Welcome to Gaia! ::

So Zane and I have been working on trying to put together a new vampire clan for LARP. We didn't know that our original idea was almost the same as how one of the other clans was formed. cat_sweatdrop So I went looking for myths I could use. But I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask since the closest thing I've found so far to what I want was the Lilitu.

I'm trying to find something that would be the reason the clan flaw is that when embraced the new vampire is automatically blood bonded to their sire and the bond can only be broken through death.

*Just me rambling now so it might get a bit confusing*
My first idea was trying to make something that couldn't possibly be easily killed by True Faith powers. Then to equal it out we came up with the blood bonding flaw. For some reason when it comes to roleplaying I fall in love with flaws. Could care less about merits. So I'm more worried about losing the flaw than losing the merit.

Did they say how the first one was made? That's the part we're stumbling on.

The storyteller wants the creation of the first of that clan to be unique. Like the clan I didn't realize we had copied was a mix of two opposite bloodlines and that's why they're insane.

We were trying to stay away from Cain and Lilith as founders.

We go for something that might have been vampire like in mythology. Like one of our clans is based of the Rusalka. I forget who the original founder for that group was. We even have a clan that are flesh eaters that Baba Yaga is the founder of that one. Judas was the founder of our healing clan.

That's kind of interesting.

Hmm. How much based on reality or Mythology does this need to be? I have several various ideas.

Could be a mutation of a virus passed on via touch, hence touching bonds them.

Could be a misperformed spell or ritual that backfired.

Punishment by the Gods visited upon the leader and his kin.

Hell you could even go the route of they just like it.

Bet that dude felt sorry for doing that.


I think it doesn't have to be completely based off of mythology.


But then wouldn't that also spread to others? Its an interesting idea that I could possibly work with though.


I think there's already a clan like that. I don't remember the full backstory of our moon worshiping clan.


That's interesting. That might actually kinda work with what we were trying to do with the clan and keep the merit.


I don't think our storyteller would like that one cat_whee


Alrighty. Thank you.

Thanks everyone. You guys were a big help on giving me ideas.
