VTM Character Concepts I am Compelled to Share Because My Brain Won’t Stop

Hey all! I’m back in my VTM bullshit with more character concepts. Apologies if this is a bit more curt/shorter than usual; I’m cranking this out on my work break 😅. But anyway, here ya go! TW for Thalassophobia and implied animal death.

1. A Lasombra saturation diver. If you don’t know what that is, just know that it involves going to the very deepest and pitch dark parts of the ocean. Probably the closest to the abyss on earth. And for Cain’s sake PLEASE don’t look into the Byford Dolphin Accident (which will probably come up if you look up saturation diving) if you are squeamish!

2. A Banu Haquim erotic dancer who uses their unnatural grace to their advantage. The Toreador aren’t the only ones with celerity or sex appeal, and the club serves as a wonderful place to mete out justice to handsy assholes while gathering intel.

3. A Malkavian with synesthesia so intense it’s borderline overwhelming. Oddly enough, the colors, sights and sounds they receive actually tend to be useful as they hint at the true nature of things.

4. A guide of a ghost tour that is known for producing paranormal encounters. Of course, since the guide is a Hecata, ghostly happenings are par for the course.

5. A Gangrel pet groomer who’s had to skip multiple towns after feeding on Fido a LITTLE too enthusiastically.

Hope you enjoy!

Would the best advice for kindreds when facing an living opponent (like the werewolves, mages, or SI) be: “remember THEY need to breathe, WE don’t.” And just choke out their attacker as soon as possible?

So we all have head canons about the babyface prince with anger management issues rivalling a fledgling Brujah's. With recent Art on here (blaming @zeiinep and @skeltrr for their amazing art) my brain(rot) went into overdrive and made me post mine into the mix. So here have them and do whatever you want with them but they need to be out of my head.

This is mostly going to be addressing his relationship with his sire and leading up to his demise. Coming full circle from him nearly dying in Waterloo back to his final death while never really having left the warzone - or at least the mindset.

When his sire picked him up it wasn't with the intention of "raising a king". He was a soldier, a minor noble, and much more useful as an glorified errand boy.

So he got just enough knowledge to not embarrass his sire - being made to follow orders with a combination of a fledglings bloodbond, fear of recuperations and hope for just making it to any form of independent being within the camarilla if he just does what he was being told.

In between constantly fearing any kind of miss-step leading to him being killed and moving around the world he manages to accumulate a certain reputation - that of being a pet, a particularly silly Neonate not realizing his position.

He does realize it. But admitting it would just mean he could lay down to die. So he keeps lying to himself and hoping to get out. And at some point he gets the chance.

He either kills or at least has a hand in the killing of his Sire - and manages to do so without drawing too much suspicion. Having been the laughing stock of the community certainly has helped avoid an untimely death even if the century of barely hidden ridicule left quite a few scars.

So now he is free, right? Wrong. Of course nothing much changes. The direct control of his sire changes to just slightly less direct control by the camarilla. But he got at least enough freedom to build up a bit of a fortune for himself. He picks up Mercurio along the way. Yet he remains his only ghoul. His trust issues are just a bit too great to split his attention between several ghouls - much less trust a fledgling of his own making.

Its going reasonably well for a while. He never manages to gain the respect how thinks he deserves for how far he had made it regardless of the circumstances. But it hurts a lot less than it used to.

And of course that moment of near relaxation turn to shit within an instance. Someone somewhere decides to get rid of him by placing him in LA. He knows its not the gift they frame it as. He has no idea how to lead a city - they know it, he knows it. And the city is running rampant with Sabbat, Anarch's and Kuei-jin - the few Camarilla agents left are shrewd and in at least one case much older than him. He knows they'll not accept him as the new prince so he cannot even hope to have any kind of help from them either.

He knows this will be his downfall when he does - and he knows they'll find another way to get rid of him if he refuses. And there is still this hope that maybe, just maybe he can turn this around somehow.

We already know he does not manage it. Since his arrival things have gone from bad to worse rather quickly. He's felt the stress of not making any errors for near on two centuries.. and now Strauss helpfully mentions every little miss-step he makes like the good advisor he is and would be to any prince, no matter how young and inexperienced.

His time is running short, his temper even more so. He has to get this too work before the city tears either itself or him to shreds. And so he plans to use a group to get rid of another. His choice falls on the Kuei-jin if only because they are the most predictable in their expansion politic.

And then the cursed sarcophagus rolls around and Sébastien does not see it for the trap it is - to a drowning man even a venomous snake looks like a rope out of the water.

In short. Yeah he's a terrible little gremlin. But he's probably not as stupid as many make him out to be.

He's desperate to stay alive and in power and digs his own grave trying to get out of a death trap.

Cosplays of Pisha with white skin are fine cause you can’t so much change your skin tone. Drawings of white Pisha are like super wtf though. She dead yeah but she dead AN she dark :/

Animalism trait question

With the vampires that have the animalism trait.

Can they bind any animal to them? Can they bind as many as they want?

Say for example a flock of Canadian Geese. OR if they can with bugs, can they bind a nest of with the John Wick of hornets?

Also for the shape shifting, can they turn into ANY animal that they drink from completely?

A polar bear? Grizzly maybe? What about a killer whale?

This is part shit posting, part really been thinking about this for like months now.
