I think it's sufficient to say that many scientists have seen things that they were unable to explain. Real scientists however won't accept a hypothesis with absolutely no evidence as an explanation for said "thing". They leave the answer b...  [Read More]

Wasn't sure if this would be more properly created in Ahto, but I figure since this theory is likely to be controversial and the historical significance of such a finding is huge, it would qualify as a "serious topic". http://khufu.3ds.com...  [Read More]

No, no special quests, but similar to Tremere, you get a unique haven (these are the only two Clans that get this). Also, you get a special form of transportation. And feeding on rats is fun. :) Yes, they are ugly, but the sneaking isn't that bad. C...  [Read More]

Yeah, and as tk pointed out, the dancing is a _lot_ better than in Kotor. :D You get a humanity point if you dance long enough, too (about 5 minutes or so), 2 points if you're a Toreador. Whoops, missed that one :( Wait till you try it as a Nosferat...  [Read More]
