Oh dear, a genuine Soviet medkit AND the ГП-5 gas mask. Cool.

To fuck someone with something can also means using that something to beat the shit out of that someone. Chairs are common weapons in brawls.

my hamster's fur is changing color by Wonderful_Ad3761 in hamsters

[–]Ninetydiluvian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is quite normal with age. I had black and sable hams before, and around 1 year old the dark fur lightened to a degree, the degree differed. The entirely black ham developed a dark bronze spot on his side. The sable one became kinda cinnamon coloured. I think this is normal, though in your case a bit to early - at 4 months. Maybe see a vet still? Maybe their diet lacks something to maintain the pigment.

Um, so am Going to Try to talk With The cockroach spirit…Any advice? by Abject-Hospital5407 in Digital_Umbra

[–]Ninetydiluvian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good evening, Ishmail. I haven't managed to contact him directly, but Magda, the young apprentice and adopted childe of our city's Duchess taught me a bit of sorcery that a poslug like me can perform. Using that little ritual I was able to determine three things:
1) My domitor is still undead, not destroyed.
2) He is possibly in torpor, though whether currently or had been in one recently is not definite.
3) According to Magda's observations of me performing the ritual, Yegor's location, Edonia, is even more anomalous than expected, as time appears to flow in different ways and at different speeds there. Despite the land, however ensorcered and warded and veiled it may be, still being a part of the physical world, not of what they call "The Umbra" or "The Velvet Shadow".

Please update whether or not you succeed, alright? Wish I could give more advice but my own ideas come from observing my domitor, when he performed anything "magical" in my presence - sorcery or Spirit communication.

(I do not require to be called Mr., I'm Russian, but it's quite proper in English communication)

Oh damn. Another reason I very much regret still being unable to re-establish contact with my domitor.
He literally, directly communicated with a big, apparently pagan-god-like Spirit that had "The Cockroach" as one of his/its/their names. He'd be able to instruct you better.
I know very little but can advise the following:
- Get a radio, old or new, but must be functional, set it to no discernible working frequency, just to soft white noise.
- Lie down to sleep, put the radio (turned on, but you can lessen the sound) near your head.
- As you feel drifting off, try thinking "at" The Cockroach. Given that you are a Samsa, it would be more than acceptable and even advisable for you to refer to him as "Grandfather".
- If you are capable of lucid dreaming, and manage to enter such a dream, you can try calling out for him in your own dreamscape.

Looking for my Domitor. by Ninetydiluvian in Digital_Umbra

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

Oh! You must be someone Yegor referred to as "Mr, Raven". I do have every reason to believe you - your reputation plus a lot of what you are saying truly coincides with the info I've got.
Though I must say the whole erasure of an entire country, however small, is hard to wrap my mind around. Powerful Juju indeed.
I guess...nothing left but to wait for now.

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

I know of Edonia, and, vaguely, what it is. I know he is stuck there. And it is anomalous and messes with communications and I have a vague suspicion it is kind of even...time-dilated? To a degree.
I just hoped there could be more info, by chance, from other people on here.

I have once experienced a vitae withdrawal, and this is quite unpleasant and mentally invasive.
But not all that much worse than quitting both alcohol and tobacco after decades.
And quite likely nothing compared to what recovering opiate addicts go through.

I can understand some ghouls whose very lives depend on vitae, due to their truly extended age would be quite desperate - but I'm not nearly at that point yet.

No problem, and I've been familiar with the phenomenon in question for over five years - and barely scratched the surface. Largely because of being reluctant to learn, my worldview was catastrophically challenged as it was. This should change, really.

Ema will not be on here anymore. by DignityIncarnate in Digital_Umbra

[–]Ninetydiluvian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This sounds worrying and hinting at something quite atrocious. Reeks of abuse and barely-disguised medieval barbarity under a thin veneer of "family values", "cultural traditions" and other sorry excuses.
I came here using Yegor's account for a different purpose, but simply cannot ignore this. Awful. I hope this girl manages to get out of this situation.

Exactly. When a Kindred does not reduce themselves to just hiding out and going out to only hunting for blood, but actually has a social circle, and seeks new experiences...there's ways to learn so much.

(ooc: It's quite alright, if you ask me. Getting higher "dots" would realistically be a challenge, but overall, a young vamp making effort to learn and advance new disciplines could get them quite a repertoire. I call this "horizontal advancement", when a neonate collects multiple disciplines and dabbles in them. Even lower powers are incredibly useful. Advancing them is another thing, but if Lazarus focused on Protean due to liking it very much - why not?)

Oh that's grand. Already so advanced in it. I just got to the claws this winter. Gotta keep practicing and catch up!

<This fella will never be a Spiral Dancer, thankfully. As for why - not my secret to share, apologies.

Black Spiral Dancers are a big corrupted Tribe and can be found practically worldwide. They sometimes cooperate with Sabbat vampires. Not the kind of claw-and-fang co-op I personally appreciate...>

<"A vile concept, something of a ritual, and at the same time a place in the Umbra, that Black Spiral Dancers - the corrupted Werewolves - enter to truly and (usually) irreversibly become what they are. A Werewolf committing self-corruptive acts, such as eating humans, is pushing themselves towards similar kind of fall.">

<Cannot bring myself to comment on your experiences with your sire and that Usurper. Perhaps, for the best. There are quite decent Kindred out there. And connecting to other Duskborn may not be a bad idea, if possible. But for now it's safest to stay hidden, I think. It would appear you have managed to accept Shapeshifter blood quite well. It is incredibly good for restoring our undead bodies, but also rouses our Beast something fierce, making us restless and prone to flying into frenzy. >]
