Which always was funny. Parodied very well in the great Gehenna - The Musical.TheFlatline wrote:1a. Vampires stick to the city. Why? Their food source is there, but also, as soon as you leave town, lupines (werewolves, technically *not* garou) will shred your ass and turn you into dust. You have to specifically build yourself as a survivalist character to live outside a city.
"["How we quit the forest"]
[A short, educational interlude]
A pack of werewolves are making their way towards the center of the storm.
WEREWOLF #1
Come my brethren! Let us slay the Wyrm-Beast and cleanse it's foul taint from Gaia's soil!
The other werewolves stop and look at him, confused
WEREWOLF #2
Uh... What are you talking about?
WEREWOLF #3
Yeah, dude. Did you eat something funny?
WEREWOLF #1 Not understanding
Why? Are we not Garou, Gaia's chosen warriors?
Werewolf #2 looks puzzled
WEREWOLF #2
Look, there's obviously some misunderstanding. We are Lupines.
WEREWOLF #3
Yeah. Bestial berserkers infected with lycantrophy.
WEREWOLF #1
Yes, but do we not slay vampires?
WEREWOLF #2
Well, yeah, but only because we're like twice as bloodthirsty ourselves.
WEREWOLF #1
So... No Garou?
WEREWOLF #2
No.
WEREWOLF #1
And no spirit mentors?
WEREWOLF #3
None whatsoever.
WEREWOLF #1
And what about Wyrm-thingies?
WEREWOLF #2 (Smiling)
Only if you haven't taken your shots.
WEREWOLF #1 (Blushing)
Gosh, guys. I feel so stupid. Well, I guess I'll be going then.
Werewolf #1 steps sideways and vanishes
WEREWOLF #2
A pleasant enough fellow. But I wonder how he did that?
[And now back to tonight's feature]"
Hm, I may be wrong here, but wasn't their disadvantage that their bite did not induce euphoria in their victims, but rather caused incredible pain?FrankTrollman wrote:The Giovanni clan disadvantage was that they had to do that, they didn't have a clan advantage that allowed them to.
