[OOC] oWoD thoughts.

Being that my fav venue isn't hard resetting for three years (UGH!), if my Domain goes for some oWoD vampire, I'm going to give it a shot

the system's really easy, hon. In some ways *too* simple, but that was always fine for me since I focus more on story than rules. What's beautiful about is the setting, structure and definition.

I think we're likely to go Cam/Anarch here, so I suppose we won't have much excuse for character ties, which is too bad. :P

Simple System

The bidding traits system is incredibly simple. Not near as complex as Requiem. Get the larp books and you can have the hang of the mechanics in a night.

Lasombra are combat cheese, and Power and the Inner Voice is joy incarnate. A Lasombra would be my choice, honestly, for a Sabbat venue. This said, I know about zip about the Tzim ... I think they get wooj or something, but I really have not the faintest idea if they're awesome or no.

I love Sabbat, though. It's good times.

Of the oWoD possibilities I'm way more inclined to play Sabbat than I am Cam/Anarch/Indy at the moment. The idea of a Sabbat game with a 3 year timeline puts you right on the edge of the final battle that the sect has been preparing for since it started. Gehenna looms. Time to soldier up against the ancients.

I'm with you on the whole not knowing the system thing. before 2006 I had done a couple TT games, but otherwise hadn't done any RP. So I learned Nwod by being tossed into the deep end. I figure I'll probably learn owod the same way. And I've decided to work up two concepts - one from cam and one for sabbat. Maybe I'll get to play them both in different places? I dunno. But that way I have choice no matter what comes down the pipe.

Right now it's a setite concept that's just disgusting. LOL and an Old World Brujah type that's less so.
