Re: Laws of the Night OOC and Discussion
MMK, your character seems pretty well thought out, if a bit over-the-top. If he were Embraced, what would he do to keep himself from being extradited?
That's easy- faking his own death, probably with help from his newfound powers and his sire-to-be.
Edit: On the thought of fakeing his own death, a large bridge over a body of water would do the trick. With a vampire's natural resiliance, he'd probably be able to take a pretty big one. Vampires don't float [it says so in the book when talking about Athletics], and does not need to breathe. He'd walk to his waiting Sire, get some new clothes / etc.
As for being over-the-top, my first character ever was pretty much over-the-top the whole way. I modified him for this game, so that instead of being in prison he's in a hospital, and instead of being a child, he's a very young adult.
I'm just looking for some insight into his thought processes mostly. I find that hackers generally don't make very good PCs, simply because there isn't much reason for them to do anything but sit at home in front of the screen. The information gathering is handy, they just work better as an NPC the characters could ask a favour from.
This would explain why my character was so unsuccessful at my previous games. The long and short of it is, his sire [for Presentation's sake] demands the character appear at court and socialize, much to Malachi's dismay.
As a Nosferatu, this socializing was more in the form of showing off my Potence when I wasn't hiding and eves-dropping with Obfuscate. What little socializing with other players generally involved being an asshole, quick to point out mistakes and almost never admitting someone else's success.
I have an alternative character, a gun shop owner who has a hobby of making home-made guns (my second character ever, ironically also a Nos but works just as well as another Low Clan), which may fit into the story better. You're call, of course.
