Café de Nuit

My Forlorn, if you remember it is a bit different. http://www.fraternityofshadows.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=10417 Rereading it , the history and culture is kind of vague or perhaps underdeveloped. I am not sure how the humans, the druids, the fey and the vampyres fit together in the big pic...

It is a decent idea for those who use dread companions or familiars in their games, which I don't. I don't like punishing players for picking certain classes.

The Vistani Homeland. Why Vistani stays in Invidia at all? They are a nomadic people and they are able to navigate the mists, why should they stay in an hostile environement where they are persecuted? The reason is simple: Invidia is the Vistani's homeland; before the curse that dispersed them, Inv...

I like the idea of the coachman being the Dark Lord instead of an evil Pinocchio. You don't have to change anything to make that guy evil, he already was. He definitely deserves Dark Lordship. I also like the fact not all constructs are evil. Why would they all have to be evil even when made by a go...

Background checks out. If this isn't the inspiration for Markov, then this goes down as one of the most bizarre coincidences that I've heard of, and I know some doozys. Since Moreau was almost certainly the inspiration for the comic book character it would be surprising if there weren't similaritie...

IMO Juron Cygne is the true Darklord of L'Morai. The later council members are powerful undead that he can control when he so wills it, which isn't often, as it takes effort and he can do so to only one at a time. Unlike most undead they have no real hatred towards living beings, particularly freaks...

A griffon or hippogriff riding unit that does double duty as an elite Luftwaffe aerial warfare and scouting unit and political police that literally snatches people up off the streets would be interesting. There are never enough of them to make as big of an impact on battle as Drakov would want; gr...

Easily my favorite of that lot, although they all look game-worthy.

Yeah, they all have a lot of potential.

Direct retribution from his victims seems more Gothic to me. A lot of ghost stories are stories of vengeance. Yes, but self-inflicted punishment in front of the innocent victims of your wicknedess sound as a worse punishment to me; plus this cut him any alibi; he could have tried and overcame his c...

A kind of divided government. The few demands from the church is enforced by the church. For example blasphemy would be tried by the church as would marrying outside the church etc. It would have taxes of its own as tithes. The founding of cults outside of the domain would be under control of the c...

Another idea I just had, maybe make it into a full blown theocracy. Unlike Nadillia it is mostly benign. It mostly requires people to recognize Sune as "Queen of the Gods" in a matriarchal pantheon and Gabrielle as the high priestess. It also demands people to preform fertility rites and ...

He can play politics in the daytime but he does so from the manor. The mayor of a city doesn't leave city hall to play politics he does so from city hall. A governor doesn't have to leave the governor's mansion and the president doesn't have to leave the White House. Ruling from a seat of power is ...

A minute of contemplation? That is ten rounds! By the time it takes effect the fight is over.
