  • In which the gentleman in question explains to our ignorant Neonate the horrible truths of the Beast within. Is it something to be feared? Can the Beast be controlled? Should a vampire pacify his Beast? Answers within...

    Stumbled on to these by accident, and even though I've never played a table top game in my life, I am something of a white wolf fan. I've rather enjoyed these, so thanks for the {informative} entertainment.
    Also, doing the explanations "in character" as it were? The best. I hope you stick with such a formula. Makes it more fun.

    That was a very powerful ending! I would love to learn more about our mentor, but I am afraid to ask him...

    I Frenzied last night? During Elysium?! Well now…… so that’s why I can’t remember what I did towards the end of last night. I can’t recall the last time that happened. I must have made an awful bloody mess, looks like I own an apology the Prince and perhaps to the Toreador I maimed. That’s if they survived the encounter of course. I’ll do my best to take your advice and shorten that leash.

      NewWaveMasquerade Words won't make the trick. It will be some time before the Prince and the rest of the kindred can forgive your lack of self control. If they do.

      Puppet Strings No matter, my apology would have been phoned in anyway and I could give less of a damn about the Camarilla. I’m independent and I only play nice with the Ivory Tower just to keep them off my ass or to use them for my own exploits if the opportunity provides itself. Besides I have the backing of the rest of my Clan so no real worries. Praise Set! >:)

    • @YellowFollower
      @YellowFollower 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Oh, my apologies my fellow typhon follower. I didn't relise that you were working in your web.
      Please, tell me where's the temple of this city so I can praise to Sutekh and leave you with your work.

    • @NewWaveMasquerade

      Puppet Strings The location to the Temple of Typhon Set is a well guarded secret and well hidden from Kine and non Setite Kindred alike. It must be when so close to a Camarilla city as I’m sure you understand. The temple must not be compromised or tainted by anyone or anything, especially from the blasphemous Serpents of the Light or their detestable shovel headed brethren. There are two undercover Setite locations within the city, one being the temple itself.
      The first being in the guise of a exclusive, highfalutin five star restaurant in the fancy part of the city, it’s used as a front for those of our Clan and our ghouls to pass long important items from one to another or for casual, non worship meetings that can be held in the VIP section of the restaurant or in the back away from costumers and common employees.
      The actual temple itself is hidden beneath a Catholic cathedral (One of many Catholic churches within the city.) in a …subbasement of sorts and is heavily guarded in numerous ways I can guarantee you that. Now in order for you to find the correct church to get to the temple itself you’ll have to find the correct restaurant that I mentioned prior. And in order to achieve that I’m afraid I must leave it up to you to discover, for the safety of the temple, its worshipers and priests/ priestesses. You’ll have to rely on your wits and the influence of Set to guide you.
      Once you’ve found it, go there some night to dine (Bring a date along to help blend in with the scene if you wish. Also formal wear is mandatory at this establishment, just so you know) and there will be a maitre d who’s also a Setite with Auspex and they will be able to identify you as a Follower of Set. From there the maitre d will subtlety provide you with the location of the cathedral, as well as a time and date when to go. Once you arrive at the cathedral at the given time you will be approached by another Setite who will be expecting you and will instruct you further. Good luck in this endeavor my fellow Setite, I hope to see you there one night for the worship of our dark, Typhonic god.

      Thanks, my friend. We'll met again, since I'm confident in my succeed. Sutehk will lead the way, after all, and I'll follow his path of shadows.

    Is there a possibility of covering the Disciplines in detail alike these?

    • @Marioshrooms
      @Marioshrooms 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Royalty of House Scarlet I very much like this idea. As someone who is sick of looking online, and in various books, I'd like to know what the standard discipline set is, and what each one is capable of at varying strengths and masteries.

    • @ronraum9320
      @ronraum9320 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Royalty of House Scarlet I wonder if he would mind other people picking up reigns and mimicing his style of videos to do stuff like that. If such were the case, I really think we could have a web of the entirety of the CWoD stuff on youtube for reference xD

    • @KaiserAfini
      @KaiserAfini 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ron Raum More CWoD in youtube ? Make the setting more well known and having more players ? Possibly enough to make a sequel to Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines or being the creation of a World of Darkness MMO (one that actually ships) ? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes

    That was damn good. I really like that you do these videos in character it makes them as entertaining as they are informative.

  • @Hauptseite
    @Hauptseite 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You have earned a subscriber. Your videos are always massively entertaining and quite informative, and I look forward to future videos. I would also like to second what another user suggested; A video or series of videos covering some of the Disciplines in greater detail. I myself am particularly interested in the mental based Disciplines, like Dominate, Dementation, Obfuscate, Auspex, etc.

    as a nosferatu, I can assure you that holding one's beast back isn't easy when one is constantly told one is a beast.

    World of darkness in both new and old seem to be about the struggle of the good side vs the dark side, the ego and/or superego vs the id. There is a lot of man vs himself in most of the games' narratives.

    According to werewolf culture, a vampire's Beast is nothing but a manifestation of the corrupted spirit known as the Beast-of-War.

    I have a couple ideas for the vampire videos future episodes considering the role and treatment of ghouls in vampires society/clans, it might be pertinent to do an episode on them. And being something of a lore hound myself a couple of videos on the first and second cities maybe even the war of the princes might be interesting

    @that1n3rd4 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Recently found your channel tonight and I find myself curious about which clan you portray. From the different clan videos you seem to take on that clan in particular but in this one, which I feel you portrayed your own clan, it seemed either like Ventrue or perhaps Brujah. If you get the chance to reply, or if someone else in the comment sections knows, I would be eternally greatful.
    Good evening.

    • @storytellernylan9157

      He is portraying a Cappadocian or " Harbinger of Skulls ", you can tell by the pin he is wearing, whats more he is portraying the canonical character Roger de Camden or Lord Camden.

    So does that mean that the tzimisce theory of the beast is incorrect?

    • @KaiserAfini
      @KaiserAfini 9 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      They have an affinity for their inner beast, not as much as the Gangrel, but powerful nonetheless. They can choose to draw on its power to command lesser beast, take advantage of its sharpened senses and even permanently peel away the illusion of humanity. The question is, no matter how many times you ride the wave of frenzy or gorge yourself in blood, in the end, who is the master and who is the horse ?

    The Beast is Demonic Possession of the Curse of Cain? Right?

    • @SoulOfTheReaver
      @SoulOfTheReaver 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is part of Caine's curse yes, but it's not exactly demonic possession, it's more like your Id, the most animalistic and basic part of your psyche, being amplified a hundredfold, given its own awareness, and fighting for control of you.
