*Crawling from my grave.*

Tumblr/internet media discourse people just don’t like women/young girls.

To pull from our history text books.

- People hated Vriska, like actually hated her, just for kind of being a morally grey character.

- People hated Mabel Pines, FOR LITERALLY ACTING HER AGE. This one drives me crazy because people will reference all these times where she ruined something for Dipper, I’m like, yeah as a twin, that fucking happens sometimes and I don’t go around as an adult now saying “My twins a fucking asshole for this thing he did” WHEN WE WERE 12!!??

- I met a guy who hated Katara for literally just missing her mom. “She whines about it too much.” SHES FOURTEEN!??

- Also like Rey, (Star Wars isn’t that serious stop acting like her being op is new to that universe literally Anakin existed as a Jesus metaphor.)

- Most of our other big content was misogynistic from the get go anyway. I loved SuperWhoLock but that shit didn’t like women at all from the source.

Addendum; Yeah some of these characters weren’t written well, but that’s not what the discourse is about most of the time!

And before anyone says “consume media not made for 12 year olds challenge.”

Never, I have joy and whimsy, and like things.

"i want morally grey female characters" you fuckers could barely handle rose quartz

they're called draconian laws because they were instituted by a cute dragon girl with cute lil horns and a big cute tail and an unbelievably harsh sense of justice

[fungalwyrms]

the best trope in media is: “characters turn on the lights, see the monster, and immediately turn the lights back off”

tzimisce smart home but instead of a computer it's just people stuck in the walls talking to you and flipping light switches.

Vampires in 2020: *Shitting themselves because phones and CCTV are everywhere*

Vampires in 2025: My Prince, I know my childe slipped up and their Masquerade violation is now on Reddit, but I think you should let this one slide because half the commenters are saying it's staged or AI

[fungalwyrms]

Lets give some love to the transgender clans

Tzimisce Nosferatu and Gangrel

Camarilla players: This is my 10th generation Ventrue, he has Submerged Directive, 2 dots in Status, 3 dots in resources, and a ghoul to do all his tax evasion for him.

Sabbat players: This is my horrible murder lady, she likes murder.

[fungalwyrms]

“Eating vampires older than you corrupts your humanity” is a ludicrous deception spread by Big Camarilla so we don’t find out those wretched and tyrannical bastards are delicious meals with names and addresses

Darned if Dark Souls 2 didn't summarize American politics...

From @diableriedoll s post :)))

Vampire the Masquerade Questions for players/storytellers!

1.Are you a VtM player, storyteller, both or neither? If neither, how do you get your VtM fix?

-I ran my groups first game, and am now also a player! I got my fix by running it lol.

2. How and when did you get into VtM?

- I had a friend tell me he wanted to play a few years ago in college but we both knew nothing about the system, so I downloaded the V5 pdf.

3. Which edition do you play/ prefer?

-We play homebrewed V5 where we pull from old versions and add new stuff.

4. What's your favourite clan? Why?

- Tzimisce and Ravnos. The Dragons because I FUCKING LOVE NASTY BODY HORROR SHAPESHIFTER!!! Also a lot of the lore just fascinated me, especially the Different canon Tzimisce. Ravnos is definitely because the Bane and Compulsions are fun to me. I love when my characters have some kind of negative side effect. The no haven and needing to move every night is fun.

5. What's your least favourite clan? Why?

- Probably Torreador but it’s just because their Bane is kind of Boring. People can make some fun ideas with them I just find the bane kind of blasé.

6. Which clan haven't you played/ developed but would love to try?

- Banu Haqim, and Ministry.

7. What is your favourite discipline? Why?

- Vicissitude :3, I love you body horror.

8. Describe your worst Messy Critical and/ or Bestial Failure that you've played/ seen/ suffered.

- NA still as yet to happen

9. What's your favourite piece of VtM Media? eg. Games, books.. The TV series...

-….theres a tv series…. (My favorite media is the Tabletop game but also Bloodlines is fun)

10. What's been your favourite interaction throughout your VtM experiences? Can be in game, playing video games.. anything.

- inside bit but @ my friends “I lied” and Norn (tzimisce) Flesh Changing out of sight and everyone freaking out because all they could hear was flesh tearing. Only for that character, Norn, to become the biggest joke NPC (with love and hate.)

You and Your Characters

11. How many characters do you have?

- uhhhh 45 according to Pinterest. ((THERES MORE it’s 48)

12. Who was your first Character?

-First character I designed fully was a Nosferatu named Micheal who ran an underground Courier system in a city where Nos were mostly unaligned.

13. Do you have a comfort character? What makes them special to you?

- I have 3

Aodh (Ravnos) I had initially written him to die in my game but some character interactions with a player developed into a cute romance that means a lot to me and actually saved him in the game.

Killian (Nosferatu) Her story is just one I related to when I wrote it, religious trauma and things.

and Dr. Johann (Tzimisce) I made a sad old man who is everyone’s dad. Yes he’s a scary dragon but that’s besides the point.

14. Who is the (in character) oldest and the (in character) youngest? Would they like each other?

My oldest Vampire I made I think is Aura (Ravnos)

My Youngest is Killian (mentioned above)

Aura technically died when Killian was like a year old, but if they met in current somehow I think Killian would find Aura a bit Scary and Aura would probably think she was Camarilla.

15. Do any of your characters have a trait or flaw of your own? If so, what is it?

- Ha… most of them. Mostly

16. Do you have a character that was created from a dumb/ silly idea but now you can't imagine not having them?

-Oh absolutely. I think my first thoughts when I make any Tzimisce is usually a joke or half of one. Like Norn, Praying Mantis Joke turned Scary Flesh Monster.

17. You suddenly switch places with one of your characters, which one would you prefer to be?

-hmm… Eddie.. As a genderfluid I’d love to flesh change but also Scary goth girlfriend.

18. One of your characters takes your place, which one would you prefer to control of your life?

-OH GOD, Beck. I think he could manage my job and other stuff at my same level.

19. Which character is least spoken about? Speak about them now!

- hmmmmmmmm hard choice I yap a lot. Nuo is a super fun Brujah I made whose whole thing was being anal about how people communicated with the Anarchs in the game I was runnings city. She was mostly just a show off.

20. Is there something specific that influences you for your character creations?

- Other media, themes I like. Etc.

This or That

21. Tremere or Salubri?

- hard… hard, I made more Tremere but Salubri fun.

22. Ventrue or Lasombra?

- Lasombra

23. Banu Haqim or The Ministry?

- Banu Haqim

24. Caine or Lilith?

-HA… Lilith

25. Blood Sorcery or Thinblood Alchemy? 

- Honestly throwing a curve ball; neither, Koldunic Sorcery
