WoD: The Butcher, The Baker, The Candlestick Maker

 Pages 1 2 NEXT
 

Hello, welcome to the thread, to clarify, this is a World of Darkness Rp, I know there's another one around here somewhere, but that's taking place in a completely different locale, edition, world, etc. I'll be using what I've always played with(and know infinitely much more about), which is the Old World. I'm looking for around ten players, spread as evenly as possible across the three factions I'm opening up for you. This is an old story I ran years ago, so any relation to the other campaign is purely coincidental, his just reminded me of my own.

TO ALL: I encourage shared backstories, as the ones picked will all know each other, Mages will know the other mages, vampires will all know the other vampires, but not necessarily ones outside their Cabal, Coven, Pack, etc.

If you see someone you'd like to team up with(mages with mages, weres with weres, vamps with vamps) then pm them and ask if they wanna do the shared backstory thing, and take it from there and then send your thing my way with the character names in it.

I will try to get back to you if I find something wrong or off with it.

saved for characters

I am currently stuck at a hotel, but sometime monday you will see a sheet from me. Most likely vampire.

If anyone wants to do a shared background with me, just let me know.

Last Edit: 1:40 PM Sunday, July 15, 2012

welcome one and all, you want in, just make a sheet, I'll tell you how horribly wrong it is, and then change it to suit my stupid story

I WAS going to make a Vampire, then everyone made a Vampire and it stopped being cool. Hmph. I will be a necromancer then and call sour grapes on the whole deal! Consider my jimmies unrustled.

Edit: Apparently, magi just suck and are either a mentalist, a druid or a time wizard. *head desk*

I want to be a werewolf, but darn it, all the traits I want are split up between the choices. It's frustratingly fun :)

Anyway, I won't make a char. sheet now, and wait to see if someone else wants to have a shared backstory

Captcha = end of the world. Hm, a coincidence it would be that when I'm looking at the werewolf wiki entry that is entitled Werewolf: The Apocalyse? Kinda creepy


I'm thinking an Anarch Lasombra, but I wouldn't want to cause... Lots and lots of group tension, since it looks like we've got mostly solid Camarilla clans. Thoughts?

I might join, but I'm not sure if I want to be a Malkavian or a Son of Ether. No, I won't be a fishmalk, by the way, I'd try to play it more like an actual insane person, instead of a random anoying attention whore.

Reserve a place for me, please. I need to read up a bit on oWOD as it has ages such I spent my nights on the wiki. Am very interested, but unsure to what sort of character I'l create or if some other RPs I'm involved in are trapped in cryostatis or not.

This is the old stuff, before alot of those things were released, so no Lasombra. Just Brujah, Gangrel, Malks, Noses, Tories, Tremere, and Ventrue. I'm using the original rulebooks(or second ed in Werewolf's case because I can't find the original one), so whatever's in them, is on here, modified to make this work better.

Good luck with that, never had an attention whore Malk before so I don't know how bad it is.

Everyone else: don't be afraid to submit a sheet or ask me questions, that's kinda why I'm here. Anything I have wrong with your sheet I'll do through pm's and bring the portion that irks me through with it. Anyone that hasn't received a pm, look up, I haven't found anything I feel the need to nitpick.

Could you post my sheet for me? I think I've misplaced it and I can't find the file.

Okay, so we're very solidly Old School here... Um. I only have the Revised ediition, and I don't particularly see a way on the wiki to differentiate between what was there First Edition and what was added afterward. So we're limited to Core Book things only? Like none of the Caitiff rules or anything?

No Caitiffs, because I can't think of how to fit them in here, since in my games they're mostly either on the run, completely ignored, or ruthlessly hunted. And since this is kinda just Kindred banding together to offset their weaknesses apart, the Caitiff's aren't exactly welcome with most Clans.

It was merely an example. I guess the question then is does First Edition have Anarchs? I prefer playing them.

Hey, I've only played the second game so I'm not sure which clans are in the first edition. Any chance you can list them in the OP?

If you're asking about Vampire, I quoted myself up above, the stuff in 2nd ed., as far as I remember, didn't really change anything up with the Clans, just the system got a few tweaks.

Okay, I'm pretty new to OWoD (particularly Mage), though I am a huge fan of the lore (unfortunately not Mage).
Here's what I hope is a half-decent new sheet.

*Sigh* I wish Genius was Old World...
Nothing quite compares to using a Wonder just outside a Clockstopper's influence to teleport three tonnes of rock down on it.

[note: this is just vaguely related whimsy, pay it no mind]

It's a shame with the Rites, so much for my Theurge character. But the justification is acceptable. Currently working on a Ragabash character, expect to see the sheet soon-ish.

Also: bumpity bump

Just so you guys know, this isn't dead, I'm just waiting for another few submissions. I'll keep this open until THURSDAY, and then look for a new thread where we'll start it off, with or without you Garou wannabe's. I'll just have to make up some npc's that you'll meet later on.

@Terratina: Do whatever you want, I'll be waiting for a bit longer

Also: anyone with WoD experience, PM me so that I can know who to watch out for if they go off canon, and who I should really punish because they forgot about the scar on Larry the Golden Banana Vampire's left cheek.

Idk if Floris told you, but we have a shared backstory that we agreed upon earlier. Just FYI.

YOU FOOL! Larry has a scar on his RIGHT cheek!

I may make a werewolf for this, if I have time tonight.

Well, if you do, get it done as fast as you can. there's only one other werewolf sheet I've gotten and I was about to have to tell them that there wasn't enough players to open up the Werewolf venue.

Ok, I'll get to work on it.

EDIT: Got about halfway done, will likely have it up on Saturday as my Exalted group meets tomorrow and I wont have time to ffinish before that.

Anything you'd like changed/elaborated on, let me know.

Malyc:

Backgrounds: 14 points

Allies: 2

Tate is in a mutually beneficial arrangement with a small gun-running organization that operates out of the mountains near Lost Lake. They provide him with firearms at cost, he keeps them informed of any police interest.

Kinfolk: 2

Past Life: 4

Pure Breed: 3

Resources: 3[/spoiler]

Anything you'd like changed/elaborated on, let me know.

This is the only part of you sheet I'm taking issue with, you only get 5 points to distribute between the Backgrounds. Clean those up, and I can get this thing started.

Everyone Else:

Now that I have gotten the final sheet, we can start this off, so look for the OP in a new thread soon, I promise this time, you've all worked out your backstories(I hope) so I hope the dick waving so many rp's fall prey to in the beginnings aren't as prevalent.

Also, Vampires, if you didn't know yet, you don't drain innocents(ie, your food) unless they attack you first, and since none of you are Nosferatu, then that shouldn't happen very often.

Go ahead and feel free to use this thread as the OOC, groups are a hassle and I don't like them that much(ie, I'm a lazy prick)

My apologies, misunderstood what you meant about getting the same amount of points as vampires. Will fix when I get to a computer.

Edit: Got that fixed for you.

Alright, I'm sorry it's taken so long to get this done, but some things happened, and then some other things happened, and then I forgot like the idiot I am, and subsequently it's taken a bit for me to pull you guys together again. Post should be up pretty soon.
