@WernherSo basically anything in the game which is right handed?


And more. Simon's bow blade was nice but if you want to make your own trick weapon and it's balanced...
@Alex R as if you have the choice of not wearing that glorious cone lol

@ClocktowerEchos you can use non gun powder weapons but people will laugh at you because they are far less effective than guns. But! It's still a silent option with recoverable ammunition so you might just have the last laugh if you choose that.
@Mag Lev

Glad to see someone interested!

I'll leave combat between players to players themselves and if you want to decide the outcome of the fight first or RP it and see where it goes, its all fine. I'll however step in during disputes and mind you, I won't decide the outcome of these fights with a throw of the dice. I'll first look at all player abilities and should they be evenly matched, I will bluntly say that I'll chose the character that I think can further the story the most. That doesn't mean I'll kill the character though, as I intend to leave death to when it would be grand and epic, as well as to the players who vanish or, and I hope not to come to that point, those that would cause OOC problems.

So yes, its all possible! Though... that hunter of hunters isn't there for nothing. Remember that the endless night isn't upon us (Yet) and a lot of characters work together (in theory) so fighting someone else over a kill, death and blood, is a sure sign that said hunter is becoming blood drunk, and that the line between beast and men is fading for him. There can (and should!) be animosity between hunters (And some should outright kill each other. Blood dregs being menstrual blood I expect the vileblood to go full Jack the Ripper on Yarnham to please his queen. And then there are the Mensis ass holes...), remember that a dead beast is the best of outcomes, no matter who killed it.

But you know what? I still encourage you to lean toward the dark side and seek confrontation with others. Its no fun if we don't have a few bad apples!
Don't you think bloodborne had an amazing lore to it? Even if you never played the game, wouldn't you agree that werewolves, vampires, ghosts and monsters in general, all tied up by eldritch cosmic horrors from beyond sounds like fun?

Though one thing I'm curious of is Yarnham, before blood and guts clogged the drain and all the nasty shit came to the surface. The healing church, choir, Lawrence...

So here's the setting I'm suggesting.

-Lawrence, the first vicar, is still very much alive and we live in the golden age of his cult, of Yarnham and of the Healing Church, though the dread of another hunt is looming, and everyone can feel in their guts that this one will be the worst one yet.

-I wouldn't allow to take the original characters as Lady Maria, Ludwig, Lawrence and so forth would be there to keep a plot moving. That's right, this would be about uncovering and, hopefully, stopping eldritch truth.

-Some division and factions within the characters, intrigue! I'd see it go something like that:
--1/1 Hunter of Hunters
--1/1 Choir Member
--1/1 Mensis Member
--2/2 Yahar'gul 'Hunter'/Kidnapper
--2/2 Blood Saint
--1/1 Vileblood
--2/2 Cainhurst Knight
--3/3 Executioner
--3/3 Ludwig Follower (Hunters who believe in brute strength, violence and blood to purge the beasts)
--3/3 Maria Follower (More dexterous hunters focusing more on formalities, nobility and in general, human values, to starve off the beast within themselves)
--3/3 Powderkeg (IF IT AIN'T GOT KICK IT AIN'T WORTH IT! FIRE! EXPLOSIONS! Also: Heresy.)
--x/x Yarnamite Volunteer (The rabble trying to defend their home with what little weapons and skills they have)
--x/x Civilian

The aim of that being to keep a diverse crew that can help and hinder each other, each faction having its little quirks and some having drastically different objectives. ALSO: Some of these would be first come first served, but as the GM I'd ask for veto of some of these characters, especially ones with only one spot since they tend to be more important.

-It isn't the first hunt, but hunters aren't fully institutionalized within the church either, though its a notable trend.

-As far as you know, there is no dream.

I intend to make a fancy OOC if there is enough interest. Questions? Comments? Insults?
Still here, posting Friday.

I hope death will strike soon. This is all too nice and cute.
@darkwolf687

Mind if we agree to have some history between some of our characters?

Namely, I'm thinking my good Viktor to have a large and cumbersome debt toward Edwin, but that at the same time he tries to use his father Duke Euric, to shield himself from it.

Euric himself, since he's the head of the wealthiest region of the kingdom, is profoundly annoyed by Edwin's very existence and job, the master of coin having to deploy enormous efforts to get any penny from the duke and his vassals (Should he get or even fail to get the taxes he asks for, I'm thinking of Edwin always being the one Euric points his finger at for every ounce of gold he has to tax his people.)

Could be an interesting intro maybe? Viktor being there to try and haggle for debt consolidation, milder interests, etc. The two of them either walking out satisfied, or, most likely, hating each other. Thoughts?
Eh. I suck at formatting but ok.
Is this post ok?
