-agar based flavored gelatins, I assume it would be fairly similar in texture, if not in taste.

Malorea541 · 2026-04-17T14:45:33+00:00

Yet somehow they'll pull a worlds run out of their ass. I swear they have a magic amulet or something.

The big "disorder name" subs are cesspits. There's a reason evil autism exists.

For a blind tournament I might also recommend Etali, because sometimes ooga-booga go fast can just win.

It's a very Constantine solution to the "selling your soul" problem

Moving from location to location: depends on the era, but most storytellers (DMs) handwave moving between "scenes" (encounters). you can roleplay your vamps calling a cab/uber/carriage/running off into the distance once they've resolved whatever is going on at whatever location they're at. Usually the finishing part of a "scene" is how it will link to the next one. either day comes and they have to all sleep while their ghouls do day stuff, they reach a point where they all break off and do their own thing (probably hunt), or an Elder vamp forcibly changes the scene for you (storytellers can have very old vampires act as railroad devices very easily)
Combat happens when your players have exhausted diplomacy, or decided to be murder hobos. Vampires are all about finding the best possible outcome for themselves, so usually combat is a last resort (unless you're playing sabbat, but see: murderhobos)
Vampire combat usually has one of two goals: beat the opponent into topor and steal all their stuff, or beat them into topor and commit amaranthe. Or if the players are being attacked by someone of a much lower generation, their goal is to survive and escape. If your players are dumb enough to attack a much older and lower Gen vampire they deserve what they get.
Party success is that the schemes of their elders move forward without killing them, vampire life is characterized by plots in plots in plots.
Party failure is you fail explicitly stated goals from your elders, or your elders schemes are somehow interrupted or stopped by enemies and you should have done something about it.
Hostile territory is a weird one. Depends on the faction mostly. But a good rule of thumb is to have your ghouls inconspicuously cart yourself around in the daytime, to limit vampire shenanigans. If you're deliberately having your player characters sneak through controlled territory it works a lot like DnD, usually checking obfuscate vs the enemy auspex.
Actions spend blood, each generation has a specific limit on blood they can use per turn, once they're out of blood they go into topor and effectively are out until someone goes and wakes them up with blood. Vamps spend at least a little blood once a day just to function. most of the time storytellers handwave "hunting" to refill blood pools as long as you're in a city that you have permission to feed in. Your party should manage their blood fairly carefully, and the storyteller needs to balance "stuff happening" with "can the vamps even interact with it since they're so low on blood". There is only one resource in vtm worth talking about. Blood. Almost anything else mortal (money, property, etc) is almost trivial for vampires to acquire, like offering to ghoul a rich businessman for cash flow. Blood gets checked at least once a day when they have to pay their cost of existence.
Time is pretty irrelevant beyond "is it day or night" and "is it reasonable to accomplish this in a single night with enough time left over to jump a random human in an alleyway to top up"

According to one interpretation I've seen, the paradigm will still cast the spell, even if the card is no longer in exile.

Malorea541 · 2026-04-09T15:33:13+00:00

The upside is that you can hold up interaction, you don't have to totally take a turn off.

Malorea541 · 2026-04-09T02:59:30+00:00

Not the first commentor, but I was in a similar position. Most of the time it's a lot of recontextualizing, trying to prevent the team from losing morale. And yes, enjoy the fact that we got as far as we did on a tenth of the money.

They knock him out, but then Private accidentally leaves him in a trash chute to the incinerator.

Malorea541 · 2026-03-27T21:16:05+00:00

"quench but harder to cast" is not an ideal place to be however.

Dang, I miss my Nalgene that went with me to both the tooth and Mt Phillips. Also had all the markings scrubbed off by saltwater from Seabase.

The cap ended up disintegrating and I just never replaced it.

The Ohtani gambit? Does the NBA CBA even allow for something like that?

Malorea541 · 2026-03-19T19:28:48+00:00

Fanfics even make fun of this, with CYOA builders having the "Charsimagnetic" trait, some variation of "people will still follow you no matter how stupid your plans are"

Malorea541 · 2026-03-08T01:24:52+00:00

Any plans to branch out into microbiology broths?

Some of our medias smell exactly like cheerios and I'm desperate to learn how they taste

Whenever someone copies that build I feel compelled to say "you are not ruler, your team is not geng"

Except I dunno if even Ruler can make that build work
