Maybe not their direct Sire, but the Vitae leads to them one way or another. Maybe they're the GandSire or the Great GrandSire, you know what I mean.

How common would you say is that? And wich Clans specifically would be mostly like this?

I assume in some places it could work like that because the Prince could delegate the Right of Progeny to the Primogen so they choose wich member/s of their Clan can perform the embrace.

How would a Kindred go about being in the Camarilla/Anarchs and helping the other faction too without getting turned into dust or being exiled from both spaces?

I feel like the only possibilities are:

- Being absolutely indispensable to the both of them, so they can not get rid of you even if they really dislike you.

- Being so unimportant that you go unnoticed.

But surely there's options I'm not seeing.

I saw a person asking about canon Kindred relationships the other day and this came to mind.

How do you think a Vampire Polyamorous relationship could play out?

Maybe they work like a coterie and every one of them is blood bonded to the other with a ritual similar to Vaulderie.

Maybe they're not all eachothers partner and there's a Kindred that's the core of the relationship that blood bonds the others.

Maybe they don't blood bond at all because they see it as dishonest and they just go with the flow.

I don't know. What do you think? I think it's a pretty interesting concept to speculate about.

I'm creating NPCs for a setting I'm preparing (post Brujah leaving the Cam) and could really use some inspiration. So, could you tell me about Brujah in the Camarilla?

It could be anything: a character you played, an npc you encountered in/created for one of your games... Everything helps.

The city should be it's own character. The city doesn't have any ambitions on its own but by existing it molds the characters to be who they are (the meticulous film producer in L.A.; the confident N.Y. economist) and at the same time the city gets shaped by the people that inhabit it.

I have been struggling thinking of ways to make my cities or settings feel "alive" or "authentic". I research the history of the place I want to use for a campaing, I stick by the city core values or how it's percieved to give a sense of cohesion (for example if I were to use Paris I would focus on it being "the City of Light" and "the City of Love" and try to frame it as this place that breeds and rewards creativity, innovation and order but also sparks strong and real emotions even in the stillest of hearts).

But how do you convey this in-game? Every time I think about it it feels like the only two results in my head are:

1- The players are not familiar with the city and I feel like I'm infodumping, wich is counterproductive to the immersion I want to create

2- The players are familiar with the city and I feel like I can only evoke the feeling of "Hey I've been there in real life! haha" and that also doesn't help

So, how do you present your cities? How do you create immersion and make your setting feel real? I'm very grateful in advance to everyone that took the time to read this and/or respond.
