Yeah we'll have to work out the details. I should also start writing things. Hope we get a CS and an OOC soon.

ANd vampy is still reading I sent the PDF of DA in our PM

You two have your characters set, anyway. We're all going to be playing together though, right? So I may as well get in on this discussion. I'm not up on what Vampy's doing. Or if Navyvet, sloth or others are still interested. But I pretty much know I'm throwing a Tzimisce into the mix. An old Slavic pagan most likely. Maybe an old tribal Knjaz or something. I mean so far we have a warrior and a scholar between the two of you. So, I'm guessing I should take on the the social aspect. A tribal leader would fit that role very well. Via Diabolis (Road of the Devil) would certainly be appropriate for what I'm doing. And I could distinguish it from Vampy's idea by having my character take a more gallant and hedonistic approach to the road. Having been a vampiric Voivode would also be appropriate. But losing that status for some reason, would ultimately be more interesting. Perhaps a Vassal Voivode, one who came into power serving a greater Voivode and has been sent to establish a powerbase in the west, ending up in Rome. I think that could work out well.

@Alchemical Chimera

That would be excellent. Perhaps a patron for my Capadocian, someone who "appreciates" his talents? And I don't even know if our setting is rome, the character I'm using is actually one of my originals. He's sort of danced his way through vampire games and roleplays since the dawn of time for me. I think he started as a ventrue, moved to being a tremere and now he's going to be a capadocian. He's just always been from Rome (Hence the name Marcus) which typically means he's hella old in the games i play because they take place in modern nights. So I'm hoping in this one We're after the fall of Rome (Hence the dark ages) so he'll be somewhere in his upper hundreds (I havent done the math yet but I don't want to push him toooo close to being a Methuselah so he may actually be from Constantinople after the fall of Rome depending on what year we're starting in)

Well it would work just fine. You'd be facilitating a study of death. Hence the path of bones

Seeking Old World of Darkness Storytellers and Players for Vampire: the Masquerade or Vampire: the Dark Ages.

Your list of path's is incomplete i believe as I will be using the path of Bones. I think i've settled upon a cappadocian necromancer. Atleast for my first character. If we're allowed to do more than one

@Themerlinhawk

It's all a direct lift from the chapter on character creation in the Vampire the Dark Ages core book. The Road (they are only called paths in modern nights) of Bones is introduced in Clanbook Cappodocian. I also didn't include the Road of Tears, The Road of Metamorphosis (which the core book hints at in the section on Tzimisce), or The Road of the Hive. Nor did I include any of the revised Roads or Paths fro Dark Ages: Vampire. That book tries to make the roads into a series of guilds like it's a dnd game. I tell you it loses the whole point of the Dark Medeival World. Now, as a Necromancer, I'm guessing you're going to be a Giovanni? @Howler said she might include character restrictions, so I'd run my ideas by her before starting on too much back story.

@Alchemical Chimera

cappadocians were the original necromancers, the necromancy discipline was originally used by them to raise corpses as opposed the giovanni penchant for spirit necromancy which i find lacking. Although I guess technically they use the mortis discipline. and okay i didnt realize it was a direct lift XD For a second there I thought you were hella cool and had just wrote that shit out like a badass

good choice merlin, im choosing the Path of the Beast, i thought about it and looked at his nature and demeanor, he is a monster after all and willing feeds the beast within, with out a care in the world, he has the need to feed on anything that still has a heartbeat, even a little sparrow, i am thinking that this gangrel would need a daylight guardian though, see how i was thinking his reputation alone should catch the attention of the group, a ruthless blood thirsty monster, he was originally a Gladiator in the Roman coliseum hence his animal like behavior and fighting skills, retreat leads to death, so he lets the beast within have its fun, when he was bit it was while he was escaping from rome, so, i have some of his story there, and his age, romans and the roman coliseum are old, old world times, so if that works for the group then im happy with my choice

@Thantos

maybe our characters have met before then, since Either my necromancer or one of the other characters i have in mind (assuming i can play more than one) is going to have been from rome before the fall

Do you wanna PM me with questions? I have a pretty good grasp of Vampire so maybe I can help you out? ~@Themerlinhawk

Sure I'll pm you ^^

@Vampy

Okay!

i'm in the background generation process so if you wanted to link up characters we could. ~@Themerlinhawk

I don't have it made jet I'm a bit lost in just how to make it. I was thinking of something that @Alchemical Chimera posted, the road of the devil I really like that idea but yeah I'm really lost right now in how to make it :(
