I don't think the Romanos are gonna show up anytime soon. Even if someone from the family who wasn't at the ball figures out the Masquerade breach and put a target on Vic and Cornellius, it would be such a stretch. Word on the Street is powerful and all but not that strong to connect the Ball disaster to a bunch of hunters from a small town and then to the brothers.

So, possible conspiracies in play:

>Pentex (and werewolves hunting the Wyrm, possibly from the forests nearby)
>True Fae (and that hunter Changeling)
>Scout's family that makes pacts with spirits
>A family of royal-level Malkavians
>Whatever else they piss off
Looking neat.

Campaign is probably too short to bring them back into besides maybe the last episode

[Anonymous No.]

It’s pretty clear Mori won’t kill anyone for most of the campaign but I could easily see her killing characters off in the finale. Gives her a lot more latitude to bring in some heavy hitters and let the crossfire take some of them out. She’s laid the groundwork for almost anything including vampires of various types, werewolves, Changlings/Fae, Wyrm related foes, pretty much anything. Bets on what Mori has planned for the finale? I’m guessing brohood ropes the crew into a multi party battle royale, Wyrm related final boss. Vampires hate them but end up in an uneasy peace.

For what I gather the seasons are just points where people who want to leave can leave. It's possible season one ends with the mystery just starting to open up.

Here's the summary of the third session that I typed up as I followed along. Did I miss anything important?

Session 3
>The bus is stopped by a man on the road, he gets on and it turns out to be Vic
>A man sitting in front of them had introduced himself as Cornelius, which he reveals that Vic is his brother
>Vic hands them each an envelope of money, which only happens to be $50
>They go to a formal dress store and buy something for the party, Tiara convinces the clerk to sell an expensive dress for $50 by claiming she'll tell the party and get more business
>Tiara's dress nets her +2 to all social rolls at the party, the others gain nothing from their discount clothing
>Cornelius reveals that the Romano family in the manor had sabotaged their family business which caused their father's health to decline up until his death, so this is an act of revenge
>He wants them into the party to access the master bedroom's ledger or find some kind of evidence that will ruin them, as he suspects they will definitely find something bad
>They stash all of their big weapons with Cornelius before he leaves off and they head in
>Tiara goes to socialize with the guests while Watoto and Scout tag along
>Yuul goes off to eavesdrop, but immediately is mistaken for a waiter and gets handed a tray of drinks to distribute
>Scout spikes a glass of champagne with some laxatives she received from Vic
>Tiara spots the twins of the family (Dominic and Daisy) and asks Cornelius for some info, where he reveals that they're debaucherous and wild
>Scout attempts to convince Dominic to drink from her spiked glass, but instead he saves it aside for later
>The twins offer some shots to the crowd around them, and Tiara gives hers to Watoto instead
>Scout gets her spiked champagne back and drops it into the punch bowl
>When Yuul has a moment, she is able to notice that the lights have turned a bit red and some guests are beginning to pass out and being carried off by the wait staff
>A waiter tells her that they need some booze in a secret room downstairs
>Once the guests start thinning out, Tiara suggests to Dominic they should go to his room, where he also invites Daisy and Watoto along
>Scout tries to talk to the head chef about what's for dinner, but is ignored, so Yuul attempts to distract the chefs by talking in Italian but are highly offended
>While the commotion is going on, Scout drops a laxative in the lasagna's sauce before they're kicked out

Tiara & Watoto
>Tiara and Watoto go up to the master bedroom and see the twins, along with two in the room cleaning something up in the back, dressed in black hooded robes
>The walls are adorned with medieval weaponry, some stained with blood
>The scene causes Watoto to lose control and go feral, trying to scratch himself and Tiara
>Tiara calms him down with her animal ken as they're lead by the wrists towards the bed
>She notices a man in the back as the father (Antonio), cleaning blood from his face telling his children not to make a mess before he leaves the room
>Before Dominic can try anything, Watoto vomits as a distraction to give Tiara the opportunity to call in Uhu, but it just hits the closed window
>Once the twins realize what's going on, Daisy mentally dominates Tiara and they begin to tie her to the bed
>Watoto draws his sound gun and fires, but misses, drawing their attention towards him instead
>The twins draw knives and choose a target, Dominic moves towards the helpless Tiara and Daisy towards Watoto
>Finally, Tiara snaps out of the domination and calls in Uhu to undo her ropes, drawing her revolver and firing a few rounds into Dominic's crotch
>Watoto grabs a flail off the wall and tries to help out Tiara, but is pushed back by Daisy
>While Dominic is stunned, Tiara takes the opportunity to rifle through the desk for the ledger, but is unsuccessful
>Watoto is sliced by Daisy's knife, taking 2 lethal damage
>Tiara takes another few shots, hitting Dominic in the eye, dropping him to the floor, blinded
>Daisy stops attacking and rushes to her brother's aid, commanding them to get out and swearing revenge
>Watoto finds the ledger, hands it to Uhu and it flies away

>>10280181
Yuul & Scout
>Yuul and Scout access the secret room behind a painting, and find a sketchy underground VIP lounge where there are cages with people inside being auctioned off
>Yuul meets Antonio, where he feeds on a waiter and drops him on the floor, inviting her to sit for a moment and talk
>Antonio recognizes that Yuul isn't a waiter and there's something fishy going on, so he offers to play a card game with her
>If he wins the game, Yuul will be put in a cage and join the auction, but if Yuul wins then he'll let them all leave
>At the same time, Scout sneaks off to a corner and spills her flammable punch onto some curtains and then crafts a slingshot out of her panties, preparing to start a fire if things go south
>At the final draw of the game, Antonio offers to up their wagers, if he wins he gets to take all of her friends, but if she wins then she can take something home from the manor
>Yuul accepts the offer and draws their final card, winning the game and leaving the lounge

Together
>Scout and Yuul link back up with Tiara and Watoto outside the master bedroom, discovering the chaotic scene that had unfolded
>As they all headed towards the exit, Antonio asks what item they chose, but they lie and say basically nothing
>Vic is left behind at the party, not realizing that everyone had left
>In the taxi, Cornelius congratulates them on a job well done, discovering that their charity ball was just a scam for them to siphon money from
>The next morning's newspaper details how the charity ball ruined the Romano family's reputation with a bad case of food poisoning among the guests

>Mori pulls out all the stops for the finale session
>Admits straight up warns everyone they're not expected to survive because that's how things tend to go for Hunters
>All their enemies show up and a massive chaotic battle breaks out
>By some string of stupid luck and ridiculous RNG, everyone somehow survives (albeit some on the brink of death)
>at some point or another Scout manages to one-shot the hook with a roll of perfect tens all the way down with her pick-axe
>Tiara saves Watoto using special bullets with mushroom gunpowder
>Yuul does death donuts in the van to protect the group, somehow surviving the inevitable crash.

Good Question: if players were given the opportunity to leave, who will?

>Ame: She barely gets roleplay
>Ina: wet towel to begin with, leaves because 'scary, muh heart'
>
>Gura: more likely she will stay, but Mori's imagination is starting to scare her...

>Kiara is in this one until it ends.....

[Anonymous No.]

>>10286738
Ame would leave and give the excuse that she wants to give someone in Council a chance to play.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10286738
Given the opportunity? Only when season 1 ends and the characters get their plots solved, and even then it's not gonna happen because:
>Ame
She wouldn't want to see herself left out while the rest has fun rolling dice, her and Watoto's absense is going to feel like a gigantic hole on the screen regardless if the others or the audience understand if she doesn't want to be in for season 2 on her own volition. I don't agree with the barely getting roleplay, since Watoto helped when it was needed and has his moments to be a goof as well, she just needs to get a better grip on the flow of how players and GM bounce off each other.
>Ina
Too much of a doormat to outright say she wants to leave, she'll stay until the very end, specially since she mentioned in her debut she wanted to try GMing CoC and I could see her using this to build practical experience. (Even if I feel it's something she just put up on the debut card-thingie because her character is an eldritch being, so she had to put that there). I'm sure her and Ame are set on not ending up like Squidward looking at Patrick and Spongebob having fun to their fans.
>Gura
Having a whole lot of fun being a brick-headed hick flipping the middle finger to whatever wants to suck her soul
>Kiara
So adamant in staying and playing, I wouldn't doubt that she'd build a new character in minutes if Tiara bites it halfway

An interesting way of handling that is when the Council hop in, and Mori can set up an easy Monster of the Week plotline where the characters can hop in or out, allowing players to tag and keep a manageable number for Mori to GM comfortably (because 4 players is honestly a nice sweet amount, personally).

[Anonymous No.]

>>10291241
You know what, now when I remember that Watoto has a timebomb attached to his soul, it's honestly a great way to send him off and have Ame either jump out of the ship or make a character that suits her (and the Chronicle) better.

better question is: who of the new debuts is likely to want to join in for season 2?

[Anonymous No.]

Regarding the twins Dominic and Daisy, was Mori alluding to them having an incest relationship, or was she trying not to reveal their torturous feeding habits?
Because my dick got hard as fuck whenever they were in focus.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10305497
She was 100% leading the audience to suspect incest. Whether they canonically ARE or not is another question because in-universe it might just be a ruse to lire victims but the implication was that Tiara and Watoto were being invited to have a four-way with the two of them.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10305497
It's also well worth noting there might not actually be twins at all. Vampires tend to affect all sorts of traits, and with the large family focus lots of clans and coteries have it's not out of the question for them to play the part of twins at all. Vampires don't continue lineages through birth, but through embrace. The childer of the head Romano won't be linked by blood but by the Blood.

Man, this kills me. There's absolutely no reason why this shouldn't have been scheduled as weekly.
There would have already been several two week breaks anyways because of how busy the end of the summer has been with all the events and vacations everyone needed to do. The only thing it's done is delay the campaign for a month at a time because they're far too rigid to move a missed stream to the next week, instead choosing to pointlessly delay it for yet another week so that it stays on the 2 week pattern.
Just think about how we could have been watching session 6 or 7 last time.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10307355
Maybe Mori asked for one session every 2 weeks to make the TTRPG stream like less of a commitment for her genmates.
It would have been hard for one of them to refuse and be the odd one out that all the viewers want to finally see joining, so they had pressure on them to accept, which Mori would want to accomodate.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10307584
The other thing she cited was that full gen collabs are so difficult to set up. The most often they have ever happened was weekly, so she didn't want to monopolize them with a weekly TTRPG and give others a chance to organize their own.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10305229
I'm not sure if she's especially eager, but if they asked Mumei she would probably accept.

One day the Wyrm will be relevant for the story again...one day...

[Anonymous No.]

>>10309554
I don't think we should be sure of too much more material from the tutorials returning. Anything that only featured in one of them would inherently favour the character in question and leave the others behind a bit; and at this point the tutorials happened so long ago that the players themselves might not think about them much anymore.
That said, it's definitely not out of the question that some tutorial characters, concepts etc become relevant again.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10310689
I feel like Gura's sticks with her though. Scout seems pretty heavily scarred from what's happened compared to everyone else's tutorial manifesting as fears. That said, would almost be interesting if after the season we basically got sort of an 'epilogue' solo session for each character/their next of kin.

>>10309346
Mumei is cute, but I'm really not sure she'd have the memory for a TTRPG.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10310689
I'm thinking the exact opposite.
The amount of importance placed on Tiara's pendant in her tutorial was way too much just to be forgotten about. From the very beginning it sounded like Mori is planning the endgame to revolve around this plot device. The same goes for Scout's parents, the chemical plant coporation, and the professor. She left these large plot threads open for a reason.
Besides, having personal connections form between the party is always a good thing for roleplay. Each of the characters offering their help to uncover their friend's mystery lets them bond as a group, rather than just coworkers.

She definitely enjoys it, but she was particularly hard on herself after the first 2 sessions for a variety of reason but pleased with herself after the most recent.
However she also talked recently about trying to get her sleep schedule in order and that includes trying to avoid streams starting after midnight for her.
Currently I'd say it's a tossup whether she'll continue after the first finale

[Anonymous No.]

>>10317773
If Kiara wants to sleep earlier, they could try streaming in the morning her time. It'd mean the NAs would be streaming in the (late) evening unless Kiara gets up pretty early, but for Mori it'd be afternoon.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10317959
I mean Kiara seems to avoid early streams like the plague, she already did that back when she was still in Japan.
The bigger problem is that after a session like Episode 3 that ends at ~3:30am you're not able to fall asleep fast.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10318079
I mean, it's understandable if she doesn't want to stream at night or in the morning, but there have to be exceptions for collabs, events etc. It's the sad fate of being in a timezone far from the others, and if she likes playing with Mori she's likely to stick the timezone issues out.

The pendant is PROBABLY related to the Ascending Ones, a powerful hunter conspiracy.

>They specialize in brewing potions that grant supernatural powers, just like Madame M.

It takes 5 minutes max to find royalty free music (which Calli gets sent to her by fans so she just has to plug in and go) and throw an image on the Roll20 Map. She isn't even using Roll20 properly, yet even then we're maybe talking 10 minutes tops per session if you're not a brainlet. But this is Calli we're talking about.

>>10323960
NTA, I agree with most of their points but disagree on their conclusion. Calli isn't a perfect GM but she's far from a bad one and that anon has some strange ideas of what universally good GMing looks like. Like the quantum ogre shit can be exceptionally obnoxious, especially in the scenarios we saw last session.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10323888
For what she's actually showing on screen? Nothing really. No set pieces/maps means no tokens. No tokens generally means no character sheet (PC or NPC), but having sheets speeds things up considerably. Where her "prep time" is being spent is on the railroaded story.

>>10323959
Clearly you're unaware of how many royalty free sites are out there. Unless you're sitting down and listening through each and every track they possess, you can very rapidly find appropriate music for your game. And even if you do have OCD and need to make sure every second of the music is good, then you only need to do so once. It doesn't take 2+ hours each week for audio.

>>10323960
I would simply highlight what they said about Roll20 and deus ex machina moments. If you overuse the latter then the players will start to feel like gods and never worry about consequences. Or what happens is you truly take the kid gloves off and then they bitch and moan when they start to get injured/hurt/etc.

The only thing that I hard agree on is that Mori requires way too many meaningless rolls for mundane tasks.

>No set pieces/maps means no tokens
WoD doesn't generally do maps, it's theatre of the mind.
>No tokens generally means no character sheet (PC or NPC),
Wrong you're going from your DnD experience. Mori most definitely has character sheets for the NPCs, even if simplified. Otherwise she would take way longer to make up how many dice they are rolling to contest the party. Compare the twins to the owl that doesn't have one in that regard.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10324164
Anon, you can't spend just 5 minutes finding music if you need to fill 3 hours full of music. You're a moron. Judging by the rest of that I'm kind of not even sure why you've stuck watching it this long.

A very astute observation totally not missing the point at all. Very worth the reply.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10324282
I'm fully aware that WoD goes for Theater of the Mind. My point was she's not having to spend time on putting battlemaps in or make art for tokens. As for character sheets, if she's doing full character sheets for NPCs then that's on her wasting the time/effort. All you really need for NPCs in a basic dice pool number and notes about any special rules they have. Detailing each and every stat for a given NPC is a pitfall many new to middling GMs make.

Obvious railroads are objectively shit. It's a crutch that newer GMs rely on because they only know how to prepare for a single set of circumstances/progression from linear point to linear point. If you're telling the players "you must go here" or "you must get this now" then you're doing it wrong.

The whole principle behind quantum ogres is that you are railroading, but in a way that allows for player agency and doesn't bind the players to your single railroad track.

Damn, did I miss the comment asking you to be a cunt too? Also you're an actual nogame for that quantum ogre take. It's 100% just a railroad you dipshit, it's the illusion of choice and nothing more. There is no choice, their is no agency, the outcome is the same no matter what you do. That's the entire purpose of it. How on Earth do you have 4 games and not know that? Oh wait...

>As for character sheets, if she's doing full character sheets for NPCs then that's on her wasting the time/effort. All you really need for NPCs in a basic dice pool number and notes about any special rules they have
I won't disagree that Mori clearly isn't a very experienced GM, I remember she herself saying that and commenting on her own rustyness especially after the first Tiara tutorial.
But for me personally making character sheets in WoD, especially the Attributes and Skills, really helps solidifying character traits for my characters. Obviously only major characters, but for the example of this session I expect that the entire "main family" were statted out characters with a firm personality in mind, while the filler characters were thought up on the fly.

>t. brainlet nogames
You clearly are unable to stop sucking cocks long enough to put that half-a-brain-cell to work. Quantum ogres is quite literally meant for agency and choices. Unless the players fuck off entirely and ignore every single plot hook (See: Critical Role S2) then everything you've ever prepped can be inserted and retooled at any given moment to suit your needs. Unless you're literally telling the players you're quantuming them, they will not know that you're reusing a monster/NPC stat block or moving an item/NPC from one place to another.

But you're a nogames who's crying on /vt/, so clearly I'm wasting my time trying to explain it.

It would be dumbed down tremendously and be very railroady and honestly I wouldn’t do it because it would be stressful as hell tard wrangling them all. Like these girls can’t drift in Mario kart, navigating a vampire ball in character is asking a lot of them.

Now you're just moving the goalposts. It's an illusion of choice whether a player knows it or not. That's inarguable. It does not grant players any agency because the GM made their choice for them. Equally inarguable. It's also not the point at all because the illusion is fragile and when it breaks it taints the entire game if it bothers a player. In a situations like "find the book in the big house" that illusion is paper thing. If they keep failing and you just shove that book wherever they land it's painfully obvious it was just wherever in the first place. It's a terrible place to use quantum ogres, which already suck, because you've got infinite space to do anything else. You can provide back up upon back up and never have to railroad anyone.

Can someone explain why you guys think Mori spends a lot of time preparing for each session?
There's one guy that argues she doesn't because she only needs some character sheets for NPCs, google some scene images, and implement music that's given to you via fans. No one seems to be able to argue otherwise.
I'm new to TTRPG so I don't know what kind of work goes into being a DM, especially when it seems that all you need is some scenarios, characters, and a visual aid.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10325565

[Anonymous No.]

>>10325806
She spends a few hours each session at least and she's talked about all of this on one stream after all the intros. That's not including artwork she draws on other streams. Other anon seems to think GM prep is just like pictures and music. Other anon was raised on a diet of bleach and lead paint chips which gave him a superiority complex and a hate bone. Basically just take all of last session and break it up into individual scenes, and characters. Depending exactly how she works she's plan out a rough beat for beat storyline and then fill in scenes around that. The beat for beat stuff can be 10-30 mins work depending on session length or complexity. When you've got you can add the scenes to go along with those beats, the characters in them, general things that will happen, rough ideas of where that will lead. For any given scene you can bet there is likely another 1/3 - 1/2 of a scene which you didn't get to see. So if you say 10 scenes there were likely 3-5 more you didn't see which were planned. Had the characters gone outside you would have seen different stuff, and there was likely another way the card game could have gone or something else to happen in its place. Obviously you need the characters too so any with dialogue took 5-20 minutes to realise, assuming a singular appearance. If they're recurring and have bigger roles to play down the line more work likely went into them. You need to know who they are, how they relate to everything relevant to the scene, what they look like, how they talk, a rough idea of their stats and abilities assuming a fairly big role, and then you have to think about what they're doing and what they'll say. Music takes basically as long as you have time to fill, and as long as you have scenes that require music. It's not a crazy amount of work, and you can make do with less depending on the game and its style, but it's not no work by any means.

Ehhh. I get where you're coming from but that's not really the same thing. Kiara and Calli not working together to RP that situation to its fullest potential isn't because of training wheels. It's just because they're new. A Persistent Condition is nothing to sneeze at. That's a pretty fucking rough penalty. We don't know exactly what it does but it could easily result in a death. Unironically. The only thing in that fight that went in the "training wheels" direction was the break from Frenzy, but that might just be Calli not knowing how Frenzy works/homebrewing it. RAW would have basically the opposite happening. Loved ones getting hurt is a big Frenzy trigger regardless of ruleset.

>>10324090
to be honest, that entire post could be dismissed on the basis of the point 'always late/delaying shit' already, since majority of the sessions outside of Kiara/Ina and recent one started on time (no, anon being autistic about length of a loading screen isn't a delay, Mori often waits for people to start being moved from waiting room to watching)
the first two were related to dealing with streaming on other channel, which didn't cooperate consistently with the application Mori used due to updates and the last one was caused by issues with Cover tracking app which is currently affecting multiple EN and JPs, so he's talking shit without even attempting to educate himself/assumes the girls are lying

actually, most of the points outside of those related to rolling/skillchecks/system awareness are objectively wrong and only pass if you assume Mori/other girls lied about stuff like preptime or time involved in their non-TTRPG work; stuff like 'can't handle the party splitting' is just outright wrong if you watch the streams where she narrated and transitioned between separate scenes at fairly fitting and interesting points

Calli is using oWoD lore for her vampires. But it's in nWoD too, and CofD if you're using False Gods: Ventrue (which I kinda think you should be). Malks have a bit of a strange place in VtR though. VtR1e had a stupid amount of "We have to do X because of VtM" in it. So in the core book you have a Venture Bloodline called the Malkovians. They were the "crazy" Bloodline and filled a similar narrative niche, but they have Auspex, Dominate, Obfuscate, Resilience as their in-Bloodline Disciplines. When the Venture Clanbook, Lords Over The Damned, came out it brought with it a whole new take on Malks. In that book there is Malkavia which is a mystical degenerative disease that can effect vampires and causes them to go mad, but they did also get access to Dementation. It wasn't restricted to just Ventrue either and you could also spread the disease if you were afflicted with it. It's generally a way cooler take on them IMO as it makes the whole thing more horrific. False Gods: Venture is a third party release, written by a chunk of the official writers, that serves to update 1e Ventrue stuff and add some new bits, both a 2e version of Malkavia is in their and a 2e version of Malkovians as well. There is a new version of Dementation there too, although it's a different take than 1e's because 1e's is very easy to update. All three versions of it are pretty different too.


>>10327514
Well, yeah, but it wasn't Dominate and Delirium is a Woof thing. With them being Malks, and it obviously being a madness based power, I think it's pretty obviously meant to be Dementation. Especially given that the initial effect on Watoto was pretty clearly Voice of Madness, even if what afflicted Tiara was just vague mind magics

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who picked up on this.

She then assures him everything will be alright...and then kisses him...in a way you've never seen a brother and sister kiss."

She had less perception rolls the previous session, and even said she'd be doing more with fewer perceptions.

On the side, I wanted to thank whoever delivered the item sheet to the ladies before the session. It wasn't the one I made, as several names and pieces were missing, but I'm still immensely thankful someone else made the effort to aid them a little without being accused of shamelessly backseating.

I didn't have to engage with the dickhead up thread but when their sniffing their own farts and acting like they're the only standard that matters its worth it to point it out. It's not like we have to scroll up many posts here to see a /vt/ regular being a fuckhead either. It's a site-wide thing, it just looks different on some boards. It's all besides the point though. Public groups run the risk of not being fun and you should 100% run games with people you know. Not even IRL friends just acquaintances online can be great. I've made RPG groups from a couple of other communities and they works wonders, if you can have a conversation with a group of people and have fun, and those people might like or do like RPGs, then that's a good group to go with.

Generals are pretty much required though. It's post consolidation. Anything that gets popular enough to warrant a general tends to be one of two things. Firstly it's something that gets just 100 threads a day without the general keeping it down, or secondly it's something that gets enough discussion to consistently hit bump limits but isn't so popular that random threads about it do. So the former is vital in letting other things be discussed or else the board just has little else on it, and the latter is good because small things don't facilitate random discussion well without a steady presence. You wipe the slate clean and they'll just come back.

She's also gotten into shouting matches on twitter when someone points out what she's saying is hypocritical or says anything remotely bad about Calli.

Had me some questions and ideas planned for the next thread, but I'll post them here to stimulate discussion.

-First thing's first, will Dominique be able to fully recover from the wounds Tiara gave him? I'm guessing yes, but how easily can a vampire recover from having a chunk of his head turned into hamburger meat?
-Scout's backup fire plan. As informed by a helpful anon several threads back, fire is one of the best weapons against vampires, causing aggravated damage and sending them into an uncontrollable frenzy. Let's say Scout set the whole VIP lounge alight, how frightened are vampires of fire? Do they avoid it at all costs, or would they brave it to try and kill the party? Also, do you think Gura maybe knew about their weakness? She claimed to have read up a lot while drafting her final character (it took her about a week), so mayhap she did some deep diving into the lore.
-Seeing the concentrated effort by Cornelius and Vic to take down the Romanos, how infighty are vamps? Do they scuffle amongst one another as badly as humans do?

This idea picked up some interest in a previous thread (and elsewhere), but how would you anons like to see the party do an hour or so-ish debrief stream? Just a shorter, laid back intermission session where the party returns to HQ and comes to grips with what the hell they just went through. Amidst spending their experience for the viewers to see (and maybe elaborating on the justification), Yuul could put her mental skills to work doing some research, Watoto could cultivate some helpful greenery, and Tiara and Scout could shop around for a replacement company car or something. i think a mini-session like this would work wonders; the girls could just shoot the shit, chat OOC more than usual, ask questions if needed, and complete their pre-mission prepwork without having to try and cram it into another 3-4 hour stream. Also Calli wouldn't have to do any excessive prep for it, as it would be pretty laid back.

Give it enough time/blood and they can more or less come back from even the worst injuries.

Frenzy is not just a word used for flavor. If they fail their frenzy test, they go full animalistic "FUCK NOPE IM OUT" mode.
>how infighty are vamps?
Take /vt/ (or any fandom) and ramp it up one billion times. That's less than 1/1000th of how petty and drama-filled vampire society is.
>how would you anons like to see the party do an hour or so-ish debrief stream?

A debrief or epilogue to their session would be a very nice addition. Another thing that I wanted at the end of the stream was a more in depth chat about their session. It wraps up so quickly that I'm sure that Mori and the others have lots of things they want to get off their chest about what happened, now that it's not going to interfere with the roleplay.
Just little things like "I really didn't expect you guys to go here" or "What would you have done if this roll succeeded/failed?".

They all confirmed at some point that they did this after their tutorial streams (Gura said she and Calli went on about it like giddy schoolgirls regarding their session alone). The community would love to see more of the backstage / post-session stuff from the girls. Realistically, it's very hard to commit another hour to a postgame show after performing for so long, particularly for Calli, who gets up early to prep, and Kiara, who didn't get to go bedsy bye until 3:30am Euroslurp time.

If generals aren't fun for you then they're doing you a favour in getting rid of a glut of game specific threads that you wouldn't enjoy. There are like 65-75 threads on that board right now that aren't generals, game specific, art threads, or fetish bait. So, like I said, you're focusing on the wrong things. We can all take a trip to /vt/'s catalogue and pick out the awful shit too. Just the way boards are.

Some of this stuff depends on the exact vampire in question and also the game you're playing. I'm just going to talk about it in VtR2e terms because a lot of the VtM details don't translate over super well and I'd hope Calli is just using the rules available rather than homebrewing something for the same result.

>Will Dominique be able to fully recover from the wounds Tiara gave him?
Yes. There is very little a vampire can't bounce back from, so long as they haven't met the Final Death yet then they won't die without outside intervention regardless of their wounds. It's only really total destruction of the heart and removal of the head that they can't recover from.

>How easily can a vampire recover from having a chunk of his head turned into hamburger meat?
If they have access to as much Vitae as their wounds require they can heal back to full with 1 day's rest for all Bashing/Lethal, and then one day per Aggravated. Dominic didn't take any Aggravated damage that encounter, or would have fallen into Torpor, and they probably looked something like this;
>[X] [X] [X] [X] [X] [ /] [ /] [ /]
Vampires heal at 2 Bashing/1 Lethal per Vitae which would have meant 7 Vitae needed to be spent to fully recover from their wounds. It was the lethal damage that caused the Tilt that messed with their vision, so when all the damage from that attack is gone they'll have their eye back. 7 isn't a massive amount all in all, especially for the childer of a Prince. They'll have easy access to blood.

>How frightened are vampires of fire?
Deathly. It's one of the three great banes, the stuff you pull out when you need a vampire dead. A whole host of things provoke Frenzy in a vampire, but it's broadly about anger, danger, or hunger. If you light a torch and swing it in a vampires face that's likely to provoke Frenzy, and Frenzy from small fires like that are as hard to resist as it coming from the death of a friend. So they really don't like fire, and in VtM they even have a word for how badly it effects them, Rötschreck or the Red Fear.

>Do they avoid it at all costs, or would they brave it to try and kill the party?
It depends on the situation. Frenzy is the Beast taking control. The Beast is the predatory aspect that makes a vampire a vampire, it drives them to hunt, to kill, to flee, and when it takes over it's because it wants something. When you Frenzy the Beast has a goal in mind and it pursues that goal with single-mindedness and destructive abandon. The provocation is what you use to ick a goal. So if it was causes by seeing the house catch fire that desire is "get the fuck away from all that fire", but if someone saw Scout light the fire and their rage provoked a Frenzy then the Beast might just want bloody vengeance. A Frenzying vampire basically doesn't stop until the Beast gets what it wants or they enter Torpor. Vampires can also "Ride the Wave" it can take a lot of Willpower and good rolls to do it but they can take the Beast by the reins and point it where they want it, you can pick any goal you wish. The vampire of the second example might want to attempt to ride the wave in order to flee rather than charge into some flames. It's also possible to resist Frenzy, although doing so usually means you're more likely to Frenzy later on, and you can spend Willpower to delay the Frenzy for a turn too.

>Also, do you think Gura maybe knew about their weakness?
Maaaaaybe. It's hard to say, fire is a pretty big weakness of most monsters so it's something they could just "know" in the same way they know vampires don't like the sun.

>How infighty are vamps? Do they scuffle amongst one another as badly as humans do?
Vampire is a game of scheming and politics, the entire setting is pretty much built on foundations of infighting and strained alliances. All out war isn't unheard of, although typically done in the shadows, but every faction has its methods. Hard to say what's going in with it in the girls' game because we don't have a lot of information to work from.

One more at most. Watoto has the divine (insidious?) protection of the Wyrm, and managed to fight off enough mental attacks from the twins. Scout has the intelligence of an alligator, so...yea. Yuul seeing Antonio drain that poor bastard right before her was pretty frightening, but should it have incurred a breaking point / morality check? It's pretty gray area to me, honestly.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10380064
I think it may have triggered Yuul's, it was the first time seeing someone die and drained by a vampire, it is pretty twisted.

[Anonymous No.]

So, was Antonio's shock at losing because he thought it was literally impossible? He's a Malk and Malks have the gift of prophecy, so did Yuul essentially defy foresight when she won?

[Anonymous No.]

>>10380784
Antonio wants Yuul's virgin ass so badly. He let her win so they could "meet up by happenstance" again at some point, whereupon he'll try to turn her to his side. He's playing the long game to get his girl. Don't vamps have some unique abilities if they get turned when virgins? Or am I thinking of another setting?

Seriously though, is the Malk gift absolute, or is it one of those wishy washy prophecy powers where it can be easily misinterpreted by one who is overconfident in his abilities?

>During the Dark Ages, the Malkavian Orders of Mystery, also known as Ordos, tried to channel the gift of prophecy to mimic the Methuselah-Oracles of Antiquity, but with the formation of the sects and the severing of Dementation, their practice fell out of use.

The way Malkavians work is that they have a psychic connection to this thing called Madness Network. Now imagine that you can receive messages of future or past through any way possible including screens, outdoors, voices coming out of objects and many such situations, but you can't it turn it on or off because someone else does it.
It's that typical "I don't know what this vision means, but I know it's gonna be a bad time when it happens." Did Antonio see something regarding Yuul? Mori could write it like that later.

[Anonymous No.]

>>10383022
To correct myself, Antonio could be written as seeing something important regarding Yuul later, not in the card game itself. Maybe a vision told him about a mortal who used a vampire to beat another while God watched (I forgot what was the winning draw for Yuul), who will do something specially exceptional. Except in an even more cryptic way.

Malks aren't really prophetic, at least not until you get way into the high power levels (A lot of it is Auspex based, so open to lots of vamps. V5 also dramatically lowered the dots needed for premonitions), what they are is connected. The Madness Network connects all the Malks together and Malks know a lot of things, with a bit of effort you can send a message to other Malks and elders can ask the Network questions and its likely someone will have some idea of what you want. Malks are also nuts and vampires are also exceptionally arrogant, especially when dealing with the kine, so even if there wasn't anything prophetic going on he might just think that anyway.

>>10381139
>Don't vamps have some unique abilities if they get turned when virgins? Or am I thinking of another setting?
You're thinking of a different setting.

>Seriously though, is the Malk gift absolute, or is it one of those wishy washy prophecy powers where it can be easily misinterpreted by one who is overconfident in his abilities?
Very little is absolute, but Malkavians aren't seeing strange visions or cryptic prophecies, even if they'd like you to think so. The exact veracity of the information they have largely depends on the method their acquired it. Malkavian Time is pretty much down to whatever the individual Malk wanted to broadcast. They could do any message and you'd be able to receive it, so they could just lie about whatever. Sybil's Tongue is pretty much a sure fire thing so long as someone on the Network actually knows what you want to know.
