*bouncey bounce bounce* Weeee... we got Bob, we got Bob! Bob (goddice) is the crazy, weird, nifty dude who GMs the Champion games I've been babbling to you guys about on and off again! He and I just recently finished off my Vampire character... and now we're debating the finer details of why I can't have a kitty cat who's been embraced so that she can live as long as my vampire does? I'm very much on the losing end of this battle, but ya know what? I'm so hyper it's still entertaining. But yeah.
2303`19 DeathKitten Dizi: ...and yeah. One, are animals able to be embraced? Like if one wanted a pet that would theoreticly last a lifetime?
2303`32 DeathKitten Dizi: ah
2303`33 DeathKitten Dizi: fun
2304`48 Modus Nick: Technically, there's nothing to say you couldn't try, but you can't really communicate the experience to an undead kitty -- and it'd probably get fried in the sunlight pretty darn fast.
2306`25 DeathKitten Dizi: hmmm... so either make sure it's locked securely in the house, or don't bother to try it. Or at least wait 'til one has the ability to easily communicate with animals... since one may eventually develope such a power
2306`45 Modus Nick: That's a GM way of saying no.
2306`54 DeathKitten Dizi: oh, okay
2307`06 DeathKitten Dizi: ...so no immortal kitty, check
2307`28 Modus Nick: Based on the question in the Storyteller's Handbook, people have asked for weirder things.
2307`34 DeathKitten Dizi: ...oh?
2308`07 Modus Nick: Like, what happens when you embrace a Risen (zombie) ... snide answer from the guys at White Wolf "you get a mouthful of fetid corpse-blood and one pissed off Risen"
2308`28 DeathKitten Dizi: *snickers*
2310`19 DeathKitten Dizi: ....but why don't you want me to have a little vampiric kitty? *big sad eyes with a pout*
2311`03 Modus Nick: 'cause it'll get squashed quickly. You didn't buy anything in Animalism.
2311`11 DeathKitten Dizi: point
2311`38 DeathKitten Dizi: ...but if I were to add that in at a decent level with experience points... why couldn't I then?
2312`31 Modus Nick: You have no way of controlling a cat, vampiric or otherwise. Ever known a cat that does EXACTLY what its owner wants?
2313`08 DeathKitten Dizi: ...but if my level of communitcation was good enough, I could make kitty understand it's in ~her~ best interest to trust me on this one?
2314`01 Modus Nick: Very difficult. Even with Animalism 1, the cat is an independent creature.
2314`47 DeathKitten Dizi: *wonders if she should continue being a brat and debating this, or if she should move onto a more serious question*
2315`42 Modus Nick: Without saying no, I'm saying no.
2316`21 DeathKitten Dizi: ...and without saying "but you're a big fat meanie who won't let me do anything" (because it'd be a lie) I am saying you're a big fat meanie who won't let me do anything. ;)
2317`12 Modus Nick: It'd simply convince the hunters you're dangerous and they need to destroy you, no matter the cost.
2317`52 DeathKitten Dizi: ...because I have a vampiric kitty cat?
2318`39 Modus Nick: Yes. You took a sweet, innocent creature and turned it into an evil, horrible, bloodsucking parasite.
2319`29 DeathKitten Dizi: ...and how is that different from taking a sweet innocent girl from her parents and turning her into a evil horrible bloodsucking parasite?
2321`34 Modus Nick: A matter of degrees. Hunters need to feel there's something pure and untouchable. Taking a puppy dog or kitty cat would convince them it's a plot to turn Petco into a bastion of vampiric subversiveness, with everything from the pet bunny to the guinea pig becoming a potential source of the taint.
2322`50 DeathKitten Dizi: :-P Okay, okay... *drops the subject* However, am I allowed to share this lovely little debate in my LJ for people to read? :) I lost horribly, but yeah... still entertaining to me.
2323`08 Modus Nick: Sure. :)
2323`22 DeathKitten Dizi: :)
Oh, and yay! I'm going to see x2 after getting off work friday night... weee. Fandangoed the tickets at work tonight... Am going with Colin, James (jrl3001), and Joe... and we'll see what trouble we can get into from there. I have a feeling I ~still~ won't have my hair with it's white bangs by then... oh well. Maybe I'll do that later.
My scene partner doesn't want to do the great scene we found of God and Lucifer chatting. *pouts* I wanted to play the prince of darkness... I mean it's a really cool scene too, they actually do a fairly good job portraying things as I can picture it between the mess in the bible (as translated to english from who knows what between it and the original) and my own personal views of things. Oh well, if I can, I want to find the whole play the scene came from, if for no reason other than to read the whole thing and have it. Weeee.
