OOC - Vampire: The Masquerade

Spectrum says:

"can vampires read other vampires mindss????"

According to Malkavian legend, when Malkav was killed, all his childer came to his corpse and drank the blood of their father, thus collectively diablerizing Malkav. He is said to speak inside each and every Malkavian's soul and connects them into one collective consciousness. This "hive mind" is sometimes called "the Cobweb" or "the Malkavian Madness Network", which contains each thought and memory that any Malkavian in the world has ever had (and sometimes is about to have).

"I just have a few questions about the Gangrel. I know we drink human Blood, but do we drink animals or is it strictly against our nature? And we get along with the Nos but they don't like us?"

this page has lots of information about the Gnagrel on it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gangrel_%28World_of_Darkness%29

The only people the Nos don't like are the Toreador

iv been reading up on the vamps myself aswell but thanks

Okay well I'm off to bed, chaps. Any questions, I'll answer them when I get to work tomorrow. I'll write and post the main thread tomorrow too.

ok, so.......We're the masquerade, right? So that means we have ties to werewolves? and if it says control over the beast in a vampire's soul, well....what does that mean?

"Cryo-Wolf says:

"Which clan is allies with Which? or, Which ones are allies with Gangrel?"

That's something we can work on in the RPG but traditionally, the Gangrel get on well with the Nos and the Nos get on well with the Ventrue. The Tremere are a law unto themselves. The Brujah hate the Ventrue and the Toreador get on with everyone except the Nos while playing their own power games in the background.
Tlieso, does that sound about right to you?"

what about Malkavian are they just carzy fellas going mad evry where?"

Known for their insanity and most other vampires don't talk with them unless they must. Aside from their insanity, Malkavians are privy to immense insight into things that would otherwise be unknown. These insights sometimes surface in whispers emanating from (but not spoken by) other Kindred. "

hang on what you mean by the last bit, that the other clans all know about whats happening???

have a good night WS. i'll be on after work around 6-7pm or so. looking forward to the RPG starting!

i think that it means that the Malkavians know all kinds of information about other clans that the other clans themselves barely speak of. like they know the other clans secrets kinda.

nice i like the demtcia thing LETS GET CRAZY!!

well im off to bed night night evry one

night spectrum

can I join the Brujah please?

That's entirely up to Arrow :D

"That's entirely up to Arrow :D"

Are you going to use Isabell? Or Walkingstone? And are you going to use a different picture?

I'm gonna use WS and a new pic, yeah. Well maybe. She might be a different name by then with different powers, we'll see. Can't use Issabella because she's Nosferatu.

We dont have our powers right? We have Vampire powers and weakness?

Right. I'm compiling a list of the basic powers for the main thread then on top you have the clan specific powers. For example, all vampires can shape-shift into either bats or wolves but only the Gangrel can assume more forms (any predator or scavenger)

are there any leader places left ?

Nosferatu. That's it I'm afraid. Check the front page for a brief run-down of what they can do. You could always be a second-in-command, just ask one of the other leaders.

I have to post this here. Check it out, its Buffy with a little twist for Gambler.

Nice production of that. The music fits perfectly. Who knew Angelus was really a Sith ;)

I did, he's always dressed in black thats a sure sign of a Sith.

I dress in black a lot, I'm not a Sith :P

Walkingstone says:

"I dress in black a lot, I'm not a Sith :P"

Would you tell us if you were ;)

LOL, no, maybe I'm a mole inside the VV ;)

Walkingstone says:

"LOL, no, maybe I'm a mole inside the VV ;)"

Prettiest mole I've ever seen :)

Charmer :D Our Toreador leader is a right charmer.

You are souverainement beau.

blushes Thank you

Maybe you should be in somebodys clan, we kinda need a more experienced player to lead the Clan of Nosferatu.

Lil Lucky says:

"Hiya... im off school today with really bad hayfever... can i be Nosferatu? We was doing Dracula in english class and i really enjoyed it... they sound soooo cool! :-)"

You're very new, so maybe you should build up your RPG skills before leaping into this. Vampire's gonna be a very complicated RPG, lots of plot twists and character development. How about you watch for a while then me and you can work on a way to get you into one of the other clans? We can see how well the RPG does first, okay? Hope you don't mind :)

Right chaps, I'm off. I'll be back at lunchtime.

Sure, at lunchtime, I will do

Im gonna be Toreador.

Little question. How does one join a vampire clan? Is it through birth or are there rights of passage? Just asking. Also would it be possible to be a lone vampire without a clan?

Vampires join a clan by being embraced, made a vampire. Who ever sires you, you're automatically their clan. So if Cassander embraced you, you'd be Toreador, or if I embraced you, you'd be Ventrue. Therefore it's not possible (at least not in this RPG) to be clan-less. Gotta pick a side and play along with that clan, sorry.

Ok thnx. Can vampires be born vampires. Sry Ive had very little experience with The Masquerade in the past.

Nope, you gotta be embraced to be a vamp, gotta be turned. It's the general rule with most vampire myths.

Cool. Got my background sorted now.

Any questions with it, let me know, I've got a load of wiki sites saved

What? We cant be pure bloods?

Cassander says:

"Walkingstone says:

Sure, you're a pure blooded Toreador. The first generation vampires are all dead or hibernating (check with Tlieso about that). So you'd consider yourself to be a pureblood but not actually be one. If that makes sense

The thread's up peeps :)

Holy $#@!, this is gonna be badass.

I'm actually alittle nervous to post :)

Aww don't be, just jump on in, it's gonna be fun! Pretty please?

Walkingstone says:

"Aww don't be, just jump on in, it's gonna be fun! Pretty please?"

I did. All the posts look really nice I think. Stone you really have a large vocabulary, its really beautiful.

Thank you :) And yeah, the posts are gorgeous, so opulent, just like vampires should be. I can't wait to see where this goes.

Before anyone say Valadour is me, Some of you already know this some dont,;)

I'll edit the beginning of the main thread to say Valadour (Last Arrow). That way no one will get confused.

Lmfao. You have no idea whats going on do you.
