The All Tremere Chronicle

[Hydrogen]

Me and Izzy have been working on a DA-Tremere chronicle and will start hosting soon (not sure when though). The map will be Darkages_v1, and the only clan allowed will of course be Tremere.

Not sure how we gonna let you guys submit you sheets as it wont work with neither Shadows nor Trogers sheets. It will be PnP DA, so creation rules are a bit diffrent. Will try to post the rules later on. What do you think is the best way for you to submit sheets? I have a PDF file with the Tremere DA-sheet on it, but you will need a special kind of PDF-reader to fill in the form. The Applications that i know will do this is Adobe Acrobat (not the freeware) and Foxitreader (freeware).

Im open to other suggestions about submitting.

These images are clips from the Revised edition of the DarkAges corebook, these are the creation rules we will use.

Ignore the Archetypes, we wont be using Nature/Demenaour

[Hydrogen]

I have begun working on a simmilar form like Shadows, although i dont know when it will be done or if it will work. still interested in other ways for us to recive your characters.

[ShadowLance]

you can use my DA form i set up for XTC's game:

Some of the text isnt correct (such as camarilla and sabbat not being around depending on what time frame you're in), but that's no big deal.

[Hydrogen]

thanks, but my own DA sheet is almost done

A note on Thaumaturgy.

Since this is an all-Tremere chronicle,
all players will have accsess to Thaumaturgy.

All players must choose a Primary path,
this path will advance in the same rate as you Thaumaturgy stat
(i.e. Thaum 3=Primary path 3).

Unlike the rules in the book, we will allow ONE Secondary Path in the creationprocess.
This Path will cost 6 freebie points to advance in and you must have at
least a rating of 3 in your Primary Path before you can learn a Secondary one.
The secondary one cannot be advanced more then 2 dots under your primary path,
(i.e. Primary path of 3 = Secodary path of 1, Primary path of 4 = Secondary path of 2),
Untill you reach the 5th level of advancement in you Primary Path, then you can advance
to the 5th level of you Secondary Path to.




Common Paths:

These paths are taught in just about every chantry,
any of these paths are ok as your Primary path.


Uncommon/Rare Paths:

To gain any of these Paths, you should at least
write in your background why you have been taught it/them,
the better the reason, the bigger chance that we will allow it
(not allowed as Primary Path)


Very Rare Paths:

These paths are RARE. You will not be permitted to have any of these unless you
have an EXTREMELY good reason (written down in your characters background).
(not allowed as Primary Path)


Not allowed at all:

Forgett about it. Not going to happen unless by an act of God.
(sexuall favors or massive bribes might work )

Out of curiosity, can we play a Ghoul?

[ShadowLance]

I'm sure hydro will answer this, but from what I understand: no.

Seems like being a specific background of vampire is pivotal to the story.

But just guessing here til Hydro responds

I find the best way to spoil a game or decrease the fun in a game is to put in place loads of rules, most games I've been in like this tend to end up going down hill. The best games are the ones that give player "freedom" this includes

-What clans you can play
-where you can go
-what you can learn (e.g. disciplines)
-sects you can join
-weapons you can gain
-etc...

If you take away these things or add in more rules, your taking a risk. Just thought I would point this out from experience.

We're making a PnP Tremere chronicle here, so it would be unrealistic to let players chose anything but Tremere, as the Tremere were pretty much hunted by all other clans during the dark ages.

[ShadowLance]

aye, think he's suggesting to not host an all tremere DA chron

[Trogers2]

aye, think he's suggesting to not host an all tremere DA chron

nah, my point was to just be careful about what limits (rules) you put in place, the more you put in the harder it will be for the players.

I know, I just added that in as an axample of what kind of rules can e placed to reduce a players "freedom" too many of these rules e.g. Clan limit (fine in this game though) can dullen the game a lot.

[isador]

Tremere have such a huge varied amount of powers they can wield through Thaumaturgy that i'm fairly confident it's going to be a fine game.

[Trogers2]

that wasn't what I meant lol..
Ok here is an example

I am hosting a game, you can only be Brujah, you can only be a ghoul, your stats are not allowed past 50 and you can not gain any discpline past level 3 etc...

my point been, the more custom rules you put into place the more freedom you take away from the game thus taking out the fun completly, having one or two rules i.e. Benn tremere is fine.

[Hydrogen]

ok, first of all, Doe, i've been working on the rules for being a ghoul. i guess it would be ok, but you would have to be bound to a member of the cabal (one of the players), another idea would be playing a gargoyle, but this could be boring since they doesnt have free will like a ghoul does (if you can call being bloodbonded "having free will". im sure we can work something out though. Second, the only "rule" that we are going to impose is the clanrestriction. banning certain paths of thaumaturgy is just common sense since some of them include things like manipulating electrical machines, while others are only known by the Manus Nigrum (Black Hand).

[Hydrogen]

ok, here is the first draft of the form i created for our DA-game. It can be used for any type of PnP DA game, not just ours. If there is anything you would like me to change, just let me know. Please try the various alternatives, clans etc. I have put alot of effort into making them all work in different manners. Anyway, just explore it and have fun.

[Trogers2]

Nice job, I have one point to make though. If the chronicle is based on Tremere, why have you added all the clans, i.e. Assamite, Brujah etc... Arn't we just playing Tremere?

[Trogers2]

Might also be a good idea to just link the KK webpage about clans/disciplines instead of listing them like that, it saves you from having to scroll down further.

[isador]

It's an all round DA form, it can be used for any DA game

[Hydrogen]

if you would like to use it in the future i can always redirects the responses directly to the ST.

[Hydrogen]

i was just wondering, how many of you have thought of joining the game when its time? dont need to submit a character yet, just wonering how many is interested.

[Trogers2]

Well to be honest Hydro, your WOD skill is good, it's your ST skills you need to boost.

-Isador
-Shadow
-Trogers2
-Doe
-VL

Appear to be your main members atm.

[Doe]

IM deffo in, although im looking forward to being a Gargoyle
