      • This one is obscure, but Corpse Party is full of potential for a Wraith or Orpheus campaign. Sachiko would definitely be a Stripling (same with the three child spirits).

        • Not fictional, but I think Adam Sandler would be a Faustian Devil and the actors in his Happy Madison productions made pacts with him. They still have careers, but they have to be in bad movies for the rest of their lives.

              From what we learn of his past in Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (trailer), I'd say he's a Difference Engineer barrabi (i.e. an early Virtual Adept who's joined the Nephandi), probably from the late Nineteenth Century (based on his tech). Judging from the 2 brothers flashback, we're talking about a character who was fascinated by the idea that humans might be able to exist purely as brains (with the right support equipment), and communicate directly mind-to-mind. And as he grew older, he became convinced that he could "hack" death, and built an experimental portal to "the afterlife". He entered the prototype (apparently) as a kindly old man . . . and came back as the Tall Man.

              That just sounds like a mage obsessed with the Ahl-i-Batin's "Web of Faith" (telepathic network) . . . like the early Difference Engineers. And if his experiments with the portal were unauthorized . . . well, the Technocracy doesn't teach the rank-and-file about "Dimensional Science" (i.e. the Spirit sphere), so he'd have had no idea about the dangers of the "Other Side". . . And the Nephandi Cauls would certainly explain the changes in his personality and appearance.

                Haven't seen the new version, but classic Robocop would (probably) be an Iteration X cyborg . . .but a prototype version commissioned by the Syndicate as a "cost-effective" way to "upgrade and recycle damaged knowledge assets" (I.e. cops crippled in the line of duty). Hence the reason his bionics seem so clunky (compared to standard Iteration cyborgs) - the Syndicate is going for cheap, and (hopefully) plausible* under consensual reality


                *after all, everyone "knows" that new technological devices tend to be bulky, awkward, and with a lot of room for improvement. Why should the "first" cyborg be any different?

                • So, tell me, what of Myotismon from Digimon? He's obviously a vampire, but which clan would be belong to?

                  The most obvious answers to me are one of three clans: Tzimisce, Gangrel, or Tremere. Not sure which one of those three though.

                      That giant tentacle monster form would seem to indicate Vicissitude 9, but she has the Lasombra flaw. She also has very high levels of fortitude, protean, necromancy and thaumaturgy. And then there's the fact that she was "half-demon" before she was embraced. How would that even work??
                      No one's a fan of Adventure Time here? Or is the half demon part just inexplicable?

                        Demons, as in D:TF demons, cannot reproduce, so you'd have to go with half-spirit of some other kind. Which, naturally, would produce issues with the Embrace. The classic WoD games, they're just not as permissive as AT.

                          Hmm . . . Dilbert? I'd go one of two ways. Either he's an Orphan technomancer (that is, a science-paradigm mage who doesn't belong to a faction), possibly newly Awakened, who doesn't understand why his fellow engineers (and humans) suddenly seem so slow, untalented, and generally incompetent. After all, if he can build such amazing machines, shouldn't everyone?

                          Or he's a knocker (changeling kith with a knack for machinery) trying to hold down a job in a mundane/human corporation. Under normal circumstances, knockers generally don't play well with others, and trying to maintain a job in such a banality rich environment . .. well, it would explain a lot.

                          • Hm, time to offer my own-

                            Dangan Ronpa, either 1 or 2. Monokuma must be included,

                            (the Mastermind doesn't need to be, I can't see how you would be able to interpret them as anything but a Nephandus of some stripe).

                              That would explain SO MUCH, even Grown Ups 2.

                                Next time I'm running a WoD game I'm going to have every splat working together to destroy that wretched, utterly irredeemably corrupt abomination spawned from the deepest, blackest pit of the most nightmarish of hells.

                                And we'll get that demon too.

                                If there's time. After all priorities.


                                Homo sapiens. What an inventive, invincible species. It's only a few million years since they crawled up out of the mud and learned to walk. Puny, defenceless bipeds. They've survived flood, famine and plague. They've survived cosmic wars and holocausts. And now, here they are, out among the stars, waiting to begin a new life. Ready to outsit eternity. They're indomitable. Indomitable.
