Sub Mod idea, Vampire: Dark Ages

[KnightPeter]

I dont know if any one of you played Vampire ark ages. M&B expecially ad1257 mob perfect for that concept. its hard to explain all about World of darkness and vampires that lived that era but i could say some vital point.

1) Player also chose vampire clan beside starting faction. Like Brujah, Venture, Tzimiche and others.

2) clans have 3 major discipline (vampiric power). For Brujah presence, dominate, potence.

potence  gives player inhumane strenght, presence gives inhumane cha and also gives more party capacity and dominence gives diplomacy trade bonus etc. more can be discussed about it.

3) We can create elite knights via making them ghoul their strenght and health incresed.

4) Slight health regenartion can be gained by killing enemys at battle.

5) After beating enemy vampire lord with lower generation we could have option to diablere to gain new generation level via vampiric powers.

i can give a lot more idea but i dont know anything about coding nor moding. i am open to learn tought with right team.

dont say i hate vampires. Yeah you can hate but before saying anything please give some research for world of darkness games. its totally cool beside being fantasy also its historical.

thanks

Isn't the Vampire ideal more suitable to late Medieval/early Renaissance time ? Considered it is the time when Prince Vlad was living...

Also, vampire paranoia wasn't huge until that time, was it?

 

[KnightPeter]

Yes it was but the game i suggesting was set in the year 1197, while the 2002 edition updated the setting to the year 1230 (can be played any dark ages year by small modification). there is also book series called Transylvania Chronicles which takes from dark ages to  Renaissance time. which is including Vlad tepesh aka Dracula from same publisher. if you intersted you could find pdf book at internet.

Transylvania Chronicles I: Dark Tides Rising
Transylvania Chronicles II: Son of the Dragon
Transylvania Chronicles III: Ill Omens
Transylvania Chronicles IV: The Dragon Ascendant

I should mention that N0ught is already working on a vampire mod of his own. But it's a very 'realistic' mod, with no clans or anything

 

[KnightPeter]

could you give me link for it ? thanks.

Thanks for link, In A Mirror, Darkly - A Vampire Mod not close to idea at my mind. in the end this is m&b and hard to implant too much vampire element as rpg game. The books i mention more suitible as concept. Like you are lord and noble born then turned to be vampire and you are hiding your nature from certain humans or not. Vampire's are everywhere even at church but they did not dominate everywhere yet. Vampire bussines are much different then mortals mostly it is political against one clan to another. Mortals are only toy like a chess piece. Simply you are not a savage beast hunting human for blood. Yes you do that as vampire but that is not major factor for games.

You are a lord of somewhere at medieval world and ruling not from  shadows only. Some clans ruling from shadows to church for sure but that is different case. too much to told about world of darkness if anyone else intrested.

No offense, but I think it sucks.. flying and biting vampires??

Thanks for your comment, before starting anything i am aslo in need of others opinion yours noted. These vampires cant fly unless they trained at certain disciplin like animalism to turn bat. They bite indeed

Well, if the idea goes on, we must think how the map will be divided? In the mortal kingdoms or in cainites teritories? Cause in some cases the respectives kingdoms doesn't fit, for example Lasomba's Sea of Shadows contains all Spain, Italy and Latin Empire.

Also travelling in day should be pretty mucho slower, cause you should do it in a coffin, or just camp on the road or melt down in the earth if you have Proteam discipline. Otherwise, your ass shall be reduced to medieval ashes.

But the idea is great.

PD: For references, a game named Vampire The MAsquerade: Redemption was released 12 years ago, it's about a vampire in Prague in XI century, a little inaccurated historicaly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire:_The_Masquerade_%E2%80%93_Redemption

I have played vampire the masquerade and bloodlines.
Bloodlines was one of the best rpg's but under-estimated.
I like your idea,but there is a small problem:
how would you give battles during day-light?
For a vampire mod the best universe is the one
whith the brujah,toreantor etc clans but it would be extremelly complicated.
It also exists in pen-paper form.i don't remember how it's called(the universe).

This is also problem. But if you can get problems fixed, and make it playable, it would be good mod!

Yeah i have been thinking about it. i had some ideas still i dont like them much.


1st) They can travel and walk under sun by some kind artefact (Cliche!)

2nd) Vampires dont prefer to fight or travel under sunshine but just for this game and make us happy they can but having with debuffs. (like half stats, low health) (Killing RP)

3rd) During night time all okey but day time we will stay in our coffin and our chosen companion take command by our will so we play with him. (most logical) So we prefer to fight at night.

4th) At traveling we will be in our coffin so far np. But at combat we will consider ourself trying to fight under shadow and constantly taken damage from sun with having some major debuffs. We have time until our health went down zero but also option to kill our enemies at battle field and regenarating our health.

5th) or both 3rd and 5th option.

Anymore ideas?

I'd rather the 3rd choice, it would be more realistic (second and fourth options sounds like Twilight vamps, certantly a thing that I don't want to see).

 

[JuicyDeath]

is there any points to base this on 1257? The only point i see is if Kauiuak will make things for mod.

PS But he will not unless it's gay vampire submode
