Sounds of Silence Roll4It #8 - ENTER ELYSIUM - Vampire the Masquerade 5th Edition

Dakota: "Nothing is kept a secret"

Well that's sure true of anything you tell Dakota!

Good episode. I'm noticing that Zach metagames, a lot.

Wow! Dakota's an idiot!

Loved how you guys used a song from redemption when the Tzimisce came around. Awesome easter egg, I loved that game.

Much prefer you calling it the Cat Cost. Though I get that works like the Masquerade that your not supposed to reveal your controlled by your cat.
.
The tip jar does "physics", more like a bomb drop half the time.
.
Yeah if the Anarch Ventrue is being hauled before the primogen that tends to mean your screwed.
.
We apologize our gangrel hasn't been house trained and our haven may have been the first home they've had in years.
.
Yeah if the question was who in the Sabbat you've been in contact with there would be a flamethrower pointed at your face.
.
Etiquette might be lost on most gangrel, but the toreador would have made sure they were stuffed into something finer.
.
Kind of surprised Zach used his question on Saito, instead of trying to get confirmation their release was still considered official.
.
Dakota's stream seemed to be having some lag this episode.
.
Dakota had a choice, but that choice was obey or we introduce you to a blowtorch and then expel your crispy body from Chicago.
.
Of course there is bitterness Zach and Ava are a functional family unit that love each other and Dakota's life sounds void of that and that is then made worse by seeing how much Olley cares about his son, and wondering why could little Bethany have that.
.
Good on Dakota for trying to use her Blood Hound ability creatively, much like I think the Ventrue ability to sense if they can feed from somebody should also count as a supernatural detector, to tell if somebody clearly not their bane restriction type is kindred or another splat with blood, due to feeling like you can feed on them.
.
You got attacked by Changeling/Fae? Feel too "normal" to be tzimitzsce creation.
.
Seriously Ava has a stalker and Zach never taught her even 1 dot in fire arms, when she's a clan without damage disciplines?
.
Black numbers on dark blue dice, don't look that great.
.
Eh only halved from non-incendiary/"special" rounds. Though your outfit doesn't have kindred endurance.
.
You said things were getting hard last time and this combat felt easy.
.
Seriously that tzimitzsce should be ashamed he made such pathetic agents.
.
Dakota yells at the coterie for telling the Cam things and then spills the big secret.
.
We have to call this an episode before the coterie shatters before Olley gets back.

oOoOoO spicy 🔥

Wow this show is great, the Drama, the Tension, Excellent 👌
Funny to find good stuff years after it's posted

So hard to sit idly by & watch. I want to yell at the characters during combat. How quickly they forget about using their fangs. A;so didn't Zach stash the book at the haven when they were heading to meet the Primogen. He then goes on to say it isn't stored at the haven. SEems like a lot of stuff gets retconned bye Zach like the details of the welded cell. Like to see kindred pass frenzy checks running a welder.

Why does Zach not have four dots in occult

I hate when people ask eachother at the game "Then why dont u leave" because if she did than ur down a player its stupid and annoying but overall fantastic roleplay

anyone else picking up a "Miss Parker" from "The Pretender" vibe from Camille?

Zach : "you tried to force my hand"
well... this character is really quite always mirroring his own doings to others.
since the start, he's been doing whatever, deciding he's doing what's right, never admitting willingly and sincerely to having rushed others.
Yes Dakota is impulsive and somewhat naive, yes it's the world of darkness, but are they trying to form a coterie or what ?
It goes to show that young kindred act like young childer :-D

Margaret is so good at this.

My anxiety spiked so hard after Ava blurted out "anarchs" I had to pause the video, leave the room and talk to a friend about it before coming back

I swear, 10 minutes of "mom, dad, please stop fighting" towards the end

Honestly I hate Dakota as a character. I find her highly annoying and just a headache. Yeah Zach can be egotistical but Dakota just drives me up a wall with everything her character does.

Dakota is super right in this one. It's 100% useless for them to have the book, no matter how valuable it is, when they don't have the power to protect it.

It's funny how easy it is to manipulate Dakota. Show her some attention and she goes from rabid dog to playful puppy. Zach is right, Dakota is dumb and selfish. Camille saw that and played her masterfully.

While the argument went in circles for too long imo. Watching Camille’s reactions to the chaos she caused is wonderful. Looking to see what happens when they find out she took the dude

listening to this after pulling an all nighter while playing games and just suddenly GANGREL is a very interesting way to wake me back up XD

Dakota: "she already knew. I did nothing wrong."

My Ventrue Elder: "wow, everything you just said was wrong."

Me IRL: Fantastic acting I feel visible rage when I see your character.... well rage is not the right term, but I feel my inner covert operations screaming.

Also I had this thought the entire time. What if those men were sent by Camille expressly for this purpose. I cant shake that feeling.

I wonder much meta knowledge Chelsea has because she plays a gangrel soooo well!

Camille damn looking good!

What is "Normal Kindred"??

In the first 5 min the rules of Elysium are tossed out the window. I thought it was not only a neutral place but comes with the added nuggets of safe ingress and egress, for all...
So how then does the Primogen Council justify slashing Dekotas hand and stealing her blood?

This makes me miss playing. I have noone to play with any more

I know this is a year old, but what's up with this Elysium? No public (at least to the kindred of the city) display of false magnanimity? No prohibition on violence? In most cities even the anarchs are invited to Elysium and protected under its ancient tenants. Only the Sabbat are unwelcome. Sounds fishy for a cam city, even if the prince is missing. This exchange is fine - I mean the council certainly has the authority to summon them, but this venue seems all wrong... But who am I to judge, just an egalitarian freethinker with doctrinaire streak (Sabbat - Ventrue Antitribu ;))

... Camille throwing it back in the street with Dakota with no music playing... yeah, we've reached that point. I dig it, I dig it a lot.

I'm an entire year late on this campaign but I love it, great job guys. Love @Little_Red_Dot, I know I love her character because Dakota irritates me. Dakota is a huge liability to the coterie.

Camille is 1000 times scarier than Mark or the Camarilla Primogen!

Zach is the most relatable Character personally, but Ollie is my favorite. Missed him this week

I love Camille, great character, and expertly played.

Wow, I really hate Dakota right now! She played her character so well but man, she really fucked up the coterie.

I know I'm late to the party, but i am slightly frustrated that no one mentions the fact that Zach was DROWNED IN ACID??

Wow that escalated in the coterie.. Excited to see how it will go on. Greetings from Germany

I love little red dot but MAN DO I HATE DAKOTA she's so ignorant!!! Oh man her character is ugggh so infuriating

I'm surprised Dakota didn't take the chance to ask what was with her blood being taken.

Holy shit! Great episode, so much tension. Outstanding performance by everyone.

Wow! Dakota absolutely killed that elysium aftermath scene.

It is just me...or are Dakota's eyebrows becoming feral? xD

Wow, what a episode, definitely have to side with Dakota on this one, Zack has done too many conniving, sneaking tendencies that at the root has caused all of them to get in trouble, and instead decides to focus on Dakota for her own mistake. The fact that they want her to join an group that literally looks at her clan as dog shit on the street is absolute mind boggling.

Dakota and zach each have a point, but dakota's the one making sense. She did not sell the coterie, the whole situation made it so camille quickly understood the whole thing.

Haaaa Tzimisce. The old terror.

Oh so Mathas did end up using the V5 combat rules
