I would watch this.
I had an idea for a vampire story the other night. So you know how vampires are mysterious, partially because they’re hundreds of years old, from bygone eras? Make a vampire story where the vampire is hundreds of years old, but it’s hundreds of years in the future, and he was turned during the 1990’s. He wears like Nirvana shirts, and ripped up jeans, and everyone thinks it is so mysterious and strange.
“He wears the symbols of ancient minstrels to invoke their occult legacy and power”
Now this is brilliant.
*archetypical “dudebro” *
*doesn’t skip leg day *
What?
I like this but I wish he was like one of the good bros. Like he accepts the gay and trans bros as long as they are still bros. I’ve known a few super cool bros like this before, and they are awesome.
Fuck I think I just realized my 60+ year old uncle is a party bro. He is 100% extroverted, loves to party, and throws big parties whenever he can and just always brings party vibes with him wherever he goes. I’ve never seen anyone not instantly be his friend.
I love alternative vamps.
I once played a post-Atlantean vampire who lived in the PNW, taught ancient history (night classes,) and liked to draw. She also didn’t believe in killing any more. She had a lot of back story and a bad accent in every language. She also had a cracked sense of humor and was only mostly sane.
They have some of this in some of the club scenes in the what we do in the shadows tv show (i don’t remember if it was in the movie too)
They’d ferment diabetic blood to make beer.
bro
Or find somebody whose body naturally self-ferments and deposits alcohol into the bloodstream. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto-brewery_syndrome
You really gotta go for diabetic hipsters if you want the hoppy flavor though
New TTRPG character idea.
They could absolutely be Ventrue or even Brujah
Tragically if he was a VTM vampire he would never be able to increase his gainz.
Can’t you? It’s been like 20 years since I played but I thought you could improve your Strength and that one Discipline
Ventrue for the upper class dudebro, aptly names Chadsworth. Goes by Chad.
Brujah for the lower class dudebro. Their name is Chad however their friends call them Chaddy.
Whole time reading this all I could think was “you just made a Brujah”, glad others were on same page
Imagine his anger going to the gym and he can’t see himself in the mirrors.
What’s that from?
This is a bit like Nandor.
Rivals with the sorority of witches next door.
“Is beer cool? And can we still smoke weed?”
You can, but it won’t do anything for you. Nothing will compare to the rush that blood gives you.
what’s so important about him being straight?
Because it makes the longstanding sexual themes of vampires way funnier when he has to say “no homo” every time he dines
“Look bro. My sire told me the best way to get blood is from men. You get extra gains from biting the man’s dick. It’s like no homo bro. It’s all about the gains and the blood.”
Isnt this basically just a late 2000s take on what The Lost Boys was in the mid 80s?
Lost Boys is such a badass movie!
And a great soundtrack.
