Alright #vamily let’s address an in game lore problem. Not as serious as usual, but still worth considering for in character #worldbuilding. Asymmetry of information, which is how I built the skeletons of my #worldofdarkness and usually #Vampirethemasquerade games ;)
We’re talking about a bunch of secret people who have been avoiding the dangers of travel whenever possible, and who live mostly through oral tradition (as anything else is possibly a Masquerade breach right). As such whenever one sires a childe, they are the sole educator.
And perhaps you might know how flawed home schooling can be. As such whenever a sire teaches a childe, information is lost, deformed, veiled by the sire’s experience and beliefs. And the childe isn’t always in the best position to be a good learner.
A reminder that admitting ignorance in such a cutthroat society is basically social suicide, and people in power have all the reasons to keep it that way. That’s the whole structure that put them in place and changing it would mean giving these peasants power. No way!
Ergo, there’s no kindred academia. This is why the (Ars Magica originated) #Tremere with their chantries and apprentices switching around became so powerful so quickly. They had a schooling system in place.
So there’s no structural vampire school. There should be. And if there’s a vampire school, that means we can do high school drama romance games.
Ergo: @vampiresnvino @wwpublishing where’s my high school vampire dating sim?
Your friendly local Tremere Regenr Lyle Kersten is totally up for grabs. Just saying
