| HUNTING SYSTEM |
+===================================================================+
Vampires must hunt mortals to reduce their Hunger. The Beckoning MU provides
two ways to hunt: quick automated hunts and staff-run hunt scenes.
QUICK HUNT (+hunt):
Use +hunt for a quick, automated hunting scene. This performs a dice roll
based on your Predator Type and reduces your Hunger on success.
Syntax:
+hunt - Hunt in a random location
+hunt <location> - Hunt in a specific location
+huntinfo - View available hunting locations
Example:
+hunt nightclub Hunt at a nightclub (Siren/Osiris bonus)
+hunt hospital Hunt at a hospital (Bagger/Cleaver bonus)
PREDATOR TYPE BONUSES:
Your Predator Type determines your hunting dice pool and bonus dice:
Alleycat (Strength + Brawl +1) - Aggressive street feeding
Bagger (Intelligence + Streetwise) - Stealing blood bags
Blood Leech (Strength + Brawl) - Feeding on other vampires
Cleaver (Manipulation + Subterfuge +1) - Feeding from institutions
Consensualist (Charisma + Persuasion +1) - Willing vessels
Farmer (Composure + Animal Ken +1) - Feeding from animals
Osiris (Charisma + Performance +2) - Fame-based feeding
Sandman (Dexterity + Stealth +1) - Breaking and entering
Scene Queen (Manipulation + Persuasion) - Social scene feeding
Siren (Charisma + Subterfuge +2) - Seduction-based feeding
HUNT LOCATIONS:
Different locations provide bonuses or penalties based on your Predator Type:
- Nightclubs - Good for Siren, Osiris, Scene Queen
- Hospitals - Good for Bagger, Cleaver
- Back alleys - Good for Alleycat, Sandman
- Parks - Good for Farmer (animals)
- Residential - Good for Sandman, Consensualist
HUNT RESULTS:
Success: Reduce Hunger by 1-2 (depending on margin of success)
Partial Success: Reduce Hunger by 1, possible complications
Failure: No Hunger reduction, possible Masquerade breach or witnesses
Messy Critical: Hunger reduced but dramatic/violent feeding
Bestial Failure: Hunt fails and triggers clan Compulsion
STAFF-RUN HUNT SCENES:
For more detailed roleplayed hunting, request a staff-run hunt scene through
the Jobs system. Staff will run a full hunting scene with NPCs, complications,
and roleplayed feeding.
Syntax:
job/create hunt=Request for staff-run hunt scene in [location]
Staff-run hunts provide:
- Full roleplay with mortal NPCs
- Resonance selection (Choleric, Melancholic, Phlegmatic, Sanguine)
- Potential for Dyscrasia (powerful temporary blood)
- Complications and Masquerade threats
- Better Hunger reduction (up to 3 Hunger)
