Auspice does not get free fake legal woof to Phoenix Wright for her.

I like the idea of becoming a not-total-monster being an almost impossible task, but the heavy emphasis here is on "almost."
ANYWAY the setting is what it is, so I'm gonna quit bitchin' and start learning about warwilfs.YAY WHEREWOOFS
I mean I don't play but...ughhh I love wherewoofs. I really ought to make one.

Everyone should make werewolves. ESPECIALLY @Rinel and @Ganymede. And they should come to court with my Elodoth. Not like... vampire court. Lawyer-court. And they can watch me just reenact scenes from The Grinder, and Phoenix Wright, and other nonsense lawyer-fu that definitely should not work, but does, because DICE, BITCHES.
Edit to make @names happen and shit.

I will make a PC vampire once or if the bloodlines are written out and installed. I will make a wolf until then.
But I won’t do either until I move into my new house fully and work lets up a bit thereafter.

I'm making a LOST BOY.
Character generation is hard when engines don't hold your hand

Look, on most games everyone is so Team Good that sometimes I wanna go on WoD and just like, run around as a wolf and eat people.
They moved the 'you are kind of a fucking monster that no longer plays by the rules of humanity and no longer really even relate to them' from the subtext into the actual text-text and people continue to miss the fact that you are an inhuman monster in favor of playing Twilight.

That's why I play mortal. :B
So I did take a glance at the werwulf rules, and it doesn't seem like woofwirs are inherently bad. Yeah, they definitely seem inhuman, but from what my cursory glance showed me, it doesn't even look like they have to hurt humans. Vampires, yeah... definitely harder to be anything but evil. But the worwilfs seem like you could be actively Good. Or am I misreading warwelf splat?

@Rinel Werewolves are spirit cops. They make sure the spirits stay on one side of the gauntley, and humans stay on the other side.
This is GOOD when a murder or rage spirit crosses over and makes humans go on a MurderDeathKill-spree.
This is SHITTY when a healing spirit crosses over and helps keep the death toll at the local hospital down.
-
Jennkryst’s perspective is one way to look at it, sure.
Another is that, as a spirit cop, you have to also prevent spirits from having a way in. That means eliminating people who cause the problem.
You are also hunted by your brethren (The Pure) who think you murdered Spirit Dad. You have to protect yourself against that while respecting the rule not to kill another brother or sister.
There’s a lot to unpack in the game, and you don’t need to be a wolf or wolf blooded to participate.

POLL: Do you want A Normal Freehold That's Always Been There But Nobody Really Ever RPed About It or do you want There Was A Scary Thing That Kept Changelings Away But Now It's Gone And That's Its Own Kind of Scary? Caveat: I may ignore what the responses are and do what I want anyway. I may also steal ideas here that are not those two and run with them if they're better than mine.
I like the second option.

Play true to theme, kids. This is New Orleans. It was a Nutria of Unusual Size.
@RDC said in NOLA: The Game That Care Forgot:
I find vampire's theme more compelling because I LIKE "but deep down you have to tackle the darkness inside you that you can never ever get away from".
I like this if and only if the possibility exists for a vampire to constantly fight the evil and not just give in and lose forever. Being a vampire who wants to be good and has all of eternity (or is damned for all of eternity) to keep scrabbling toward the Light in her attempts to get there is very compelling to me.
