As someone who's only played bloodline and had no idea that there was a whole franchise of lore. This was very enlightening, fantastic work. Thanks for expanding the horizon.
@GM Steelhaven lol they were a terrible publisher and forced them to rush it. It was barely a fleshed out game when they had to push it out the door. All the credit goes to Troika Games, gone but never forgotten.
@@lazarofstygia2241 doesn’t that depend on who their progenitor is? A fresh vampire embraced by a Methuselah or Ante-Diluvian could do quite a bit of damage.
@@Michael-bn1oi OR... The "Fledgeling Sire" wasn't the sire, just the set-up. Best thing about VTM:B in my opinion, is how the Camarilla always think the Anarchs are just stupid and brutish, and that whole scenario was put together by Smiling Jack, one of the most lawless, and defiant of The Anarchs.
I have no experience with VTM but love lore of any kind. These videos are great, and saturated enough that an outsider can get a good idea of what's going on. Very cool.
*Vannevar Thomas is mentioned* Me, who was introduced to VtM by LA by Night: “I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.”
That is truly hilarious, and profoundly true for the children. In fact it has begun nationally to position the children, or to assure they are equipped for the future which involves mind to mind, manifestation, etc etc. Yet still suffers from true understanding of sin and blood born responsibility.
In 2004 there also were rumors about a mysterious taxi driver that appeared shortly before the final death of prince LaCroix just to seemingly vanish out of thin air after that faithful night. Nobody knows where he came from, where he went to or even who this man actually was. Some say he was just a human, some claim they saw him talking to Smiling Jack and that he was a kindred of unknown clan belonging to the anarch movement. Then there are the few that say that said stranger felt to them like he's ancient, that he might be the dark father though that is completely impossible. Or is it?
@GM Steelhaven If it was a Antedeluvian and not Cain like your saying then my guess would be Haqim.. He according to his lore is more of a watcher person as great events unfold around him.. And doesnt seem to be that hostile in most of the stories his mentioned.. Pretty cool dude.. Unless you belief this Ur Shulgi fella
Just binged most of your videos while driving to work this week. I'm new to the masquerade. I only bought the game last year. The lore is fascinating. Great job on the videos 👌
Definitely informative, love these videos, I'm about to be playing VtM here soon with my group and these videos have not only given me the proper amount of history of lore for this system, but have made it even more exciting to look forward to
@Jimmy Jazz dunno if it can get more détail than that without tainting and screwing up the already weakened minds out there. Then again perhaps it's a switch..for something much bigger.
Love how the lore weaves in and out of actual history. Mentioning that Georgetown predates (most of) the rest of DC and despite being in the rich part of town now was then a broke little dump.
My dude, you might be the only one doing the WOD lore right on YT. I hate a 10 min lore video unless its a specifically small piece of whatever universe it is. Keep it up bro, im sure you will get more traction once Bloodlines 2 comes out... Altho, im a bit worried their gonna fuck this game up completely. (I hope it will have mod support) Anybody that disagrees, shiiiyt, check out there game track record on wiki. Also, what have we really seen. A journalist that's never used a controller with crazy physics lol. How!?!? Hope i'm wrong tho. The WOD is so deep, can you imagine CD Projekt doing a VTM game with other elements of the WOD universe sprinkled in. I cold even see a Wraith: The Oblivion game from... FromSoftware.
I remember all that! I just finished stabbing LaCroix in the chest with his own letter opener this morning!... still don't know how Jack got the explosives into the sarcophagus though.
Naughty naughty, Where have you been hiding all this time? How Rich in detail, and deep you go Is very courageous. cool stuff. Sickeningly close To reality.
I only really played the game VTMB and read the v5 books, book of nod so this was enlightening thank you, also what is the background music it’s driving me nuts.
You forgot to mention the publication of a certain book in 1897, as well as the final death of a certain Tzimice Methuselah to a promethean vampire on New Year’s Day in 2000.
@@lazarofstygia2241 you are absolutely right, the new editions lack passion, too much posering and no essence. WoD is endangered to become yet another D&D.
Before the recent 'changes' the Brujah were fairly well represented among the Camarilla, Anarchs, and Sabbat. The Brujah are not rebels so much as they are idealists and idealogues, with all of the positive and negative aspects.
It is md new age from VTMB redemption it’s a short track however, took me a while to find it. Most his music near as I can tell is from VTMB redemption
@@lazarofstygia2241 'Sold' lol. its just the update wether we like or not. its okay though to say if you have no interest obviously. personally sad, but there are indeed many youtuber about it now. wonder what your next 'series' is? Bloodlines or Hunter:The Reckoning maybe?
@@lazarofstygia2241 just noticed. very cool as i dont know much about them except they are now St. Leopold, cause the vatican sanctioned their cause now.
@dormiebasne3578it's not "bruha", this is a common mistake due to the Spanish word being written similarly. It's Brujah. The clan predates the Spanish language.

Glad you enjoyed it!
i commend your reading ability, not too fast, not too slow and not boring and monotone.
well done good sir
Thanks.
This why I love this game there is so much lore and it intwins with real history that it seems real I really think they should make a movie with it
Idris Elba as Caine?
I love how Bloodlines fit so perfectly into the canon lore. Well done
@GM Steelhaven lol they were a terrible publisher and forced them to rush it. It was barely a fleshed out game when they had to push it out the door. All the credit goes to Troika Games, gone but never forgotten.
I almost spit my drink out when you said "The Prince of Gary, Indiana".
No mention that the attacks on Venture Tower and the Temple of Golden Virtue were carried out by a lone, barely several nights old vampire?
Rumors and innuendo and fake news. No fledgling could cause that much carnage in that short a time.
@@lazarofstygia2241 doesn’t that depend on who their progenitor is? A fresh vampire embraced by a Methuselah or Ante-Diluvian could do quite a bit of damage.
@bendover9813 yeah, but that wasn't the case. The sire was a nobody that gets executed.

@@Michael-bn1oi Maybe the fledgeling was blessed by Caine.

Me, who was introduced to VtM by LA by Night: “I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.”
Vannevar was primarily a novels and anthology character whose greatest strength was building alliances.
Lazar of Stygia Oh, I didn’t know that!
That is truly hilarious, and profoundly true for the children. In fact it has begun nationally to position the children, or to assure they are equipped for the future which involves mind to mind, manifestation, etc etc. Yet still suffers from true understanding of sin and blood born responsibility.
I loved LA by Night... Bloods vs Crypts was a Brilliant idea
In 2004 there also were rumors about a mysterious taxi driver that appeared shortly before the final death of prince LaCroix just to seemingly vanish out of thin air after that faithful night.

But surely, that can’t be.. Caine vanished thousands of years ago, never to be seen again

IV listened to a few of these lore videos now and you wouldn't think that it was all for a table top rpg
Well, you could watch Kindred the Embrace and pretend more episodes exist.
The boys and girls of WW spent over a decade churning out products, some better than others, but it is a well-defined, lived-in universe.
@Jimmy Jazz Yeah the scripts of Kindred bounced between cringe-inducing and hilarious.
@Jimmy Jazz dunno if it can get more détail than that without tainting and screwing up the already weakened minds out there. Then again perhaps it's a switch..for something much bigger.
It's quite staggering! But in a good way
Love the lore vids! Definitely an underrated channel.
I've been told building a channel takes time. It'll get there.
i agree!
thank you for making this, was very fun to hear while driving.
You're welcome! Glad to finally make it on drive-time radio!
These videos are great, and you deserve a lot more recognition for the amount of work you put in to them. Thank you for doing this.
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed listening to them.
I love videos like this. I use them to fall asleep : )
Something about this channel.. I love this guy. Keep on, Lazar, keep on.
I'm addicted to these videos! Awesome to the nth power!
Love the lore!!!!
Brings back so many awesome memories ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The Blood is the Life 👍👍👍👍👍👍💕💕💕
thanks for the video. I am in the hobby since 20 years, but so many newe details, wow! This was hard woek, i think.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love how the lore weaves in and out of actual history. Mentioning that Georgetown predates (most of) the rest of DC and despite being in the rich part of town now was then a broke little dump.
Awesome job again. Really enjoy these videos.
Thanks for listening! More content is on the way!

Interesting adventure!
Thanks. I loved your narration. Be safe. Mabuhay!
Salamat for listening!
SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!
Khorne is simply another name men use for the Beast-of-War.
Harbingers infernalists, confirmed!
You forgot to mention the publication of a certain book in 1897, as well as the final death of a certain Tzimice Methuselah to a promethean vampire on New Year’s Day in 2000.
Original VtM was so cool, I can't say the same about V5 ... I guess modernity is not for me ...
V5 lacks what made VtM 1st/2nd special, which is a genuine countercultural edge.
@@lazarofstygia2241 you are absolutely right, the new editions lack passion, too much posering and no essence. WoD is endangered to become yet another D&D.
One thing I never got about the lore is how many brujah ally with the camarilla aren’t they supposed to be rebels n all that?
Before the recent 'changes' the Brujah were fairly well represented among the Camarilla, Anarchs, and Sabbat. The Brujah are not rebels so much as they are idealists and idealogues, with all of the positive and negative aspects.
Today I learned there's actually a kindred named Cock Robin... who on top of it all is a Nosferatu. Hilarious.
Hi Lazar. First let me say good job! Very good vídeo.
Any possibility to make a inconnu vídeo?
Very real possibility. Just depends on which version of the Inconnu.
someone tell me what songs he uses in these vids, I hate when ppl make shit like this then don't source their music and such
It is md new age from VTMB redemption it’s a short track however, took me a while to find it. Most his music near as I can tell is from VTMB redemption
How long to they have left, about 3 years. Then the final nights occure
Soo, will you attempt a part with V5 follow-up history as well? Comparable, not much happened, but than big things did.
Probably not. I'm not sold on what I've seen of it.
@@lazarofstygia2241 'Sold' lol. its just the update wether we like or not. its okay though to say if you have no interest obviously.

The Imbued Hunters will figure into this new series of videos.
@@lazarofstygia2241 just noticed. very cool as i dont know much about them except they are now St. Leopold, cause the vatican sanctioned their cause now.
What book is the artwork from that starts at 33 minutes and goes to about 37 minutes?
What's the name of the background music?
Did you ever find out the background music?
I found it if your still looking it’s MD New Age from VTMB redemption
@@TheJcjonesacp Much appreciated!
@@doctorfaustxvi no problem, need to find any others? The last one was dark age conversation 1
Vampires are real. They say the merovingian dynasty comes from Caine
You haven't yet done the history of Hunter the reckoning

@@lazarofstygia2241 My mistake
If Bloodlines isn't canon, then canon is dumb.
Listening to his pronunciation of Brujah is like hearing nails scratching a chalkboard. Other than that, good video.
45:25 with their what, now
Bloodlines is cannon
Lol how is bloodlines not cannon?
Stories
It's pronounced "Broo-ha"!!!
@dormiebasne3578it's not "bruha", this is a common mistake due to the Spanish word being written similarly. It's Brujah. The clan predates the Spanish language.
You cant pronounce BREW HA but can pronounce aztec gods?? I feel like this has to be purposeful and racially motivated
