Guest Fishboot Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Somewhat off topic, but are there any resource books out there that give rules for playing 14th+ generation vampies in V:tM?
EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 I have updated the original post with a new link to the Anarch book, and some character/player info. I'm still waiting to hear back from players to see if Friday afternoons (GMT -6) will work for everyone.
213374U Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 (edited) Youre basicly stuck with your gen. Or are you? I'm still waiting to hear back from players to see if Friday afternoons (GMT -6) will work for everyone. [this part has been removed due to utter retardation on the author's part] Yes, that time frame will be fine. Edited July 29, 2005 by 213374U - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 Right now it looks like 10 players interested and I wasn't planning on more than 8, so I'm taking the first 8 who get my character sheets and can commit to the time frame. Tomorrow we can try to get together at 6:00 pm (GMT -6), but I don't expect all the players show up just yet, so we may only handle preludes and linking players together.
Cantousent Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Did we get a firm committment from the European crowd for getting a game set up there. I just hate to see anyone forced to miss the start of the campaign. Can we rotate or something? What did the European players decide?

EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 I won't really get too much into plot until we have a full group of players. I wasn't really planning to start tomorrow but some people have asked if we can get together tomorrow, and I'm not opposed to perhaps doing preludes and smaller scenes tomorrow. I might run a small encounter to get people familiar with the rules and such. I didn't hear anyone else offer to GM or start a second game for Europeans.

Why dont you choose enviroment(mIRC, shadowrun-thingie etc.) and let us know in good time how we'll go about finding you there. And no, there's no Euro game because we dont have a GM.

Baley Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Then it's 2 PM romanian time. I should be able to make it,I've already sent my character sheet and main background.
EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 Lets try irc.psionics.net and #vamprpg for a room since Archmonarch suggested that server.
213374U Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Then it's 2 PM romanian time. That's 2 AM Baley. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
Baley Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Oh I thought he said 6 AM. Does that mean it's toninght at 2 or tomorrow night?
213374U Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Yup. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 Basically, about 11 hours from now. Since that is so late for Europeans, we could try for 5 pm, which is 10 hours from now. I can't do it much earlier as I work graveyards, and I won't be up until the afternoon.
Baley Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 So it's tonight. Well I'll drink some coffee and I'm up for it.

Musopticon? Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 I'm not coming. Too many things to do, but you guys have fun. I try to finish the sheet for tomorrow and get to play next time we assemble! kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
Musopticon? Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 One more thing(these just keep coming, huh?): When I created the character I tried to make him someone who's nature wasn't defined by vampirism. He had a life, a rather rollercoastery and interesting life, before the embrace. My only experience with Vampire was the crpg Bloodlines released a while ago, but most who played that game made a character who became someone only because of embrace. "He's very strong and has a knack for the ladies, because he's a Ventrue!" Wanting to avoid that; I made a character who didn't think himself as a vampire. To himself, he's still very human, with human motives. Not driven by vampiric urges. And not very cool at all. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 I really like that approach. I wish more people focused on who they were before they became vampires.
thepixiesrock Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 My character was a private investigator who is on the search for the truth about things, conspiracies, aliens, supernatural stuff. After he turned into a vampire, he still is on the search for the truth. He travels all over the country in search of it. Since he found out about vampires and such, it just compells him more to search for the truth.

Kaftan Barlast Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 I really like that approach. I wish more people focused on who they were before they became vampires. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It all depends on where you start with your idea of the character- the concept. And that is all ruled by your imagination. I began picturing my char as a vampire already, and then her human past had to take a secondary part in the concept. Mus started in the other end, and so that is his primary idea. I dont think it works to start with the human in any other case than if you are playing someone relatively recently embraced.

EnderAndrew Posted July 29, 2005 Author Posted July 29, 2005 I think it is a good approach for new players. You are a bit more familiar with the setting and system.
GhostofAnakin Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 Since we're not starting the actual game tonight, I'll work on my background and portrait over the weekend. I could have had it done if needed, but I gotta head out for a bit. I'm about 50/50 on showing up today. btw, my time conversion sucks donkey balls. I'm in Ontario (EST), so what exact time are the sessions set for on fridays?

Kaftan Barlast Posted July 29, 2005 Posted July 29, 2005 I am under the impression that Mr Ender is also on EST which means 1700 for you aswell. The intraweb says its 13:54 in Omaha right now. And Im 7 hour ahead so that would be correct.
