He's canonically a 9th gen, which puts him above pyotr post-diablerie, though pyotr would probably still be on par with him due to experience. This is pretty middling by vampire standards if I remember correctly, so he's probably a one-trick-pony to have such power. Still impressive.
"Do vampires have....laser heat-vision?" "Only if they are sufficiently fascinated with the Carpathian mountain range!"- reference to the Elemental Magics of Koldunic Sorcery used by Vampries around that region, I think.
42:55 I think Big D is just playing up the shallowness of vampire blood magic to dissuade Markus. Because if you remember, Markus has tend to be reckless in seeking power, but doesn't want to damn himself when he has so much hidden potential.
That plus he's making Mages look cooler to Markus, as Markus has great potential to be a mage. In essence, Big D doesn't want his son to give up a grander power for cheap tricks
@@Organoth-wi4mx I think he also genuinely respects the magic arts and believes that vampires are piggybacking off of and corrupting “legitimate” magic by introducing blood into a practice that never needed it. Occam is an ex of his, after all.
44:14 wtf, she literally read his notes and has been in the arcanum presumably for decades, as well as being one of the chapter elders who have been explicit stated to discuss vampires. It would be weirder if she didn't know this stuff. I know this team is tricky but Occam's Razor should still be applied before reading so far between the lines that you hallucinate what isn't there and entirely miss what is.
Yeah, just, sometimes you should wait for what really happens before reading too much into it to the point you walk off the goddamn road like our resident almighty one.
Even if she was the ghoul Airier's earlier claim/guess of her being so because she "tried to dominate Marckus" would make no sense with Big-D and Kitten present. Similalry him being stuck on the phrasing of "our ghoul" for no reason. Airier does that quite a lot.

39:55 SHE ALMOST SAID TREMERE... HOW DID SHE KNOW IT'S TREMERE WHO SENT THE GHOUL???!!!!! Markus: “We have a murderer loose in the house somewhere.” *muffled voice in the walls* “I’m not not here-real, ignore me me!”-the not-Great-Horned-Rat, probably.
I think she was talking about Kevin. The way D interjects with vampire wizard and all that. Plus it makes sense with what she's sayung before about D's source being right.
She's a senior member of the Arcanum, so obviously she has some more advanced knowledge on the subject of vampires, probably from D himself. As for why she would mention the Tremere? Well, Dominate and Thaumaturgy are both Disciplines that belong to them, so it makes sense for her to bring the name up, especially if she's figured out that D's informant was a Tremere and that their Ghoul infiltrator was sent by the local Regent, which the Arcanum may or may not already know about.
38:22 I wanna explain this one real quick. TL;DR, old-school Tzimisce are bound to the land in Transylvania, i.e. the Carpathians and the area around it, because unlike younger Tzimisce who prefer the whole flesh-sculpting thing, they instead rely on a form of very old sorcery where they are so attuned to the local spirits of the landscape that they have access to a vast array of elemental abilities, such as flight, molding earth, shooting lightning out their fingertips, or I suppose firing lazers from their eyes.
34:08 What? No! You overthinking his "I cannot say" reply to Kitten; that's just a common alternative way of saying "I don't know". And besides, trauma-induced amnesia, especially targeting the memories involving said trauma, is a real-life phenomenon.
You know, I still feel like my pet theory that there's a werewolf amongst them in addition to the ghoul has merit...but they're emphasizing so hard on ghoul powers that it's starting to make me think I'm wrong.
I personally agree with Airier that dr waters is the ghoul. She could just be trying to say it’s a vampire to throw off the scent. I also believe that there is in fact a werewolf running around and is the one who tore up Fatigue, both to protect themselves and for revenge.
@@quynlanvuorensyrja5484 I still don't think she'd be the ghoul because she has a key to the archives. She could access them at any time and get away with it. Ergo, the documents should already be gone, shouldn't they?
I said this on a video, but I think 2024 is _the_ year Alfa's channel has had the most posts. Also check out State of the Ogre #2 for an update on how they are going forward with the series. Also a new series in the works.
Sorcery and actual magic are different. Actual magic REQUIRES you to be an awakened mage to do at all. Sorcery can be done by anybody who knows how to do it
"Our " is a common turn of phrase. Not a hint that she is in cahoots with the ghoul or a hint that there is another ghoul. Also, she literally said she read D's notes. Why is her knowing this stuff at all suspicious?
On top of that she’s a senior member of the arcana and literally mentioned to be Ockham’s second, meaning it would be rather weird if she didn’t know all this.
27:15 Not classism. Generationalism. Each generation is both less experienced and possess a less potent blood than the one before. So not only does it require a lot of time and effort to develop your discipline to the best they can be, it's even worse because depeding on your generation you could go from a maximum of 1,2 dots as a thin blood or a ghoul to 5 dots from 13th to 8th generation and after that, each generation adds a dot, up until the fatidic 9 dot. 10 dots is impossible. It's world changing. One needs to understand how exponential that increase is to understand the true appeal of diablerie.
Not gonna lie. I'd watch the guy and Kevin detective spin-off. It's the straight man that's actully a drugy and kinda crazy but his it and Kevin is actually way more reasonable then he looks.
My theory is still the one maid is the ghoul the other is a werewolf. Werewolves have low willpower and she used that to dominate her into doing the killing.
lost in the moment of markus taking doors advice and trying to put faith in the family; big D admitting he made a mistake. he was about to try walking back and apologizing for words made in anger and fear. something we as the audience KNOW he doesnt mean because he told kitten the truth about it. we know big d believes markus has the potential to be the greatest of all his family. meaning we know that saying he was markus's superior in every way was a heat of the moment mistake.
The regents is of the seven generation this means her ghouls can use disciplines up to three dots which is average as starting characters are locked between 1 to 5 dot powers, unless they lower their generation.

Sorry for comenting a gildedguy type comment in a video that isn't about him but I just want to make a request. My request is that you watch the video of violet and gildedguy before the final one of his story. The video is not a fight and neither is in UA-cam. (Is in his patreon but you can watch it there free of charge) Is more of a nice animation of him and the oc of a girl who is her girlfriend. And this animation which is in his patreon is more like a proposition animation that Michael made for her (rebonkulous) to ask her to marry him ( she said yes 🥹) But yeah the animation isn't part of the story or anything. Just another cool and fun gildedguy animation that a lot of us enjoyed, it isn't necessary for you to see cause i don't even know if you can completely. (The song he used is bang bang and idk if it has copyright and maybe that's why he putted in patreon only) But yeah apart from that video theres also violet vs dummy. This one is different cause it actually has to do with the story i believe. But i think the next gildedguy story is more important to watch first so you can see the violet vs dummy after you finish story 8. Annyways it was just that as a little coment. You are free to react whatever you want of course. Just thought it would be cool for you to see that animation as something else from his normal work.
20:15 i think shes just on drugs like how D referenced her many benders. there is 2 much more likely culprits for supernatural baddies if you remember that hunter ignorance video. expand your horizons

Shit, Kevin has serious power if he can command someone to ignore him so hard that they confess to being a serial killer.
He's canonically a 9th gen, which puts him above pyotr post-diablerie, though pyotr would probably still be on par with him due to experience. This is pretty middling by vampire standards if I remember correctly, so he's probably a one-trick-pony to have such power. Still impressive.
That just means he’s had a lot of time to refine the ability.
well hes a mighty vampire wizard
*_Great and Mighty Vampire Wizard._* He has done enough to warrant the full and proper use of his title.
I read somewhere that Kevin is basically the most powerful(generation) vampire you could make as a player.
"Do vampires have....laser heat-vision?" "Only if they are sufficiently fascinated with the Carpathian mountain range!"- reference to the Elemental Magics of Koldunic Sorcery used by Vampries around that region, I think.
Laser heat vision is nothing. A high level master can produce volcanic eruptions!
"Oh those are people"

Airier does that quite a lot.
Waters *is* Occam's 2IC & also read D's work before burning it, so it shouldn't be surprising that she knows clan names at the least.
"-obfuscate reality itself from the victim's mind.", said while a vampire holding a broken mirror is shown. Malkavians are a type of vampire with a power most accurately described as Contagious Insanity.
God that stage in VtM:B made my head hurt from the sheer visual impact of it all. Malkavians are truly the batshit insane people of the vampire clans.

Simple, the arcanum was aware of the family's codenames for vampire clans, she just doesn't think in those terms so she went to use the actual name.
Big D gave an uncensored version of his notes to the higher ups.
She's a senior member of the Arcanum, so obviously she has some more advanced knowledge on the subject of vampires, probably from D himself. As for why she would mention the Tremere? Well, Dominate and Thaumaturgy are both Disciplines that belong to them, so it makes sense for her to bring the name up, especially if she's figured out that D's informant was a Tremere and that their Ghoul infiltrator was sent by the local Regent, which the Arcanum may or may not already know about.
She outright states she read D's notes before burning them. She knows information that D refuses to share with the rest of the class.
55:20 "Oh, a blooper" There was actually a blooper/outtake in 'Boy Story' that you accidentally skipped. Also, good vid I enjoyd your reaction :):)
