embracing the vampire autism i have going on apparently means combing through 500 vtm books and making notes on the lore and contradictions in the lore and potential implications and what was intended to be taken from some things vs things that actually make sense in context/with better research and sorting through what was included for mechanical gameplay vs worldbuilding reasons and combining all of this + the information intentionally left vague so i can form my own ideas into an amalgam of schrodingers canon with which to try to figure out what i personally tend to view as canon in-universe and then still figuring out how to insert the contradictory information/alternate interpretations in as like. character opinion/intentional misinformation/etc.

#The upside to this is i actually really like combing through a bunch of information and sorting through it. in theory.#Lowkey kind of house of leaves/arg feeling #the downside of this is i am being So Autistic about it and it is going to take So Long and also #my desire to be Accurate and the fact that this encompasses so many times and places #means that i am going to want to do So Much only tangentially related researchhelp #and there's already So Many vtm/dark ages books even without getting into the other world of darkness stuff #which at this rate i am probably going to want to get at least somewhat into #because it can canonically intersect with/affect vampire shit at times #mypost #'embracing the vampire autism' i say. as if i havent been visibly careening toward this particular collision for A While #it first i was like. no this isnt the autism. at least not any more than usual. i've always Liked this #this is.... a normal amount of liking something. sure.#.....fuck.#and the issue is. i have. other things to be doing. but here we are.#and instead im like. that unhinged conspiracy board meme from always sunny but with vtm lore #attempting to sort all of it out coherently and borderline comprehensively #which is. kind of fitting for people trying to but together all the different lore and conspiracies in-universe tbh #and kind of reminds me of when i first started researching the occult as a younger teenager #with the like. mountains of information and different loosely interrelated subjects to sift through with various degrees of sketchiness #nostalgic. anyway
