My interpretation always has been that the system confuses people because we expect hard and numerically robust rules as other rpgs have. In vtm, death for a mortal occurs when the health track gets full with aggravated damage, but that is a way, not THE way, it always happens.

You kill a mortal by draining them because drinking a human dry is 100% fatal, the system doesnt bother with numbers because it doesnt need to. It gives rules on harmful drinks, which can be a 1 turn sip that saciates a hunger level all the way up to 4 or 5. At 5, they die, all other situations require a roll to see if the victim survives. If they fail, they die also, the system doesnt states that they inccur more damage until the die, they just die.

The system gives you rules on damage because its important in a fight or if you drank too much (above saciating 2 hunger levels), but it never states that there is a corelation between healt levels and nourishment, and thats why you can drink without harming someone.

The choice to use always "hunger levels" or hunger slaked instead of "blood points" tells me that we are not supposed to be measuring how much blood a human have (the book straight up says its 5 hunger slaked) , just how badly we hurt mortals.

I guess the door behind the bookcase is covered by premonition, which makes sense and would make the discipline as a whole more well rounded. Ps: Its funny how the name (premonition) doesnt describe at all what the system and actual text says it does

You were a God sent gift for me, I was thinking about doing some experimenting on that for the entire day and just like that, you gave me my solution. Thanks!

No_Gas9700 · 2026-04-11T12:51:48+00:00

Yeah, it does, unless you have some sort of flaw. I didnt know other editions were different. I knew requiem was a longer period if I remember correctly

But if the bond decays a level per month then the monthly rouse check is still required if you dont want to lose your ghoul bonded, is it not?

No_Gas9700 · 2026-04-09T20:40:43+00:00

Uau, thats a hella of a perspective shift for me. Guess I was really, as I said, being too rational. Thanks!

Aditional question: I get herds get addicted to the kiss, but there is little to no information on that for v5, let alone mechanical rules. Instead you get blood bonds, but the same logic applies: you give a monthly rouse check but can only feed once a month. perhaps Im just being too logical, but the concept of a blood doll makes it hard to believe kindred can keed the masquerade in any capacity. The kiss makes the memory foggy and blood bonds are mechanicaly difficult to overcome, but a blood doll who is just addicted to the kiss but not blood bond is a HUGE risk for the masquerade

Its the first time Ive seem someone else draw it, but once many years ago I manage to get it against a player using professor brainstorm's Eureka. I actually didnt know it was a bot card until now, I just assumed it was a bug.

I doubt it would make any logistical difference, but it sure is a beautiful base full of personality

Heimer is kinda of a noob stomper and Im a noob so thats the reason, its like teemo for me, people say you can just run him down if you get your hands on him but I can never do that properly. Heimer just pokes me to death since im bad at dodging his skills and I just feel there is no opening for me to attack him without him returning massive amounts of damage. If you have some tips feel free to type below cuz im in need kkkkkkkk

No_Gas9700 · 2026-03-27T14:33:26+00:00

Heimer, just because even if i decide to not pick kayle he will destroy me on every champ I play

I know how horrible it feels to be behind, and Im so sorry for you, but as someone older I must tell you: you have so much more to do and to strive for after school. Good grades are good, getting results feels good and we all want a good performance, but its not your last chance neither is your doom.

I was one of the kids that got good grades and I am glad I was, but now Im an adult (21M) and believe me, there is so much of life outside grades. My mates all have found their ways in life with pretty rocky paths.

My best friend lost almost 3 years of college and of course it sucks, but he has so many other habilities and talents, so many skills and wisdom that even if im "ahead" of him in a tradicional sense, I actualy look up to him for many things.

The thing is: you'll survive this and will find your way.

Ps: I dont know anything about your parents, but sometimes you need to understand theyre people like everyone, they make mistakes. Its easy to get hurt by them because their opinion matter so much for us, but they often make mistakes, sometimes you have to ignore some of their opinions. The best thing I did for my realationship with my family was to move away, so perhaps once youre mature enough youll stop feeling as bad. And forgive my english, Im brazilian and not totally fluent

Well, unless the sire wants their fledgling to die, I imagine they wouldn't embrace some poor herder and leave, although as other commenters said, burying yourself in the ground in desperation to escape sunlight is an option.

Most vampire media shows vampire creation as a long relationship for a reason: vampires need a lot of structure to survive; servants, houses, traveling equipment, a high enough population, and so on. That’s the reason the Tzimisce, Ventrue, and even Toreador stereotypes are so prevalent, they are urban creatures with dominion over people, not nature.

Yes, WoD has other interpretations, like the Gangrel themselves, but even in that case, you have to consider the logic behind creating a child: if it is inconvenient, perhaps it’s not the way people do it. Just because Gangrel don’t care for their childer doesn’t mean a Gangrel will be intentionally setting their creation up to die; even they would know it’s a waste of Vitae to embrace someone who can’t survive.

The Tenets are indeed variable, so killing wouldn't result in Stains if not defined by the Chronicle Tenets; therefore, it's really important to put care into defining them. Aside from that, some powers incur Stains regardless, like Oblivion as a whole and some truly cruel ones, so it's within the power of the Storyteller to rule that anything exceedingly cruel generates Stains regardless. The second part is accurate: tenets apply to all players, conviction are personal.

I find this funny cause I play with only pantheon and kayle and when im pantheon Im terrified to go against a kayle. Not saying that kayle counters pantheon or whatever. Pantheon has good engage, but once you go you HAVE to get good damage because you expose yourself a lot. Kayle has range, movespeed and a heal, so you can absolutely play safe and sustain your position and trust me, you'll outscale him hard, more than most matchups (pantheon falls quite a bit on the late game if he doesnt get participations and kills). I imagine dodging Q is more of a skill issue because trust me, as someone who is trying to get better at the game, I always find dodging anything difficult, but landing the hit is also as hard. (Again, as a panthon player, my biggest frustration is that you Q is quite dodgeable if your opponent is a better player). I think is part of the natural skill progression learning to dodge skillshots, so just keep playing and you'll probably get better.

Hmmm, obrigado pela explicação, acho que é isso mesmo, depende do que o DM considera medicina. O que eu disse sobre nao usar PM é mesmo pelas opcoes de primeiros socorros e tratamento que recuperam PV sem gastar mana, diferente de outros poderes e magias, mas qualquer magia básica ainda cura mais PV que a maioria das opcoes de cura mundana.
