This is incredibly well done. I look forward to seeing what else you cook up, and I would kill for a copy.

V5: Ventrue, Toreador, Banu Haqim, Tremere (Schrekt subfaction), Nosferatu, Malkavian, Lasombra. Pre-V5: Ventrue, Toreador, Malkavian, Brujah, Gangrel, Tremere, Nosferatu. 😎 Calm down, ladies- one at a time.

I’ve never tried VTM LARP, but I love hearing from those who had play it or what the scene was like in the 90s/early 2000 Resolving conflicts through rock-paper-scissors still seems strange to me. So, I could just beat an elder as long as I win a round of rock-paper-scissors?

I usually don’t care much about battle royale games, but the gameplay and setting won me over. Don’t worry given how the player population is going, depending on when you log in, you’ll likely encounter more bots than players lol

It does seem like a crime that the bloodhunt city and all their assets can't be reused to make another VTM project.

I definitely regret dismissing the game initially. I only started playing it last year, but it’s clear the developers were passionate about bringing vtm to life and the customization is excellent—if only there were more face options and Tzimisce archetype By the way, I love the lore videos!
comment in response to post
It seems like choices matter significantly more in Night Road from what I’ve played. I’m currently playing Parliament of Knives, the character feels proactive and influences the plot. So far, it’s full of intrigue and Machiavellian schemes, as is expected in a Camarilla-focused game.

If you’re looking for lore content from WH40k to Trench Crusade, and, of course, great WOD videos. I highly recommend @glueboy.bsky.social's channel. For VtM, The Gentleman Gamer is another excellent option. If you’re into history told with coloured cubes check out Historia Civilis.

I'm glad to hear the book is holding your interest! Do let me know if you have any thoughts or feedback. And thank you for your support.

That's pretty thematic and strong. Perhaps the angel represents the ideal you aspire while the demon contrasts by accepting/representing you for who you truly are (the darker aspects). perhaps a cool theme to play around with. Out of curiosity which baali book are you reading for curiosity sake ?

Actions in life would shape your own personal hell, which awaits you in death. Cunning demonologists could curate their hells intentionally, using rituals to draw power from them and summon their demon as a minion though it’s a double-edged sword, as you are empowering your own torment after death
comment in response to post
I've always liked the idea of demons existing in a symbiotic relationship or as reflections of mortals in the material world. I once envisioned a fantasy game featuring demonologist class, where staining your soul or committing dark acts would empower your personal demon.

Thank you for the high praise! The thought of our humble book earning a spot on someone’s bookcase is incredibly gratifying.

Very nice ! Kind of reminds me of Van Gogh with how the sky is done.

That’s what I love to hear! Don’t hesitate to share your ideas. And if you’re hungry for more "wild" ideas (pardon the pun) check out the free version of Clanbook Gangrel. www.storytellersvault.com/product/4751...

I like it! Definitely has a nomadic/feral vibe to it
comment in response to post
What dull request! It's like the old adage about teaching a man to fish: Give a Kindred a deal, and he'll corrupt only himself. Teach him the dark apostasy of the Baali, and he'll corrupt the world.

"We all have our opinions on who needs to go ...some more deserving than others (looking at you, Tremere). But let’s seize this chance to unite for a common cause: the removal of the Thin-Bloods. They want to be treated as a clan? Here’s their opportunity." Sincerely a concerned Ventrue
comment in response to post
I’ve always thought it’d be hilarious to set a VTM game in my tiny rural hometown....well more of a hamlet. Having powerful Kindred bickering over who controls the bakery or post office. All of them being exiled and laying low. Passing the time scheming over the pettiest stakes imaginable.

@varrishan.bsky.social made some great discipline cards perfect for any VtM player, and been enjoying her art. @viscountess1705.bsky.social did amazing drawings of the LA by Night cast, and I really like her aesthetic. @pc2000s.bsky.social I’m a sucker for early 2000s atmosphere and aesthetic.

Likewise and I swear I’m not just saying that because you’re an Antediluvian who could obliterate me in an instant.

Meanwhile the large nosferatu in the corner with his computer set up.

That might not be a bad idea. On the plus side, I find these abandoned projects are never a waste of time. They make building other things easier, and I can cannibalize some of my previous attempts or use them for inspiration.

Welcome back! It’s great to see some content for the Ravnos. I played one recently and had a lot of fun!

You are so right, this is exactly it, Junji Itou conjures what the mind’s eye should see. Also, you are doing GREAT work!! STV stuff like yours is as valid a resource as any official book.
comment in response to post
Junji Ito truly is a treasure trove of horrific imagery for any game. I’m still trying to find a way to contrive the hanging balloons. Thank you so much for the high praise. Tt’s greatly appreciated, especially coming from someone whose content I’ve watched for years.

"I am of Clan Ventrue, and you will address me with the respect I-wait, what?! Skating uphill? What does that even.." * head rolls from decapitation *

The concept art sort of reminds me of a Axolotl

You’re not a real TTRPG fan unless your Google Drive is a graveyard of half-finished projects, abandoned at 70% completion when you realized, “Oh wait, this doesn't work at all” and now they just sit there, silently judging you.

Did the father smell of elderberries ?

Really, Tremere?! It’s not enough to steal their blood—you have to steal their clanbook readers as well?

This is what I am imagining when I hear snail gangrel Now I am kicking myself for not including it in our hombrew Gangrel book.

You should do it ! The Baali bring unexpected twist and turns on the road to hell and have many power that can mess with even the most seasoned occultist. We love them so much we wrote a homebrew clanbook on them! We also got a 100 page free version. www.storytellersvault.com/product/5024...

The reanimated spell is the best spell in the game too.
