living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:26:36 PM)
awesome so he wakes up around ww2 corr?
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:26:45 PM)
what else?
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:27:08 PM)
Then he spends the next 50 years relearning his ways, the new mortal world, and everything else.
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:27:20 PM)
by his ways I mean the ways of Set and clan.
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:28:07 PM)
okay, from who? and how did the disagreement with sire shape him?
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:29:40 PM)
and maybe most importantly what is his take on the ways of set? does he believe or does he conform for his own reasons?
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:30:41 PM)
Well, in the 50s when he awoke I was thinking that he's find one of the Cults of Typhon in Greece or Rome and would learn from them what he could about Set and society.
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:31:21 PM)
okay so basically he was adopted into their local temple for education
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:31:31 PM)
Right
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:31:42 PM)
In terms of what staked him, I haven't figured that one out yet
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:32:08 PM)
Probably something having to do with Osiris. That'd pretty much irk any Setite.
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:32:25 PM)
you mean it wasn't his sire in their "battle"
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:32:30 PM)
right
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:33:17 PM)
But he won't be vengeful about it or anything. He'd know that 250 years had passed and whoever did is most likely dust by now.
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:33:27 PM)
so you have a backstory mapped out but I'm kinda hazy where it is leading... Who is your character?
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:33:35 PM)
ok not vengeful, regretful?
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:34:08 PM)
He'd be regretful. He'd missed out on an entire age
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:35:41 PM)
But vengeful? There's enough of those concepts running around to drown the chats across the web with
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:35:47 PM)
ok so that tells me somethin right there your character lives for experiences rather than a specific purpose he is a churchgoer so to speak but no a devoted disciple at this point an why would he be if the world can offer him all he needs? even the followers of set have a higher purpose
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:36:32 PM)
so yes he can be fos but I don't see him as a believer for spirual reasons so why believe
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:36:37 PM)
In a way, yeah that's a lot of it.
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:36:49 PM)
no kidding about the vengeful thing
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:37:08 PM)
He'd have the potential to be devoted, but he's had half a mortal lifetime to learn about Set's ways
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:37:20 PM)
...while adjusting to the "information age"
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:39:07 PM)
Now note, I'm not fishing for any special merits of anything that screams "Special Complex"
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:39:39 PM)
no I didn't notice anything like that
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:39:47 PM)
This is just an idea for a character is all. I'm not trying to sell justification for anything banned or restricted. ;)
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:40:00 PM)
I am just trying to figure out how to help you with your concept
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:40:20 PM)
Well, I'm making the character as the guardian/domitor of a PC ghoul
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:40:37 PM)
and, I'll be blunt... Her background isn't giving me a damn thing to work with. *snicker*
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:41:02 PM)
ahh so this is a favor
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:41:13 PM)
Well, in a way yeah and in a way no
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:41:36 PM)
I'm just now getting into Vampire again for the first time since the Clinton Administration.
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:41:45 PM)
what's she got for background? I haven't seen any ghoul sheets yet
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:41:46 PM)
and me and the player go back about a year now.
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:42:10 PM)
She's still working on the background
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:42:22 PM)
ahh well no worries my love for the vampire genre wavers too, Twilight did not do it any favors
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:42:39 PM)
or Guilty Pleasures or True blood for that matter
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:42:48 PM)
Yeah, the hurdle I had to overcome was the lull of Mage and Werewolf. ;)
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:42:53 PM)
but I digress
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:44:27 PM)
Yeah, that's the backbone of the history that I have so far. I was thinking something along the lines of him coming to the states in the 1970s as the Sabbat (and the Serpents of Light) were all but burning Haiti to the ground
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:45:06 PM)
k so haiti then the states?
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:45:18 PM)
yeah, to New Orleans, specifically
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:46:11 PM)
so working against the serpents of light or with or indifferent? why migrate?
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:46:50 PM)
He'd work against the Serpents of Light, and his station in New Orleans would be that of an overseer
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:47:08 PM)
ok
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:47:25 PM)
so we have a what now still need the why
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:47:47 PM)
Yeah, there's where I'm hitting the wall at the moment.
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:48:02 PM)
I'm thinking once this clanbook is read, I'll get inspired to fill in the blanks
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:48:50 PM)
well what you have sounds reaonable enough don't get to hung up the clanbook it is a suggestive resource not a hard and fast guide
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:49:19 PM)
Well, it helps me gleam ideology and perspective from that faction's point of view
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:49:38 PM)
I need to get ready for a lst minute concert that just got sprung on me about 10 mins ago DMB is in town and last time I heard them they were moderately good
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:49:48 PM)
Ah okay, that's cool
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:49:50 PM)
and you need that with FOS
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:50:01 PM)
anything else I can do for you?
Hans Lange (Aug 31, 2010 7:50:22 PM)
Nope. You've been most helpful, and I apprecite the time you've provided
living.catalyst (Aug 31, 2010 7:50:38 PM)
