Following up on discussions on another thread, there is great potential in less urban settings to run a Camarilla chronicle that is rife with intrigue, and especially with cabin fever-style horror. City settings are often too familiar and comfortable; the demands of the Masquerade mean that Kindred are mostly safe if they stick to populated areas, and being able to mingle in Elysium removes a lot of tension in terms of the terror of the unknown. Camarilla politics also tend to be very stereotypical in terms of clan interactions; a less urban setting is great to explore original and unfamiliar...

Vampires should, normally, cry regular tears, be capable of sweating regular-seeming sweat, and create sexual fluids that aren't the height of embarrassment. Why? "you cry blood" always seems be said in a tone that reminds me of a 14 year old thinking he knows what's cool. It's not cool. It's lame. It's really really lame. It might be great for a specific scene, but it's something that really suffers with overuse. (also note: Vampire magic being excessively blood themed. Juvenile.)

I was watching The Green Knight (2021) and Mandy. It occurred to me that both movies are pretty trippy and even psychedelic. I began to wonder what games lend themselves to that style of play?


What game systems lend themselves to trippy and even psychedelic play?


What settings lend themselves to trippy and even psychedelic play?


How would you include trippy and even psychedelic elements in a game?...
