Hunter the Parenting Pit

[chilly seal]

kithain?

Would be double funny if there was no Ghoul and Kevin was fucking with Big D
but they solve a huge problem anyway /j

[prisma adder]

A changeling, a fairy soul in a human body

Tho once again I'm not being serious :p

[chilly seal]

oh! Of course

[neon vine]

Well they need to draw up more animations

since this episode has a lot of them

[chilly seal]

Yeah, the audiologs are
""""easier"""" to do because you don't need to draw so many animations, background, details etc
And usually has way less VAs

[neon vine]

Plus they're moving away from the old "paper cutout" animation that most of TTS and the first episode of HTP relied heavily on

[simple hill]

Audiologs

[chilly seal]

Indeed, and that means more animations ,motions, etc.
I do welcome greatly, they just have been improving

Door and Boy get burgers audiolog when

[prisma adder]

I mean I imagine that's the audiolog we're getting between ep 4 and 5

Tbh

[simple hill]

Pentex

[chilly seal]

EVIL BURGER

[simple hill]

Evil burger that makes you beat your wives

[chilly seal]

What if I am gay and I have a husband

[simple hill]

Then it has no effect

[chilly seal]

IT'S THE WOKE AGENDA /J

So I can continue to consume the evil burger

[graceful jay]

Oh fuck no it's gonna be way longer than that

[simple hill]

Probably this time next year then

[compact copper]

I think so

I personally feel like there’s a lot do overthinking and theorizing going on rn

Like, the chapter head is named Occam

That’s not really a name you choose for a character unless you’re invoking it in some way

It’s to loaded

[simple hill]

or maybe that's what they WANT US TO THINK

[compact copper]

[graceful jay]

It shouldn't take us a year this time but it'll take definitely longer than 3 months

[prisma adder]

Yeah I'm expecting an autumn release personally
I'll cope by rewatching TTS some time

[chilly seal]

I should rewatch TTS, with my new warhammer lore i will get more jokes! 😄

Like who was that dacaptated ghost
Now I konw is Obiwan Sherlock Clousseau!!!

[neon vine]

He is like a Skull Ghost! A Skost!

[chilly seal]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-my-god-omg-red-letter-media-oh-my-gosh-god-gif-16960660

[neon vine]

He is Not Friend

I do wonder if we'll meet any more of D's Sons

Like Russ

or Victor

[chilly seal]

And he hinted some sons betrayed him

[neon vine]

or Connor

or Robert

[chilly seal]

Some people even say Horse is gonna be Horus

[neon vine]

or Morty

or Conrad

or Sam

[chilly seal]

Conrad would 100% be Sabbath

[neon vine]

See i think Conrad would be like, a Vampire who still acts like a Hunter

[chilly seal]

Eider a Nosferatu or Tzimisce

[neon vine]

He's obssessed with vigilante justice

[chilly seal]

He would still 100% hunt hunters if he don't like them too

[neon vine]

Sam is clearly a Toreador

[chilly seal]

"AAH! But you see
HUNTER
You caused property damage AND
transpassing.

I gonna have to skin you alive for that"

[neon vine]

or Peter

or Felix

[chilly seal]

Russ
Russel?
Being a Garou would be too on the nose

[chilly seal]

I would pay in blood to see Peter in HtP

[neon vine]

Clearly a Technocracy stooge

[chilly seal]

I hope they are at least alive and not-
What we see are the survivors

[neon vine]

Robert is probably a US senator or something

Khan is obviously a biker

[chilly seal]

Khan being a garou biker would be badass af tbh

[neon vine]

I think Khan is just like, a regular biker who is inexplicably badass

Since in TTS the last we saw of him he had apparently become a Dark Eldar Biker Gang Leader

[simple hill]

Imagine if the regency council are camarilla primogen a

[neon vine]

Lol

[simple hill]

Err high lords of terra

[neon vine]

Well Krakus is apparently living in a ditch in the woods outside Kitten's estate

and he was the PC of one of the High Lords

I wonder what Kevin's TTS equivalent is supposed to be, if he even has any

[chilly seal]

Malcador

[neon vine]

He kinda scans as a stand in for Malcador

[weak phoenix]

Malcador.

[neon vine]

Being the reasonable one to D's madness

[weak phoenix]

Also, it would be funny if Vulkan and Corvus are doing their bro trip thing.

[neon vine]

lol yeah

[weak phoenix]

But they're doing it as Second Inquisition agents.

[chilly seal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7owDVkxWOs&pp=ygUOYmxlbmRlciBkZWJhdGU%3D
Guy is Constantine Valor

[chilly seal]

Would be cool!
I really need to read the new Hunter's book to know what...HUnters can do
Since Occan could do magic but he's not a mage

[neon vine]

Marneus Calgar is a Hunter turned Second Inqusition agent who doesn't find his job satisfying anymore

[chilly seal]

And big D looked WAY too good for someone of his suppose age
Like
Door looks like on his mid 60
D looks late 30

[neon vine]

We know he is neither a Ghoul nor a Wizard nor a Faerie of some kind

[chilly seal]

What are the other options?

Good genetics?

[simple hill]

Door might be older than he looks

And could be adoptee

[chilly seal]

true
or stress

[simple hill]

Other options are that big d is a ghoul or a revenant

[chilly seal]

What is Revenant in WoD?

[neon vine]

Child of a Ghoul who ends up a natural Ghoul

no need to drink Vitae from a Vampire, they make their own

[chilly seal]

Do Guy's kids are Revenant's?
Or is Ghoul x Ghoul?

[neon vine]

Big D denies being a Ghoul and I think Kevin would have noticed if his blood was actually Vitae

Likewise, Door's blood doesn't seem to be Vitae otherwise Ape probably would have said it tasted different from what he's used to

[graceful jay]

Guys kids are older than his ghouling.

[chilly seal]

Oh fair, then yeah

Wait so being a revenant just kick ass?

[neon vine]

They're just like, ghouls who don't need a vampire to maintain their vitae supply

Revenants are also subject to Frenzy and Rotschreck so I don't think D is one

[simple hill]

True

He could be a human from previous iterations of the universe

[neon vine]

What like from Babel?

[simple hill]

Yeah

Maybe he survived by being frozen inside the cold tesselation

[neon vine]

hmmm

[simple hill]

But it doesn’t really make much sense considering apparently his ancestors quarreled with the black laws

[neon vine]

I mean Remold could also be similar to D

Just Belgianpilled

[graceful jay]

yeah all belgians are canonically immortal

[simple hill]

What like

He’s a Belgian version of Grimaline?

[neon vine]

yeah

Well more accurately a mortal from the Civilization of Ashes who survived the Shattering and the Flood and woke up in Belgium

[simple hill]

But then how is Occam his nephew

[neon vine]

His adoptive or biological sister married an irishman

[simple hill]

Maybe the simplest explanation is that Big D isn’t actually all that old

And he just looks young cause reasons

[chilly seal]

What the fuck are you blabbling about

Is that an actual thing in WoD

[simple hill]

Yeah

[graceful jay]

Don't gotta phrase it like that

[chilly seal]

ah sorry, I was making a reference to Kevin, pardon for being rude

[simple hill]

Sometimes mages rewrite reality

[chilly seal]

a

[neon vine]

According to DtF, humanity used to have like, limitless potential

Before God crippled them

This potential has never really been mechanically represented

It could be that all humans used to be Awakened

It could be something else entirely

[chilly seal]

They all knew by heart how Grapple works

[simple hill]

Maybe he’s a sin eater?

[prisma adder]

I think every game line has a bit of how humans used to be different in them, to an extent

[chilly seal]

A geist?

[simple hill]

Well he’s not a ghost because he’s got a physical form

[prisma adder]

Like, humanity in WtO for example used to accept and be one with death, being able to communicate freely with the deceased
CtD talks about low banality which would indicate humans having a higher creative power

[simple hill]

But he might be a sin eater

Who are mortals returned from the dead by a pact with a geist

[neon vine]

I wonder if the Ogrepoppening Gang will make an Exalted spinoff

It’d be real easy to do a Solar version of D, Door, and Marckus

Maybe Door is a bit more Alchemical than Solar. He’s got the fervent patriotism that the Octet selects for.

[slow bay]

maybe D is a Solar 😛
probably not

[chilly seal]

Might explain that 'flashback' of the last episode, where it was two kids, one with a shotgun and another with a longsword and a half dead human in an alley
The kid with the shotgun sorta resembles big D

[neon vine]

If D were a Solar, the vampires probably wouldn’t have been able to injure him in any significant fashion

[chilly seal]

He could be faking it, he healed surprisenly quickly

[neon vine]

That headwound that incapacitates him in Ep 3 would have been a minor scrape

[simple hill]

He did heal from incapacitation pretty quickly compared to Markus

But he also didn’t get shot

So who knows

[neon vine]

Plus the connection between Exalted and WOD was abandoned like before Ex1 Core saw printing

And if Bruva and Co are going with the most recent edition lore then Creation most definitely does not segue into the OWOD

[simple hill]

Considering that Occam called what big d did in the past the Reckoning

Honestly the most likely explanation is that he’s just an Imbued hunter

[chilly seal]

I felt that was more referencing how his expulsion made a 'reckoning' to the order
Needing to burn a lot of their books and ban certain things, like "D terms"

[simple hill]

Also it’s a bit weird how hunters are sometimes the most freaky part of supernatural lore in wod

[chilly seal]

do tell

[simple hill]

They sometimes do something utterly inexplicable

Like surviving their own suicide bombing

A catholic priest exorcist/hunter antagonist in canonical vtm setting

Takes down a significant part of a local camarilla in a suicide bombing

And then shows up in another setting years later apparently totally fine

No explanation

How did he do it?????

No one knows

[chilly seal]

.
The fuck

And he didn't used any rituals or magic?

[simple hill]

No

He’s a normal mortal albeit with True Faith

So canonically hunters have pulled off some rather truly inexplicable feats to take down the supernatural

[chilly seal]

He just rolled really good in his Willpower test

[simple hill]

Just some 70 old catholic priest taking down vampire primogen

[chilly seal]

If he can do it
D can do it

[slow bay]

True Faith is so funny

[chilly seal]

Do tell

[slow bay]

so the thing with True Faith is, it doesn't need to be a religious thing, though it often is

but you can theoretically have True Faith in nearly anything

[chilly seal]

Like in Humankind itself?

[simple hill]

https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Sullivan_Dane

Somehow his true faith renders him immune to fire

[slow bay]

possibly, if you really believed in humanity that much

but you could also have like True Faith in money for example

and repel supernaturals by showing them dollar bills 😛

[simple hill]

Big D probably has true faith

Considering he says mage spells won’t affect him

[bright aurora]

True Faith doesn’t do that I don’t think…?

Unless he meant vampire magic

In which case it very much does that

[slow bay]

it lets you do Countermagic apparently

based on your dots

[simple hill]

And one of the things True Faith provides is immunity to mages

[slow bay]

it at least makes it harder for a Mage to affect them

[simple hill]

Yeah true faith lets you do countermagic somehow

Kinda makes sense

True faith is an utter commitment to a belief to the degree that you would seem like an insane person to most people

It might actually be rather similar to mages magic in that regard

[chilly seal]

Yeeeah, Checks out

[simple hill]

I have never seen Big D ever actually fall for any vampire discipline either although I’m not sure how Kevin got the upper hand on him if he did have true faith

Did Kevin just overpower him physically

Also in hindsight being immune to fire kinda sorta explains how Sullivan survived his own suicide bombing I guess

[chilly seal]

Naphalm bombing

[simple hill]

Norma ordinary human with five fucking dots in true faith

[chilly seal]

The team did release Big D mentor stats tho

[simple hill]

Anyways sometimes Big D is just wrong I think

And might just be babbling insanely

Like he claims Louis Pasteur is a fascist in line with the NWO

But in fact Louis Pasteur is a Caitiff who invented a cure to vampirism

[chilly seal]

he does tkae a lot of drugs

[chilly seal]

THERE IS ACUTE?!

[simple hill]

There was

He got killed by vampires

For inventing a cure for vampirism

As the vampire elders decided that was a serious threat to camarilla

Louis Pasteur was a weird vampire

He was never embraced

He became a vampire through a medical procedure

Afterwards he also invented a procedure which reversed vampirism

[chilly seal]

I feel that should have way more weight than it has

Like the Daemoncuba, it's
A huge ass thing but it just shows up in a dark, tritty, campy book and is never mentioned ever again

[compact copper]

Also ngl

I wanna see Door and Boy blow up a building

I think they deserve to

[chilly seal]

They do
Until further notice
Good dad

And we must know mr.Smurples canon looks

[compact copper]

Also are we sure Fatigue was murdered?

He was very old

Maybe his body just did that

Also wait I only now notice the penis explosion room

[chilly seal]

very important room
is where you go if you fail penis inspection day

[simple hill]

I assumed that’s remold’s torture chamber

[neon vine]

I had assumed its a sex dungeon actually from when Occam and D were a thing

[surreal crown]

I'd like to imagine its the result of their previous dalliances

A ruin, created by sex

Like stepping into the Zone, your penis will explode and the paranatural cause is yet unknown

[chilly seal]

Dunno why i have a hard time seeing the two having the ZEX

[visual mesa]

it bcosue they both come off as tops and it hard to picture eather of them being the bottom (its Big D)

[chilly seal]

Btw when Kevin was being probed by Big D, he said "If only God would forgive me" and big D said "Weeeell, I forgive you"
What was that about? Just a gag or?

[bright aurora]

Big D has a gargantuan ego

[chilly seal]

Fair point

[chilly seal]

Why he always make that face on screen transitions
big fear

[simple hill]

because he knows he's being watched

[chilly seal]

And he gives the most wide evil green with souless blind eyes totehview to keep them on their toes

Also hammon users are canon /j

Also is Occan Solar stuff a Hunter thing or Mage thing?

[compact copper]

Hunter

hes a sorcerer

a normal person who has learned magic which is available to normal humans

hes not a reality warper like a mage

Or well he is still a reality warper, but he can only work within the bounds of linear magic

He’s unable to fully do whatever he wants like a mage could

But he also isn’t affected by consensus so he can actually openly use his magic without exploding

[chilly seal]

So that's a thing, nice!
I really should read the Hunter V5 book

[compact copper]

Honestly I’m not actively sure if it’s a thing in Hunter specifically?

Like the TTRPG

But I know it’s a lore thing in WOD

[simple hill]

Sorcery is a lore thing I think

[compact copper]

Yah

[chilly seal]

So not a thing a player can get
That's fair

[pallid bobcat]

IIRC you can get minor modifiers to things like attack rolls that are flavoured as minor sorcery or divine power but nothing as explicit as spellcasting

[chilly seal]

And rituals i imagine

[compact copper]

The BEST kind of scary tho

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1cTTsjPH-g

[simple hill]

Lmfao

[chilly seal]

Oh my god

[neon vine]

Good

[compact copper]

SO HIS BODY DID JUST DO THAT

[chilly seal]

He was a mage wanting to do a little prank

ezz
Mystery solved

Or a TF2 player with chronomancy

[simple hill]

If only big D had warned Markus this tragedy could have been avoided /s

[graceful jay]

Canon super Canon

If anyone says otherwise they're wrong

[compact copper]

Thank you Voy

So happy to get a proper word from the writers

[surreal crown]

The Only Writer™️ I might add

[chilly seal]

IT WAS THE LADY REGEND
Regent
Re-
REE-
The old lady

Kevin old boss

Because they can do this

And Spit or something else in the room could have been used to catalyse her power

Caser closed, crime solved.
Why thank you I would like my prize, Big D's short shorts

And Kevin can do that to himself

[neon vine]

But why is Spit physically unharmed

[ionic cloud]

You could say the other guy got harmed

[chilly seal]

Because she used Spit to project her discipline, as Big D said it happened to strangle his ex hubby

[neon vine]

I mean Spit is in the blast radius

per the Blood Boil effect, he was at risk of taking blast damage

[weary plaza]

he just maden his soak roll

[chilly seal]

mmmh true.

[simple hill]

Do you think big d knows Japanese or did he learn that one phrase just to fuck with grimaline

[candid violet]

I think Big D does things arbitrarily like a dog or some sort of wraith

[simple hill]

Maybe he is a wraith

Maybe he died during his fight with the methuselah

[candid violet]

With such a well-defined and corporeal backside?!

no shot

[simple hill]

What if he’s possessed by a wraith

[weak phoenix]

I mean Big D has been all over the place with his family and then with the lads.

And there was that time he brought up Bangladesh.

[candid violet]

Serious answer is its hard to tell how present he is

[weak phoenix]

I say the man is about a Wonka out of five.

[candid violet]

he’s both incredibly well-travelled, and stood in a store thinking about blenders for 40 minutes

so

[compact copper]

He did live in Tokyo for a while

Markus mentioned it

So probably

[candid violet]

Probably then

[weak phoenix]

And talked to Markus about the Jin being not real and just that they're a bunch of cosplayers in LA not understanding Asian culture.

[compact copper]

Yah

[graceful jay]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7GerBd9QVg

[chilly seal]

I am happy that Kev got his eye back

[compact copper]

Oh god that means Kevin actually has a gun

His powerful wizard gun

[simple hill]

regent sold his likeness for money

[chilly seal]

She
Somehow
Found him adorable enough to be plushy worthy

[compact copper]

New theory: there were actually 3-4 people choking out Occam

How do I know this?

It was revealed to me in a dream

[simple hill]

It was orient express

Everyone but kitten choked out Occam together

[weak phoenix]

Motives for everybody.

Big D and the Country House Lads: Getting back into the Arcanum to warn about the ghoul and also do a little grocery snatching for artifacts.

(Which is mostly Big D)

Belgian Money Men: Hate Big D and the lads. Want to have control over the chapter house.

(Which is mostly Blacklaw)

Making Fiends: Hiding their embezzlement of Arcanum funds.

Union: Helping with the embezzlement but also clueless about Vampires until now.

Independents: Trying to keep the chapter house under their control while dealing with a crazed Middle Eastern meat slab, an overbearing uncle, and a vague yet menacing government coalition.

The Old Guard: A millicent bystander caught at the wrong time, wrong place.

[north crest]

Hey wouldn’t it be funny if Fatigue

suddenly exploded?

[chilly seal]

Right on Spit's face

[gusty urchin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sBtZLCbPnU

[chilly seal]

Saw it last night
Cool 🅱️ideo, i recommend it too

[north crest]

Kevin, absurdist icon

He is just like Sisyphus fr fr

[chilly seal]

I find funny how people say he will become Big D's Markador

[north crest]

He already is

[chilly seal]

Capital!

[north crest]

I mean he’s already got the almighty wizard gun

[chilly seal]

The most powerful of the Tremere Disciplines

[rain wedge]

I will say that this series made me appreciate WOD as a setting a little more considering I have only heard of WOD under its worst circumstances and appearances.

[chilly seal]

Oh yeah, if you like to hear RPG Horror Stories you can hear some pretty nasty shit from WOD tables

[north crest]

Wod exists not for STs and PCs to use a dark fucked up setting to justify power fantasy

It’s dark and fucked up to pose question about stuff like What is human? What should we keep from the world? Who should control the world, or if we should even have that power? Is it better to interact with society or will it just cause more problems

[simple hill]

For an anarchist big D says CAPITAL a lot

[north crest]

(And also because vampires and werewolves r cool)

[graceful jay]

"What if you were still mentally ill and fucked up but at least you could do a backflip"

[simple hill]

That would be cool

Being able to backflip

[north crest]

That would be rad

[rain wedge]

[bright aurora]

I wonder if it's possible to port/adapt this to an Intruder map

[chilly seal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74_kQuNZuAY&t=1418s very interesting analisis , is entertaining at least.

My favorit epart thus far is how he needed to stop everything and explain Mage as simple as possible

[north crest]

My best explanation for mage is: you are a minor god slowly going insane from reality not liking the fact that you can change it. You and your fellow minor gods are fighting to see who controls said reality.

[chilly seal]

He also needed to explain the diffence between sorcery and real magic
And vurgar magic and ...the other kind of magic

I am going to punch Alphabusa on his Alphabuss

THERE IS CLAW MARKS

[ionic cloud]

I hate it makes sense

[chilly seal]

HAHAHAHA IT DOES

[simple hill]

grimmaline vented

execute her immediately

[north crest]

Okay here me out

The “suet” refers to a diablerie

Potentially, someone (maybe Kevin) is going to get dried up by some manner of female vampire (potentially grimal)

Anime

[graceful jay]

you know it

[simple hill]

Do you think the creature that Kitten killed that took the form of his college roommate or something was a Fey changeling rather than a vampire

Would kinda fit with Big D often just saying the bare minimum of the required explanation

It seems to fit with being dusted when stabbed by cold iron fence

[compact copper]

Doesn’t he describe him being covered in his classmate’s blood while he was feeding on her?

[simple hill]

Wasn’t he like actually eating her flesh

[compact copper]

Oh yah true

I don’t think vamps really do that

[simple hill]

Yeah that’s why I thought he might not actually be a vampire

Because Big D described him as a creature who is just “wearing the skin of humanity”

Which seems contrary to his actual attitude towards vamps

Whom I think he considers to be humans, just damned

[compact copper]

Maybe? It’s kinda hard to tell with him

He’s definitely a redemptionist

But I don’t know if that necessarily means he thinks they’re just cursed humans

[weary plaza]

Thin bloods that don't get fangs will do that some times, as well as one or tow bloodlines

MagmaNaught (any) ↩️

[Reply to:](#1216227286177808584 message) I don’t think vamps really do that

[simple hill]

Hmm true

But a recently turned thin blood wouldn’t dust upon final death though

And I kinda doubt an elder vampire would dust simply because they’ve been stabbed by fences

[compact copper]

Yah, the fact he was a college kid too definitely implies he was a recent turn

Like if he was an old vampire, he probably wouldn’t be living in a college

[weary plaza]

Yeah, though a changling would not turn to dust as well, and chemira don't relay show up to moretals

[neon vine]

He could’ve gone into torpor for a long while after being turned and only just recently woken up

[simple hill]

Well he clearly had a normal college life until fairly recently though I think

[simple hill]

Couldn’t he be a Redcap?

[weary plaza]

red caps don't turn to dust when they die

[simple hill]

Hrm

[visual mesa]

⌛Faries leave behinnd vary normal looking human corpses

[neon vine]

What happens to a Fallen’s host when the host is slain?

Though its highly unlikely Kitten would have been able to kill one

[weary plaza]

IWRC they just leave a normal looking human body like most non-human sperits usign human bodys do when there body dies

The turnnig to dust is preaty much just a vampiren thing, though it could have been a bygone of some kind that we be weirder tehn a flesh eating vamp

Like it could have been a chimari of sme kind, but mortals can't see or interact with thsoe wiht out help from a fariy

YEAAAAAH

[chilly seal]

4 hours remaining

[weak phoenix]

It's the 22nd the fuck. I thought it would be tomorrow.

[weak phoenix]

So, watching the Norfolk wizard game on Youtube.

They did not need to go so ham with porting over an actual play episode and just adding so much more.

But they did

And it's beautiful.

[weak phoenix]

Another wizard has entered the fray!!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2BRb_0RT9w

[gusty urchin]

that was pretty good

[chilly seal]

'oh shit'
Appropriate response

[ionic cloud]

also pretty sure that is masquerade breaching

wonder if D is even aware kevin is outside

[chilly seal]

First time I ever see Kevin not frowning as hard as he can

[simple hill]

Btw how did telling her to ignore his presence make her confess to her crimes

[weak phoenix]

Probably because the discipline accidentally made her mind slip up.

It's funny how Chapman pulled out a service weapon though.

Because he admitted at one point to ripping out a man's throat. So, he wouldn't really have a problem with overpowering anybody.

[simple hill]

He’s a British detective though why does he have a gun

[weak phoenix]

Probably might have been in an armed response unit at one point.

And considering how he's a ghoul under the Carmilla. There might have been some strings pulled to let him keep it.

[neon vine]

He looks so serene and wise, like a powerful wizard

[ionic cloud]

people see it 2 ways, either kevin just did like 8 succeses in a row, or she just accidentally proceeded to get like 20 1s for her willpower save

There is now a non-zero chance of a Chaos Dunk happening in Norfolk Wizard Game.

[deft urchin]

When watching the new episode my sister commented that America in Norfolk wizard game is very Invader Zim

[weak phoenix]

Look, when you got a setting where there are demon burgers and the wizards are the FBI.

It's gonna get Zim.

Just ignore the Wyrm

[weak phoenix]

Door and Boy went to British Tulley's. Bill went to American Tulley's.

Does anybody know how and when bill got a monkey and trained them to use a gun?

She is a completely made up character for that short

Ah, i am seeing this where there is none, thank

She's been on Eliphas's DA page for like a year

[simple hill]

maybe she's big d's ex

[simple hill]

oh shit

is Markus ||a mage||

[slow bay]

it's been a theory for a while

[simple hill]

[neon vine]

Well now i think Big D is a ||Mummy|| again

[gusty urchin]

||what do we think the 'outer being' marcus contacted is? My money's on one of the big 3 from WtA, unless owod mage has its own version of the abyss||

[gusty urchin]

also it was fun to see a couple lines reference umineko

[chilly seal]

WHERE

I need to use that to make my boyfriend more interested into actually watching Hunter the Parenting

Is that or they having an actual Kamen Rider themed episode to make him watch

[chilly seal]

Legit good D acting, specially during the

[bright aurora]

[graceful jay]

Alfa loves Umineko

[gusty urchin]

I was asleep till i got woken by a storm
It's just a couple small references, ||kitten mentions an unknown person x at one point, and d refers to the info he got from kevin about what tje ghoul is and isn't capable of as "red truths in kevin's blood"||

[bright aurora]

very based

love me some fukken umineko

[gusty urchin]

Same, i finished it earlier this year and it's already a personal fave

[prisma adder]

Old WoD has like a few different places called abyss

Most likely is the one related to clan Lasombra and obtenebration

I think it's implied a few times that it can be accessed by non obtenebration means?

A few times

[graceful jay]

(Obtenebration also doesn't exist anymore)

('s oblivion)

[split raven]

Oblivion accesses the same power source in theory though

(which is why I expect Baali to have it if they're ever added to V5)

[neon vine]

I think ||Marcus contacted whatever the Void Engineers are fighting||

[solemn lintel]

Hi yes I got to this part in the episode.
Uh.
Yeah wow that’s a yeah
||my only reference for the abyss is like, chronicles. But wow huh yeah wow||

Especially it being described as something ‘alien’. ‘Not monster not demon’

Neat!

[frail citrus]

... is this video made in source?

sonnova i think i recognize that cone in the shed

[split raven]

yeah the background seems to be them walking around in a custom gmod map or something like that

Oooooooh yeah-
Yeah that fu-
The red truth things

[chilly seal]

My boyfriend is trying to think in a way to make that into a game mechanic for our TTPRPG

[gusty urchin]

that's a pretty cool idea

[chilly seal]

Agreed!
He has still to test it

Atm he's going crazy on making maps on Dungeondraft for Foundry

[graceful jay]

It is

Karl made it and uploaded it a few months back

[ancient crescent]

Ah, nice. I didn't notice the author.

[unique ermine]

pretty sure ||marckus is a mage at this point, although it is possible to connect to the abyss without being one (hildebrandt recording)||

i was honestly expecting the ghoul to be ||guy chapman coming in for a drink||

||i’m also fairly certain the ghoul is grimal given she was near the vents when occam got taken out and we know she can use them||

||also that draught of domination mention definitely isn’t foreshadowing||

[unique ermine]

||it’s also possible the early contact with the abyss fucked up his ability to awaken maybe||

[ancient crescent]

||That's CofD stuff, not WofD. Mages work differently in both, and the Awakening Abyss isn't a thing in Ascension||

||The theory I've heard is he's not a Capital M Mage, but more like a Hedge Wizard.||

[unique ermine]

yeah that makes sense

[ancient crescent]

A bit like Occam apparently is

Honestly the various amusing misfortunes that happened to Brock in the pub episode map pretty well onto being hexed by mortal sorcery/linear magic

[deft urchin]

I thought anyone could do sorcery?

[simple hill]

Anyone can yes

Not sure about being able to do it unconsciously though

So it’s pretty much confirmed that whatever ||did on lord fatigue is likely not a ghoul right||

Since ||big d specifically mentions ghoul at best will be able to break bones with a punch||

And that thing did way way more damage

[deft urchin]

Yeah, ||with the mention of a domination potion, the werewolf idea seems even more likely||

[neon vine]

||Not directly a ghoul. The ghoul could’ve dominated something that could tear apart Fatigue like that though||

[simple hill]

Honestly given the ||fey court mention I’m seriously wondering if there’s some kind of fucked up changeling or an unseelie infiltrator||

Could the ghoul ||have done it without realizing their victim was a werewolf||

Like give a command of ||”go rough up fatigue, only for that guy to suddenly explode into furry killing machine and go and tear him apart||

[deft urchin]

||honestly that's my guess||

[simple hill]

Surprised that a ||werewolf would be susceptible to Domination||

[neon vine]

Aight with this episode i think the Ghoul is ||one of Markus’ friends. ||

||Harry, Elise, or Grimal, in descending order of likelihood||

[simple hill]

I think the ghoul is among us actually

[frail citrus]

I think you, the viewer at home, is the ghoul

[simple hill]

It could even be you

[neon vine]

It’s clearly Charlie

[simple hill]

How dare u

[neon vine]

That’s exactly what a ghoul would say!

Into The Cold Tesselation with you!

[simple hill]

Nooo

[neon vine]

Only until you sweat out the Vitae

[simple hill]

But fool that you are

For in your insipid ghoul hunt you have forgotten to account for a witch

Eat dispel magic

[graceful jay]

Amogus

[unique ermine]

||im certain on grimal honestly, only that has the necessary narrative impact and makes sense||

||we’re also meant to be able to deduce it from the first episode of the arc and grimal is noted to use the vents, and is in a room with vent access when occam gets beat||

[compact copper]

Watching the new episode

[compact copper]

Good episode

Though, I need to ask, ||was a missing brother ever mentioned before now?||

||I think it was implied that there were more brothers, but none that were lost like Anton was||

[weary plaza]

IWRC Markus's ||Missing Brother was mentioned back in Epp 1 or 2 as a warning||

[compact copper]

Oh I fully forgot then

[frail citrus]

That was super good

i need the next full episode now T-T

or norfolk wizard game, show me the funny monkey

[radiant drum]

1950's comic publishers where right, the people want great apes.

Also. I am still on the ||"Fatigue suddenly exploded"|| train until proven otherwise. Because it's funny.

[split raven]

after the new vid i'm on the ||Fatigue was suddenly exploded by a Tremere ghoul using blood sorcery|| train

[short cradle]

||detonate that old man like a gorey claymore||

[unique ermine]

is that a ||face and hand reaching out at the family in the background||

[frail citrus]

or is that || Anton ||

[compact copper]

Also like, so what do we think ||the thing Markus summoned was?||

||because Ngl, I don’t think it’s Markus’s alter or anything related to stuff like that. Primarily just because Big D would not talk about it like that if it was||

||D has interacted with mages before, he’s probably killed a couple. An alter is probably something he’s at least vaguely aware about with how knowledgeable he is||

[neon vine]

I think its || one of the things the Void Engineers are fighting||

||Threat Null||

||Or something similar. Not a Fallen, not anything part of The Triat. Something from the far, far edge of the Umbra||

[frail citrus]

I saw speculation it was || The Wyrm || which would be interesting

[neon vine]

Honestly i think WoD had a habit of making ||The Wyrm|| be behind everything nasty and i didn’t like that

[compact copper]

Also I really like the implication Big D was at one point banned from the holy sea but us somehow no longer banned

You think he threatened the pope?

[neon vine]

I think he divorced the pope and the pope got mad because divorce

[compact copper]

Probably yah

[simple hill]

Yeah sounds about right

[compact copper]

He single-handedly got the Catholic Church to legalize gay marriage and then immediately rescind its legality

[surreal crown]

The Big P fell for the Big D but the Big D can't be tamed, see? Neither Big W nor Big G can't control the Big nor its D.

Right, buddy

And don't forget

EVIL BURGER

Wait has the ghoul audiolog been posted here yet?

[simple hill]

Ye

[simple hill]

Hmmm

Could Big D possibly be a member of the Fallen

Of the Faustian faction

[split raven]

could explain his apparently incredibly long life, but i feel like there'd have been more signs at this point

we dont have any indication of him being anything other than just a non-vampire immortal(assuming his stories are true)

[simple hill]

I mean I was wondering since demons apparently love love humanity

And it would also fit his anti authoritarian bias

[neon vine]

Problem is that Demon isn't canon in 5e

[simple hill]

i'll stab 5e

but didn't he mention demons before

[graceful jay]

Demons can mean a lot of things in wod

[neon vine]

Yeah its a bit of a broad term

There’s The Fallen Elohim and then there’s all the other greeblies and such like the Banes, the Decani, certain types of plasmics, throwbacks, and various things that technically aren’t demons but are likely to be classified a such by Hunters and other occultists stapling together their notes from fear drenched remembrances

[graceful jay]

Other religions demons as well

[simple hill]

are onis a thing in wod

[neon vine]

Even other supernaturals do this

Its a recurring theme that the Garou regard vampires as a type of fomori

In fact the Garou tend to misclassify most things into their self-serving paradigms

[simple hill]

do vampires tend to misclassify most things into their self serving paradigm

[neon vine]

Not as much

Because Vampires largely don’t care about anything other than feeding and one-upping each other

[simple hill]

ah so werewolves are more prone to propaganda

[neon vine]

Yeah

[simple hill]

to hide their dog crimes

[neon vine]

(Which feeds my pet theory that the Triat is bullshit and its just their own localized consensus)

(That they clumsily apply to everything)

Vamps generally interact the most with various demons(in that they call them demons) among the WoD splats

[simple hill]

baali?

[neon vine]

Yeah

Probably some abyss mystics in the Lasombra too

The Inconnu also have dealings with demons

The Tzimisce Antediluvian also had a covenant with something that lived beneath Transylvania

[weary plaza]

This might be deperacated lore but the INcontu are technicaly a demonic cult/deep in a mess pact to keep them safe form hunters. wich i would say is more then just involved

Gone, Gone, The Form of Ham ↩️

[Reply to:](#1216227286177808584 message) The Inconnu also have dealings with demons

[simple hill]

I do wonder how old this man is

He’s got an 108 year old ex wife?

I suppose she was a ghoul but still

[graceful jay]

100%

Hence Garou are just "feral lupines" and the adhering to the book of Nod

Vampires usually describe things in simple temporal terms if it's not in their specific wheelhouse

[split raven]

the semi-official answer in the pre-V5 days was that WoD operates on hypertime, aka everything automatically switches to fit the paradigm of whatever game you're playing/whichever one is most important at any given moment

(or rather, to quote wikipedia quoting the DC comic that introduced the concept, "Hypertime is a network of alternate timelines that branch off from the DC Universe. These timelines sometimes overlap with each other, causing alterations in reality. Characters can cross from one timeline to another if needed. It has been analogized to a river network that branches out and then runs 'up stream' to feed back into itself before splitting off again.")

[neon vine]

More mass pact than a cult. And even then its only the council of twelve

They have a covenant with an Earthbound to defend their castle

[weary plaza]

"A World of Darkness" dose outright call them a demonic cult, but that is why Nal'kar said they wwere not sure of it was depreracated lore or not

[simple hill]

how do they enforce the "vampires can't use internet" law

[neon vine]

for the elders its usually tech illiteracy

the Nossies are the ones who are usually most tech savvy and they're among the most tight knit clans so they tend to act in concert anyway

so when the order comes down from the local Nosferatu primogens to purge all their data and take their servers offline, lots of Nosferatu did it

[simple hill]

yeah but how do any newly embraced kindred uh adjust

[split raven]

by force, if necessary

to be fair, using a smartphone/any touchscreen requires the Blush of Life, so when your phone stops working unless you rouse the blood, it's probably a bit easier to ween yourself off it

its also not a universal law, only the cam tends to enforce it and not even in every domain iirc

[simple hill]

Huh

Touch screens stop working eh?

That might be problematic for whole host of reasons

[split raven]

higher humanity eliminates the issue iirc, but, most touch screens rely on your body's own bioelectricity, and being dead kind of kills that

[simple hill]

Can thin bloods use tech then

[split raven]

ye

also, slight correction, i guess resistive touch screens are the most common now, and those work by sensing the pressure from you pushing on the screen, so they work while wearing gloves; this would also work for a dead hand

[graceful jay]

Humanity 8+ you are much more alive than dead

[simple hill]

i guess carrying a cell phone with you when you are a vampire though is probably a really bad idea

free Second Inquisition tracking device on your person

well not free you probably paid for those

maintaining humanity 8+ sounds like hell for a vampire too

unless you have an extremely understanding human partner who's willing to help out of goodness of their own heart

[graceful jay]

the no cell phone thing is mainly because in the time of the SI you are living under espionage rules yeah

[simple hill]

which would be like winning a lottery for a vampire but also you would probably piss off the local prince for the obvious glaring Masquerade breach who's hanging around you

i'm sure if you used celerity once to get somewhere really quickly, and you are carrying a cellphone on your person, it would immediately ping SI and flag you for being a potential vampire by using your location tracking data

if you are consistently online at night and never during the day that would also be another sign

[simple hill]

anarchs instead have like a dedicated misinfo unit right?

[neon vine]

Not really sure cellphone tracking works that way

[split raven]

just ghoul them masquerade breach resolved

[simple hill]

Feel like that would lower your humanity score though

[split raven]

depends on the chronicle tenants, in V5

[weary plaza]

Cellphone tracking is done a few ways, one is by the GPS phoining home and the otyher is just triangualtion baised on it's pings to nearby towers

[simple hill]

i think those two other detectives are masquerade violations

[frail citrus]

idk if they actually understand what's going on

[weak phoenix]

Nope

They probably think that Chapman through his 'connections' is getting special treatment as usual.

You know how it is. You suddenly get a new guy and are then told in private he knows people from the Yard.

[simple hill]

there is apparently one other ghoul at the office

wonder who that is

[weak phoenix]

Chief or his co-chief

Because those two guys were the head honcho's of the station.

[simple hill]

gotta be the co-chief I thiknk

[weak phoenix]

Yeah, it's always the scrawny guys who are ghouls.

[simple hill]

no because he says when referring to the ghoul: "If all they hear is a fake name and the Chief's own word--"

so the Ghoul can't also be the Chief

but maybe there's more than 3 guys at the office

[weak phoenix]

I mean it's a little podunk station.

In the middle of a territorial vampire war.

For the equivalent of a small town that nobody has probably heard of.

Dam.

The beef between the Sabbat, Anarch, and Camerilla over this town is sad.

[graceful jay]

[graceful jay]

Keep in mind that Mage makes a lot of assumptions that are basically demonstrably untrue anywhere outside a mage book

[weak phoenix]

"Okay, wait, so that crazy wizard behind the taco bell was wrong?"

"Yes, but also no. Was he right about some stuff? Yeah. Was he also wrong about some other stuff especially the thing about the werewolf? Yes."

"So, what do we do with what he told us?"

"We take with a grain of salt, but we also try to figure out if it's true."

[graceful jay]

[heady pine]

Interesting

[graceful jay]

For instance like

demonstrably, Consensus does not retroactively Make Things Work

No other creature besides Mages follow Consensus nor are affected by Paradox

[graceful jay]

Consensus and the WAAAGH! field are treated exactly the same way in-universe and by their respective fandoms

[frail citrus]

That is true but this was a vector for the end times from outside of consensus

[compact copper]

Yes

He will witness the murder of his friend by his father and awaken

[simple hill]

what if

all of markus' friends are ghouls

[weak phoenix]

I have done a long TL;DR for the video.

HTP News

• HTP is on a good roll. Bits from the latest and upcoming chapter have been shown.

• Changes in the script process to cut down on the long times for production.

• The audio logs are now going to be changed as subchapters and are getting the same quality/attention as the main chapters.

• They also are going to be in a state where there are regularish releases. (This is because the audiologs have gotten numbers equal to or even greater than the animated chapters).

• Latest audio log is going to be about Kevin and Chapman

Budget

• Adsense is down but the patreon has healthy numbers

• 19K USD per month for the Patreon

• Studio has gone up to nine people with full time employment plus a number of freelancers.

• Ideal goal for channel/studio stability is 23K.

• (If the budget goes up and past the 23K goal. Studio will have more monies to use in hiring more people for additional illustration, further production to the AP's, and the hiring of another full time animator.)

Norfolk/New AP News

• The AP takes less time compared to the subchapters and animated chapters

• Second AP being planned out, Fallout focused

• Titled: Rads to Riches: A Fallout Arkansas Actualplay

• Rads to Riches in the barely beginning stages and being created because of Earndil being a full time writer in Ogre now.

• (Norfolk is a personal project for Speaker; Rads to Riches is a personal project for Earndil)

Alfabusa Summoning

• Zero Viscosity went on a hiatus due to reception and Ogre's financial situation not being the best during its production.

• Might be resumed once everything slated for HTP is done.

• Majority of VO/VA is done for the next episode of ZV.

• ZV potentially only has two more episodes left.

GamesWorkshop/Space Marine in The Room

• No update/change of GW's zero tolerance policy

• Ogre does not want to risk anything from GW's potential legal action with anything 40K/Warhammer related

• Ogre currently in a wait and see approach for GW giving permission again for fan created animations.

And that concludes the state of the Ogre.

[unique ermine]

very cool

[radiant drum]

ARKANSAS MENTION HELL YEAH!

It's great that things are going well for Ogre.

Bah.

Ratmen just myth-story. Not real-real. Do not worry stupid man-thing heads over it.

[weak phoenix]

Yes-Yes. We are, uh, money-business people!

Great save-victory! Yes!

[simple hill]

[weak phoenix]

Man-thing should relax and enjoy juice-leaf. Juice-leaf very nice especially green-green juice-leaf? Iz good when warm-warm.

(Okay, I'm stopping. I think I did too much san damage. Mice-Rat play-lie is good-powerful.)

[radiant drum]

Why everyone thinking the best-best way now? Very odd-strange.

[weak phoenix]

I have started something that I may not be able to stop.

We’re in bby

1 fucking hour

Also my theory:

I’m the ghoul

I did that

[patent cargo]

Toby Fox presents The Ghoul Is You

[compact copper]

It

Begins

[frail citrus]

hang about. Is || Occam a fucking Solar Exalted. ||

[compact copper]

IM NOT DONE YET

BUT ITS PEAK

[split raven]

https://tenor.com/ruoIQhy3CQh.gif

that was so fucking good

[weak phoenix]

What the actual fuck.

Okay.

Okay.

[compact copper]

ITS PEAK

ITS PEAK

ITS SO PEAK

[weak phoenix]

I have one question

Just one

||Is there such a thing as Werewolf mercs willing to work with vamps? Or is this actually part of a werewolf plot?||

||Also, what the fuck was that eyeball thing that Marcus was looking at?||

[north crest]

It’s so peak

[split raven]

||Black Spiral Dancers are a tribe of Garou that have fallen to the Wyrm and are fully evil, they work with Pentex which is also known to employ Vamps||

[split raven]

||the Oculus Empyrean, which Occam talked about||

[weak phoenix]

||Oh.||

||Oh shit.||

[compact copper]

Also what the fuck ||can a werewolf dominate a person? Because Grimal’s story only really works if she’s the one who dominated her||

[weak phoenix]

||This is actually way worse isn't it?||

[compact copper]

||especially since Elise dominating her doesn’t make sense because her memory was clear until she got to the security room||

[frail citrus]

|| Why did D's eyes flicker there? ||

[compact copper]

||ALSO FUCK YAH I WAS RIGHT GRIMMAL WASNT THE GHOUL||

[compact copper]

That I think was just dramatic flair

[weak phoenix]

Either that

||Or something more ancient in D is about to come pissed off and angry at family being taken.||

[frail citrus]

that was great.

https://tenor.com/76RJ.gif

[weak phoenix]

||Like, uh, considering some of the stuff implied in other bits.||

[compact copper]

||could it be possible Matilda had something granted to her that could mimic a domination from the regent?||

[frail citrus]

unfortunately my hunger cannot be sated and i require more like I require air

[weak phoenix]

||She is a Black Spiral Dancer, right?||

[compact copper]

||also there was another Lycan with her. A werebear||

||probably the person she was referring to before she revealed herself||

[frail citrus]

i liked in general how as the episode got more serious the art got more defined

or more "On Model" as it were

[weak phoenix]

||Was the Werebear just with her the whole time in a way or were they outside?||

[compact copper]

Probably outside

[green geyser]

oh we have a thread

Nice

[compact copper]

||I doubt they’re an active infiltrater like her||

||based on how she implies their plan is, break in, murder everyone and take the data with force||

[weak phoenix]

||Does that mean at any moment before any of this started. Everyone was just being stalked by a werebear for just how long?||

[green geyser]

||I dunno much about WoD, how was Grimal's memory hurt if it was a Wereewolf?||

[frail citrus]

|| "Just cuz ya Can doesn't mean ya SHOULD!" ||

[compact copper]

||but yah how can a werewolf dominate a human?||

[green geyser]

||alos honestly I was expecting Wall to unexpectly return and run over the Garou||

[compact copper]

||could it be possible whatever vamp they’re working for can give her that ability somehow?||

[frail citrus]

|| welll there's some half and half situations... ||

[compact copper]

||CAN A WEREWOLF BECOME A GHOUL?!||

[weak phoenix]

||Like if this was going on even before D and company got kicked out of the Arcanum. This is really, really bad.||

[green geyser]

||Thankfully the data was destroyed||

||But otherwise yeah it doesn't seem good||

[compact copper]

||also what the fuck was that like, storm of butterflies she did?||

[weak phoenix]

||I know there was the lady that showed up after the Pytor fight. But was there also a Were just watching?||

[compact copper]

||is that another werewolf ability?||

[weak phoenix]

Moth storm actually

[compact copper]

||is that normal werewolf stuff is this more, werewolf+ghoul shit?||

[weak phoenix]

The domination?

Vamp/Ghoul

[compact copper]

No the moth storm

[weak phoenix]

That's from the Wyld

[compact copper]

Ah ok

[weak phoenix]

Like that is straight up from one of the totems.

[green geyser]

||is Markus a mage now btw||

||What did that eye thing do||

[compact copper]

||also yah so I guess it would make sense the regent wouldn’t mention that her super secret ghoul infiltrator was also a FUCKING WERWOLF to Kevin||

[compact copper]

||probably bond with him like it did Fatigue before||

||Like Occam said it works whenever it wants to work||

||I don’t think this means he’s awakened now||

[weak phoenix]

||I mean I don't think she would tell anybody about that. Because if you were tell everyone in your court that you have a Werewolf under employ.||

[frail citrus]

||No, but i think werewolves have gifts that allow them to Dominate. ||

[weak phoenix]

||Well, it's vampire politics. How easy would it be to basically overthrow the regent under the excuse she was selling out the Kindred?||

[compact copper]

Oh ok

[frail citrus]

||Werewolf the apocalypse isn't my forte||

[compact copper]

||so yah it does seem like Matilda was acting alone then||

||everything matches if she was both the “ghoul” and a werewolf||

||also who the fuck is Shuck mentioned at the end?||

[weak phoenix]

||Can a black spiral dancer even get into the Umbra?||

||Black Shuck||

||But, uh, he's supposed to be like fucking folklore at this point?||

||So, uh, I don't know.||

[frail citrus]

|| THE LEGENDARY BLACK DOG OF NORFOLK ||

||https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Black_Shuck_(WTA)||

[green geyser]

oh no

[frail citrus]

|| So here's what i'm thinking so far. These werewolves have snuck into the arcanum because they're looking info on the dog. Whoever Stig is, they're also a member. Sowed some chaos, tried to false flag them to thinking there's a vampire present. Whoever the glasswalker on mission control is... well something stinks in norfolk ||

[weak phoenix]

||Okay, so, this was or was not a Black Spiral attack?||

[frail citrus]

|| Probably not. you don't need to be a lick to hate a hunter ||

[weak phoenix]

Very true

[compact copper]

||thing is the regent definitely has someone working for them in the Arcanum. And at the end of the day, the past days events has definitely cleared everyone of suspicion. Also why would a bunch of werewolves be after hunter data anyway? That’s what the regent wants. I think them kidnapping Marcus for info on Shuck is just them making good of a bad situation. The bird guy did basically say “it’s a bust but let’s take him just in case”||

[weak phoenix]

||Probably to sell off the Hunter Data to interested parties.||

||Like, this was data that pretty much info on every small time and big time hunter group in Norfolk.||

[frail citrus]

|| No, i think they're looking for someone as well. Werewolves hate vampires historically. ||

|| It's like the one advantage we have, there's barely ever both in one spot. ||

[weak phoenix]

||They do hate each other.||

Man, Door is gonna flip his shit.

||Would be funny if Marcus getting kidnapped is what gets Hunter Corax and Vulkan to make their appearance.||

||Like, ya know, Door just decides to call them up in a panic and asks them to come as soon as they can.||

[green geyser]

||I half expected Door to run over Matilda once they got outside||

[weak phoenix]

||Door stayed home along with Boy.||

[green geyser]

||Didn't he drive off after being locked out?||

[weak phoenix]

||Oh shit, yeah.||

||And then they went to go eat burgers.||

||The Pentex owned burgers...||

_>

[green geyser]

||I do wonder what Hunter!Vulkan and Corax are like||

[weak phoenix]

Something tells me Door and Boy are having their own problems right now.

[green geyser]

Regardless, great episode

[frail citrus]

cannot wait for more HtP

[weak phoenix]

I wanna see what the coalition grunts look like.

Because, oh boy, once that call gets placed.

All shit is gonna break loose.

[green geyser]

||Maybe the reason Grimal can't remember is Delirum?||

[weak phoenix]

||But that only works if the Were is transformed though.||

||And a fully transformed wolf would've been caught on camera.||

||Unless Grimal can't remember because she was smoking the joint.||

||And then when the Were came back into the vents. The combination of the joint and delirium worked from there?||

Huh.

Hey, so

||Since it was a Werewolf that did this and nobody wasn't a ghoul in the chapter house?||

||Then, uh, who is it then? Or is it something that's not a person that instead is the ghoul?||

[compact copper]

||I imagine it’s just Matilda and the “ghoul” was a confusion by the regent telling Kevin she has operatives in the chapter house||

[weak phoenix]

||Okay, so, to understand correctly.||

||Kevin got the wrong wires. But then said wires pretty much pushed up the timeline for the werewolves and lead to them prematurely starting off the fireworks.||

[green geyser]

||Also credit to Remold for destroying the data, it was a smart move||

[weak phoenix]

||If only they had any silver bullets.||

||Or if someone in the chapter house knew lunar celtic martial arts.||

[gusty urchin]

Very cool episode, i liked it a lot

[short cradle]

HOLY SHIT

||I did not expect the murder mystery arc to end so soon, what else do they have planned for the next two episodes ...||

[compact copper]

Also god I’m so happy ||Grimal wasn’t a ghoul||

[chilly seal]

||THE THEROIES WHERE CORRECT, THE WEREWOLF, MARKUS, YES, ||YEEEEEEEES

|| It has been SO LONG Since i got HYPED BECAUSE OF A FIGHT ||

[green geyser]

||I'm curious if Anton is ever gonna be relevant again.||

[graceful jay]

It's very funny I know the answers

[weak phoenix]

||Well, we're probably gonna get introduced to the coalition. So, we might either get a government affiliated hunter, bog standard tactical operator, stereotypical MIB agent, or a church hunter.||

||And since Marcus got taken to god knows where in the Umbra. Probably some shit going on in there too.||

||Let's hope he doesn't make a deal with something in if he tries to escape.||

[compact copper]

You should tell me specifically
