Alternate prompts for WoD #MonthOfDarkness

While I understand the intention of this year's list is to end up with a full reference sheet for your player character by the end of the month, I felt like the "Your OC's" prompts were a little restrictive for me.

The alternate prompt features a more "open to interpretation" approach, seen in the last few years' Month of Darkness, while still remains somewhat similar in content to the official prompts (My OC's biggest dream -> Grand Ambition -> Could be grand ambition of anyone in your story, the Prince, your character, your sire's, doesn't have to just be of your character anymore).

I do have to admit the only WoD game I know the best of is Vampire, so the prompts might lean a little that way...

So.... Here we go again🦇

"Who are you?"

- I'm a cop. The greatest cop of the district. The greatest cop of Chicago. The greatest cop of America. The greatest cop of the world.

"Don't you worry Sylvia, you're so beautiful, they will love you as I do. How could they not, with a smile like yours that rivals the Sun itself?"

....All topped off with his terrifying appearance. The sharp teeth protruding from the thin and cracked mouth, the egg-shaped head, cracked and pustular, on which three tufts of long and stringy straw-colored hair stand out. The eyes are large, glassy and protruding, with completely hairless eyebrows. The skin is cracked and yellowish. The hooked hands and long scaly nails.

She smiles at him, radiant.

"Why not? Let's dance, Mircea. "
