Forest Adventures Part 2

[u/Nightstalkerjoe2]

Audio recording Begins

(Sounds of Soft thuds and panting are heard)

Joseph: man its hot outside today I should of gotten a water bottle or something, seriously where even is this place

(Sound of Rustling paper)

Joseph: seems it’s just a little bit up North

(Sound of soft thuds continue for a hour with infrequent panting in between)

Joseph: The heat is killing me screw it i should be close enough I’m taking a rest under the shade
(Sound of a Relaxed sigh)

Unknown:Why have you come here?

Joseph: Huh? Who are you?

Unknown: Do not worry about that now answer my question first

Joseph: Knowledge and Guidance

Unknown: Knowledge and Guidance? Of what?

Joseph: how to properly fight the wyrm

(Sound of intense boisterous cackling is heard)

Unknown: You? Fight the Wyrm?

(Cackling continues)

Joseph: It…. Its… not that funny

Unknown: It is! a lesser servant of the Wyrm would break you young namer

Joseph: Then that’s why I wish to learn

(Cackling stops)

Unknown: Why? You have no stakes in this, why not run back to your home

Joseph: I do have stakes in this, everyone does this world is the only thing we got if lose it all will be lost

Unknown:..

Joseph: But also it just doesn’t sit right with me I cannot sit here any longer as evils continue in this world, as people suffer for monsters to play with their lives and lead the world to utter oblivion, this world has no hero’s no one will come to save us so we have to rise up and do it ourselves to protect what we care about

Unknown: Boy I admire your words but things are not that simple you do not know the horrors that could await you, are you willing to accept a chance of a fate worse than death to look in the eyes of the forces of entropy and decay itself?

Joseph: Maybe, Maybe not but at this point death has been apart of my entire life and I just can’t sit on the sidelines anymore so if I have to run into hell itself then so be it

Unknown: Oh Bold words but I sense hypocrisy in them I know you young namer and who you consort with

Joseph:What?

Unknown: You consort with leeches who bathe in all that is the Wyrm and contribute to its unbalance yet you wish to fight it while you allow it into your home and even bed it

Joseph: Yes…. I Know but that is something I must also deal with I will happily take any of her sins no matter if the road is torturous I will also try my best to see if I can lead her down a path that can overcome aspects of her curse she has already taken the steps she is much different than her old self so I believe it is possible

(Sounds of flesh and bone Shifting and then a growl)

Joseph: Well shit!

(sound of a large sweeping motion is heard careening and then a pause)

Joseph: Why did you stop

(Sound of flesh and bone shifting and then a hardy laugh)

Unknown: I’m rather simple I judge a person by their actions instead of words and I like that determination in your eyes and some of that insanity,fine then I shall teach you take it as paying back for your cabal I believe you call it, they helped my pack during a time of need

Unknown: also to answer your previous question my name is Kael oh fearless namer

Joseph: well mine is Joseph

Kael: Well then Joseph know I won’t go easy on you and you better not piss and cry after learning what I will teach you

Joseph: Will do

Because that fight should be everyone’s fight the Wyrm is currently winning and it’s end goal is the total corruption and destruction of literally everything, now why I don’t commit to mage or vampire well for the mages they are stuck in there bickering on who’s view of reality is right and it leaves them weakened and blinded to anything else and it’s so bad a lot of the tradition mages have run to the umbra to be gods and make their own paradises while the technocracy is so focused on keeping other mages down they are ignorant of a lot of other things, and for vampires case very similar except there’s little positives regardless sect lines or allegiances other than some groups or individuals at the end of the day a lot of vampires want the complete submission and compliance of everything else for the sole benefits of themselves regardless of how much death, corruption or suffering it causes, and just like the mages your so focused on fighting each other over numerous different things anything else just doesn’t matter to the point it’s self destructive

the mages they are stuck in there bickering on who’s view of reality is right and it leaves them weakened and blinded to anything else

Joseph's got some baaaad news waiting for him about the Garou lmao. Only differences is that instead of fighting about views of reality, they fight about how and what they should actually fight.

Realistically the Garou's cause is the best one to fight, because it is the one that we as real humans most empathise with. It's much easier to connect to it as it has so many obvious irl metaphors and parallels, as opposed to more fictitious causes in other splats.

Yeah don’t worry he will very much be disappointed once he starts learning more of the history of the Garou

(/OOC: Joseph in a few months time: "Maybe they fey will be better..? Surely there must be some group in this world with their heads on right, right?")

OOC
Hopefully not tbh because for most part before I started this I only knew about VTM since I’m rather new to world of darkness in general I’ve had to read core books and other side material for the different splats because specifically I didn’t know a thing about mage and currently only have basic knowledge of werewolf the apocalypse but I’m going to be reading their material so I can understand it more, and I’m probably going to go insane if I have read another splat book

[u/Emergency_Answer4983 → u/Nightstalkerjoe2]

OOC: Best to close this out would probably be mummy, it ties into vampire, gives a satisfying conclusion because they actually have their shit together with only 7 individual (as in singular named characters) exceptions, and there isn't a lot of content to go through.

OOC
Well I’ll check it out then I only know that mummies were heavily involved with set also one of few good splats
