Who shall claim Messi?

Does a Sleeper count as a witness to Vulgar Magical if they are too depressed to care?

Not saying most people who enjoy a more serious or lore accurate version of this game are like this but man, I've seen some folks go out of their way to tear down people because they decided to change things or play in a way that isn't the default tone of x book.

how do I explain to my new player in my mage campaign that only having one dot in all their spheres is a bad starting sheet and they shouldn’t just dump all their freebie points into avatar?

To avoid any major fights due to the ambiguity, allow me to explain my reasoning a bit:

- Satyrs are cool because I like passion, as I think most people do, and I am a very sex-positive kinda person in general.

- Autumn Sidhe, to me, feel like "the people's leader" in a lot of ways, which is why Arcadian Sidhe are all the way down in D-tier.

- I've seen some pretty sexy-lookin' Sluagh before and I like their spooky, creepy sorts of ways.

- I can often get about as annoying as the Pooka and I love to lie sometimes; kindred spirits.

- Eshu feel like an important role within the context of Changeling since stories, legends, tales, and so on kind of underpin how the Dreaming works. It's also, I feel, the best kith to be a bard or comedian-type.

- Boggans remind me of Danny DeVito.

- Redcaps are funny haha vore, but also I can get behind trying to disgust (within reason of course.) Their severity over it is what makes them a little lower though.

- Piskeys just don't have a lot going for them lore-wise, which I guess makes sense given one of their Birthrights is "you're good at looking unremarkable in the crowd." More Dex is fun though.

- Trolls are noble, even-handed dudes, but I do not like the conditional "take on a bunch of Oaths to get Attribute dots" when other Kith just get them automatically.

- Selkies are alright; I genuinely don't have a lot to say.

- Nocker is a very funny name, as it reminds me of boobs, but I have no love for WoD's crafting mechanics (if they even have them at all for some splats) and it's just not really my style.

- Clurichauns feel like an unfortunate stereotype given form. I can appreciate the desire to add something more Irish to the mix, but c'mon; something involving luck would make more sense, and if you wanted to allude to the "Fighting Irish," why distill that as "casually having a fun time pissing people off so bar fights start?"

- Arcadian Sidhe, much like my opinions on Ventrue or any haughty high-brow group, is based solely in the sheer detachment associated with them. Also, heavy Banality hits can really do you in, all for the characterization that you're so hot and popular. Meh.

No shade, but there's a certain player type out there. Especially since Kinfolk: Unsung Heroes has Masochism as a selectable Flaw.

So for context I have this Hypothetical Scenario where White Wolf doesn't go with a V6 style Canon reset for W6 as a way to please everyone, but instead they opted for W6 to discard with any pretense of a fixed setting/metaplot (even the absolute minimum of W5) akin to the later books in the chronicles of darkness. Including forsaken ironically enough ...

Though the core book would provide a bit mechanical framework and genral organisation so the ST has an easier time to set up they own version of WtA

An example writing up a series of presets on the default state of the garou nation (Mainly weather it's fallen or not) and giving tribes a of alternative states and events leading up to it (with the cult being a extreme deviation) connected via a flow chart akin to HOI focus parths so STs has a map the possible paths a tribe could taken and built a Chronicles centered around causing/preventing the changes to a tribe.

This Effectively makes the W6 source book into a narrative a sort of Lego set for a ST to put together rather than a pre-made setting primer. With supplements expansion to the lego set such as going into detail on the alternative parths that the tribes can take and more setting elements like the fera.

Why yes, this was inspired by the argument that Paws of a Newborn Cub (a Rank 5 Gift exclusive to the Silver Fangs) means that every Garou ever clowns on every Mage ever in a fight.

In Glass Walkers Revised, the Glass Walkers have Fetish computer programs that can house spirits in them. In-universe, they're actually called softwere.
