Mad Roleplay moments

And this one from character creation

A new character joined the group (remind me to do a resume of the group's actions so far) but it was clear we were having problems.

S: Damn, I can't make this character.
Me: *ever helpful GM* Well, start at the concept - what is the concept?
S: Reality TV Show winner.
Me: errrr... ick?
S: I know. I have too many points to spend! This bloody system won't let me produce a talentless waste of skin!

Yes, the character creation system makes it hard to create talentless narks! Though it did give us the chance to have a character with crafts "Bushtucker challenges"

It was also decided that if he chose Clan Toreador or Clan Ventrue the rest of the clan in the city would just commit suicide out of pure shame.

Maybe he could have a special set of points for attention whoring.

see, now your challenge is to run a game FULL of talentless fucktards. i'd think that'd actually be fun, really. =D

You can't become so extremely specialized that you're useless except for one thing? Say, icthyology in Chinese art during the Ming Dynasty?

Quote of the day.

Now, in GURPS, you could probably manage this. Just drop all those points into a bunch of useless reputations, maybe some unconscious mind-control powers to explain the winning, a lump sum of wealth--

--wait, but at Vampire-level point totals? Yeah, that'd be nearly impossible in any system. I applaud your bravery in tackling such a problem.

I would point out that while reality-TV show winners are for the most part useless gits, they are not completely without talent. Think about how much backstabbing and treachery go on in most competitive reality-TV shows. In order to win your player's character would probably have used a great deal of manipulation and leadership to fuck over his fellow players. While the Ventrue would be appalled by the attention-whoring that is required to even appear on one of those shows, they just might be able to find to find a use for the devious little... I'd say "weasel" except that I actually like weasels. I don't know how long he'd LIVE as a Ventrue, but that's his problem.

probably going to get my flamed - but i am from qld, oz and like the man... don't get me wrong

Alas, the mad adventures of Supreme Dictator Sparky.

And on a completely random note/the reason why I am commenting.

I was readnig some quotes from my favorite band, and I stumbled upon one that just reminded me of you, for some odd reason. oO I dunno.. just READ.

Interviewer: What was the best pick up line used on you?
Jade: Will you have sex with me? No? Rape it is, then!
