My chantry mate is learning POTENCE!!!high_on_celeryMarch 16 2004, 13:07:25 UTC
My Lord, you read correctly. I am shocked to say one of the members of my chantry is learning potence! Now, from what I've always understood, we are a mystical clan and devote our time to the study of magical and thaumaturgical phenomenon. I decided to comfront him as soon as I heard this rumor with the possibility of resetting his priorities. When so comfronted, he turned away and muttered something about causing "two aggs with burning hands." This confused me. I suspected Malkavian monkey-wrenching. So I got together with some of our better mind manipulators and have found no sign of meddling! We have tried everything known. Tell us O'Lord, what demons plague him?

Bland ambition is not a demon, but rather a malady that plagues those lacking creativity. OOOH, so he has Potence. How utterly fright inducing. The mind is still a more insidious weapon so have no fear. And if he doesn't snap into line, I strongly suggest for your chantry to make him the clans local contact with the Ravnos. Those kids have a little something called Horrid Reality that'll make his Potence a rather impotent weapon.
Le Pasion d'Saulotpublix120March 31 2004, 10:47:58 UTC
Darkest Master,
Have you seen The Passion of the Christ? I found it most awe inspiring. But I wonder...is there a story of one of our own kine that shows the same kind of suffering and self sacrifice. Surely, there are some devout kindred out there that may see the story of Saulot as our own greatest tragedy.

Ingrate!!!
If i could vomit violent torrents of blood over the internet, your undeserving little face would be on the receiving end of the worst crimson slapping of your unlife. How dare you bring up that name in the place of my worship?
Saulot is no tragedy, he was a lazy git. Sure, our elders sleep now, but that is after centuries of laboring over the survival of our kine. The one eyed fool's catnap served as nothing more than a lesson to the rest of them. We're new, we're better and if they should find themselves a little tired, then we'll gladly put them to rest. Speaking of which, where is the Brujah elder these days?
As for the film, I only suggest it as aid to those who are having difficulty sending themselves into torpor.
Same Old Song and Dancepublix120May 1 2004, 09:24:45 UTC
My roommate has the annoying habit of playing the same album over and over again. It is driving me nuts! I can't hardly read a paragraph of "Hop on Saulot" without ticking away the moments that make up a dull day...damn it without hearing or saying lyrics from the songs! I am utterly tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain, uh I mean this repetitive noise! I always enjoy being home and I like to be here when I can; it's good to warn my bones beside the fire. However, I cannot stand this irritation any longer! How can I solve this problem and please don't give me that goody good bullshit! How do I get this loony on the path to tranquility?

Mr. Void,
There's no need to despair, no need to travel to the dark side of the moon on this one. I suggest you purchase a stereo yourself. Now set it up on the opposite side of the room from his/her stereo. Music selection is important here. You want something sweet and saccharine to savage his downbeat obsessions. I suggest Disney Silly Songs: 20 Simply Super Singable Silly Songs. The sound of "Mairzy Doats" alone should be enough to cause Dementation like madness in your chantrymate.
Dear Ancient Dark One, recently one of the Elders in my chantry has taken a liking to and claims to be "in lo.." I mean "LoooOOOo..." Ah. So. I cannot type it out either. Intresting. Undoubtedly, my Supremacy, your vast intellect understands to which "L" word I refer. He claims it so proudly and merrily. What could be worse? His affections are geared towards a GANGREL! I understand it could be worse, it could be a Toreador or Nosferatu. But a Gangrel? Lord Tremere, what should we do?
A Breach of the Masquerade?high_on_celeryMay 7 2004, 20:10:20 UTC
Dear Tremere, it has come to my attention that it has recently become fashionable for young vampires to dress like young mortals that dress like vampires. If our young vampires dress like young mortals that dress like vampires and more ignorant mortals suspect that our young vampires that dress like young mortals that dress like vampires are indeed vampires because they dress like vampires, not due to them actually being vampires, but because they are young vampires that dress like young mortals that dress like vampires that....
Dear Tremere, What best method is there for dealing with the higher powers of Dementation?
Re: A Breach of the Masquerade?tremereunlivingMay 11 2004, 09:17:07 UTC
A well fortified mind is the key here. When we spend our times immersed in texts and scrolls, once nust also keep in mind that there is other Arcana to be digested. Remember, we were once our kine, study them, their history, their present. If rituals and blood magics are the bulk of what's on your mind, then one must look into what's holding the building together. Amusing fluff like "Hop on Saulot", Malkav's "My Sire Was A Top Hat In Leather Sandal Times" or Brujah's "Fists of Meaning" will only leave you empty. Turn on the TV, watch the CNN, go to a mall at night and watch the kids in the Hot Topic. These larvescent humans know nothing of goth and could rarely be mistaken for us, despite their pale and wan posturing. The unlife is obvious from how worn we all look compared to them. While the goth kids queue up to their McDonald's and order their happy meals, a famished Nosferatu will always be outside waiting near the dumpster, ready for a pimply teenaged snack. We are decay, the sundering of the light. These kids are only in it for
