Can you do "fleshcraft." When I played Hunter the Reckoning it didn't really explain that.
Obfuscating never made more sense...
I have been in much battle. I wish I could say I haven't. ✌️
They die off lol lol
Protein: the ability to turn blood into whey to get swole
Celery: the ability to be healthy and have strong bones so you won't get hurt
Fortydudes: the ability to call forty dudes. That's a lot of bros to have your back
😂😂😂
What is the name of this clan?

@@NomadFierce is it possible to learn this power?
Also you forgot about the Tzimisce weakness they cannot sleep in a regular bed. They must sleep with a dirt of where they were first created. Meaning they have to carry their soil with them constantly. Or else they'll be weakened.
I mean… They can sleep in a normal bed. They just have to have a certain amount of dirt from their birthplace.

@@AggressiveLemur Le sigh. 5th edition should’ve been a different title…
That's no longer true
@@moonlight2870 Because advancing the timeline required changing ancient truths and the crunch of the game…
Just to answer anybody wondering:
YES, Dracula is a Tzimisce. And he still has Renfield!
Yes officially, but I think that's stupid.
If anything, Dracula is sooo a Gangrel.
@@Zeithri Gangrel is running wild in the forest that a Tzimisce owns.
Dracula the Lord of a castle and surrounding lands (and people living there) is and always was a Tzimisce.
@@Zeithri He's Tzimisce, have you not heard what Beckett said about him?
@@Zeithri Gangrel were twisted by the Tzimisce. And Gangrel don't sit in castles, brooding over maintaining control of their territory.
@@Zeithri
Tzimisce is obviously the best fit for him for a couple reasons.
1. There is a fine distinction between the cenobite-style body horror Tzimisce of modern times, and the Lords of the Old Clan. The Old Clan Tzimisce really don't concern themselves with the body modification aspect of Vicissitude as they consider it a "virus" passed on by the Eldest to control their minds. Instead, they use animalism and dominate to control their domains. Depending on the edition, Vicissitude is just a corrupted form of Protean anyway, so the abilities and charareristic of the Old Clan Tzimisce best represent Dracula from the books and movies.
2. The clan curse of clan Tzimisce was literally taken from the novel. In the novel, Dracula sleeps in coffins/crates full of soil from his homeland to retain his power. This weakness firmly places him as a Tzimisce.
3. Tzimisce were the Dominant clan in the Old Country/Carpathians, and given that Dracula himself is from Romania it makes sense that of all the clans Vlad Tepes would be a Tzimisce. That said, Dracula is an anamoly as far as vampires go since he is extremely low generation for his age and possesses more powerful than most Methuselahs. Dracula is special even compared to other vampires despite his Tzimisce roots.
SchreckNet is named after Max Schreck, the actor who played Count Orlok in Nosferatu.
Wrong. ShrekNet is named after the 2000's hit movue Shrek.
Schreck literally just means horror/fright or phobia but in German. They use german word rotschreck for "red fear" that is the rage induced by sunlight to vampires so do you happen to have a source for this info, as it sounds plausible but could just be coincidence.
@@graysaltine6035 IIRC it's in the Revised Nosferatu clan book.
@@REZIX233 OK thanks. All my literature is from the 90s lol.
I'm only a few minutes in, and you're telling me those gangly fish-bait lookin Nosferatu are the most Tech Savvy of the Clans?
I'm impressed, that's actually really neat world-building. Props to WWP
SchreckNet's primary purpose remains unspoken among the Nosferatu. Legend has it that their Eldest hates his vampiric offspring and wants them all dead. To that end, he sired the Niktuku; Obscenely powerful creatures fiercely loyal to their master with only one goal: eradicate the Nosferatu. More learned Nosferatu use SchreckNet to communicate rumors of the movements of the Niktuku usually in code and innuendo since mentioning them by name is a taboo.
Can You bring US The biography of Absimilard, father of Nosferatu clan? Or The Antediluvian Tzimisce?
@@Tezcatlipoca2000 i believe you must read lore of the third edition to catch upon that, but i think that some stuff maybe Is in the book of Nod
It's the first time I'm learning about Vampire The Masquerade, the game lore is very interesting.
Nosferatu reminds me of Dimir (Magic The Gathering, MTG).
Dimir is a guild that was considered a myth, something similar to the cucuy/coco.
It specializes in secrets, stealth, information, assasins, informants, vampires, shapeshifters, imposters, horrors, rumors, misinformation, curses, etc.
Dimir believes information is power, it has a complex web for hiding, obtaining, manipulating, stealing and destroying information.
Its most important places are underground. Some members spend a lot of time underground, in secret places.
Nobody knows what Dimir wants, its members are only allowed to know information that is needed for executing the mission.
Nobody knows what its le ader wants. lt was founded by Szadek, a vampire that had more than 10000 years old when he died (but his spirit wasn't destroyed). After Szadek died, Lazav became the guildmaster, Lazav is a mastermind and a great shapeshifter, nobody knows his real form nor his history.
Some people believe Lazav is planning to destroy Niv-Mizzet, the dragon who founded Izzet.
On the other hand, Nosferatu''s love for technology reminds me of Izzet, another guild of MTG. It specializes in technology, experiments...but they prefer wild experiments, explosions and dying when they are doing experiments.
@@DuskSunDawn The bio of Antediluvian Nosferatu, name Absimilard, is incredible twisted and amazing. Search it in some wiki, You Will love it
One of the best things about the Nosferatu is that their position as outsiders leads to sect not mattering so much to them. In The Warrens (The communal living space of the Nosferatu under any given city) there is no sect and that's one way the Nosferatu stay so well informed of the movements of other Kindred/Cainintes
The Main thing I really like about The Nosferatu, is their complete loyalty to each other. Others will only go so far.
..which is a shame on them (other clans).
I keep being shown this universe and every time I'm like "So Nosferatu have no weakness?"
@@Abornarazine Well, besides the horrific appearance that makes it impossible for them to fit into regular society, yeah pretty much
@@SnowFoxDiver
Eh invest a bit of time on fashion. Ravers wear masks and goggles all the time nobody complains. Besides you got the Obfuscate for most issues. Sure your natural charisma tanks but honestly, people only talking to me when they really need to sounds wonderful.
Thinbloods are usually 14th or 15th generation. So far removed from Caine that they have little to no power in any disciplines. They can be the sired by a vampire from any of the other clans but because they don't show the characteristic traits they are rejected by the other clans. The Thinbloods " thin blood" comes with several perks though. They can usually walk around in sunlight and lead normal lives (or unlives if you prefer) and while they don't usually have any immediate inclination towards disciplines they are able to learn disciplines from other clans easier than a non-thinblood. I think this likely has to do with them being so far removed from the 3rd gen that they aren't affected by the curse that Caine put on the clan founders so they aren't restricted in their potential.
It would be cool if you made a video on the Methuselahs (4th & 5th gen). While the Antediluvians (3rd gen) were the original clan founders, it was the Methuselahs who really defined what each clan was. And after the Antediluvians went to sleep/were locked away, the Methuselah's became the kindred that manipulate the vampire world from the shadows. They never directly cause events to occur, like the founding of the Camarilla, Sabbat, & Anarchs, but the actions they take and order their children to take, often lead to great change or significant events in Kindred history.
I mean, there’s one in vtmb 1 that is clearly malkavian. She can see various visions
9:37 Ah the Banu Haqim. Personally my favorite story of theirs came in the late 90s when one of their Methusulahs, ur-Shulgi, Haqim's second childer who was embraced some 10,000 years BCE woke up and returned to the Mountain aka Alamut the home of the clan. The clan he had left behind when he went into torpor was nothing like the clan he awoke to: so many of the clan had forgotten their purpose and history, no longer the Hunters of Cainites and Shepards of Men they were meant to be.
As such he confronted the current leader of the clan in Haqim's absence, Jamal who tried to convince ur-Shulgi that their time as hunters of their own kind was over and also wanted to convert him to Islam. ur-Shulgi took exception to that. He killed Jamal or as he put it, "I sent him to meet his young god."
He then sent a call through the blood for all of Haqim's children to return to the Mountain for judgment. So anyway that's the story of how many Banu Haquim sought asylum in the Camarilla.
It's also worth mentioning that ur-Shulgi is perhaps the most powerful blood sorcerer in the world and broke a blood curse the Tremere clan put on his clan that lasted for about 5 centuries the day he found out about it after he woke up.
(I'm so sorry for posting what will inevitably be so many comments)
Very cool story!
Why are you sorry for posting that ? I was an interesting comment.
Fun fact, Shulgi was a historical king (or queen not sure) of the city of Ur
isn't ur-Shulgi also an infernalist?
@@marciocouto3543 that is hearsay and we will not discuss this. Ur-shulgi is loyal to Haqim and that is final. ;3
My heart says gaze into the broken mirror and giggle, my brain screams TURN THEM INTO FLESH PUPPETS!
The voice of the actress in the toreador trailer gives me the chills every time. Such an awesome tone. My favorite clan has always been the Lasombra, since they were introduced in 1996.
11:28 technically true due to magic changing the nature of their blood but they are in fact descended from the Tzimisce clan since that was the clan of the vampire Tremere and his circle captured and used in their arcane shenanigans.
Kindred wasn't really "loosely based". It was definitely meant to be fully based on the white wolf property. But people who make TV and movies rarely respect lore in games. They will always change things, whether or not it's necessary. It's kind of an ego thing.
In K:TE, they changed brujah into mafia type villains, and gangrel into biker punks. But other than that, they actually got a lot right.
It was also mostly based on 1st edition, same as the Bloodlines was based at 3rd edition, which has several differences
I could see some groups of Brujah being mafia and gangrel being bikers though.
@@Akeche Makes sense to me mafia members usually see themselves as virtuous in a way fighting for the little guy. You see this in their control of workers unions in real life so it makes sense the Brujah would use their presence to form a crime organization to fight against the powers that be.
I loved that show and was a kid then. Back then I definitely wanted to be Gangrel!
@@Akeche Yeah no. The one's that really "look" like the mob is Clan Giovanni. I haven't played in years so my understanding is that they are a dead clan now (or some such which is a shame since they were really cool)
I like Burjah and City Gangrels, which trade Animalism and Fortitude for Celerity and Obfuscate while keeping Protean.
City Gangrel sounds good... for a true loner, as in "yes i don't like people and i don't like animals either. Leave me alone"
@@gendoruwo6322 funny you say that. City Gangrel are a Sabbat bloodline. And Sabbat is a very social sect. Basic unit of the Sabbat is a pack which has roles and is bonded by a recurring ritual that induces loyalty between the pack members.
Side note, for a deep DEEP lore dive: There's WAAAY more than 14 playable clans in the tabletop RPG, but many of them are very obscure. And Vampires of the setting, being paranoid in the extreme, hide themselves and their true affiliations from each other as a matter of policy.
Just two words.... Clan Giovanni
@@davidmiller9485 Daughters of Cacophany. Nagaraja. True Brujah. All the Kindred of the Ebony Kingdoms. The Kuei-Jin. The Salubri. The Baali. The Assamites are actually 3 closely-related clans that share history and use each other to hide from outsiders. There's a second clan of Gangrel nobody knows about, hidden beneath the waves. There's a second clan of super-Nosferatu nobody ever sees who hate and hunt nossies.
depends what you consider a clan. If it's only Cain's descendants or other "vampire' like creatures.
@@anonimus370 No, I mean one of the translations of the book of Nod names 31 clans, not 13. And there are other, lesser-known clans. Some descended from second-gen progenitors or 3rd gens that have been forgotten. Some used to be members of existing clans but found ways to break-ties and start their own. (Look up the Sisters of Cacophany)
Man this brings back memories. I used to LARP Nos all the time with high level obfuscate lol. We had a good group back then too. About 15 to 20 of us. I thought Bruha could also turn into a type of wolf. Not a werewolf but close and they could develop more wolf like look to them. I could totally wrong since this was 20+ yrs ago lol. Thanks for the video and the stroll down memory lane.
You’re thinking Gangrel im pretty sure. They have a more Wolflike “War form”
@@void944Ah ok. I knew its been decades but thanks for the clarification.
Nope. Brujah didn't have Protean. You'd be thinking of the Gangrel--they were the ones who could shape-shift into animals when they had the Discipline at high enough levels. Brujah had Celerity (speed), Potence (strength), and Presence (get 'em to like ya).
@@DrachenGothik666 Gotcha. It's been a couple decades lol but thanks for clarifying.
@@encognitusmaximus7598 No worries. I played Nosferatu, Gangrel and Brujah a lot in the multiple LARPs I was involved in over the near-20 years they ran before I moved out of the country. I miss it. It was a lot of fun.😁
I got Bloodlines they day it launched sure it was buggy... but the characters, freedom of choice, and atmosphere where way better than many game at the time, it will remain of my favorites of all time!
I have always liked my vamps monstrous and bestial, so Gangrel, Nosferatu, and Tzimisce have always been my favorite out the 13 clans.
When i played Bloodlines i went with Gangrel but after few years i noticed i really fit better with a Tzimisce(at least in the older version as i did not fully read this new version). Pity there was never a playable Tzimisce in games.
@@unityofvitality-5875 It's really buggy, really buggy and badly made. I honest to god would recommend a bunch of other mods for vtmb before antitribu even comes to mind.
@@unityofvitality-5875 Yeah, the only reason I actually played it. I really wished another team implemented tzimisces into their mods 😭
@@xxXXRAPXXxx I sure you hope you haven't read about V5 Tzimisce since, mate...
@@Who-dg9yj No i did not. I know some things are questionable like adding dominate (why need blood powers when you can use primal fear?) that part about having a charge instead of needing dirt is better as it gives you more room to roleplay (possibly). Anyway if they fucked them up its nothing new as everything nowadays goes to shit.
its such a shame that v5 removed all of the unique disciplines. combining thaumaturgy (tremere sorcery) and quietus(banu hakim sorcerer) into blood sorcerery, and combining obtenebration (lasombra shadow sorcery) with necromancy (hecata ghost magic) took away a lot of the clan individuality.
and then theres the clans like the malkavians, tzimisce, and ministry who had their unique disciplines (dementation, viscisitude, and serpentis respectively) turned into fucking amalgams.
Also gotta love the amalgam disciplines, forcing some Clans to drop disciplines extreme important to them
Rip Ravnos having Animalism, Fortitude and Chemistry, now its Animalism, Obfuscate and Precenece.
Which if they are linking Necromancy and Obtenebration thanks to them both being linked to Oblivion (Which makes even less sense if you know Wraith lore to know that the Shadowlands/underworld and the Abyss/Labyrinth/Hell are in very very different areas) then Chiemistry being the manipulation of the shared illusion that Kine precieve should still very well make it its own discipline still. Especially as it isn't mental manipulation like either Obfuscate or Precenece, as its later Elder powers show its just straight up Reality Manipulation.
It's true that v5 nerfed many clans to the ground and even removed some but v20 had many poorly designed disciplines . Lots of overlap too.
@@danathorGR The overlap is intentional, since you know, you're going to be restricted to at best 3-5 disciplines on a Player character, and can't access every power on that discipline unless you spend the extra XP instead of advancing a dot. Poorly designed powers is something V5 does even worse
@@ssjjshawn Hard disagree mechanically V20 was the worse, leaving powers so open they were always different for every ST, V5 Made them solid, as for disciplines - disciplines don't make a character or clan unique.
I agree. Bring them back!
I really hate what they did with the Hecata. They just threw away a really rich and diverse group of clans and bloodlines for the sake of simplicity. It even includes bloodlines like the Nagaraja, a mysterious group of vampires who were allegedly former members of the Chakravanti Tradition of Magi who became vampires after spending too long in the Underworld who had to literally eat human flesh to survive as vampires.
Well to be fair if I understand correctly not every single member of those clans and bloodlines joined the Hecata so you CAN still play them how they were originally, and personally I think the idea of a Clan where some of them are kinda artificially related to the others kinda like stitched together cloth but with blood ties
Hecata Is lazy AF, and just for the sake of simplicity
@@scootinkermie while true it is easy enough to play one of the Giovanni who will more often refer to himself as giovanni or member of the familly over being Hecata
@@wilfred8391 Yeah which would be valid since Bloodlines sometimes don't even claim the Clan they descend from which is no different
Hecata is the best thing to happen, before that all you really had as a true necromancer clan was the Giovanni, the rest were obsolete as bloodlines or extinct.
So many cool disciplines were lost in 5e. Chimestry, Dementation, Vicissitude, Quietus and Serpentis etc. So sad
Most of them have been reintroduced in the V5 Companion release, when they brought back more clans.
I grew up playing this game. When I saw they were doing a new edition couldn't wait to check it out. It's probably just my nostalgia but it doesn't compare at all. I was let down by it. Obviously you can tell from my user name lol.
The 2nd game isnt out yet, just the BR. Bloodlines 2 has been delayed and might be in dev hell unfortunately.
@@anon2752 I am Sorry I was taking about the Pen and Paper edition, not the video game. Should have made that more clear.
The Discipline of Tzimisce (pronounced Ze-Meet-See) is called "Vicissitude" (pronounced Veh-sis-e-tood). Fleshcrafting is a single power included within Vicissitude. They can also change things like their bloods chemical composition (turning their blood to a substance similar to liquid napalm or acid), removing their own limbs or grafting extra limbs to others or themselves, giving those limbs eyes or mouths, severing those limbs from themselves and giving them wills of their own, or even transforming into giant mutant vampire bats.
Also fun fact; the word Vicissitude literally means "extreme change in something" (typically in ones luck)
¹😊
The Warhammer Fantasy Vampires and different bloodlines could be an interesting topic
Thumbs up. I wanna see that too.
I love that you are doing more vampires masquerade. I really enjoyed this video should do a separate video for each clan.
Oh damn I remember commenting asking if you could cover VTM, but didn't realize you had! Great video! VTM is one of my favorite TTRPG settings, and I love their take on vampires.
Personally, my favorite Clan has always been Brujah. Mainly because they're completely unique in aesthetic. They lean neither into the more monstrous, animalistic side of vampires, nor the cunning, seductive. They're completely their own thing.
My favorites are Lasombra, Malkavian, Toreador. I'd also like to play as a Caitiff :D
This explains the alfabusa current lore so much lol love it I’ll probably play the game too
I've been a Brujah man since The Day I played Redemption. And even though I dabble as a Ventrue every now and then, I always ALWAYS help The Bru succeed.. it's in My Blood.
i met my wife through VTM it will always have a special place in my heart.
I have played many clans in my days but have come to realize i am more Brujah than anything else. loved this presentation.
I need to give Nosferatu a try in VTM:B. I first played as a Tremere to see what vanilla was like, then had a blast as Malkavian.
Vampire The Masquerade's Haunted Hotel Level is one of the best levels I have ever played. Very spooky.
As the Toad Prince of New Orleans once upon a time, I am firmly Clan Nosferatu
I forgot how bad the V5 disciplines were lol
I love your videos about video game vamps. Also you should do a video of the vampires from Vampyr or the Werewolves from Werewolf the Apocalypse Earth Blood please.
The thirst always wins the quick movement of the Hakim reminds me of the bleach ability flash step where mouvement quickens and that it appears to have teleported at once seems handy when wanting to make a quick escape or run down an enemy
i look forward to your videos every single week!
Bloodlines, my favorite RPG and my top 3 favorite games of all time.
Man, I love this series so much🤟🏻I did enjoy Brujah and Gangrel the most but also enjoyed some of the other clans and special creatures. Lore diveee!
I wish i can choose the lasombra clan in vampire masquerade bloodlines 2
Hey I believe some Clans are gonna be added as DLC
I didn't think about that! You're right! As part of the Camarilla, would be right to have the option to make a Lasombra character.
Dude I am so glad that you started making videos about vampire the masquerade. I ve always wanted to know about this lore since I had no idea and I am so happy that I learn all this from you :)
For a future video I would recommend you to check a video game called "Vampyr". Released in 2018.It has a very interesting story and cool species and types of vampires
I think that you will like it
Actually, Vampyr sucks both in gameplay and plot. The types of vampires and lore make absolutely no sense at all!!!!
@@anaemiliaalmeida7238 First of all if you don't like the game it's OK. Not everyone has the same taste. Second the lore is quite simple actually. If you don't understand it then it is your problem.
@@georgefv1959 ????? he didn't say anything about it being complex nor not understanding it. He was just saying that it had holes you drive a tank through... and he's not wrong.
Glad more people could get into the series! It's a personal favorite of mine
Should totally do a video on Jamie Foxx's Day Shift movie
I’d hope he does a video on dayshift vampires
Yeah Day Shift was surprisingly good, and those vampires were awesome.
We have Vampire and Werewolf series here in Philippines aired long ago, it has three seasons, prequel is Lobo, sequelled by Imortal, then sequel La luna sangre, search it and learn, I hope Lobo and Imortal have english dub now because La Luna Sangre have english dub because it reaches out the foreign media.
Btw 5th Ed's idea to combine powers and clans together is a massive misstep imho. They did Tzimisce dirty.
And Tremere. Tzimitzse and Tremere disciplines should stay unique.
Wow, you actually made it! Awesome man! 🤘
Can you do a video on the vampires of legacy of kain?
This video is amazing. I have a very cool idea for you. You should do the garou from the world of darkness, but each tribe should get their own video. You could also do the fera as well but that would take a few weeks of research
Gangrel 🤘🏾 Thanks for yet another great video!
no idea how this ended up on my feed.. but i loved it, i used to play the world of darkness like 30 years ago in the 90s. this was like a trip back to highschool
Jon DiMaggio, who you may recognize from *literally anything that required a voice actor at some point.*
He's in the same family as Troy Baker, Nolan North and Steve Blum.
thin bloods are Generation 14 and upwards😅
there are very few gen 15 and 16 thin bloods as most of them have blood too weak and dilute to embrace another
generation 200 upwards are real... they are the emo goths.
@@gendoruwo6322 Bwahahaaa. Emo and Goth are two different genres, mate, putting 'em together like that is cute. Doesn't stop an Emo fan from liking Goth stuff, or a Goth fan from liking Emo stuff, though. They just don't usually occur together, from what I've seen. Signed, an old Goth who's been around since close to the beginning of the Goth genre.🖤
my hand down favorite character i played in VTM was my max humanity Malkavian with schizophrenia. he could only feed on people who let him of their own free will and could not feed on anything that would say it was ok. One game he was almost out of blood and that stress along with some game stresses led to a very interesting conversation with a pack of dogs.
Hey man i love all your videos i usually watch them on my playstation which makes it hard to comment lol but i was wondering if you can do a video on the vampires on the "Legacy of Kain" video games? Thats one that you havent yet featured for id love to see your breakdown on those vampires
I second that
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees
Elder Scrolls vampires. They have some unique characteristics within the lore of the different types of vampires.
Yep, this was actually the selling point of Skyrim for me. At the time, no other rpg was giving me that option of getting my character turned into a vampire. It was the very first objective when I got the game... then later the Dawnguard DLC made it even better with a skill-tree and the vampire lord/monster transformation ability.
I'd definitely be Lasombra or Tzimisce. Lasombra can summon objects, clone of themselves or even creatures out of the shadows/darkness of Oblivion...use it to teleport (disappear in 1 shadow and re-appear from another one elsewhere), or actually become a shadow which is immune to all damage except sunlight and fire.
Tzimisce can reshape themselves to look like nearly anything; the typical result is like something from one of the Hellraiser films.
Yeah, but unless your in the Sabbat, everybody from the Camarilla, Anarchs and other factions gonna hate and/or fear you more than usual.
No wait actually you'll still be hated and feared In the Sabbat anyways..
@@titel9870 in recent lore, the Camarilla have started to let in defecting lasombra. However, it does come at a steep price on the lasombra's side. Of which i believe is the final death of another lasombra
@@relaxedfish2344 And though I personally haven't heard of Camarilla Tzimisce I have heard of a Sabbat Toreador bloodline with Vissitude (lowkey forgot how to spell it, everything related to The Dragons is hard to spell and or pronounce)
@@relaxedfish2344 actually that depends on the prince, in some cases its just an elder of the sabbat.
To me a vampire is the darkness that casts darkness over darkness so for me it has always been Lasombra, but I also love Hetca clan
So interesting and fascinating 😲 I’m new to the whole VtM thing…. It looks cool
Malkavian is my go to clan 🙇🏽♂️🧛🏽🦇
I got bloodlines as a gift for Christmas. Tereme are good for beginners imo... Or people who perfer to be the mage in an mmo. my favorite personally by the sound of em is the Ban Hajium. They're basically a nosferatu and tremere combined.
Gangrel
Actually Tzimisce are supposed to be the closest to Dracula.
Especially considering in VTM Dracula actually exists and is Tzimisce (and a badass one at that.)
There are 2 two Nosferatu subcategories, the one you describe and their darker part, the Nictuku.
Most Nosferatu are terrible afraid of them, because they also hunt them down.
Malkavians also have an alternative discipline to Dominate, Dementation,.
Causing madness and mental illness like effects in others or themselves.
(Like regulation agitation.)
There are a lot more subclans like the sirens or an alternate version of Tzemiske, who use blood sorcery.
I personally would be probably Malkavian.
Wouldn't be too much of a change either.
Sunlight allergy and multiple psychological disorders.
I only ever played Bloodlines, not the tabletop game. Malkavian was fun for one playthrough. Then you knew the gags, so less special later. Tremere was probably my favorite clan.
Malkavian and Tremere got to be my two favs
I mean this as a compliment.. I always get the best sleep when Lollins posts 🖤🧛🏻♀️
I was waiting patiently for this video! Could you please do a video on the twilight vampires! Theres a lot to cover.
I've been interested in the Kuei-jin since Bloodlines came out. I actually just hopped on youtube to look up a video about them when I found this one! Great video, btw!! :)
Greatest Malkavian line ever "I can slick my insides with blood so you can thrust against my corpse"
Tzimisce: "That's...not how a transformation works!!" O_O
I remember when my gaming friends first suggested playing VtM, I thought the game was for LARPers/Goths only, but after one session I was hooked.
there are major things missing though, tzimices have vicissitude and malkavians have dementation
I played the previous Bloodlines game and also have the old RPG manuals. And there are certain clans that were not there before, others that are missing or that apparently changed their name. For example, the Assamite clan, an independent clan originating from the east or middle east, descendants of Haqim, which from what I can now assume are called the Banu Haqim. The Giovanni clan, originally a bloodline until Augustus Giovanni diablerized Cappadocius, turning the Giovanni into a clan and the Cappadocians ceasing to exist as such. As you indicate in the video, now the Giovanni are called Hecata. Another independent clan that changed its name is the Followers of Seth, which as you say, are now called The Ministry. And finally, a clan that seemed extinct, the Salubri clan, since its leader, Saulot, had been diablerized by the leader of the Tremere. It would be interesting to know why these clans changed their names and why the Salubri reappeared as a clan.
The Giovanni are not called Hecata. Clan Hecata consists of the remnants of the Giovanni, Cappadocians, Harbinger of Skulls and Lamiae.
Originally the Salubri haven't even been a clan, they've been introduced as a bloodline in Vampire: The Dark Ages. White Wolf is intentionally pretty vague when it comes to metaplot but if you want to know more you'll need to read the RPG books.
I just got this video out of knowhere, and I used to play a lot of vampire requiem and masquerade like 15 years ago or so... bruh, they changed for the worse, there used to be many more cool powers in the disciplines, the assamites by the way were able to do some crazy assassination stuff and stop sound, and tzimisces that were devil worshipers in old requiem had straight up elemental magic.
Loved playing medieval vampire much more than masquerade, best setting, some of the most over the top powers and wars, shame the system is so RP intensive and people moved over to more linear systems like d&d.
By the way, my favorite "combo" might still be available, and that's playing caitif for potence and fortitude for making a truly strong and tanky vampire.
Many you have mentioned traits also appeared in Philippine lore like the “Nosferatu’s” abilities is similar to “tiktik”, tiktik means to spy on, and other entities like aswang and their sub species like 1 of the famous manananggal, and the wakwak (winged vampires look like manbat) wakwak means deep cut or fatal slashes hope they research more about vampires on different countries it would be so cool adding up other talents more than 3 especially the vicious ones!
Wow! That’s quite interesting!
No need
@@mictianfollower2644 no need for what?
Great job as always. I’ve found your videos just a couple of days ago and watched a bunch of them. They are very entertaining!
BTW, could you make a video on Hugh Jackman’s Van Hellsing ? I loved this movie! I don’t know why so many people say it is bad.
Thank you.
malks have the most fun
Someday Cogan will talk about the greatest vampire who ever lived Janos Audron.
Man I can't wait to they make a new rpg that is hopefully gonna be as good as the first one
If you do a video explaining the back story of the society like who the sabbat are and what diabolizs? What that means. Much appreciate it if you made a video like that
Thin-bloods are 14th generation abs beyond. 16th have been recorded, but as of yet, none have sired childer.
Can you do the vampires from Skyrim?
Kindred the embraced tv show, Hellsing series? Awesome videos! 🤔😆
I miss a lot of the old disciplines. Dementation, obtenebration, etc. I don't know why they got rid of them.
Bro please go over Vampyr. The vampire lore in that game is so interesting and the game is very underrated. I loved playing it.
Ravnos was always my favorite. Redemption was my game.
I remember being in middle/high school and tryna pirate Vampire the masquerade on PC, i fuckin love the supernatural
In Vampire The Masquerade the Malkavian were by far my favourite clan. But seeing this video, there are also a lot other interesting looking clans which were not playable in this game.
have you seen the videogame "Vampyr"?? the vampire lore is very similar to this one
and the game is awesome
you could make a video about that one if you want
What are talking about? That game sucks both in gameplay and plot. The types of vampires and lore make absolutely no sense at all!!!!
@@anaemiliaalmeida7238 im ignoring that incorrect statement
@@yacoprinci3260 just like people ignored that shit game
Brujah were a clan that embraced philosophers in ancient Grece and Knights during the middle ages, the clan embraces people with a strong ethical code and those who value freedom and justice. Their curse makes them frenzy when witnessing an injustice making it irresistible for a brujah to dispense some justice on the spot, sometimes causing them to involuntarily break the masquerade by fighting for what they percieve as right. They don't value deception and stealth but straightforward confrontation and are the most vocal clan in vampire politics fighting for kindred freedom and a just cause - Anarchs.
I like the Brujahs backstory but in VTMB I always played as Malkavian or Tremere. Tremere were very OP with blood magic.
There’s a lot of content in vampire the Masquerade, I hope you come back to cover more of it!
0:20 That Caine art lookin' like he's about to go on a killing rampage over a dog and a car.
Also, it should be good to note that you're describing some of their abilities, powers and weakness in the older versions, and not the latest V5 version. A few corrections, about the killing vampires part. It's not really against the Masquerade for vampires to kill other vampires, they've been doing that for thousands of years. It's Diablerie (draining another kindred's vitae and soul) that is taboo in many sects except a few.
I love Kindred The Embraced. I own it on DVD. I want a reboot.
I want this too! I liked that show.
I loved Futurama when it started airing, and then John DiMaggio was probably the first time I recognized a voice actor in another project. I knew Bender was Wakka in Final Fantasy X immediately. I thought he might also be Kimahri, and that turned out to be true, but I found that out only after the internet was a thing..
You should do a thing like this and maby even rank all the video games.
Lasombra were always my favorite dangerous or not shadowmancing is cool af.
Correction: Killing Kindred is not at all against the Masquerade. However depending on the Kindred you are trying to kill(and by kill I mean grant Final Death) you may be making a lot of enemies or too many enemies to deal with. Most Kindred have a lot of connections and their place in the world of darkness, so even in the best of cases at least some people won't like you throwing a spanner in the works by killing a Kindred unless the killing is called upon by most everyone in the community. (Since Kindred usually hate each other, its ironically difficult to kill someone and get away with it since most of them won't agree that the Final Death was necessary)
Killing Kindred in front of mortals is technically a Masquerade violation since Kindred just turn to dust upon death (clearly supernatural) that wouldn't be the primary concern when fighting actual Kindred.
Not against the Masquerade, but still against the Traditions. One of the Traditions of the Camarilla is literally that only the elders/the prince have the authority to kill someone. If you want to kill another Vampire legally in a Camarilla domain you need to have the permission of the Prince.
Thank you for adding the tv show name to the video. going to watch it after this...
I play two Gangrel in my monthly games and a Bruja that shows up periodically in another game
No mention of Malkavian Dementation discipline?
So what's everyone's opinion on the theory that your character in Bloodlines is actually sired by Caine, which explains why you're so powerful even though you're incredibly young for a vampire
IF your sire didnt die in the beginning of the game then it would have been a really amazing plot twist. I also think that other clans and vampires would have instantly knew you are some kind of a badass when they see you. I mean you can feel the power of other older stronger vampires so if you were sired by Caine himself they would know you are not a typical kindred
I thought the prevailing theory was that Caine is granting you additional power as the game goes on, which is something he can do
After a very interesting vid about Kaine and vampire histories was expecting a completely different type of content in here.
Gangrel. My favorite character I ever played was a Gangrel. Never played the video game though. I played the LARP version. So much fun.
