I bought some new World of Darkness books from @DriveThruRPG for the V20 Vampire: The Dark Ages game I am planning. The British Isles is not mentioned in the corebook and 2+ players are super religious. The other book has Dragons, Hippogryphs & fucking Unicorns. Really #Vamily! ImageImageImageImage
British Isle's is the one I'm starting with, as the game will be set on the British Isles and I love it already, just because it just states that Robin Hood Prince of Thieves is a crap film (or crap at the Robin Hood mythos if we are going to be pedantic).
It is really weird seeing counties I know in a VtM book. I'm so used to seeing Europe this and America that. To see my county as one of The Baronies of Avalon is super cool to me.

The Cainite who rules it seems pretty cool too :3

#Vamily. Observe these two photos. If you do this with me, chances are, I will not have anything to do with you.

Allow me to indulge as to why...
The individual here has no real intention of supporting what I do really. They probably know who/what I am and are trying to grab my attention. At the very least, they know I post a lot of VtM stuff and know we are potentially ‘compatible’, for lack of a better word.
But that’s the problem. We aren’t. It’s not that they have a little following and I deem myself bigger and better. I’m not. The next tweet I write could blacklist my arse twice over and send me into Final Death quicker before I say Society of Leopold.

1/4 Today is a weirdly special day for me. One year ago today, I purchased and played #VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlines for the very first time, where I played a Tremere (I did the quiz, don’t judge). [THREAD] ImageImage
2/4 I knew nothing about the #WorldOfDarkness or #VtM, I only got it because people who had reviewed/critiqued Vampyr kept conparing it to #VtMB. I fell in love immediately with the setting.
3/4 This buggy masterpiece would send me down a large ravenous rabbit hole into an incredibly addictive pleasure-dome, in addition to me meeting some beautifully amazing people that would become some amazing friends.

1/3 “Laibon belief doesn’t focus on the isolation of the individual from the cosmic order. It doesn’t pit the cursed soul against a nihilistic force that erodes humanitas... #Vamily ImageImage
2/3...It traps the soul between the terrestrial threat of physical destruction and the spiritual crisis of psychic dissolution. It recognises vampires as just one conductor of the supernatural power that makes everything go.”... #VtM
3/3...(Kindred of The Ebony Kingdom, Chapter 3: Character Creation, Orun and Aye, p82)

Howdy, #vamily! A few new streaming chronicles have recently started, so it's a good time to look into the themes of Vampire. While these chronicles and your own certainly have their own themes, some ideas are almost universally true to Vampire stories. #Vampirethemasquerade

What will you do in the dwindling time you have left before succumbing to the Beast? This theme concerns itself with the price of power and the illusion of what it offers. The Kindred have great power, but it comes with a chained monster within them, tempting ever to monstrosity.

Alright #vamily let’s address an in game lore problem. Not as serious as usual, but still worth considering for in character #worldbuilding. Asymmetry of information, which is how I built the skeletons of my #worldofdarkness and usually #Vampirethemasquerade games ;)
We’re talking about a bunch of secret people who have been avoiding the dangers of travel whenever possible, and who live mostly through oral tradition (as anything else is possibly a Masquerade breach right). As such whenever one sires a childe, they are the sole educator.
And perhaps you might know how flawed home schooling can be. As such whenever a sire teaches a childe, information is lost, deformed, veiled by the sire’s experience and beliefs. And the childe isn’t always in the best position to be a good learner.

Alright #vamily thanks to your recent purchases on my merch store and the kofis, you get to win one of my books! #giveaway
There's FIVE copies of my biggest Copper Seller book on the #stvault on @DriveThruRPG.
You must find the link. Here's how!
The link is a tinyurl link, and the end of the url is the ASCII version of the author of the piece I used as a cover.
Easy enough right?
Good luck!
Code expires Friday the 20th.

The Anarchs are a sect or faction that has had perhaps the most varied history across the history of #Vampirethemasquerade. While the Camarilla and Sabbat are more extreme in their philosophy, the Anarchs have grown the most across editions. #vamily
The Anarchs began as almost analogous to the higher generations, perhaps even a subset of neonates. But as the editions progressed, the Anarchs became more and more a sect of their own, with their own distinct ideology and flavor. (Photo by Ahmed Klink)
One important thing to remember is that we released a lot of books during the revised era, because Vampire was the flagship WoD game. There were years when there were 10 Vampire releases on the schedule. As the developer I was splitting the difference between playable material...

#vamily! So I finished Coteries of New York by @DrawDistanceDev twice over, different #clans for #vampirethemasquerade, different routes. There's some positives, and of course, I'll keep this thread spoiler free.
On the plus side, there's no DLG going back and asking back the same questions, so there's no loops (which is good), the Log to scroll is good, the conversations feel a little more organic. Sound/Music is ok. Font sizes and text speed are good. The art is ok (esp background!)
I did like how out of three clan/characters options, the female one isn't the Toreador. Bummer is she is instead the "career oriented woman with no friends and no family". Black PC isn't the Brujah, so good!
But truth is, it almost never matters which character you play.

Those thou create are thine own childer. Until thy progeny shall be released, thou shalt command them in all things. Their sins are thine to endure.

That’s the Fourth Tradition: Accounting, and determines who’s allowed to stay undead in #VampireTheMasquerade #vamily
Like all Traditions, many Kindred consider the Tradition of Accounting to be a great idea that lends itself to abuse in practice. Accounting is intended to mandate responsibility, to curtail the havoc of the past, when Kindred Embraced whole broods and God help the world for it.
It’s the Damned’s version of checks and balances. If I’m responsible for my childer’s actions then so are you — so let’s be selective in who we bring under the veil of night. And if you can’t be trusted to do this responsibly, well, hello, Sixth Tradition. Anyway….

Thy Domain is thy concern. All others owe thee respect while in it. None may challenge thy word in thy Domain.

Those are some potent words, and millennia of interpretation has emerged surrounding what exactly this Tradition of Domain means.

#vamily #VampireTheMasquerade
In anything but the most tyrannical of cities, every Kindred has the right to some amount of domain. It may be as little as "your haven is your domain and anything else you have to enforce." It may be "a few blocks surrounding your domain."
Kindred in positions of authority who court popular support usually err on the more lenient side of interpreting the Tradition of Domain. For all that a city is a finite amount of space, vampires are rare enough that having a claim of one's own goes far.

Think about what you say! In #VampireTheMasquerade, choose your words carefully, and where appropriate, have them emphasize the Kindred condition. #vamily
For example, have Kindred refer to “tonight,” “this night,” “several nights from now,”etc. Unless they’re specifically referring to events that happen during the hours of daylight, they don’t often mention days.
By the same token, Kindred often say “mortal” instead of “human.” From a thematic perspective, “mortal” helps distinguish vampires from what they once were. Mortal concerns are different (or even lesser, depending on the ideology…) than those of the undead. (Art by Mark Kelly)
