#anarch coterie

[mystickingstuff]

NY by Night's first season is legit my favorite. Of course I love season 2, but season 1's last episode is just a rollercoaster of amazing moments. From Fuego side-eyeing Rey when Isaac asked them to be polite in his sire's presence to their whole talk with Vaclav to their discussion about Reyes's shady deal with the Camarilla. Like, it's everything. Man, I miss that coterie SO MUCH.

*and I miss my ships, okay.

Serif is queen of galaxy-brain IKEA hacks, so she’s ✨thriving✨

Rey and Fuego are arguing like Liz and Criss in 30 Rock.

Isaac dissociated on arrival and is absolutely lost in the sauce wandering the warehouse.

alex's characters + damn bitch, you live like this?

edinburgh by night update

recap first since it's been over a month since last session:

the ventrue seneschal staged a coup and ousted the toreador prince by framing her for sabbat collusion. he's now prince and backed by a ventrue justicar and her archon, the new seneschal. also a ventrue

the coterie staged a big fight so that we can help from both inside the cam and within the anarchs. mitra (ravnos) and sami (brujah) are playing the role of dutiful cammie loyalist while del (toreador thinblood) and delores (lasombra) help the anarchs

there's a hidden sub-sub-basement in the club mitra owns, and he and sami constructed a sewer entrance so the coterie (and del and tara) can still meet discretely

end of recap!! new session started with the coterie meeting up in the basement of the club to figure out a game plan

first we need an object that belonged to delores' sire so del can hook her up with the 'communicate with kindred sire' ritual. del killed her own sire (twice) so now her line is dead and she can mix her blood with another kindred's to perform the ritual for them

call up our boy beckett to ask him because delores' sire was kind of a big deal and he might know something. he sure does!! they were friends and coterie mates once, and he has a bookmark she loaned him

ritual time! delores learned that her bloodline is able to control a massive abyss monster called the leviathan, and she can use this to help aelsidhe reunite with del. eventually. it's in madrid rn and her sire's trapped at the bottom of the ocean

sami and mitra deal with soooooo much bullshit politic circlejerk stuff at elysium. they see tara!!! she looks so relieved to see them and also so fucking sad. st says it's clear that she misses del but she has to put on her ironclad Tremere Primogen mask so no one else sees. she and the boys pretend not to know each other (no one knows that she and del are together)

sami and mitra are Pretend Boyfriends* (*not very pretend at all) and harkins tries to rub lyons' (mitra's other partner) nose in this. lyons and mitra are already pretending not to be together, and lyons already knows about/is cool with mitra being poly. fuck you harkins

every time someone asks about the coterie breakup sami and mitra are like "yeah well you know delphine, that violent asshole bitch, and delores was always too.....................religious. yeah, we got sick of the catholic shit." this works every time

ventrue justicar rolls up with the staked prince of glasgow (brujah) whose sire was the prince of edinburgh 2 princes before harkins. the brujah primogen of edinburgh, who was besties and possibly lovers with said deceased prince, has a fit and insists on sitting in on the interrogation so the ventrue don't pull some shady shit

mitra and sami are in the room, the justicar leaves, the room fills with shadow and when the lights come back the brujah primogen and prince of glasgow are piles of ash. we're 90% sure this is the new lasombra sheriff's doing. same dude who claims to be delores sire but isn't, and who definitely wants to control the leviathan himself but can't because he isn't of delores' bloodline

WOD clan bingo for Tobias and Calliope. Calliope definitely fits her clan more then Toby lol. Toby just wants to be alone with his eagle bud and to overthrow the camarilla from the inside. Stole this from one of my mutuals lol.

scrolling ao3 and saw a vtm/batfam crossover and suddenly im completely normal

[eclecticfiend]

have you watched season 2 of nybn yet?

i did, although only once so far. i think the political intrigue of a cam coterie is interesting, but its not really my cup of tea right now. it just didn't scratch the exact same itch that season 1 did.

i really like coco and brawn tho, and i'm very much looking forward to what happens next to both groups.

jason really has his work cut out for him next season! but he is brilliant, so i'm not worried :)

"we all need to be on teh same side" oh honey no

[gendernutralghost]

I will never get over automatic YouTube captions that are so close yet at the same time completely different to what is is actually being said

[castleintheskye]

I don't like playing games where you can only lose like vampire or monster of the week even tho I like the concept from a story perspective. However last night I dreamt I made a nosferatu character named Carjack because he used to scrub the vin numbers of stolen cars.

Fangfest 2024 - Day One - The Fool Khloe Osborne, Ventrue Thinblood, bane of the Fullbloods. She has no idea the greater workings of Atlanta, and no one who knows seems to be keen on telling her. Her and the rest of Stakebait coterie are going to probably make all of their makers rue the day they were ever made. You don't tell them what's going on? Well, guess matters will just need to be taken into their own hands. Khloe is my fool! She has no idea what's happening, she really is just doing what she's being guided to do. The coterie is starting to really catch heat from the consequences of their actions, and the Fullblood higher ups are always mad and blaming them but also neglect to tell them exactly WHAT they're messing up. Fine by them, who needs the Fullbloods anyway???? *sweats nervously* The hands gently holding her arm are her coterie (Christian, Kyle, Ralph) and those covering her eyes are her sire and Anarch (Lena), as well as the Dusk Angel and leader of the Thinblood resistance (Sydney). She's holding a fire bomb that hunters had left in a Thinblood haven, which she used in their scuffle against the Sheriff. It cemented the Thinbloods as a LEGITIMATE problem now for the local Camarilla rather than just nuisances. It's Fangfest day one! So stoked that I've been able to assign tarot to our OCs!! Can't wait to keep going!

Inside you there are two vampires . . . Traditional style vampire, and Anarch Bimbo smash the patriarchy vampire. I made some more VtM Coterie Coffins for myself and a coterie member~ @diableriedoll Mug is from Enthralledyet !

Hey you! Do you like LA by Night and NY by Night? Want to branch out into watching more VtM actual plays? There's a few I really enjoy that I'd like to share. They are all 5th edition

Blood on the Grand Strand/Are We Dead Yet? from Huddyvonschland Coterie clans: Ravnos, Tzimisce, Salubri, Tremere, and some more regulars who swap in and out. And then also oops all Thinbloods! The tourist town of Myrtle Beach enjoys a vibrant nightlife. An eclectic Anarch coterie must contend with the Camarilla (and later Sabbat) making moves in their city while the Second Inquisition begins their operation. There's funky cults, a suspicious drug operation, weird Thinblood stuff, and a lot of juicy worldbuilding which sometimes brings in other elements of the World of Darkness. The players are an absolute delight, Huddy's storytelling is fucking delicious, and the table has a ton of chemistry. The atmosphere is moody and it's a very chill time. I consider this my comfort chronicle

Vegas by Night from Mayday Roleplay Coterie clans: Ravnos, 2 Malkavians, 2 Gangrel, Warrior Salubri, Lasombra This show is nuts. It has everything. Vividly gritty ST narration, occult mysteries, a coterie of forcibly Camarilla kindred in way over their head, wacky Vegas hijinks, lifelike and captivating characters, a meat house, Lake Mead being terrifying, so much buck wild combat. A gospel singer Ravnos who sounds like Elvis and the world's horniest Malkavians. Every plan goes haywire. They always pick the solution that will create the most consequences for them. It's super high energy but man it's fun. Caleb has spread such a wide web of plots that all somehow interconnect. It's really impressive seeing it all gradually unveil and all make sense together in the greater scheme of things. His brain is seriously huge

Legacy of Bulls from Adventure Tavern Coterie clans: [Spoiler], Hecata, Brujah, Toreador A Birmingham coterie inherits the grudge of their forebears and has to race against the clock to solve a mystery and prevent any damage. I'm in love with CT lmao he's my favorite representation of that clan I've ever seen. The chronicle has elements of the occult/magic, investigation, and an atmosphere that is often moody and tense with the occasional chaos. I love the drama in this one

ATL by Night from the Facility Productions Coterie clans: Brujah, Tremere, Ventrue, Gangrel. And some more regulars who swap in and out. In later seasons there is a new coterie: Lasombra, Thinblood, Hecata, Tremere, Gangrel, Ravnos After taking heavy losses during the Final Nights, kindred society in Atlanta must rebuild. Many were hastily embraced during those confusing times and the coterie is tasked with bringing those lost childer into the fold. There is a focus on character development and kindred Politics with heavy Second Inquisition involvement. All in all I find it to be very cozy and intimate, it's really relaxing to watch

The Rook and the Rascal: Montreal by Night from ThreeKingsLoot (audio only) Coterie clans: Tremere, Toreador, Nosferatu It's been a while since I listened to this one so I forget a lot but I remember there were werewolves, Pentex, and a lot of over the top violence. And something about a cult leader, I think? But it's also very cozy and has themes of community and friendship. They utilize True Faith in a novel way and the characters and narration are very charming. They don't follow the game mechanics exactly but it makes things way more high stakes and dangerous and interesting. I had a good time listening to this

@cavegirlpoems posts about vtm encouraging a wide variety of playstyles reminded me that one of the basic brujah archetypes was "anarch thrash metal band coterie going on tour" and that sounds like a fucking cool as hell campaign idea
