Episode 5: The Sword of Caine

[@christofromuald703]

" We are born of the blood, made men by the blood, undone by the blood, our eyes are yet to open, *fear the old blood* "

[@docette2015]

I think even the Sabbat looks at human politics and goes "dude, that's messed up." XD Interesting stuff as always!

Please keep uploading contents about vtm, your podcast is a treasure for all vtm lovers

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Nick Kenshin Thank you very much for such a lovely compliment! I plan on making much more VtM content for you all, so don’t worry.

[@lucassmith4524]

Word.

[@nobody-cr7to]

“And for the sake of Caine stop looking at me like that, we are still talking about the Sabbat not the current UK political climate!” I just spat my drink all over the desk XD

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Good! 😜

[@DonnyDunne]

As a Brit, I for one would welcome our Kindred overlords, it literally couldn't be worse under their ruling.

[@fluidthought42]

​@@DonnyDunne It'd depend on the Clan, everything's cool until the Baali and Ukip decide to form a coalition government.

This specific episode helped me finally understand the "KANT WAS NOT A NODDIST PHILOSOPHER!" line from Hunter the Parenting.

[@gadflycafe]

Now I really can't wait for their source book!

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Gadfly Cafe Neither can I! There is a lot more to The Sabbat than most people make them out to be, so I wanted to do my part and correct that.

[@NoadiArt]

"Black Hand is the Sabbat military." Well, that's what they'd like you to think anyway.

[@JohnSmith-xm4dk]

I'm watching this because I was wondering what a pander with access to vissisitude and spiritus (Both disiplines found primarily within the sabbat) would be like. Just turn on horrid form plus the wild beast power and wreck anything in combat. For those of you unaware, horrid form (level 4 ability of vissisitude) is a sort war form tzimisce use in combat. It causes it causes all your physical attributes to increase by 3, and all brawling damage is increased by one. The wild beast, is the level 5 ability of spiritus, and causes a vampire's strength to increase by 3, dexterity by 2, and stamina by 2. Additionally, vampire fang damage inflicts an extra die of damage, and their claws do aggrevated damage (protean 2? Never heard of it). Plus 6 strength, 5 dexterity, and 5 stamina. Granted it comes at the total sacrifice of your social stats but holy crap. This also does not take into consideration any of the physical disiplines you may have learned, your base physical stats, or the level 3 ability of spiritus "aspect of the beast" where you could up one of your physical stats even further for turns equal to a manipulation occult roll diff. 7. However if you do this then let it be known that you're basically looking at your storyteller during a combat encounter and saying, "You know what? Screw you, screw you and your whole game. I'm strong enough to physically challenge an antideluvian. The fuck are you going to do about it?!"

[@LoreByNightVtM]

I would hope a decent ST would not allow that to happen in the first place 😂😂

[@fluidthought42]

Watch out, a sufficiently pissed off storyteller could drop the Technomancy on you. Or worse, werewolves.

[@claytonwhitacre1752]

After the Ravnos' antideluvian went on a rampage, I imagine that the sect's ranks have bolstered immensely.

[@Makingthebullet]

Praise Caine!

Excelente podcast, lo escuché todo hoy en Spotify..

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Fernando Carstens I’m glad you enjoyed it!

[@duemender9780]

I absolutley love these videos and plan to watch them all including future videos. But if i could offer some critique, i would suggest slightly lowering the background music so that your voice comes out clearer. I have watched the video several times to hear the same line and fiance just doesn't hear some lines. Wonderful work all together though. Please continue making videos.

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Due Mender Thanks for the feedback, I’ll keep that in mind for the future 😊

[@jamesprice6015]

It would be interesting if someone played a character who was a former member of the Sabbat and actually try to seek redemption.

[@BrokenEnglish25]

Sabbat games are my favorite.

[@horusrage]

Love the sabbat hopefully a book for them will be out for v5

[@LoreByNightVtM]

🤞🏻

[@tomtom7734]

I just finished the blood cult book, rather than read about cam or anarchs I’d be more interested in sabata.

[@flareinc7413]

The reference to the UK politics made me laugh out loud. A very good analysis. Me and my cotarie thank you.

[@lucassmith4524]

You do great work. Keep it up.

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Thank you!! 😊

[@shanehart1939]

Actually pretty impressive to switch the pronunciation of Camarilla every time you say it

[@someonetookmyusename]

Awesome videos! I’m new to the game, and as much as I’m loving the rules and the setting, the books are ...a little bit of a mess. But man, these videos are great for getting all the basic lore on one subject at a time! And the top notch presentation is just the cherry on top! Keep up the great work!

[@LoreByNightVtM]

I consider that a mission accomplished then! Thanks so much for the feedback and praise. Really appreciate it 😊

[@sintechnics7838]

Just started tonight five episodes in this awesome

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Thanks so much! 🥰

[@byakuyaaizen827]

Cool video, but the music is way too loud.

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Well lucky for you this is an older episode and it gets much better!

[@anyoneatall3488]

What do you think about crhonicles of darkness

[@LoreByNightVtM]

Can't comment really, as I have never looked into it

[@anyoneatall3488]

@@LoreByNightVtM try it some time, i'd love to hear what you think about it?

[@MrBrimbles]

I've been trying to listen to this video in the background as I cook stew and an omelette, but the music overpowers your voice and is very distracting. Makes for muddled audio.

[@osirisgem]

The background music make this unlistenable.

[@roselisesullivanbarrett]

I like it =w=;;; but I am one person. I understand auditory overwhelm and balancing is an accessibility issue and I agree that it would probably suit listeners more to make sure that the music never goes above half the volume of the lower speaking range
