A note on Requiem Nosferatu. They are the clan as the vampire as the Other, the big M Monster. They're bane is they are all unsettling, supernaturally so, but not all ugly. Some are, with various inhuman disfigurements, features,etc. But it runs a gamut. You can just as easily have a relatively normal looking Nosferatu who exudes an aura that screams sleazy used car salesman, the smile is too plastic, the hair practically spray painted on,etc.
@@AwkwardGMCorbin It does, I find it a lot better! I made a very handsome Nosferatu once, it was an amazing character, I loved it very much. Ps: I believe in the book the Nosferatu are disfigured because it's easier to point them out this way, since it's nearly impossible to show their name through a picture :)
@@lincr.1988 I just ordered the requiem 2nd edition for a steal (10 euros) and I decided to make my first character a nosferatu "thief", I wanted to make him look completely human save for the eyes, that would have a completely black sclera, do you think this is enough for a nos character?
@@paulll47 Yeah, absolutely! I fail to see why it'd be a problem. Just remember that by default in VtR 2e all vamps start with Humanity 7 and the Curse of the Clan only activates (permanently) when the Humanity drops to 6, so I think it'd be cool if you let the black sclera show up only when the curse activates, then everybody will see your eyes going black as your Humanity fades away, and you start seeing the world darker, colder, more sad and lifeless, and you feel that deep loneliness in your heart as the weight of the curse falls upon you. It'd be a dope scene to see, but of course that's up to you.
@@lincr.1988 Fuck man, that was perfect, my character is supposed to be a professional thief, not to big on killing but definitely not adverse to it, I think his humanity should start at 6 already since being a thief even before the embrace, he definitelly is no saint. I've only played the 20th edition of masquerade so I don't know the scales of sins but I remember that a thief or otherwise non violent criminal could fall at humanity 6 but not below. Man I hope I find someone to play with because in my country there is absolutelly no one that playe requiem and from what I read on the internet, there aren't many people willing to try the second edition.
@@paulll47 Where are you from? You can talk to your storyteller about it but remember you're gonna start in disadvantage compared to your other group mates.
@@Danthehorse To each their own on that. I sadly can’t make an existing game’s art more appealing to people, but for Vampire stuff in general there is a lot of artwork out there so you can always pull from that if you want.
I far prefer VtR 2E to any other version. I haven't had a chance to run more than a few one shot games. Traveller and Pathfinder have kept me busy and I still need to carve out time to run Blades in the Dark.
It does, you get XP per dot of Blood Potency of the Victim and a Dot of the Vampire's highest Discipline Dot you don't have (or Skill dots). Additionally you are haunted by the killed Vampire for a month per Blood Potency they had. Its a lot less required to do as Generation isn't a thing in VtR.
7:55 don't quite recall the gramatical reasons why, but in latin, that would be pronounced lanQUEa e sanktum (though I mostly omit the E on my own games). I remember it is because of the C, but I don't recall if that's how Cs are pronounced in latin in general, or if it is some exception to the rule
