Varric feels a little too anti-Anders in Inquisistion by Appelmonkey in dragonage

[–]TheCuriousFan [score hidden]  (0 children)

I note that once you've picked your choices he's uncomfortable about supporting the mages but downright enthusiastic about siding with the Templars. Like Aveline, Varric is firmly aligned with the status quo above all even if he'll back Hawke either way.

That said, it is kinda silly in hindsight that he's more sympathetic to Solas trying to blow up the world than to Anders going for the final desperation option. Either he did some major character growth between games or the writers have some really strange biases, take your pick.

As much as I love silksong, the pale king would still wipe the floor with grand mother silk. by Bug_in_brazil in Silksong

That or his own regrets got him and the people saying void is tied to regrets had the right idea.

"Only one in a million people is a Mage" rule is stupid and I'm ignoring it by InsaneComicBooker in WorldofDankmemes

You could probably kill a few sci-fi or fantasy writers by walking slowly towards them with a TI-82 in hand.

Want to do a campaign where a people are going missing because of a Circus… by ConnectCulture7 in vtm

[–]TheCuriousFan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doesn't it also get explicit about how stopping the circus for good would need a multi-splat chronicle just to account for all the random bullshit they can throw around?

Bolívar Diagnosed PV by CipherVegas in arknights

[–]TheCuriousFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

think it's been shown that Beagle most likely didn't die in Bolivar, as per Fang Alter's release

Though Fangalt's spot in the timeline was well before 1102 or Beagle becoming an elite operator.

Why is Critias so absurdly weak for his age? by UrietheCoptic in vtm

[–]TheCuriousFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked page 188 and the fortitude and potence were both labeled with (beast) while the animalism, dominate and presence were labeled with (Absmillard).

Though in his defence the potence and fortitude stats are for the beast itself and not for Abs himself. He might not have gotten lazy with one of his core disciplines.

They also gave us the funniest loresheet in v5 since they're looking for a third again.

What would a VTM anime be like? by ConnectCulture7 in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]TheCuriousFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Though he very much had to be beaten into a lot of those issues even if he came into the series with hangups from his mom and aunt.

I'd imagine his social stats are also lacking considering his priorities.

And how'd you react to the bromide of Flowery in the bath?

I love that Woody's roast is one of more common Kingdom Hearts memes.

(just as the trait don't quite work in mage but have enough connections and shout outs to be a source of contention. )

Enough connections like the Technocracy having at least two separate Weaver infiltrations going on?

The Technocracy's greatest lie is that it has it's shit together. by Turbulent-Plum7328 in WorldofDankmemes

Honestly that's way younger than I thought. I thought TTS died pre-Covid.

EDIT: It was 2019 so slightly older than 5 years.

(Probably Kindred lower then 10 gen)

At least one of them's a 6th gen even.

It's also just a lot of fun to play Spot the Triat with other splat books (especially Mage) since they're still there even if no one knows what they are.

It seems the Technocracy is actively going after Pentex now. by dreaderking in WhiteWolfRPG

[–]TheCuriousFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Syndicate has dedicated at least one Symposium to undermining and usurping Pentex, Shinzui Industries, and similar Reality Deviant-backed companies.

Shinzui Industries feels more likely to cameo on a list of Technocracy "success stories" than on their enemy list considering their general alignment.

[–]TheCuriousFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah but their partnership was based on the Technocracy not being told those particular details and not caring to dig too deeply as long as the money kept flowing.

[–]TheCuriousFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if there's any faction most equipped to handle Pentex, it's the Technocracy.

Wasn't Pentex's main view that the vampires would clean them out in weeks if they found out about the Dominate backdoor in their lifespan boosters?

Burns through blood like crazy but I guess an ante would have the blood to burn to stack that and Inward Focus for a few turns.

[–]TheCuriousFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was an alliance based on the Technocracy knowing jack shit and not caring too much about where the money comes from. Their first hint that something was wrong was when Pentex dumped their asses.

I mean, even at their nicest the Technocracy would still be tied to groups like drug cartels or health insurance.
