Shortly after the reign of Caesar, Pontius was Embraced by the reborn Brutus himself, making him his Childe. After Brutus left this world for the World Tree, Pontius became a noble in what is today Germany, later fighting in the Crusades. During the Great War, Pontius fled to Africa, with many of his 'children', where he encountered the Obayifo, the Vampires of Africa. Pontius kept himself hidden for decades, gathering followers and assets in the American metropolis of Empire City. Bending the Kindred within the city to his will, Pontius became Empire City's Prince, ruling with an iron fist, executing those Vampires foolish enough to leave evidence of their meals. When the local lycanthropes began murdering the citizenry, Pontius took note, and began preparing for the inevitable conflict. Meeting in secret with Nero the Mad, the Roman planned his next move, gathering dark forces to his side for a brutal, but subtle war. Learning from his fellow Ancient that Rasputin the Sage was being held in the farm country surrounding Empire City, Pontius made haste to the small farmhouse. Questioning the Russian mystic, Pontius learned that the Sage had lied to him on the subject of Cain's return. In a legendary fury, Pontius dragged the sorcerer outside, where he was crucified on a post used for hanging scarecrows. Being of the Kindred, Rasputin would be unable to survive long in the glare of the sun, save for the fact that he wore the Amulet of Osiris, an artifact that regenerated flesh in the blink of an eye. Pontius intended for the Sage to suffer for weeks as his meat melted and swirled back together, eternally in a flux of gristle and bone. Leaving the farmhouse and taking the two Opriknikki guards with him, Pontius returned to his lair to plot. Later, one of his carriers was intercepted by the Cattle, forcing Pontius to retrieve the artifact she carried himself. Already hot from Rasputin's lies, the Ancient stalked into the Police Office, his choler up. The Roman tore the officer at the desk in twain, but fell short of retrieving the item he came for, returning to his sanctum smoldering with rage. For hours, the Roman dismembered thralls with his bare hands, drinking deep of their Vitae before creating gory works of art with their innards, which were later framed and hung with care. As a city-wide manhunt began for the murderers, Pontius called for Oliver Lane, the famed Blade of the Covens, who stole away into the Police Office and murdered the carrier and retrieved what his master had sought; the Blade of Ages, a kris forged by a race far older than the Humanii made to kill those of the blood of Cain. Days later, Detective Pinkerton came across the crucified form of Rasputin, whose screams caused one of the officers to madness. Pinkerton impaled the mewling man-meat with a spear of wood, placed him in the car, and drove off in search of his new allies. The allies in question were agents from the Network, sent to investigate the bizarre murders, which they correctly thought to by the work of werewolves. In the days that followed, a careless lycanthrope was caught on camera making a kill, the tape falling into the hands of Matthew Crossman, a reporter with no morality, who planned to sell the tape to the highest bidder. During what was later known as the Center, a four-way battle between werewolves, Network agents, police officers, and the servants of Pontius, each of whom sought to see the tape destroyed. In the end, the tape was destroyed, as werewolves led by Musatei tore Crossman apart. In the end, nearly all of the officers, both federal and state, lie dead or dying, with the animus of Pontius controlling Federal Agent Nash like a puppet of meat and bone. In the days that followed, Oliver killed over seven officers in the safety of their own homes, even going so far as to stroll into Pinkerton's house, leaving subtle clues to the intrusion. Later, the young lycanthrope known only as 'Atlas' killed Musatei in a bloody duel that saw them both dead, but left the Pack without an Alpha. Elsewhere, Lillith began to make her way to Empire City, an event that caused Pontius no small amount of worry. Competition was the last thing he needed at a time like this. As the days flowed on, the Ancient Longinus Embraced Pinkerton, trussed him like a prize hog, and dumped him in the front of the Police Station as a warning. Pontius was livid when this was revealed to him, and desperately attempted to pin the blame on the Network as Nash. The attempt failed, but bought Pontius enough time to prepare for the coming storm. Thanks to the actions of the Gladiator, the Cattle knew that the Kindred existed, something Pontius could not allow. Sending Oliver and the Opriknikki to execute the Ancient, the Roman was forced to quit the body of Nash when the Network stepped into the station with Vampire-slaying relics, returning to his base in the Ordo Dracul Chapter House. Longinus was killed, but at the cost of Oliver being sent into Slumber, nearly having his neck severed by the Gladiator's fangs. As the final pieces came together, Pontius ordered thralls to incite riots and start great fires, drowning Empire City in a tide of violence. Releasing a horde of Larvae onto the streets, the city soon became a slaughter house, with hundreds dead in the course of several days. However, Pontius and his servants were nowhere to be seen, having left North America for Prague, where they took residence in the reality-warping Crooked House, where the witch Black Anise showed them to an ornate room filled with the trappings of royalty. Seated on a great throne made of minute images of shrieking and fearful Humanii was non-other than Cain, Father of the Race of Vampyre. Working quickly to establish himself over the rest of the Kindred, Cain called for the ironic crucifixion of Judas Iscariot, who had ruled in his stead for over a thousand years, yet had abused his power and drove off Cain's supporters. Sending forth Tommy Rawhead to cause panic and terror, allowing Kindred agents to take control of Prague and the surrounding territory. However, Pontius was not the only one to flee to Prague, and Natasha, the Bitch Queen, and her ilk had already laid claim to the benighted city. Beyond the cursed lupines, the Network had arrived, along with Pontius' old enemy, Andy Bruss. Seeking to punish him for the damage he caused in Empire City, Pontius sent Smalls to capture his wife Wendy, and her unborn child. Oliver later contacted Andy, taunting him with their captive. Andy agreed to perform several Unspeakable Tasks in return for Wendy, the first of which was the crippling of the Lunar Brotherhood, a band of werewolves working in Humanity's best interests. The slaughter was tremendous, and many lupines were felled by silver rounds and blades. However, Miranda, the cell leader, was killed in the conflict, thus fulfilling the Second Task which called for her death. Satisfied, Oliver told Andy that the final task was at hand, and he was to take his cell to the Crooked House that night. Andy obliged, and that night, he stepped into the cursed place with his companions. The final task was simple enough, the removal of Andy's left hand. Severing the limb upon a white altar in Pontius' study, Andy witnessed his wife step from behind an alcove. Pontius had Embraced her, his final and most painful trick upon the mortal. The golem had been created just for this purpose, and as Wendy sank her fangs into the simulacra, it was destroyed, and Andy wailed in pain the psychic connection was severed. Pontius screamed in rage at the breaking of the deal, and entered a frenzy, charging downstairs to kill the damned Humanii. In the battle that followed, Pontius was slain, and his ashes interred within an urn. However, his mind remained very much alive. Within a day, Pontius had become a Dyybuk, a Kindred spirit that feeds off dreams. Possessing Father Nakizy, he led the Six Fingered Hand on a crusade against the Network, seeking to finally kill Bruss. As the boat bearing Bruss and his companions sailed into the distance, a powerful force slammed into Pontius, who was very nearly driven from the priest's body. The force was Sven, a powerful mage who perished in the Crooked House, and sought to avenge himself upon the Prince. The battle inside Nakizy's head was fierce, and Pontius was forced to flee or be destroyed. Now, he floats among the dreams of mortals, waiting for the chance to be born again.
Yeah, Pontius did a lot of things. If the story has had a twist it was usually Mordo entering into some sort of Deadly Alliance with Fitzz. Seriously, they're like the Quan Chi and Shang Tsung of this RP.

Just ask Andy
Even though Andy and his family are supposed to be 'protected' from vampires now, I think that Pontius is still going to find a way to screw with him.
I'm personally hoping for a happy ending. I got one at the end of the first installment, with Ryan 'finding himself.'
I got one at the end of the second, with Ryan finally finding a place for himself in the world, and a safe haven for his child, and Holly.
And the third one, well, I envision him settling down into a nice little sub-urb, sending his kid to school, fretting over the day job, whilst his wife makes cakes and cleans the house. To the 50s! And Freeeedddomm!

Snake Plisken just wasn't that bad-ass to me. I mean he just beat up a bunch of almost post-apocalyptic New Yorkers and Los Angelesers. I think that when he beat up an old asian man who had "magic powers" made me lose faith in him.

Snake from Metal Gear Solid.
He went by the name Iroquois Plisken in one game, Iroquois means 'snake' in the language of the Native Americans who lived near Jamestown.
But no Fitzz, he punched a bunch of flashy city-slickers and then beat up an old asian guy.
In The Thing he fought an alien monster thing that took over the bodies of people. Not only did he create the test to see whether or not someone is the monster, but he killed the hell out of it.

It's sort of Funny when you think about it...without Disney and John Carpenter ..Kurt Russel wouldn't have had much of a career.
Oh...just got an idea for a wolf "Tribe/whatever we're calling them"
Hellhounds- Over the past several centuries the world's wolf population has dwindled due to their ever present war with the Kindred, with the humans, and most importantly with themselves. The hellhounds are a brotherhood of wolf warriors loosely organized in small groups all over the world. Their belief system revolves around three pillars represented by their patriarch and symbol; the three headed protector of Hell, Cerberus. The first pillar preaches unity amongst the wolf kind; that every wolf should work for a common cause, which in this case is the survival of the kind and of the order, all wolves that wish to enter the tribe must take and oath to put aside their loyalty, racist, or otherwise issues and fight for each other and wolf kind. The second pillar preaches guardianship, that every wolf has the power and therefore the responsibility to guard their kind and their cause from those who would destroy it. As such, the hellhounds emphasize and demand the killing arts. every wolf must fight for their survival and their ranks are filled with great, well trained killers. The third and final pillar preaches strength, there can be no weak links amongst the brotherhood, every member must show strength, both physically, and mentally, amongst their peers. This creed has caused the hellhounds to be some of the most feared wolves in existence; they are relentless fighters, loyal to each other first and always, and are dedicated to the protection of their kind.
I figured this could be some sort of plug in to the Black Claw...perhaps...I liked the idea of Cerberus iconography being involved in a wolf tribe...dunno just kind of wrote it up on the fly as the ideas came to me so it might not be tuned completely...if at all...:/
I just figured since Mordo plastered us with all these Covens and Cults I'd do one for the wolves...they don't get any love...
Have we ascertained the date of the next one? I can really see the merits of doing it just after the 2nd one ended, but on the flipside, and I know it is selfish, personal reasons, I'd like to see Cass be a kid at the least.

I think 1-2 years after BMIII.
If we follow Twilight Logic (Which I hope to god we don't) he would be 7-8 years old.

IIRC Fitzz said he'd like to see Cass as a kid or even an early teen...IMO to be logical that would involve somewhere up to five years later...but I could be sorely mistaken...
either way, I'm pretty sure Fitzz is in agreement with you Ghosty so perhaps you two might want to converse about that one.
So essentially Cass is going to be me meta gaming right? Just so you know, he'll be 3 years old, be a black belt in Judo, be a dead eye shot, able to hit a penny a hundred yards away with a blunderbuss, and be able to Hulk smash everything that moves when a wolf.
Ok, I am joking, but it does make me think, if he's being brought up by the best Natasha has to offer, you'd think he'd be trained by the best...

Uh yea...it'd be fair game to say he'd be pretty beast (literally) considering he's the wolf "chosen one" add to the fact that his father and mentor is Ryan...yeah...
Not to mention he's being protected by a bunch of "rip your gak up, bubble gum chewing ass kicker" wolves...
And its metagmaing when the character knows something that they shouldn't based on what the RPer knows...what you've describes is something different called Godmodding...
Cass will clearly be trained to be a combat monster...a beast that in the fulness of age will be able to rip swaths through the best any enemy can throw at him...
But he will also be trained in the knowledge of his kind, his lineage...his birthrights ...and his position...as the Father of the Future he will far trancend a simple brawler.

But who's complaining? I can always make up for Harlow's lack of kills in flashbacks...lots and lots of juicy backstory...
@ Ghosty...well what can you expect from a 6'8 Irish guy?
Anyway, I'm going to be sorting through this thread and attempting to compile every bit of character info in one place...then see what works, what "needs work" and what just needs to be scrapped.
Hello Fitzz, working on the mage stuff, I know you said you don't want to many spells, I have 20 spells written but again a mage will only have up to 8 spells. I was planning on having 28 spells total, what do you think of that?

I'd hope that that number will be spread out amongst several caste...as I don't want a single PC having access to an overwhelming amount of spell options.

That' the idea, there will be 7 schools with 4 spells in each and the player picks two, so there is no way someone can pick the best of the best.

All the mage stuff as of far, I know there is still work I want feel back and ideas so I can updates these. I may end of changing the DR rules a bit so things are easier.
Blind Guardian This group prides itself in the order of magic. They believe magic comes from the balance of the universe. They take magic very seriously believe everything must be thought through meaning they take time with what they do. While they are not prudes, they do frown on magic being used recklessly. They will take a long time refining their abilities and making sure things work, for them better safe than sorry.
A Blind Guardian can skip a turn to automatically cast a spell without rolling or suffering failure the next.
Spell
Arcane Balance: The mage can make one of his allies attacks not miss for the next 2 turns.
DR 8
Gray Matter This group is a strange type of mage. They channel magic through chaos and the will have the mind. The Gray Matter also have a very open view of the world to the point where their not just agnostic about god but agnostic about everything to the point where some believe reality is just a state created by human minds and that it is possible to pierce that reality. While they do pride themselves in their bizarre views they are not stupid or random, most are very calm and distanced, mostly because their training is based around meditation and self actualization oppose to strict studying and training. While that is the safe way of training, more inpatient and young mages will use hallucinogenic drugs to brake through the vale of reality.
Gray Matter mages can add 2 magic dice to their magic rolls but failing the spell will make them loose touch with the world around them and can't do any actions for the next turn.
Spell
Distortion: The mages forces their view of reality onto another making them miss a turn
DR 6 but the target gets 5+ save
The Prodigy
The prodigy will harness the power of spirits and daemons bring about their powers.

From Babylonian Demons, Christian Angles to Forest sprites. What ever the bind themselves with they then must live in balance with that being and they can take a huge toll on a person body.
A Prodigy may spend a wound to cast two spells are once.
Spell
Spirit Guardian: The mage brings his spirit to protect them self. The mage gets a 2+ armor save for 2 rounds
DR 8
Winter Sun
The Earth, the stars, Moon and Sun hold great power of the houmous of mages. These mages use the power of the stars, Sun and Moon and turn it back onto the world around them. The Winter Sun speak in strange riddles and tongues and are cryptic in nature, this is mostly because their view of the world is contracted around the reading of the skies, it is impossible for one to truly know the future but yet the have a vague sense of the world around them that still helps.
A Winter Sun can re-roll all failed spell rolls but any second failure will make the mage not be able to use magic for the next turn.
Foresight: The mage is able to get vague imagines of the future and then the time comes the mage knows how tot react. For the next 3 rounds all attacks against the mage get a -2

possibly a faction that gives up their insanity but gains really good world altering powers. you imagination is the only limit you've got the best way to balance this would be because your insane,you summon and alter stuff threw indirect speech.
ex: wants apple.
says " i want the big red roundish fruit that is juicy!"
gets melon,passion fruit,or something similar.
or for a gun you say "powder projectile weapon!" and get an arrow shooting gun. (yes those are real).
of course im sure this idea sounded better in my head.

Factions are kind of limited in the sense that some groups may not like working with mages *cough*Sixfingeredhand*cough*, but overall if you look at things closer to monk or even Buddhist orders then I think that's where you'll get a lot of inspiration for your orders and factions mage wise. Heck, even if you make something like the mutant school in X-Men that would be possible. You'll have your mages who train for years on how to be able to control their powers, you'll have those who train formally(in a classroom, think Harry Potter), and those who train informally(outside of a classroom). For those who train informally, maybe Joe Mage was in a traveling circus as a magician for several years and learned to be able to control his powers on his own before being discovered.
Otherwise, if you want to make one in line with the creeds from the World of Darkness world, they could follow the creed of being Visionaries. They'll fit along perfectly with that whole bit, trying to figure out why everything is happening and destroying it if they have to.

I think Ryan will handle that.

Cass: Uh, pure tail?
Ryan: Yesh, all of the pure tail... gotsit?
Cass: Yeah, only the tail that's pure.
Ryan: Thas a good boy, now getz me a bucket.
Cass: So Erzuli, my dad said I can have the pure tail I want.
Erzuli: He says a lot of things.
Cass: Natasha said that too.
Next thing you know, Erzuli is murdering Cass or turning him into some sort of meat puppet and taking control over all of the werewolves because she didn't want to marry a kid.
We've been discussing new ideas for the next RP including adding mages, and different types of groups one can belong to that will give them certain stat modifiers, a few different vampire and wolf types have been proposed...suggestions about the timeline have been proposed...its been revealed that there will be a parallel dimension to our own which the vampire's rule...etc etc...
lots of fun stuff...you should read the thread over for all the details...

Taking into account the "slumber parties" that Natasha and Kerri used to have...One would think that most of the she wolves on the premises are invited...y'know...unless they're butt ugly or something...

Let's face it, you ever seen an ugly Werewolf?
Only Lon Chaney Jr., Mans face looked like a baboons ass...
And to answer your question...Erzuli and Natasha are " Sisters" in name only...but no slumber parties as of yet...though...ya never know what will happen.

Factions are kind of limited in the sense that some groups may not like working with mages *cough*Sixfingeredhand*cough*, but overall if you look at things closer to monk or even Buddhist orders then I think that's where you'll get a lot of inspiration for your orders and factions mage wise. Heck, even if you make something like the mutant school in X-Men that would be possible. You'll have your mages who train for years on how to be able to control their powers, you'll have those who train formally(in a classroom, think Harry Potter), and those who train informally(outside of a classroom). For those who train informally, maybe Joe Mage was in a traveling circus as a magician for several years and learned to be able to control his powers on his own before being discovered.
Otherwise, if you want to make one in line with the creeds from the World of Darkness world, they could follow the creed of being Visionaries. They'll fit along perfectly with that whole bit, trying to figure out why everything is happening and destroying it if they have to.
I see what your saying but I imagine the Six Fingered Hand will hate the mages no matter what mages thinks. But my main idea with the factions was where the mages draw their power from, like spirits, cosmic energy, internal power, the stars and planets but I see what your saying, I am thinking that there should be a universal mage order that takes mages of all kinds and unites them to a common goal.
halonachos wrote:Ah, are you a Warhammer Fantasy player by any chance Beserk?
No but I am looking into it. That is where I got some of the mage rules.
That's good, in the Warhammer universe there are several "schools" and it seems like you mentioned a few of them so that's why I thought you might play it. If I were you, I would stick with that type of separation for the mage's specialty and then have them all part of one overarching "school".
You could also clump some of them together, for example the schools of death and destruction could be part of a group that seeks to destroy the supernaturals(destruction wanting to destroy them and death wants to get rid of them because they don't have a natural death).
All of the elementals can work together and fire, ice, water, air would be sub-specialties.
Hey I was just wondering...it seems to me that one of the key themes of Blood Moon is that the existence of the supernatural war is kept a secret from the masses...
My thought is...if the war has started in earnest...do you think more people would be aware of it?

More "odd events" may occur, but it probably wouldn't happen until one group could easily introduce themselves and then sweep away all forms of resistance easily.

I think some people may become aware after the first 'breaches' of reallity start to happen. And even then, i'm sure hunters/vamps will do their best to cover it up.
Even the 'Crooked worlds' invasion wants to do a suprise attack. There's no point in announcing theyexist and will now begin their war.
(And hunters don't want a world wide anxiety pandemic. And prefer to handle things themselves)

4 out of 5 hunters also prefer colgate over any other brand of toothpaste. Or is it 4 out of 5 dentists, either way they're both busy about cleansing something so its hard to tell them apart.
Does anyone else notice that hunters tend to die a lot in this RP? If we look at the hunters from the original RP, all but 4 died or were turned into a werewolf. In the second RP all but 2 died or were turned into a werewolf. Also, in the first RP 1 hunter was turned into a werewolf, in the second RP 2 were turned into werewolves. So in the third installment I expect only 1 hunter to survive and 4 to be turned into werewolves or something.

Yes, i noticed it too. Every NPC of Vegas had a tendency to die...
sillyboy wrote:Yes, I noticed it too. Every NPC of Vegas had a tendency to die...
Again...the benefits having no NPCs...it makes your main character look more badass if he/she doesn't have a running mate to compare them too...
I don't know Warork, Harlow is cool and all but he's nothing compared to Sven. In terms of overall badass character I would have to give it to Sven for Blood Moon II, in terms of I I'm not too sure. While I would like to say that Andy was particularly bad-ass, I will have to admit that I am a bit biased.
Chowderhead wrote:Didn't Andy storm the Crooked House, kill everyone inside, and only lose his hand? Any possible his humanity?
He lost his hand, but he had help killing some of the nasties inside and then again Pontius didn't have the common courtesy to actually die. But then again that was the second RP.
Besides, if Sven hadn't of been there the whole Crooked House event would've probably looked like this:
"And then the vampires and ghouls danced and sang as the crucified bodies of the hunters were hung for all of them to see. They cheered at the agony conveyed in their twisting bodies and muffled screams were heard from behind bronze death masks that had been affixed to their faces. The End.".
Musater did nothing in BMII! He got his NPC killed, and moved people from place to place.
NOTHING!
He set events into motion, sure it wasn't particularly bad-ass but he still served a role. I'm not being humble though, just being realistic. That's the difference between my character and I, Andy has an inflated ego and I look at it more realistically. But let's just say that Andy will be losing a lot of his ego in the next RP, and that's just in back story.

Well yeah...anyone would be up there on the coolness factor if they could shoot deep fried Hail Marys from their hands...and Sven is even cooler because he fried a whole bunch of stuff like that before he died heroically, not to mention he had some pretty swank ideas that he used to help the generally FUBARed hunter team.
Anyway, that wasn't really my point, everyone in Blood Moon has their own style that makes them cool...
Ryan is as charming as a three legged billy goat but he's a brute and has some deeply human moments that I enjoy.
Andy is a rogue and a renegade, he's gone to great lengths and much personal loss to do his duty to humanity even if his comrades in arms now reject him. He's got a will to press on that's unbelievable sometimes and that's cool.
Vegas is strong and resilient, she has a mean streak ten miles long and shows a distinct lack of fear that I find awesome.
Pontius is an evil bastard but he's the good kind of evil bastard, the ones that are the bane of the hero's existence, the ones that put the hero in a position to choose between the lesser of two evils, the ones that manipulate and are annoyingly hard to get at, just like a vampiric version of the Joker and that's awesome.
Joker's a slick hunter, he's got a style, a pizazz to his work, not to mention he's got a rockin name and NPCs that reflect that as well. Plus he's with the "King's Men" which for some reason reminds me of the New Vegas "Kings" which means he'd looks something like a witch hunter and a greaser combined and that is just plain cool.
Scarlett started out innocent enough but she's got this mystery and dark brooding going on around her that I find intriguing, add to that the fact she's become something more akin to a Blade uber vampire and that makes her one hell of a package.
Erzuli's got a lot of charm, unlike Natasha she's interested in making sure that the all of the plans of her kind are coming to fruition naturally instead of forced. In that way, she's become a conduit for all of this werewolf prophecy stuff which I find pretty awesome in itself.
Musater's got a calm composure around him, he's the professional, the guy who keeps his cool no matter what and that's why he's awesome.
Dez, well, Dez was the one who got in everybody's way and in the end, despite his gak getting seriously messed up, he got away, that takes some style...
Harlow does things his own way and wont let anyone else tell him otherwise, he's a loner, he's never needed or relied on anyone else and isn't afraid to say what he thinks or do what he wants. Do wrong by him and he'll rip you apart without blinking, do right by him and he still might rip you apart but at least you'll know the difference when its all over and that's his style...
halonachos wrote:That was a really good summary of all of the characters, but, and there's always a but, I still think Sven was the coolest.
And you'd probably be right...that last nod from Mordo was the thing that tipped it for me...
Even after he's dead, he was still beatin the gak out of Pontius and that was awesome...for some reason I imagined that last battle to look something like the last battle between Cole McGrath and the Beast in InFamous 2
Anyways, back to discussion. Any people who join as hunters are probably going to get royally screwed over, but that doesn't mean we don't need them.
The added benefits of being a hunter include awesome weaponry, sure shotguns and machine guns are cool, but hunters get shotguns and machine guns that shoot silver or wooden bullets. Sure having immortality is cool, but hunters can go outside and tan and they don't have to worry about emberrassing themselves on a date during the full moon.
So hunter RPers, we need YOU! Enlist today, die at some point during the RP. In all seriousness though, there really aren't too many benefits stats wise for being a hunter, it comes down to gear. I think that hunters should get some kind of gear depending on their creeds/virtues. A hunter who is zealous will get something that has either more dakka or more choppa in it. Bonus attacks from the weapon, more strength in the weapon, just some little stat boosters. A hunter in the Mercy creed will get something that increases toughness or negates a cetain amount of wounds. Where as a Visionary creed will get something that increases Initiative and does something else.
I'm thinking amulets, and scrapping the division of the creeds into different ones(so instead of 9 there will be only 3).
Zeal would add +D3 wounds and +1 strength against supernaturals. Also -D3 Toughness.
Mercy would take away -D3 wounds(against the wearer) and add +1 to toughness. Also -D3 Strength.
Visionary would get +D3 Initiative and +1 attack. Also -1 strength and -1 toughness.
Explanations:
Zeal: Focused on killing the bad guys so they lose a bit of defense.
Mersy: Focus on defense of the innocent and lose a bit of their attack.
Visionary: Understand their targets and can plan around their moves, lose a bit of attack and defense because of lack of focus in those areas.

Here's the thing: DW doesn't care. You want a battle between Napoleon and George Washington? Have 5 guys duke it out! Want to see Shaka Zulu and William Wallace fight? Good because it's a one on one fight where they each have, like, 7 weapons.

You think you got it bad with NPC's?
Oh boo hoo, you lost 3 guys you met 6 months ago. Musater lost his wife of 10 years, and his best friend of 50 years, and he knows that it's all his fault. That's a rough fall to take.

Think of it Aurelia, Erzuli can just send him to time out whenever he thinks about fulfilling any sort of prophecy. Didn't do his homework, no prophecy fulfillment; didn't do chores, no prophecy fulfillment; snuck out at night, no prophecy fulfillment.
But yes, Andy doesn't have to worry about something trying to get him pregnant so I guess Erzuli gets the upper hand in the terrible life in that department.

History
The idea of a vampire society was born into the mind of Cain since the beginning. The first known successful attempt of Cain was the Roman Empire. The upper class consisted mostly out of vampires or associates. But the society quickly fell into decadence and meaningless arguments. In the meantime Longar resided in the dark lands of ancient Germany, angry over passed memories. There he slowly build his forces, away from the eyes of his wretched brother. And when his brother was the weakest he Attacked. Rome fell in a infernal blaze. The first court of Cain fell under the savagery of barbaric werewolf’s.
Cain was infuriated and swore that his brother would die. During the years Vampires and werewolf’s would battle beneath the icy moon. Countless innocent being dragged In the fight between brothers. The struggle continued, until the protestants tore themselves away from the Catholic church. Cain soon realized that his brother was aware from his influence in the church, and that he had orchestrated this split up. Trying to diminish his worldly power. Cain pushed the Vatican to excommunicate the heretics and wage holy war upon them.
It didn’t take long before a crusade started in Italy, slowly walking towards Holland, the land of the treacherous heretics. Clans quickly flocked to the crusade, answering the call of Cain. Ghouls stalked the borders in raging packs, making sure no wolf could escape. This was going to be the final battle between the two brothers, Cain used everything in his powers to ensure it happened. Even the Oracle was part of his entourage during the crusade, giving him glimpses of the future. Longar realized that this was a battle he couldn’t escape from and decided that this war wouldn’t be fought in secrecy. In the weeks that the Crusade slowly made it’s way to Holland, the curse spread through the ranks. Creating unprecedented numbers of werewolf’s.
The final war between the brothers lasted three years, until it ended at the battle of Gronningen. The battle lasted seven nights and ended with the dead of Longar, by the spear of Longinus. The same spear he had trusted trough the body of the catholics messiah. Since that day he was inducted in the second court of Cain. Even tough there were whispers that Longinus stood on the side of Longar during the first months of the crusade. After the battle Cain betrayed his loyal human crusaders, sparing not a single soul. There would be no eye witnesses that could describe what had really occurred. Story’s of rampaging wolves and pale men battling under the moon, plagued old Europe for decades until it faded into obscurity.
During the century’s after the battle of Groninngen, Cain went back to his idea of a true vampiric society. But to achieve this goal he would have to battle an unrelenting enemy. The Sun. Because as long as the light shone Vampires would be weak. Cain surrounded him with all the Strignoi and magical adepts he could find to achieve what is now called the ‘Nostramo effect’. To plunge the world in Darkness. This group became known as the ‘Swarche Sonne’. In 1992 they achieved their goal and enveloped the world in a black veil. After incantations that had taken several decades. Carefully placed ghouls and Dhampyres in society quickly disrupted the human command structure. Signaling th beginning of ‘the Rise’
Vampire Society
Vampires live in sprawling city's, either self created or by adapting existing cities to their needs. The total populace of the world is severely lower then before the rise. Leaving giant wastelands between neighboring city-states. The wastelands are the only place where pockets of humans still live, free from vampiric reign. They often harbor members of the resistance. The political organs ruling the city-states differ from city to city. They reign from counsels, republics to dictatorships. The organs only have one thing in common, the ruling classes always exist out of Old Bloods. Each existing out of the two mayor house; The Bruttii and Julii..
Tension is high between the Brutii and the Julii. The Brutii view the Julii as warriors and nothing more, with no legitimate claim to nobility, whilst the Julii see the Brutii as gutless bureaucrats. General disdain has begun to swell into hatred, and it's not uncommon to see the two Houses at each other's throats literally and metaphorically. Cain does not condone their little war, and has threatened to have both Brutus and Claudius executed if they don't back down. The two Houses have calmed down for the time being, but their hatred runs deep and the peace is tenuous at best. Even inside the houses intrigues and betrayal are rife, as different clans try to rise to power within their own house.
Wars between city-states are acceptable as long as they don't interfere with the Court. Each city-state must send a representative to the court to plead their case against the other, and ask for permission to wage a Shadow War against the other. A Shadow War is not fought with armies, but with assassination and bribery, bringing the rival city to its knees with masterful intrigue. These wars are strictly monitored by the Swarche Sonne, They act as the right hand of Cain. The Watchers follow the actions of city-states, and look if the rules of conduct are strictly followed.
Findings of treachery and dishonor result in the exile of that city. It's no longer part of Vampiric society. Every member of the city-state is condemned to slavery. Murder and extermination of exiled are encouraged by the Watchers.
The Watchers of the ‘Swarche Sonne’ are the most powerful faction in the vampire society. not because of their wealth or political power. But because they are the ones who maintain the veil, making this world hospitable for the vampiric race. They also closely work together with Cain, to achieve his goal and breach through into the other reality. Lower members are often seen patrolling the streets accompanied by their personal Dhampyres, searching for signs of rebellion and treachery. Their word is final. A member of ‘Swarche Sonne’ doesn't need a reason to erase you from existence. their words are received as if they were from Cain himself.
There is currently one exiled city in existence: Rek’Shilva. This city has defied the odds, unlike other exiled city-states. They survived their punishment by turning their treachery into a virtue. They offer themselves to other city-states as assassin and mercenaries. Selling unsanctioned actions against political opponents. The exiled Vampires do not fear the wrath of the ‘Swarche Sonne, they are already condemned to death.
Each city-state has his own supply of Corpus, used to feed the city. Humans would be placed in units in what only could be described as blood-farms. The livestock is drugged, never becoming aware as medication keep them in a state of unconscious. They are fed intravascular, nutrients immediately placed in the bloodstream, to keep the donor alive as long as possible. Blood taps are connected with the mayor aorta’s, each day taking more and more of the precious vitae.
The blood is distributed to Vampirii living in the bowels of the cities. These ‘bloodstreams’ are heavily regulated, ensuring each Vampire receives their rations. Many gang wars are fought between the new-bloods, as they battle over rations and control over the feeding houses.
The possession of humans, for feeding or slavery is a right that only the Old Bloods have. In secret, some lower Kindred keep humans as pets or personal house-slaves. Some vampires even aid the Humanii to escape into the Wastes to their own people.
These humans are even worse of then 'captured humans', seeing as they would never leave the confines of the vampire's house. And are often bled dry in a matter of days, or die to a lack of nutrients. The possession of humans as a new blood is prohibited. The penalty for their crime is the forfeit of all worldly belongings to the city-state. The mark of criminal is burned into their skin and often a limb would be taken. Cities offer rewards for people leading them to illegal slaves.
Another capital offense is the embracing of humans. Human stock is precious and the cities don’t look kindly towards new kindred. The Embracer and Embraced are both condemned to death, their lifeless bodies thrown into the streets. If the Vampire was part of the nobility, his name would be cleansed out of each document. Erasing every momentum that proves they existed.
Roving Opriknikki death squads patrol the streets with packs of trained larvae, serving as especially brutal Arbites. They search for signs of riots, members of the resistance and many other capital offenses. Especially they are looking for the moving flesh markets, black markets run by ghouls who sell off stolen and captured Humanii to the highest bidder. Of course, this crime is punishable by crucifixion. These Arbites are often referred to as the strong arm of the ‘Swarche Sonne’ helping with the things the Watchers can’t handle by themselves.
Much like ancient Rome, cities would hold gladiatorial games. As the clans tries to please the plebs. Giving them the sight of fresh blood spilled, keeping their hunger satisfied and thankful to the ruling class. Each clan would have their own champions, that would often battle each other in the arena’s to settle manners of honour. There is also much pride to be the owner of the houses champion, it’s not uncommon for ruling champions to be the target of assassinations, or to be traded in exchange for large favors.
The bowels of the city aren’t filled soley with new bloods, There are the Ghouls, who are generally submissive towards the Kindred, and the Bound can live quite comfortably if they play their cards right. The 'free' ghouls war among themselves in turf wars, killing themselves in droves every day. There are some cults that call for a rebellion against the Kindred and an establishment of a 'ghoul nation' somewhere in the Wastes. Free ghouls are often mistrusted by the vampiric society, they see them as the cause for the increased rebelliousness of the Prometheans. Free ghouls would plant lies into their heads of freedom and own choice. Shaking the foundation on which their society is build. Namely large armies of Prometheans, working tirelessly in the shadows. Growing the food to keep the human stock alive, feeding the machines who make the city function trough the eternal night.
Sinister fey are not uncommon in the streets of the Crooked World, trading dark and esoteric goods with Kindred before returning to their home planes. The most common of these dark fey are the Malick, stick-thin figures as pale as the Kindred they trade with. The Malick travel the cosmos in strange, magickal skiffs that can cut the aether to allow them entry. Often cloaked in huge, concealing robes, the Malick travel in groups called Krewes, peddling their rather unique services. The Malick deal in secrets, and are willing to sell any bit of knowledge to anyone, provided they can pay the price. In their bizarre dream-scape, the Malick can see into the minds of beings from all over the multiverse, learning their secrets and storing them in glass orbs. A Krewe often takes up residence in the darkest, deepest slums, camping in great, massive tents made of manhide. One seeking knowledge must simply find the Malick, and tell the fey the secret he wishes to know. The Malick will then name the price of the secret, the cost often maims the buyer for life, for the Malick collect flesh. For the least important secrets, an eye or an ear will do, but for those secrets that can shake the world, the Malick may ask for vital organs and possibly all four of the buyers limbs.
In the darkest parts of the city, the Skelts haunt the streets, hooked arms clacking over the cobbles as they stalk their prey. Thought to be from the same realm as the Malick, the Skelts appear in the same manner: tall, hunched, and robed. The most defining feature of a Skelt is their long, hooked arms that poke out from the folds of their robes. Skelts hunt in groups of two, one flushing their prey towards the other. More than anything else, Skelt related deaths are by far the most common in the slums. The Kindred would like to see them removed, but simply don't have the time nor the will to commit the manpower to eradicate the menace. The Skelts enter in through where the barriers between worlds are weak, areas that are rather common in the Crooked World.
The inhabitants of the crooked world all look up to Cain as a savior, as he promises new hunting grounds and corpus. There are even rumors of religious cults rising up from the underbelly of society. Claiming to be the right hand of Cain. Slaying everyone who doesn't accept that Cain is their messiah to better times. but behind closed doors, the Iscariots plot against the Crimson King, planning a rebellion that will see him toppled from his throne. Any Kindred suspected of being an Iscariot is publicly crucified. This is the mayor reason why Watchers often appear in the city-states. Tearing away from their esoteric studies to root out the traitors. No vampire trusts the Watchers as they often crash into their carefully organized plans, revealing them to their opponents. Some Vampires even suspects them from not being neutral and selling information to the other side.

Elementary my dear lck, I will demonstrate it for you. First you start the day going to the overcrowded mall to pick out bar clothes, you want to look reasonably fashionable when getting your first drink after all. In the afternoon you begin a bar crawl and visit various pubs and bars to taste their offerings for alcoholic beverages. While you're moderately buzzed you think it would be a good idea to go to a strip club, but first you want to pick up something that would make the strip club ever so more fascinating. Seeing as it would probably be night time now you go to the playground and find the guy wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt and get some drugs from him, maybe some marijuana, and after taking it you go to the strip club and have some fun. After awhile the marijuana is giving you some serious munchies so you manage to stagger to the local waffle house and enjoy a nice meal of waffles and maple syrup before staggering home and falling asleep.
Ta-da one fantastic day, although the next morning is probably going to suck.

Don't think of yourself as an adult yet, if you're still in school then you're still a youth. Or if you want a man-child but that usually has negative connotations in it. I would say young-adult Silly, you're a young-adult.
( Silly the grown up. Somehow its hard to imagine myself like that. )

the books are great! i haven't seen the show though,so i dont know how much they changed. and as for mr.stark, his problem was he was too nice and honorable,which led to his death. also books tell you their thoughts while shows dont,so it can make reasons seem different then what they were.

Scarlett is going to go all sorts of crazy on any and all vampires who don't want to become a super-vampire. Cain is going to have to worry about Scarlett and the Iscariots, possibly with the Iscariots allying with the super-vampires to beat Cain. Erzuli, Harlow, Holly, and Ryan are all aiding Natasha in her werewolf prophecy hobby. Pontius is floating around looking for someone to hijack, and Cain is preparing for war against the wolves.
And Andy, Andy is just a three-legged werewolf slave with a happy little humani slave family.
Oh, and we have silly bringing in a demented girl-scout vampire.

I just realized...there aren't many friends in this big group is there? I mean the hunters work with the hunters just because they're all on the same team...same thing fro the wolves and the vamps...not a whole lot of love going around though...too much bad blood and contemptuousness going about methinks...
Joker is still friends with Andy, Christmas's are incredibly awkward though. Andy barks at strangers when they show up at the party and it takes awhile to explain it without saying that Andy is a werewolf.

Friends just allow the enemy to get one more advantage over you. Allies is a much better deal.

a valid point Chowder...
That's why Musater doesn't have many friends.
It also could be that he has the personality of a brick, but meh.
Its funny because his wife/female lover was killed. Haha, she died.
See...I was going to say that the reason Musater didn't have many friends because they all got killed...but...that seemed a bit...harsh, funny as hell..but harsh.

Even I hate Dez. He's a coward. He also has the schitzo voice of Musatie's killer in his head. Which must come in to play in BM:III

Meh, Musater showed a bit of tactical knowledge by avoiding the whole fiasco all together...
Dez on the other hand was either to blinded by his quest for vengance..( or glory) to realize he and his daddy were walking into a trap...

Except he also kind ran from the fight.
He didn't run. He didn't even go to the fight!
Pansy.
Andy's run from his fare share of fights, too.
Maybe if he did run from those fights he wouldn't be a three-legged werewolf, Andy is almost synonymous with fight by now. Anytime he left a fight it was because it was over or it was because he was trying to protect someone else, unlike Musater who had a chance to overthrow Natasha but didn't take it. Now if Andy had been a hunter with all of his limbs he would've been all over that action, naked twister or not.
He would probably also be dead, dead but that's a different story.

Let's face it. We all knew that going in there was suicide. On one side you have the Kindred, who want to kill everyone in the regality of the Lycans (Musater, Natasha, Ezruli, Cass, Etc) and Natasha, who wants to kill Longar for being a better heir to the throne, and Musater for being a traitor and killing a few of her generals.
He was stuck between a rock and a hard place, and he knew that the only way out was to not go.

Wait are we talking about Dez or Atlas?
Either way I think we should nip this one in the bud...all its going to do is encourage shas to get on here and then the flame war begins...
Anyways, we need more bloodshed and I intend to start with my quota in my introductory post for the next Blood Moon.
Also, I think you overestimate Andy in terms of his thinking about getting into situations. I mean the guy got married to a girl he knew for about a month.
Question to the populace: Should the opening for Musater be in a back alley, a school, or a cafe? It's all storyboarded (I kinda make storyboards for RP posts in GIMP with stick figures) and I just need a setting.

The back alley of the school's cafe.
Or if you want something serious a school, I can just imagine the bloodshed there. Well, there's either going to be a lot of bloodshed or Musater has some spawn that decided to bring Musater to the school to talk about what he does for a living.

Worst "Bring your dad to school day" ever.
Teacher: And so Musater Jr, what does your dad do for a living?
Musater Jr: He eats people!
Musater: Now, now Musater Jr don't be silly. I maul people and then eat them after my chef cooks them to my taste.
Class:*stares in shock.
Musater: Who wants to be a werewolf?
I may be going to hell for this, but this just gave me an idea. Have Musater go to a school and recruit an army of werewolf kids who instead of craving sugar and candy, crave diabetics.
I would have imagined it to be that Longar comes along as well, and just starts licking his crotch in the corner while everyone stares awkwardly. Then Musater kills everyone.

For some reason when I imagine Musater killing somebody I get the image of Christan Bale from American Psycho in a suit and poncho...replace the axe with a sledgehammer...

Black doesn't show blood well. If you read my RP's, Musater only wears Black and Red, so he can pass off blood as just coffee stains or something, need the situation arise.

Well yeah, they're werewolves, not werebirds.
That was a terrible joke, but to be honest I was talking with mordo for a short bit to see if my story would fly, and let me just say that Andy's life managed to get a bit worse.

Yeah that's impossible. Unless his baby was possessed by Pontius, or something, I can't see it getting much worse.
" Damn Pops."
...Sounds good to me...
