Tale Weaver's Vampire: The Masquerade Game Board

Clover's head whipped towards the door as it burst open... again. Her face contorted into maximum fury, and the words spilled out of her mouth, "Koln! What did I f****** tell you about breaking my door down! You have been a VERY bad boy." She pointed towards him imperiously, her eyes flashing, "And since you're being so bad, go stand in the corner! NOW!"

'Angelica, did you really just command that poor man again? You are an awful, AWFUL person.'

Clover's jaw clenched as she tried to hold back any feelings of shame. She felt awful for having done that to Koln. But she wouldn't take it back. She would never apologize.

Standing, she strode over to him and thrust his hat-with-rat out in front of his nose, "Here, take this. I just didn't want them to get wet." She mumbled the last part, as though ashamed she had to explain herself.

Mindy saunters in behind Koln. "Well, he's awake!"

Ruby growls and turns off the hairdryer letting it fall on the bed. She grabs her clothes and storms out of the room closing the door behind her again.

Lacey, dressed in only her bra and underwear mutters to herself "Don't trust me? ME! How many doors have I kicked down?"

Lacey walks over to Koln and looks at him curiously as he stares at the wall blankly. She waves her hand in front of his face. She looks over at Clover, a strange smile crossing her face. She turns her back to Koln and starts walking towards Clover. "You want to see what's wrong with me? You want to look at the madness? I can show you madness, I can show you true enlightenment!"

Lacey spends 1 bloodpoint and uses The Haunting on Clover.

Clover must make a Will Save with a -5 penalty.

Clover backed up from Lacey reflexively.

Clover

[sblock]Your vision starts to blur, the room starts to spin and you hear voices, many voices. At first the voices are too many to be coherent, they all seem to be saying something different like a group of people all yelling at the same time. But eventually the voices start to become clear and you realize that they are screaming your name! Your vision clears and you find yourself looking down at your own body, still and cold lying on the floor, a stake shoved through your chest and blood seeping from your parted lips. Your parents are crying over you, your mother sobbing "How could this happen!? How could this happen to my baby! She has become a monster, a monster!!" Your father does his best to try to console her but she keeps sobbing. She looks down at the stake and with a sudden swift action yanks it from your chest, blood spouts up from the wound covering your mother and father and the floor around you. You are sucked back into your body and the world looks red, as if you are looking at it through a sheet of red glass.

You are awake and all you can think about is the blood, and the screaming returns, the voices in your head tell you to kill, to feed. Your parents look up at you in horror as you tear off your own skin revealing some disgusting bestial creature within you. Your arms are covered in black slimy skin and your nails have become the claws of a beast. You have no control and you feel powerless as you watch yourself rip your own parents to shreds taking in every bit of flesh and blood that you can consume until there is nothing left and you are alone. You are alone but you still hear screaming, the screams seem to be bursting out of your head and you fall to the ground your mind broken. The floor beneath you opens up into an abyss of nothing but blackness and finally the screams stop. [/sblock]

Meanwhile in reality Clover falls to the floor screaming and sobbing. Koln finds that he is released from Clover's command, like the link between his mind and her has been broken.

To clarify...

Clover fell to the floor in a mix of screams and sobs, her arms coming up to cover her head protectively. Her fingers dragged through her hair and over her face as she yelled over and over again, "Mama! Papa, don't hate me! Please!"

She was barely even aware that she rolled on the floor and didn't even see that she faced the entirety of her room. The entire finality of her universe in a 12 foot by 12 foot cell. All the while, she screeched her mother's name.

Scrambling blindly, she clawed at herself as though she could make the horrible image of herself as a beast go away. As though she could claw it off. But her skin didn't yield. Sobbing, she flailed helplessly and her fingers finally caught on something she could rip and destroy: The silver chain of her fleur-de-lis. She wasn't even aware of the sound that emitted from her throat--some preternatural, animal groan--as her fingers pulled the chain away from her throat, the silver pendant flying off and across the room, its resting place unknown.

She struggled to sit up and find some normalcy. She struggled to focus on who was in the room with her. But they were all beasts. All beasts together. She screamed again, not even aware when her entreaties for mother and family switched from English to Latin, her pleas turning fluidly to desperate prayer, "Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum, benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus ventris tui Iesus. Sancta Maria mater Dei, ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen"

Clover panicked as she reached for her necklace and found it gone, and her screaming began anew.

Lacey looks down at Clover writhing on the ground and says solemnly "Yes, give in to the madness, let it show you who you really are. And now you know why we Malkavians are the way we are. Think about if you had to see that every single day, it never ends for us."

Koln hurries over to Clover, tightly embracing her and softly petting her hair as he does his best to comfort her. "Ohh mon petite four leafed one, shh shh it's ok. It's ok..." He then looks up at Lacey angrily, "Mon ami, there is a reason why those who do not see keep their eyes firmly shut, no? Even if it means gouging out their eyes so that the innocent ones may remain innocent, it is our duty as good Christians to see to their salvation, at ALL costs! As our Lord said 'Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.'"

Without waiting for a reply he continues to comfort Clover like a Father to a frightened child.

OOC: Awww...


Clover feebly attempted her struggle out of his grip. She hated being weak. She hated being babied. She didn't need anyone to take care of her! She wasn't a child! But her arms wouldn't free her, and they pushed at Koln so lightly that she might as well have been patting him. Clearly before her eyes, she still saw her dying parents perishing into pools of blood, cries of "Monster!" emanating forevermore from their blood-soaked lips. So much pain. So much agony. She shuddered, simultaneously trying to bat Koln away while snuggling closer into his protective grasp, "Make it go away, Koln. Make the pictures go away. Please." Her eyes squeezed shut as she heard the screams begin anew. 'Mama!' she thought. But the screams were her own.
