But seriously, someone ask me about what I'm doing with Demons in my Vampire game. I am so ready to spew about this. I can't talk to my players, you know.
I played a tabletop game about vampires (World of Darkness). Near the end of the story, I decided to draw a full panorama featuring all the characters. I made it as a parody of the Князя and his “artwork.”
I did a cursory job of making the Four Swords boys in VtM5. Had fun with it. :)
I enjoy the base d10 pool system of this game, and I think there are some clever mechanics in both this and earlier versions, but the book is NOT easy to use. (Not to mention the trove is dead...) :P overexplanations below the cut!
Blue
He's a bit different from Red—
- his clan is Brujah, so essentially "the angry punchy ones with social justice ideals or something"
- finds blood by directly mugging people on the street
- good at punching
- vampire powers include seeing in the dark/glowy eyes (he stole this power), being very strong, and scaring people
- he has criminal contacts, crashes at Red's house, has some responsibilities in vampire society, and has a rather high-status vampire mentor (some like, guard captain equivalent I guess)
- he also has some vampire hunter mortal enemy and won't feed from anyone that looks like they're under like 20 years old
- I gave him a main belief of "protect all children" and named some random kid who's meant to be an Erune parallel or something like that
- he wants to kill Vaati! Surprise!
- he also wants to get R/G/V/S up to competency with a melee weapon or two
Vio
Details:
- oldest so far, born 1911 and died 1931 (I'm assuming American so Great Depression era). That puts him at 11th generation vs Red and Blue's 13th, which means he's slightly more powerful
- clan is Tremere, the sorcerers and scholars
- works at a museum repairing old books, knows a LOT about medieval occultism, and finds his blood among museum staff and visitors
- smart, bad at punching or literally anything physical. He can drive though. And good at noticing things.
- vampire powers include seeing in the dark, erasing a few minutes of a human's memory, making his own blood acidic, making another vampire hungrier, and briefly making himself more powerful
- he also has a few rituals: one to walk on walls, one to learn about someone if he has a cup of their blood, one to find someone he knows, and one to know if someone is telling the truth or not
- he knows French and Japanese, is mildly famous among museum folk, can find some good money, and can sniff out good blood.
- but a group of other historians really don't like him because of some paper he published. He gets hurt if he touches silver or garlic. He won't drink from students. Other vampires in their secret society are somewhat suspicious of him due to past activity.
- Red's house? You mean Vio's office
- he has two main beliefs to tether him to humanity: (1) be independent (2) encourage people to learn
- he also wants to kill Vaati. For science. Also he wants to learn more magic.
Green
Details:
- rather young, about Red's true age, but of a slightly higher generation
- clan is Ventrue, the leaders and rich people
- he's masquerading (well, he has a good false identity) as his own son, which lets him keep using his influence. He lives with the others because this is a Story but he is very popular among the rich kids at the exclusive university nearby, which is where he gets his blood
- He's pretty smart, but focuses on manipulation and pulling social strings. something something investments and trusts
- Despite all that, he doesn't particularly *like* the rich culture. He's here because he feels like it's more moral to feed from those uber-rich than anyone else. In fact, his preferred victims are the young rich, and feeding from anyone else is difficult for Reasons
- His special powers include Magic Suggestion, Magic Resistance to Persuasion, Magical Toughness, and Magical Intimidation
- Oh and also Magic Shouting Voice
- He's rich too. Or at least can get to a lot of money.
- There are a couple vampire hunters after him though
Shadow
Details:
- A couple years older than Vio, they died about the same time, to different causes but they did very much know each other back in like 1920 (I'm imagining an infuriatingly slow burn romance)
- Since I don't have a book with the Lasombra shadowy clan in it, I chose Nosferatu for Shadow. They can't hide among humans because they very obviously look like vampires (the lore talks about them looking very ugly and then describes some real disabilities which is *ugh* but I bet I could come up with something better. like dark tendrils or metallic skin.) The Nosferatu are interesting because they're kind of considered one of the most internally human of the clans, which I thought was a cool nod to Shadow's belated and cracked moral compass
- He's pretty smart and good at technology, and also art. I imagine he makes some money doing like digital art or something. he has a hobby, which is more than some of these guys can say
- He actually exclusively drinks blood from animals, and not humans at all. One of his magic powers allows him to do it more easily, and he takes some penalties if he tries to drink from a human.
- His special powers involve turning invisible in darkness, turning an animal into a familiar, summoning small animals and talking to them, and being stupid strong
- His humanity connections involve valuing human life and art
- He has a fantastic setup in Red's basement, computers and security and all, and probably never goes outside
- He speaks French like Vio does. it's their thing I guess.
- He has a dark secret, idk what it is yet. It's easy to bond him to another vampire's will. Vampire society is wary of him. He has an enemy of some kind. this boy is just loaded up with flaws, man.
A bunch of miscellaneous sketches of some vtm ocs that I never really shared outside of discord.
Read more down below:
In order: 
-Anton Lacroix: Toreador (yes he’s Sebastian Lacroix’ dad. Is extremely devoted to late wife Katia and attempts to collect every piece of artwork she’s ever done. His art is outfit design and doesn’t know Sebastian is alive)
-Willem: Venture (Anton’s best friend and depending on au is Sebastian’s sire. A lot of people mistake him for a toreador because he likes to make wine and metalsmith.)
- “Ume”: 4th gen Tzimische/ Tzimische adjacent antediluvian
(there’s a-lot to say about him , so for brevity’s sake, some fae sent him back to the past and he got turned into a vamp and hoping to save his vamp bf in the future from his final death)
-Izaya: Malkavian
(my second vtmb character and Ume’s bf. Again a lot to say but simply put his sire ate a Tremere, so izaya can do exactly two high level spells and anything else is a major flop. He likes to press every single button Sebastian has and is a menace to kindred and kind alike.)
-Jessica: Lasombra (v5)
(Again a lot to say but specifically in v5 Sabbat kinda thing. Is the bishop of Savanah Georgia, works at the local Waffle House, has a human roommate named Marcy who likes to role play as a Victorian vamp, and is in a pissing contest with the local head of the second inquisition. Her superior is trying to convert her to traditional Sabbat ideals through her fight with the SI. <I don’t care if her story isn’t lore accurate I’m the story teller here.>)
- Durante: Tremere
(A powerful player in the Tremere pyramid, rival to Oliver Thrace, and technically the sire to Preston Varrick. He’s sadistic, manipulative and likes toying with his ghoul at the time, Preston. Decides he going to eat the Salubri Dominico to one up Thrance, wins the dominance battle but mentally peaces out once he realizes he can’t take being more emotionally aware of people; leaving his body to be taken over by Dominico.)
-Dominico: Salubri
(there’s a lot for him again, but once he gets control of his new body he actively tries to hide that he’s a Salubri from the rest of the pyramid while attempting to teach Preston, his new childe, how to be a good little Tremere and how to use blood magic. <he sucks at both of these, blind leading the blind here.> and to figure out how to escape the pyramid. Thrace figures it out and after turning his own childe and their lover into a gargoyle, decides he wants Preston to be his new childe and proceeds to execute Dominico via beheading with wire. Preston never finds out Dominico died and was told he ran from the pyramid.
i've been very attached to my vampire the masquerade 5e game lately, so here's my little nosferatu makeup artist, Stella. she has teeny bat eyeballs & draws fake human ones around them
I wanted to try my hand at 2-bit (4 colors) portraits so I made faces for people in my vtm5 party! From top left, clockwise, Martina (my Brujah), Baron Vickridge (NPC ran by our DM @jamlyjar), Monica (Tremere played by @mallowninja), Nessa (Gangrel played by @omegathenotsoomniscient) and Oscar (Malkavian played by @brossuno)
