[quote=@Themerlinhawk] [quote=@Alchemical Chimera] [quote=@Themerlinhawk] Your list of path's is incomplete i believe as I will be using the path of Bones. I think i've settled upon a cappadocian necromancer. Atleast for my first character. If we're allowed to do more than one [/quote] It's all a direct lift from the chapter on character creation in the Vampire the Dark Ages core book. The Road (they are only called paths in modern nights) of Bones is introduced in Clanbook Cappodocian. I also didn't include the Road of Tears, The Road of Metamorphosis (which the core book hints at in the section on Tzimisce), or The Road of the Hive. Nor did I include any of the revised Roads or Paths fro Dark Ages: Vampire. That book tries to make the roads into a series of guilds like it's a dnd game. I tell you it loses the whole point of the Dark Medeival World. Now, as a Necromancer, I'm guessing you're going to be a Giovanni? [@Howler] said she might include character restrictions, so I'd run my ideas by her before starting on too much back story. [/quote] cappadocians were the original necromancers, the necromancy discipline was originally used by them to raise corpses as opposed the giovanni penchant for spirit necromancy which i find lacking. Although I guess technically they use the mortis discipline. and okay i didnt realize it was a direct lift XD For a second there I thought you were hella cool and had just wrote that shit out like a badass [quote=@Thantos] good choice merlin, im choosing the Path of the Beast, i thought about it and looked at his nature and demeanor, he is a monster after all and willing feeds the beast within, with out a care in the world, he has the need to feed on anything that still has a heartbeat, even a little sparrow, i am thinking that this gangrel would need a daylight guardian though, see how i was thinking his reputation alone should catch the attention of the group, a ruthless blood thirsty monster, he was originally a Gladiator in the Roman coliseum hence his animal like behavior and fighting skills, retreat leads to death, so he lets the beast within have its fun, when he was bit it was while he was escaping from rome, so, i have some of his story there, and his age, romans and the roman coliseum are old, old world times, so if that works for the group then im happy with my choice [/quote] maybe our characters have met before then, since Either my necromancer or one of the other characters i have in mind (assuming i can play more than one) is going to have been from rome before the fall [/quote] maybe, that could work and with the description that was provided about the questions rome could be their feeding ground, well split in half maybe, either they are rivals in rome, brute force versus magic, or they are allies and he swore to be a bodyguard for your character because he saved his life when it came to escaping from the coliseum it works either way, but the only thing that would be tricky is the feeding habits, my gangrel doesnt really care how much blood as shed as long as he quenches his thirst and his need to feed
