What's your opinion on the VTM Tabletop Signature Characters?
Hi! I have little to no experience with neither the novels nor the ttrpg, so my grasp of the signature characters is sparse at best, but! through mitosis, hanging out with long-term vtm fans who've read the novels etc, has somewhat filled me in, as well as my own time reading the wikia for fic research lmao
So because of how little I know of them, these are more my impressions of them lmao, sorry, i'm not sure how in depth you wanted this but i am. very new to vtm in a relative sense
Theo Bell and Jan Pieterzoon - just some guys <3 as vtm custom, incredibly fucked up backstories that i doubt WW handled as well as fan interpretations have spun it. Lots of drama surrounding them by the sounds of it, and the concept of a Brujah archon who becomes disillusioned by the Camarilla and begins the last Brujah exodus from the ivory tower is *chef's kiss*. Also fuck hardestadt all my homies hate hardestadt (Intend to use both as minor cameos for some fic projects, ngl.)
Sascha Vyoks - little mx meat crimes, ignore their continued, multiple, and grievous violations of the geneva contention they've existed before geneva did xx
Anatole - malkavian dude just creates so many issues, also he's catholic. good for him?
Beckett - KING I LOVE HIM, such a bitch and i love him, love his vibes and how tough he is despite seeming like such a nerd at first glance, then you find out what feral marks mean, that he bottomed for dracula, and he's like an actual celebrity in the vampire world. what a legend <3 also he loves lucita and anatole, canon polyamorous king. Love his stubborn hope in the BJD excerpts @ryttu3k would send in every now and again
Lucita de Aragon - hey girl hey, your mind is slipping and the sabbat have taken your free will. Genuinely very tragic character and im angry for her >:(
Aisling Sturbridge - I've played Coteries of New York but not Shadows. She's a fun little Tremere, just kind of throwing the player character @ Agathon and seeing what happens, girlboss. Not sure of her part in Shadows, but i like her character design and how textbook academic she is. Feel that does make her fade into the Tremere template and will struggle to stand out as a unique character, but then again she is the Signature Tremere, therefore a general representative of the clan
Fatima al-Faqadi, Hesha Ruhadze, Isabel Giovanni, Khalil Ravana, and Victoria Ash - no clue no idea no thoughts no opinions. Read Ramona's bio on the wiki and it was definitely moving, bless that poor bby :((
