I'm surprised nobody pointed this out, but I love Serif's distraction tactics. She always gets people to talk about their own stuff, and when asked about her own stuff she diverts the attention from it by asking more question about the other person, and it seems to work well, especially with isaac. I really can't wait to see all the skeletons she's hiding. She's clearly very smart and secretive. Fuego dropping the kill him please was sooo unexpected.

I love Isaac's practicality when Annabelle tries to stir up the Anarch 'down with the Camarilla!" spiel. "I can move. I don't have to fight." New York IS Camarilla territory and Panhard *is* fairly reasonable for a Prince. She's far from a LaCroix or a Vannevar.

I loved this whole dialog with Annabelle on the second part, especially Ray and Isaac. Annabelle knows nothing about what is a True Camarilla. What the Los Angeles crew faced was a weak Court that fled San Diego and tried to stablish in Los Angeles. The Camarilla in NY is formed by a group of war veterans that fought the Sabbat on the 90's. It is for the best to let them rot in Manhatthan, messing with them is like poke a wasp nest.

could be an interesting character concept, Tzimisce fledgeling who has been completely ousted from whatever 'their' place was, so now they're compulsively clinging at anything they can find or take with them, resulting in them becoming hoarders or pack-rats. I'm imagining dark academia clashing with trailer-park trash. Just a decaying RV filled to bursting with paintings, classical literature and knick-nacks.

[@elijahculper5522]

51:58. Aabria is amazing at being super funny without detracting from the horror. She must have planned that one liner as soon as Jason described the NPC and she worked it in to the conversation in a delightfully funny and creepy way. She’s really shining this episode. Dare I say she’s on fuego.

“Our trauma talks to us in the most literal sense. You know - that voice in our heads that tells us to do the things. And his name is Jason Carl.” 🤣

Aabria's Fuego breaks the mold of what you expect a Ventrue to be, and yet you can see glimmers of the archetype in there interpreted differently yet still resonant.

[@tudornaconecinii3609]

For sure. "stick to and protect my community" is a relatively Brujah goal, but her perspective on why she has that goal is more Ventrue than Brujah. It actually reminds me more of how Greed thought of his employees (FMA), if anything.

[@onemoregodrejected9369]

ngl I felt a bit betrayed when she used Rey to kill the guy. Rey could have denied, he is a one dot composure Gangrel so controling himself is not his forte, specially when feeding, a little push, a little temptation and he drinks him dry. She should have drinked him dry herself, not use Rey.

Seeing Alex act completely different with Erica than in LA is great. He truly looks and sounds like another person. This series has taken a bit more time to get into its groove, but I think it's finally hit its stride. Because Annabelle appeared and started talking about Victor, I stopped and watched the rest of LA by Night season 5. Definitely worth watching that whole series. I unfortunately only found it last year, but I am very happy I did. B Dave Walters as Victor was incredible. Alex as Jasper was great. Hope to see more familiar faces as this series progresses.

[@pendotxl822]

I really like Rey and Isaac pushing back against Annabelles agenda. For them this random person is coming from somewhere and tries to rally stuff up in a "calm" city and trying to incite a literal war based on her viewpoint. This will independent on what the Camarilla might have in store certainly affect the entire city and endanger all of them pretty much "just for the sake of it". Especially since they (as yet confirmed) have much less of a vested interesst in the anarchs continuing their rule than the LA crew had (ex Camarilla, undisputed Baron of the Valley, Jaspers Labyrinth). Annabelles entry in the ecosystem isnt really that much different to what Vannevar did and i really hope they keep on pushing this angle of not falling into line to her selfrightousness and questioning the moral highground that Annabelle views herself upon. Not yet getting warm to Fuego and Serif but we are afterall just in the third episode of a first season, so they will certainly be developing as characters by a lot. (just to make it clear so nobody confuses this, nothing of this is directed against the wonderfull actors we got this season again, but only against the fictional characters they portray) very intrigued to see how this is gonna develop

[@grimjudgment6527]

I'm starting to quite like this crew already. The way all the characters of the coterie behave? I've seen people just like them quite a few times, so this whole setup to me is just as familiar as a bottle and a glass. I can tell you that this story is going to end in a lot of unhappy compromise between unhealthy backstabbing. Serif and Fuego will actually butt heads sooner or later whem her destructive side meets Fuego's prptective side. You can already see Isaac and Fuego hitting it off poorly Rey while absolutely making the party dislike him at first will actually be the one everyone can rely on. He's a prick, but he's a straight shooter. Either Fuego is gonna use Rey as a pawn or Rey is going to snap on her for manipulating him, and Rey is actually the most human out of the coterie, which is funny since he also was the first to drain a vessel. I'll be watching the coterie's relationship with bated breath. Watch for signs of betrayal early.

[@jamesd5842]

Annabelle's self righteousness always rubbed me the wrong way, and I never found her all that persuasive. Would love to see an elder come in and put her in her place a little between power and knowledge bombing of the bigger picture. I do kind of like how she has basically become Carver though. Also, "And you think all of things you know as a human..." That made me laugh, considering that's basically Annabelle's entire schtick

[@Peecamarke]

@@jamesd5842 Annabelle’s self-righteousness didn’t rub me any worse than the SI’s religious zealots, Camirilla Prince’s birth right belief, or the Sabbat’s might makes right belief. They’re all flawed but dynamic perspectives that can look good or bad depending on the context/environment they’re in. I appreciate her role in the Anarchs home turf like LA vs Camirilla turf like NY, she does a good job of highlighting how/where the idealistic, existential vamps fit within the diff spaces of the various powers and the actress does a good job at portraying an idealistic activist whose turned into a vamp and how they rationalize and adapt their world view to it. It’s also refreshing see someone portray the charismatic Brujah leader type with good intentions as oppose to the temperamental muscle head you often see with Brujah portrayals

[@Peecamarke]

@@grimjudgment6527 I appreciate Rey for his loud, straight-to-the-point demeanor it adds a nice flavor to the group but you could argue Fuego and Isaac are just as “human” depends on your perspective but I fear he’s going to learn kindred use subterfuge and social gymnastics a lot for a reason in VTM (or else might as well be Wws lol ) and also ST’s tend to punish players for killing and attacking right away instead being more tactical. FYI, I would temper my expectations for character dynamics, a lot of viewers get upset when the characters don’t do what they expect due to it being more improvised than a plot driven script with tropes and etc

[@leonatos40k]

@@Peecamarke The real issue with Annabelle is that she is not an idealist, like the Brujah of Carthage were, or the Prometheans or even those following the philosophy of entelechy, she is an iconoclast only seeking to destroy the people or institutions in power simply because they are in power. She had the ability to evolve as a character and stay in LA to make sure the free states don't deteriorate like they did under McNeil. Her self righteousness rubs people simply because she is a fledgling who spat college campus rethorics against beings decades or centuries her elder and everyone treated her like she is this saviour figure that the movement has been waiting for, when in fact brujah like her are what 90% of the clans modern embraces look like.

I love how Aabria is breaking the Ventrue stereotype!

[@elijahculper5522]

Kind of. But she also did just convince a goon to do her dirty work for her. That’s Ventrue as hell. And I kind of doubt that there’s not something about the un-gentrified Bronx that is very lucrative for her personally. She’s just a different kind of Ventrue. Give her a couple decades and she’ll be just like the rest.

@@elijahculper5522 That’s what the poster said, breaking the Ventrue stereotype doesn’t mean she’s not acting like a Ventrue, just a type we rarely see portrayed

Is it bad I want to see carver again? He did say he was going east. I just wanna see taliesin as a vamp again

[@deeplovelydark]

you and me both! I didn't even occur to me that it might be possible! I'll cry blood if he guest stars again!

In all seriousness, remake this episode, throw Erika out, put Taliesin in.

I was really skeptical coming into a new series after LA by Night but this episode really sold me and killed any sort of “raaah new thing not like old thing!” I had in me

[@codybarnes1531]

Love Erika, hate Annabelle and her naive politics in VTM What happens when she runs into the wrong Licks? Baby B: Guys Im an Anarch and want to take out the Cam Sabbat: Us too! Molotov? Baby B: Its like they get me Sabbat: Yeah were gonna burn this place down and go eat a high school Bball game and then play bloody free court wanna come? Baby B:....EAT?...but what about the Masquerade? Sabbat: Whats a Masquerade? We're the Sword of Caine!

[@Peecamarke]

I mean, she IS a Brujah, that IS suppose to be their fatal flaw or else they would all be uncorrupted kindred and I see that as being her fatal flaw that rounds out her character and her morality very situational because of that lol

[@codybarnes1531]

@@Peecamarke Fair, Fair... im just talking shit. Ishiis baby Brujah is just such an angsty white knight in a world of real monsters im waiting for it to catch up with her. Sooner or later shes gonna have eat somebody and then shes gonna realize what she really is what they ALL are.

[@NinjaDeviant]

@@Peecamarke She let a drug dealer who'd hurt youngsters go. That isn't a Brujah wanting to be protect humanity. Annabelle as a character is incredibly poor in my tenure playing WOD I've never seen such a perfectly good actor play such a bad character.

[@charlesphillips9063]

Every time for this series I have seen Alex Ward, and expected him to say he's playing Jasper. Even though I know he's now playing Isaac. Such a strong episode adding a bit of L.A flavor. Can't wait for more.

[@PapaSMURFFS]

I totally expected when Schreknet came up for him to say something like "I don't know, but Jasper would" or something like that.

[@duncant6364]

“Unliving Color” feels like a joke Baron Abrams would’ve made last series

[@ThomasUfnalCrowlake]

With how we've seen Fuego's Beast act (nudging her towards power more than blood) and how she's constantly been acting as a temptress, I wouldn't be surprised to see her revealed as Setite (pardon, Ministry), Baali or other such lineage. Or at the very least there's something unusual about her supernatural situation.

[@Alphademongel]

My guess is she's a high-functioning Sabbat. Richter's malkavian mentioned to Isaac "You aren't one of [the Sabbat], but they might be one of you." hinting to me that one of the coterie is Sabbat. Her conversations with her Beast aren't really argumentative and she hasn't disagreed or tried to reason away what her Beast is telling her to do, instead usually agreeing with it to some degree and even taking pride in what it tells her. She heavily considered killing that man in Richter's night club, and only decided not to because she "needed him", and here we see her pushing Rey to murder as well. We also know that until recently, New York was Sabbat territory and they were pushed out by the Camarilla...a strangely similar situation to mortal gentrifiers which she's shown to despise. I'm probably grasping at straws, but if I'm right she's playing it REALLY well.

[@elijahculper5522]

@@Alphademongel I love this theory. I hadn’t thought of it but it does make sense.

[@deeplovelydark]

@@Alphademongel That would be an awesome twist! I wanted to see a Sabbat being a main character in a chronicle like this! And a Ventrue antribitu? Aabria is such a phenomenal roleplayer that I am confident she can pull off any twist!

[@dungeonsanddobbers2683]

@@Alphademongel What do we know about Fuego? 1. She lied about not knowing her sire or clan (she mentions in an earlier episode she didn't know what clan she was, and IIRC strongly implies she was Embraced and left to figure things out for herself. While in this episode she states she's Venture, mentions that she knows her sire (can't recall if she named them) but that they don't talk) 2. She's always making a show of her power, constantly forcing her will on others. Whether that by be use of Dominate, or by making suggestions to others (e.g. asking Rey to "kill him for me") 3. The only disciplines we've seen her use are Dominate and Presence, both of which are very common, but only found together as Ventrue disciplines. However... 4. Both Dominate and Presence can be acquired with a character's Predator Types, and the way Fuego hunts suggests she's a Siren which would give her access to Presence I'm undecided as to whether she's Camarilla/Anarch/Sabbat just yet, however (ATM) I _strongly_ suspect she's not actually a Ventrue but a Lasombra.

[@DracoSuave]

@@dungeonsanddobbers2683 The lack of prey selection is a subtle 'not actually ventrue' vibe, but Ministry... hrmmmm... though why would a Minister be hidden in an Anarch state... Aabria's body language when it gets to Rey's convictions?

Darn it Issac (Alex)! I knew i should have sketched up that hypothetical house for him via social media, i had a interesting triple houses in Port Morris to use as his "base" ( im a little familiar with the neighborhood especially the towers being built up) Rey ( Joey) you gotta change the Panda in the Yaris into a Gangrel symbol now. =P Jason Carl: keep on keeping on ( toasts withjj wine ) keep on "taking notes" and rolling the potential story forks forward. Fuego/Margo: ALL THE BIG HAIR!!!! Serif: Tag the High Rises (theres like 5 of them), Issac dont care

[@6874metallica]

Good episode! I think a really cool cameo to have later in the show would be Christof Romuald, the protagonist of Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption. He is in New York near the end of the game, and it would be really cool to see a 800 year old Brujah.

[@VandalAudi]

A Brujah less burdened by useless rebellion against the status quo.
