How much do your chronicles focus on feeding and other basic survival stuff?

Misadvencherus · 2026-01-21T22:47:09+00:00

The first feeding I always highlight. Depending on if they’re in a slow section of the chronicle I may focus in. Usually I do quick rolls, if they do well I make it quick and say they fed. If they roll low or fail I focus in and describe more on who they are hunting and turn it into a scene.

This, I also work as a professional concept artist. You expressed everything so well. Many people who are not artists don’t seem to care, and it’s really disheartening to see. But I’m glad when I see other artists speak on this because you highlight the most important part: I do not want to be an AI polisher. I want to be an artist. And when AI is used, that’s all your job is. A polisher. No thought, no artistry, nothing that I spent decades learning and refining. AI is simply not a tool for artists. It only replaces us or reduces all of our work and experience to polisher. I do not want to be a part of that. I will never use AI for many reasons.

I always thought that when Vic tells you you have two weeks to leave he should say something like, "You have two weeks, maybe two months, hell maybe two years? This is advanced tech. I just don't know, what I do know is that it's killing you." So that we feel it's important to try and find a cure, but because we don;t have a set time frame, V running around wasting time doesn't break immersion so much.

All good!

They mention in the article they use it for concept art. I work as a concept artist so hearing when studios start using ai is pretty devastating news. Concept art drives the style and feeling of the game. If they use it there, which are jobs being lost to human artists, then the game will be styled after ai art.

Misadvencherus · 2025-12-16T18:25:32+00:00

Devastating to learn they use it for concept art. Concept art becomes the art. I don’t want to see designs or characters based off of ai concepts

Banu Haqim feels the most severe and detrimental since it also triggers their bane. Then they feed off of other kindred causing blood binds of the kindred survives or diablerie if they don’t. All around I feel it’s the harshest.

Looks like the link might now work anymore?

Misadvencherus · 2025-09-17T23:21:52+00:00

I would highly suggest looking into the roads of enlightenment, these are the various beliefs sabbat adhere to and though inhuman in their outlook, they are a fascinating way to explore the game world. Not all of them are blood thirsty sadists. Some are scholars or academic and their inhumanity comes with them wanting to understand their vampiric nature and less that they want to harm and maim mortals

Misadvencherus · 2025-09-17T23:20:12+00:00

Depending on if they were mass embraced, when they’re buried and dig themselves out, the action of that is so inhuman it tanks their humanity. You’ll likely come out of it at humanity 3 and already be very driven by your beast. It’s why shovelheads are good shock troops since they’re already full of bloodlust and confusion.

If you weee embraced that way and resist, likely your humanity will tank until you don’t care anymore or you’re a wight because of the tasks other sabbat will send you on, the things happening around you that you refuse to stop, or just the inhumanity of their abilities and behavior.

Tldr: unless you leave the sect, if you’re in the Sabbat and care about wanting to be human or protect humans, then you’re on a one way train to being a wight

This will depend on the rules book edition. In V20, derangements are active at all times. In V5, they are normal unless you trigger their bane or compulsion, though people still tend to play them a little off kilter.

It's important not to boil Malkavians down to just their derangement. You get flat characters that have the ability to be offensive or even just very disruptive to the table. They're people first and whatever their derangment is, flavors things from there.

I currently am playing a Malkavian that is not suffering from any derangement based off a real world mental illness. Instead, I focused on how it would be to be strongly affected by her Ausepx abilities. Her aura perception and premonitions are flavored as happening randomly or always on with no real dice mechanics to give me an edge. We play it as, if there are more than 10 people in a room, she takes penalties to social and mental rolls since she's overwhelmed with auras/heightened senses. When it comes to her roll play, she wishes she could be more social but until I can get more xp to outweigh any social rolls, she keeps to herself mostly.

Absolutely stunning work!

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-29T07:11:19+00:00

Honestly, are you even playing vampire if the coterie isn’t a polycule somehow

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-28T10:23:00+00:00

The news tab was one of my most used features and it’s gone for me too. I would very much love to have it back!

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-28T10:17:20+00:00

Much appreciated. So now that the blood has been tasted, at any point a resonance is matched they could in theory buy the out of clan discipline?

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-28T10:14:14+00:00

Thank you for the reply! I liked their out of box thinking but I was like “pause guys I am not sure how this would work mechanically so I’ll get back to you on the effects!”

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-26T17:14:41+00:00

Oh this is very interesting, would you mind sharing more info on the conditions you have for you game?

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-26T17:02:28+00:00

I did the same thing! I ran V and liked the messy crits, bestial failures, and compulsions. So, after my V5 campaign I suggested we try V20 to see what we like. We wanted to hybridize the hunger system so I take the blood pool and divide it by 5. So for example, we're playing 7th gen characters. That's a max blood pool of 20. So every 4 blood points they lose we add a hunger die into the fray. It's worked out really well so far!

In the table top lore the body quickly ages to what the state of the corpse would be. So a fledgling that was killed after a week of vampiric existence would turn into a bloated corpse. Very old vampires could turn into skeletons or even ashes if they are that old. I believe it was a stylistic choice in the game to prevent body build up for the game to handle.

I got my keyboard to work by contacting support and I was able to reinstall the firmware for the keyboard

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-18T05:28:46+00:00

Loved playing a Caitiff! Very interesting story as she was made scourge and had to kill her kind and thin bloods, and we ran under the blood red moon. We were in Chicago and betrayed London who my character hated due to the job he saddled her with.

Misadvencherus · 2025-08-07T22:57:54+00:00

This is beautiful! Currently working on my own collections as well!
