For a more obvious answer, Brock Lesnar.

Brock Lesnar is a gigantic meat mountain who is extremely offputting to be around, spends most of his time away from everyone else, and has someone to talk for him because whenever he tries to talk he makes everyone unhappy, with him.

Also he seems unable to be permanently injured.

Spent the past couple weeks going through hundreds of pages of this thread; Loomer is the best and Magechat is the absolute worst.

So in this WWEoD, John Cena is just a normal dude with high Attributes and Abilities, right? Boring but effective.

Never bothered reading any of the old Giovanni Chronicles but a friend was moving and let me have some old V:TM stuff and the Giovanni Chronicles IV that I picked up is actually not a bad campaign setting. Worth a look if any of you ever feel like playing some greazy Giovanni.

You can have the last word, but I'll have the last laugh!
Presence + Potence makes Brujah the best pro-wrestling vampires. Toreaders may see "art" in the cinema of the ring, but they'd just stand in awe of the squared circle and be unable to do anything.

A Gangrel's animal-themed frenzy flaws can double as a "wild man" themed costume.

Nosferatu are similar to Brujah, but Nightmare instead of Presence makes them natural heels.

Ventrue would be snooty heels who brag about their wealth to the crowd so the Brujah Face can give them a proper beatdown.

The biggest problem with it its ties to I-III; it has a lot of edgelord poo poo in it to be sure, but it’s about playing Giovanni during Prohibition so uhhh don’t know what else you expected; its biggest sin is the PCs going from ghouls with loads of agency and focus, to a coterie of vamps who follow important NPCs around while they do plot.

the top heel of the last 2 0 years is literally a man named Hunter Hearst-Helmsley, formerly in a stable called the Bluebloods, from upstate Connecticut

Hey y'all, I've been invited to a Vampire game, operating under the information it was Vamp Requiem, I made a Nos Carthian based on a disaffected leftist concept, still trying to get change in undeath.

I have since been corrected it's Masquerade and wondering what's the best way to keep that concept going.

As another poster said, you can change "Carthian" to "Anarch" and be just fine, though you might get slapped around a little by your clan.

Otherwise a Brujah works. Some of the more intelligently written Brujah got their start as union goons, rebel slaves, and Socialist agitators. A friend of mine played a bare-knuckle boxer turned union heavy from the 19-teens named Oliver Peach who was cool as hell.

Pretty obviously mirrors "Goodfellas" in structure if not in form. I liked it, especially the emphasis on the weird social side-effects of being a ghoul. And the gradual ramping up of the Necromancy weirdness was pretty well handled. I agree that ditching the connections to the previous modules would be the way to go.

Eh? You mean they lose Nightmare (supernatural fear) from Requiem, and have Animalism in Masquerade. Nosferatu don't have Presence in Requiem.
