Homebrew Predator types for Vampire 5e
I'm toying with one modification and a few original Predator types for VtM5e, having noticed a few holes. Additionally, expanding the known Predators from 17 types to 22 types means I can align them with the Major Arcana of the Tarot, meaning a player short on inspiration can do random draws until they find a suitable Predator for their character.
I'd love some feedback.
Modified: Blood Leech The name is kept but now applies to young kindred still lapping at their sire's wrist. The published version now has more in common with my Methuselah type further below. Specialty: Insight (hunger) OR Medicine (exsanguination) Discipline: Animalism OR Protean Advantage: Ingenue Flaw: Prey Exclusion (mortals) Gain 1 Humanity Special: the character will eventually have to switch Predator types without change to their starting Specialty or bonus Discipline. When converting, lose both Ingenue and the Prey Exclusion. Humanity is unchanged unless the new Predator type drops you a level.
Methuselah Preys on their fellow kindred. Specialty: Stealth (kindred) OR Etiquette (false security) Discipline: Celerity OR Blood Sorcery Additionally, when choosing clan Disciplines, set one to 2 and BOTH remaining Disciplines to 1 Lose 1 Humanity
Abraham Feeds during ritualistic sacrifice. Specialty: Craft (restraints) OR Occult (sacrifice) Discipline: Presence OR Blood Sorcery Merit: gain 3 dots to spend on Retainers Gain either set: Eat Food AND Organovore OR Luck of the Devil AND 3 dots of Mythic Flaws Lose 1 Humanity
Bender Denies their hunger and feeds when the Beast breaks free. Specialty: Occult (meditation) OR Brawl (take downs) Discipline: Celerity OR Potence Flaw: Obvious Predator Flaw: Weak Willed OR Risk Taker Gain 1 Humanity, not that you'll keep it. Special: the character will eventually have to switch Predator types without change to their starting Specialty or bonus Discipline. When converting, lose your Flaws from this type (unless the new type also bestows Obvious Predator). Humanity is unchanged unless the new Predator type drops you a level.
Rake Takes blood by force or submission. Specialty: Intimidation (compliance) OR Investigation (blackmail) Discipline: Celerity OR Presence Advantages: distribute 3 dots between Contacts, Influence, and Resources Lose 1 Humanity
Vigilante Prey upon the deserving. Specialty: Stealth (shadowing) OR Investigation (doxing) Discipline: Obfuscate OR Oblivion Flaw: Despised Gain 1 Humanity
PREDATORS AND TAROT CORRESPONDENCE Fool...........................Bender Magician..................Blood Leech High Priestess........Graverobber Emperor...................Montero Empress...................Scene Queen Hierophant...............Cleaver Lovers.......................Siren Chariot......................Roadside Killer Strength...................Alleycat Hermit.......................Trapdoor Wheel of Fortune....Methuselah Justice.......................Vigilante Hanged Man.............Abraham Temperance..............Extortionist Death..........................Grim Reaper Devil............................Osiris Tower..........................Rake Star.............................Farmer Moon..........................Sandman Sun.............................Pursuer Judgment..................Bagger World..........................Consensualist

A Runaway Maverick (technically) Day 1 of Drawtober
This is my Ravnos lad back as a ghoul! Back before he went by Beau, on the right is his ex/sire Theo. lore under the cut :]
Maverick, Ricky, whatever you may want to call him ran away from home in the spring of his senior year of high school, having met Theodore after a college tour, and being absolutely *smitten*! He then spent several years with his new lover, performing, traveling around the west of the US and acting as a bloodbag absolutely living his best life! Eventually he was embraced in a panic when he was drained by accident. Soon after, Theo left, taking much of their earnings and their van. I love both the idea of him ending up a thinblood and the option of him being a full Ravnos kindred so both versions exist in my brain? (this is all written with the 5th edition rules in mind) If full Ravnos, he would spend his days as a traveling musician, settling into feeding off his audience (albeit with several mistakes when he was new,, and abandoned by his sire). In this version, he hopes to try to reconnect with Theo, uncertain what he did wrong, angry but optimistic in a way (when hes not writing sad country break up songs). He understands in a way why Theo did what he did, he would have panicked too in that situation! Maybe it was okay! They can talk it out!
He wishes to make back up with his mother now that he is more successful, but is unsure how to explain his awful teen behavior to her (running away, asking her for money and promising to come home,, then disappearing again), never mind his current situation (being a vampire). In this he would go by Beau, cursed with the secondary clan bane, and well known enough by his lover's old nickname for him to adopt it as a stage-name. For the version of him that's a thinblood, I think hes far more vengeful. He wants to go back to his family, but is still cursed with the clan bane, feels useless to his sire as his blood is no longer desirable, and he is ANGRY. He feels lost and abandoned and had to beg his mother for money. He quickly realizes he could not return to his old life, he can't go back home, not if he wants to actually *live*. I think he would want Theo dead, he's conflicted but he's no longer bloodbound, and would not have nearly as many benefits of kindred life as a fullblooded vampire, he's not interested. He wants his life back.

After being absent for a while - and thanks to Twitter's blunders - I'm back on Tumblr, where I plan to use it as another window to showcase my work... Starting with a commission of a character from the RPG Vampire 5e. A Ventrue named Iago Estirge.
Also, just a heads-up that I have open slots for commissions! Just send me a DM.

I don't know much about vampire the masquerade (I played it occasionally with some friends, but it's not exactly my type of game since I prefer epic fantasy and tactical combat, but I can definitely understand why people like it) but some time ago I was hearing my friends talk about it and they were talking about disadvantages your character can take.
One of these disadvantages seems to be "hey, you know all the myths about vampires, like garlic, can't enter houses without being invited and can't cross rivers? Yeah, you have that". And now I'm imagining a vampire with this trying to explain to other vampires why he can't enter the house.
V1: "I wasn't invited"
V2: "Of course not, this is a heist!"
V1: "Yeah, but I can't enter"
V2: "tf are you talking about? The door is open!"
V1: "I mean, I'm physically incapable of entering the house"
V2: "Stop with the bullshit and get inside!" Grabs the vampire and throws him into the house
V1: Hits an invisible wall and falls on the ground
V2: Wtf???

Tumblr media
I'M MISTER TORGUE, AND THE NERD WHO HELPS ME LOG INTO THIS ACCOUNT ASKED ME TO DO AN AD FOR HIS SERVICES. I TOLD HIM I WOULD, BUT ONLY IF I GOT TO WRITE IT MYSELF. SO STRAP IN, DUMPSUCKS. IT'S PRODUCT PLACEMENT TIME:
--
DO YOU WANT TO PLAY DUNGEONS & DRAGONS BUT YOU CAN'T FIND SOMEONE TO RUN YOUR GAMES?
ARE YOU FED UP WITH A GAME MASTER WHO WON'T LET YOU STRAIGHT-UP MAKE OUT WITH THE VILLAINS OF THEIR STORY?
DO YOU WANT WANT TO LEARN TABLETOP RPGS BUT EVERYONE WHO TRIES TO EXPLAIN IT USES THINGS LIKE MATH AND SPREADSHEETS AND YOU CAN'T STOP THEM BECAUSE FATAL SUPLEXES ARE ILLEGAL ON YOUR PLANET?
THEN YOU NEED BENCOMPETENCE, PROFESSIONAL STORYTELLER AND GAME MASTER.

BENCOMPETENCE HAS RUN OVER 100 PROFESSIONAL GAMES OF TABLETOP GAMES, INCLUDING DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, CITY OF MIST AND MORE. HE HAS 100% POSITIVE REVIEWS FROM HIS CLIENTS, WHICH IS PROBABLY MORE THAN 34%.

Tumblr media
THIS WOMAN COULD DRINK MY BLOOD AND I WOULD SAY "THANK YOU"

SOMETHING ABOUT LEARNING HOW TO BE A BETTER ROLEPLAYER IN A PERSONALIZED LECTURE
THERE'S A LOT MORE TO SAY, BUT THE NERD WRITING THIS SCRIPT STARTED TALKING ABOUT CHARACTER SHEETS AND SOMETHING CALLED NARRATIVE AGENCY, SO I HAD TO BEAT HIM WITH A FOLDING CHAIR UNTIL HE STOPPED. YOU CAN HELP PAY FOR THE BODYCAST I PUT HIM IN BY SIGNING UP TODAY!

If Strahd sent me a wedding invite or even for a vow renewal for his brides. Disrespectfully, I would decline. I ain't about to be the entree for them y'know. I like blood like I like my slumber. Undisturbed.
