[QUOTE="reapersaurus, post: 677345, member: 1194"] jeez, guys - relax. don't yell. I'm just trying to understand what Nikolai's knowledge of Ash's character is. In case anyone doesn't understand me, let me be clear: I am NOT an expert at Vampire. I do NOT know all the inter- and intra-dealings of the clan(s), and more importantly, how they will be approached in this story. I am asking for advice from you, and others, in how to approach your character, since I [i]don't understand how your specific Merits, Flaws, and un-disclosed background[/i] will affect my character. These OOC questions are a substitute for In- Character actions: specifically, from the way that I read it, Nikolai would be viewing Gabriel as a traitor who should be immediately killed. That was my immediate reaction to seeing your very-high Betrayer Flaw. In my understanding of the game, there is [b]no such thing[/b] as a Betrayer Tremere living amongst "loyal" Tremere. Therefore, as the only Tremere in attendence at the party, I am trying to decide what his reaction to the Mark would be. As far as I'm aware, it would be his responsibility to act, as any good Tremere would, against the Betrayer trying to pass himself off as a normal, clan-loyal Tremere. So you've put me in a bind here, Ash, and the only personal point I'll say is, I don't appreciate you using all this background knowledge of the history of the clans and their social ramifications. I wish you'd kept it simple. But now I have to figure out what a somewhat-new Tremere, fairly new-to-town would do to a new Betrayer in town. I don't understand how Aislinn (who Nikolai has studied with her Chantry to learn the Ritual) wouldn't inform her Tremere of this spectacular and unprecendented of vampire in town. So here's my quandry: Do I have Nikolai act as a typical Tremere would and act against Gabriel upon learning he's Sabbat slime in the midst of the city's best and brightest? Or just let it go, so as not to cause waves? [/QUOTE]
