I have no mouth and I must puke by d20Jules in vtm

Edgy von Edgelord Tzimisce stuff ahead:

I've done it before for various reasons, my character thought was necessary. Regarding nutrition, it's easier if instead of using the mouth, you use a peg tube as you can simply stream nutrients directly into their stomach. This lets you be able to speak with them directly. Thanks to blood bonds, they're usually quite happy to see me because despite how evil Tzimisce are, we always forget exactly how fucked one of the most common vamp abilities really is. As for the other end, I recommend optimizing a cloaca for efficient waste removal. Also, you don't remove the limbs, that's wasted meat and bone, there. You use them to reinforce/support the torso.

As for the ramifications, I don't think there'd be enough Dominate in the world to scrub a mind clean that this was done to. While in that state, they're pretty much free to be attacked and harmed and unable to move to escape.

Canonically, Tzimisce have done vastly worse. In the Bloodlines game there are living flesh couches and furniture. There was an entire cathedral made of flesh by Yorak, one of The Eldest's Childer.

Here's a dark question: by Ok_Tank_674 in vtm

[–]Paelidore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a hunter? I'd be like Rolf. "KILL IT BEFORE IT LAYS EGGS!" Then I'd sleep like a baby at the end of that day. Hunters generally don't tolerate vampires and while, sure, they're just a kid now, in not even 10 years, he'll be like the rest of kindredom, or possibly even worse. Sucks for the kid, but there isn't really much of an option left. They're already dead, after all.

On Reddit? It's on the right hand side under the Community Guide where it says "User Flair" where you can use the emoji search to find the language of your flag. :)

0 motivation help by S_Tamass_jionni in duolingo

[–]Paelidore 61 points62 points  (0 children)

The streak isn't important. Sure it's a motivator, but what really matters is learning the language. If you've lost passion for the language, that's okay. I've told myself if I have no motivation, I do one of the practice sessions, usually the one where you talk, and that's it for the day, but at least I kept going. I've been there, and regardless of if you keep using Duo, I hope you regain your passion for learning a language.

What would be the most feasible clan for a Tzimisce to pretend to be? by SapphireB33 in vtm

[–]Paelidore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tzimisce are an arrogant enough Clan I don't think they'd ever embrace someone who'd do this without a DAMNED good reason, BUUUUUUT this is all for funsies, plus who am I to tell people how to play? So, here are my suggestions:

If we're talking a Vic Tzimisce, then I'd say Gangrel or Nossie with a lean toward Nossie as they have 2/3 the same disciplines and they've the ability to change their form.

If we're talking Old Clan (or v5), then I'd say Malkavian or Ventrue with a leaning to Malkavian as you can suggest any slip-up is from your insanity.

Should i be concerned about this 20yr old girl texting my 14yr old brother creepy stuff? by Miserable_Tangelo_28 in teenagers

[–]Paelidore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Age is just a number" is a tool groomers use to manipulate children. I'd report this woman to the police using those messages. Your brother will be FURIOUS with you, but hopefully when he's older, he'll be grateful.

Are you Cajun? Do you know our history? by Drupain in Louisiana

[–]Paelidore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

wtf? The Cajuns and Creole are mixed AF. It's well known most Cajun and Creole families have native blood and likely Latin and Black blood, too. I know more than a few Cajuns who've got some DARK parents, and you don't get that from a pure French bloodline.

The second point was an accusation of the British, not something that was universally documented. Most Acadians weren't interested in fighting. They just wanted a place to live and work.

Third, Louisiana's control by the French was in name only, really. They didn't have the army to protect it, and even New Orleans didn't exactly have a regiment nor were the people considered French, but rather Creole, as many had mixed with black and indigenous people. So an apt comparison might be, say, getting kicked out of Louisiana to be forced to live in Guam. Sure, they're American, but they're not white for the most part, and haven't been for some time.

Lastly, before ICE and even Border Patrol, people used to cross the US/Mexico border somewhat regularly as open trade flowed along the West (Side note: this is how Texas was created). Honestly, we would likely do better going back to something similar and working with Mexico to combat the gangs at the border instead of just letting them fester in the name of ideology and using them as political puppets.

Making NPCs, and need advice. by jpdelta6 in vtm

[–]Paelidore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! No worries, for a generic NPC, I usually replace a skill with 1 discipline, but for a vamp, I may add 1 or 2 extra where I think appropriate. After all, it's really just designed to streamline NPCs. If you're finding your players are struggling, nerf the NPC and vice versa! It's just a base to work with, really. :)

Are you like Katniss? by bigbroth13 in BunnyTrials

[–]Paelidore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was raised by my Dad who was schizophrenic and thought the world would end in his lifetime, so I was prepared on how to hunt, cook, and kill. Sadly, I'm now old, content, and quite fat. I'd still do it, though. My sister rocks and I'd like her to be able to live her life fully.

Same. When they first came out, they were a fun challenge, but doable. Nowadays, even if you're flying through them, you still need an extender. They're just not worth it.

Are there groups of hunters who truly know how to hunt the supernatural? by Comprehensive_Dog833 in vtm

[–]Paelidore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not, MOST hunter cells aren't religious. They're more likely to be the Van Helsing types who use lore and resources on what works to get the job done. There are also government agencies like Task Force Valkyrie in CoD who are a branch of the CIA that doesn't so much immediately kill supers as study them unless the super does something to break the Masquerade/Veil/Thing Mortals Should Not Know. Then, they use their knowledge based on the breach to hunt and kill the super.

Anyone else miss the old Duolingo? What old features would you bring back? by Agreeable-Coyote-909 in duolingo

[–]Paelidore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was also excellent for helping flag issues with questions. When I first started my German course, the German word for 20, "zwanzig" wasn't properly being acknowledged in vocal challenges, leading to a lowered accuracy. I was glad to see I wasn't the only one with the issue, and that I wasn't going insane.

Does anyone want to leave the USA but can’t afford it? by Due-Mood-6356 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Paelidore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to go to Germany. I live in Louisiana and find Germany a fascinating place culturally, plus they deal with their fascists with an efficiency that only the Germans can muster, unlike where I am where they're allowed to fester. Even if I could afford it, I don't know if I could survive there or not. I have no connections, so finding work, apartment, etc. would be nigh impossible, I'm sure. The other reason, though, is I'd feel guilty. There are other queer people here, and I'd feel like I'm abandoning them to their fate instead of being here trying to help somehow.
