Combo Disciplines

[Sethron]

For Clarifying Random Combination Disciplines that need calls made to be 'clearer' or more reasonable. Red text indicates a direct change to the power that is contradictory to its original printed rule.

ALPHA'S GLINT [Council of Primogen 105] (Animalism 4, Fortitude 3)

When using this power, the vampire does not actually shine or sparkle.

Charisma + Animal Ken vs the target's WP, both Dif 6.

This power may only be used on someone already acting aggressively to the user. This is combat actions, verbal threats, intimidation, or aggressive power use. A polite and respectful disagreement does not count for this power, but any of the above used on people you are protecting or allied with does. Furthermore, if the intended target has caused a to make a frenzy test this scene, they are an acceptable target.

Cowed in this context means they must socially submit to the vampire's desires and cease argument or public disagreement, and may not initiative combat with the user or attempt to use any aggressive power on them.

This power breaks for all affected targets if you enact any aggressive actions against anyone while the power is in effect.

What are the two disciplines and levels of those disciplines needed to use this power?

[Sethron]

Good question. Added.

This is up on the site in Play Hub>House Rules>Combo/Creation

[Ikon]

Can we please get a list of the Combo Disciplines active in Game?

[Wit]

Given that it is literally a few days from a change in staff, I believe this should be resolved after that point.

[Ikon]

Very true. I wanted to bump it up to keep it close at hand for when A staff is chosen.

[Just Evan]

Agreed. A repository of combo disciplines and anything homebrew currently in play or approved but no longer in play would be a real boon all around. Maybe a section in the houserules specifically for ECC specific stuff next to the standard combo disciplines?

[Ascanio Giovanni]

While I'm not horribly opposed to this, this thread is not the place to discuss it. This was a thread created to be a repository of combo discipline clarification and this discussion should be moved.

This is the 'Combo Disciplines' thread. It is the exact place to have this discussion, and make a request for a comprehensive list of such powers in-use at game.

I think Jaron was referencing my request to have homebrew powers that are not explicitly combo disciplines listed as well. In my defense, I feared starting a second thread for what I thought amounted to "oh yeah, and a side of fries" might have been seen as passive-aggressive or pedantic.

In any case, I'm content to revisit after elections.

[Ascanio Giovanni]

I'm saying that this particular thread was not meant for discussion. This is a clarification thread for staff to post new clarifications on combo disciplines as issues arose and calls were made. It really should have been locked. We can have this discussion but it should really be moved out of the House Rules sub board and into the Rules and Clarifications general board in its own thread. Can we please not continue this here?

[Webmonkey]

This is just a 'holding area' for combo disciplines until I post them to the main site.

[Iris "Chases-Rainbows"]

People can totally discuss things on a discussion thread (that is what these actually are, the non-discussion posts are on the main site).

Besides, the ST can just add to the first post if they want to. They have that power. Or at least the webmonkey does. Discussing this thing will not make a rule or change lose it's place, or whatever else you are scared of happening to happen.

This is entirely a non-issue.

Stop trying to make it one.

Rules and Clarifications - 1 Viewing
This board is for the Vampire Staff to post clarifications and rules change announcements.


^ This is what defines this thread as not a discussion thread. It actually should have been locked. Organization is good for the site. It's also why there's usually a "Something Clarification Discussion" thread created, but I imagine the staff will split the conversation when they feel like it, so it isn't a problem. They have the power to move this conversation anywhere they please.

[Ascanio Giovanni]

I am totally not trying to stifle this discussion. I was just asking if this conversation could be moved to its own thread somewhere not meant to be a place for staff to post information. It is an organizational matter. Maybe it's just my OCD nature coming up here but it really bugs me to see things in the wrong places. I just think that when official announcements are mixed with discussion points, it starts to become unclear as to what is the announcement and what is being discussed. I will continue to politely ask that this discussion be moved, for my own sanity if nothing else. If it isn't a big deal to move, then this should be a relatively small request.

At this point since the only custom discipline is already transferred to the site the Camarilla Vampire staff would be better served by simply starting a new thread. That's up to them however. I'll do whatever they wish in that regard, assuming they don't mod their own threads themselves.

Well said Toni.

So hey I grabbed the wrong post to ask the question on. Are we so wired from all the discussion that it had to continue this much?

Make a new thread and Lock this one.

End. Of. Issue.
