A Changeling, White Court Virgin... Thing?

[jybil178]

Basically, I have a player who was wanting to know if this is potentially possible.  I'll be running the game to start at Chest-Deep, so she has 8 refresh to play around with...  The refresh is enough.

Now the only real question is, could this actually happen?

[Sanctaphrax]

Sure, why not?

[jadecourtflunky]

Umm... ok... wow. I suppose this is possible, but it makes me wonder: what will the character be like, coming from two races as manipulative as them... and who was tricking who in that union. This might be a better idea in a submerged game though.

That sounds awesome from a gm perspective.  You can compel both societies on the character, and it could a really weird character.  Besides what wc couldn't use summer magic?

[bibliophile20]

Interesting concept.  What's the matchup, I wonder?  A nixie/Raith or ogre/Malvora mix sounds like a one-night stand gone horribly right...

[arete]

It should be a really weird mix like a troll/Raith

If I didn't know it was a joke, and a player asked... I would slap them >.< Hahahaha

I know what you mean, those aspects he picked don't look very good to me.  Very hard to see how they can be compelled (or even invoked in some cases).  He'd definitely have to get something more evocative.

A few of the aspects are a little confusing as to what and how they would be applicable in game.

But I feel the rest are pretty evocative. I mean "My Middle Name is Badass" is about as evocative as they come.

"Badass" by itself is a fairly generic term.  It's like "My Middle Name is Awesome."  Ok, you're great...but what does that MEAN?  Hard to see how "My Middle Name is Badass" can be compelled, for instance.

IMHO, "You can all go to hell" is ok given the context, as is perhaps the last one about being sensitive (though I wonder if the player would intend that to mean he can be compelled to kill someone by accident).

Do Aspects need to mean something specific? Or could they be applicable in many situations in different ways?

It could be a generally positive Aspect that can be easily invoked with very few situation where the GM will compel it. Or maybe the GM can compel it to force the character to be badassed (however the group interprets that word).

Hmmm ... as a GM, I'm always a bit hesitant to mix and match two different templates, but I not only have no problem with this, I personally think it's a wicked idea.

Mind you, in the case of both a White Court Virgin and a Changeling, a decision needs to be made somewhere down the line which direction you're going, although in this case, we now three possible outcomes instead of two! Human (playable), White Court Vampire (playable), Full Fae (not quite so playable).

Let us know how it goes

[Moriden]

White Court Vampire (playable), Full Fae (not quite so playable).

Are we in any way certain that a full blood fae "wcv" isn't possible? there are plenty of vampiric fae out there.

Nope. Could very well be possible. Still wouldn't be playable, though.
