[quote=@DiamondBlizzard] [quote=@Earnest Evans] Still, teleportation and insta-avoidance are [i]big[/i] no-nos. I'm not going to go into the acres of personal bias I have against OC vampires that are basically WoDpires with the weaknesses filed off, but they've got some nastily abuseable powers. [/quote] Aw...tsk....I can live without teleporting, but I can't suspend projectiles and magicks in midair? WoDpires? Also, Vitae Manipulation is a TRUE vampire's spirit, it is another source of magic, available only to vampires, it is anti magical, and has many uses. [/quote] Have you ever heard of Vampire: The Masquerade or Vampire: The Requiem? They're fantastic tabletop games, exploring the depths of what it means to be a Vampire, and the nightly struggles of coping with having to injure to survive. You've made characters that basically seem like Tremere vampires but without such silly things as "relevant specialization" or "personal faults" or "relevance to being vampires". Personally, I'm curious as to how they'd fit in with either faction, as neither of them seem very useful in military engagements (being vampires) so Shadow Eternity wouldn't want them, and they're [i]vampires[/i], so UMMA's going to keep them on a short leash. Also, if Vita Manipulation is anti-magical, how is it a source of magic?
