Tell me I’m not the only one who lays out their outfits for a trip (especially when it involves cosplay) well ahead of schedule to make sure I have everything for each outfit? And these are just the costumes. I still need to pack the everyday clothes… I think I’m going to need a bigger suitcase.

Saturday | 6PM ET For some Kindred human emotion is a flicker, a fleeting moment in time when “I too felt like that once.” For others emotions are inverted, extreme, consuming. So what is The Price of Love when it can become pain or even Final Death? #vtm
It’s time for another VtM Word of the Week! It is sad that too much knowledge is bad for the brain, but I’ve always found that those who pursue intellectual endeavours, though prone to bouts of melancholy, taste that best.
Wanna play Vampires? This ongoing chronicle (1 session/month) is looking for 2 more players! Set in Australia, you’re on the hunt for what is making the Sabbat get itchy feet, and why the continent destabilising in general. We’d love to have you join! startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

Time for another VtM word of the week! Kindred can be emotional creatures. The Beast likes it when we indulge in our more extreme of feelings, but sometimes we seek out blood that pushes that even a little further. That’s where blood with a Choleric resonance comes into the picture.
It’s X-Files Day! Here’s a treasure I recently unpacked. The X-Files Collectible Card Game was developed by NXT Games and published by the US Playing Card Company. Released in 1996, it was cancelled only two years later in 1998.
The Show’s About to Start! 28 days until @paxaus.bsky.social and my 3 day pass has arrived! I’ll see you there!
Now that the @paxaus.bsky.social panel schedule is live, head to my blog to find out where you can find me this year! Things are going to be a little different... nephthysnile.com/2026/09/09/s...
See you at Pax Aus 2026!
I’ll be attending Pax Aus again this year, but things are going to look a little different this time round. If you’ve kept up with my shenanigans at convention, you will know that I nor…

Time for another VtM Word of the Week! There is a certain kind of kindred who looks to … what is it the thinbloods say these days? Oh, that’s right - aura farm. Blood does carry resonances and that can be useful knowledge to have.
It’s been a crazy few days! So here we are with Vampire the Masquerade Nightrunners, Episode 7 for all those who missed the live. We hope you had a great weekend! And remember if you like our content please like and subscribe. It really does go a long way for us. youtu.be/CGXUvnQneN0?...

So. Many. Books. And so many more to go. Currently sitting at 558 on the shelf. There are plans to optimise the shelf space but today is more about getting them out of boxes and out of my living room.
One from the collection that is vampire-themed, but not VtM related… This … “letter-opener” (as it was sold to me) is from Universal City Studios, and is one of a complete set of six Universal Monsters letter openers from 1998.
Hey #vamily! The Great Australian Bite is looking for two more players. Head to my @startplaying.bsky.social for full details! startplaying.games/adventure/cm...
Mothman and Vulpix are supervising my hand sewing tonight.
It’s September! And it’s set to be a busy month ahead! I will be spending Wednesday’s playing Crisol: Theatre of Idols over on the @ichorandinkstudios.bsky.social channel for Spooktember, as well as bringing you more indie horror titles on Horrible Mondays!
While my character, Babel the Malkavian Netrunner, interacts with and uses AI to essentially hack the planet, I as the player abhor Gen AI with every fibre of my being.
Please be vocal about not using AI. We have to normalize it. No "I'm not going to say that because it should be assumed. I'm not going to give them this". We don't have time for that shit ideological shit right now. NOW is the time to capitalize on waning favorability. Ppl want human made
I helped with the interview by doing a bit of filming at Bartronica. Check it out in this first post by @gameoveranz.bsky.social and give them a follow!!!
Time for another VtM Word of the Week! Once the domain of scientists or those trying to turn lead into gold, alchemy has found a new home amongst those some would call a portent of the end times - the Duskborn or Thin-bloods, if you want to be especially derogatory.
Saturday night at @paxaus.bsky.social is going to have some bite with PaxAus by Night, a Vampire the Masquerade story set at Pax itself. Saturday 8:30pm in the Owlbear Theatre. . #vamily #ttrpg #vampirethemasquerade #vtm
It’s International Read Comics in Public Day today, so it’s the perfect day for a little quiet time, with the Free Comic Book Day version of Winter’s Teeth. You can now pre-order a compact version of the entire series (check out the quoted post for more details).
In the Twin Cities, strange evil stalks the frozen nights... Pre-orders are now live for the complete compact edition of Vampire: The Masquerade - Winter's Teeth! Including the mini-series World of Darkness: Crimson Thaw. https://bit.ly/4wvKJsX
Time for another VtM Word of the Week (almost forgot!). Gangrel. Tzimisce. Ministry. All who wield Protean are, quite literally, changed by it.
Want to play some Vampire the Masquerade? I am currently recruiting would be Archons (or potential Justicars) to head to Australia to investigate a potential insurgence across the continent. Want to know more? startplaying.games/adventure/cm...

There you have it.
With all the stuff with our precious girl Ahsoka I keep blanking on the fact that you can still vote for us in the Crit Awards. Best legacy YouTube channel for Vancouver by Night Thanks! #vtm #ttrpg #rpg
There is still time to vote for the 2026 CritAwards if you haven’t yet! Voting closes at midnight this Sunday, August 23rd. #critawards #critawards2026
And the final product. Took a fair bit longer than I first anticipated due to small teensy little bits not cutting nicely (but I have now learned the tolerances for these), but I’m pretty happy with my first project using this new machine.
One newly emblazoned laptop… Next step, the multi-sect ankh over the top of this and then the clans… Yes, I am making sure my new cricut is getting a work out. Yes, I am procrastinating other work for this.
