History Characters / VampireTheMasqueradeBloodlinesModCharacters

* VillainRespect: Asking him about [=LaCroix=], and he'll say that he admires [=LaCroix=]'s ambition if nothing else. Similarly, if asked about Nines, he tells the Fledgeling that there's an open seat in the Sabbat for him once he stops being concerned about his Humanity.

* OptionalSexualEncounter: The mod adds a scene where they gives a player who's gotten on her good side across her questline a sexy private dance, then coyly asks them to "take her" before a fade to black and some sound effects, the way Jeanette's own scene was handled in the vanilla game.

* IAmAHumanitarian: As with all Kuei-Jin, Kalliyan started off as a Chin-mei, a barely sapient and recently returned Kuei-Jin who can only get chi from eating human flesh.

* MsExposition: She essentially reveals a good portion of details that make up the ''TabletopGame/KindredOfTheEast'' gameline for Vampire The Masquerade.

* JustForPun: He has the Sheriff "See you out" [[spoiler:after meeting him after TheReveal that the Fledgeling was made into a sleeper agent for [=LaCroix=] if you joined the Sabbat at King's Way. The Sheriff makes you leave...from at least 30+ stories up and onto the pavement below.]]

!!Independents
[[folder:Bishop Vick]]
The Plaguebearer. As his title of Bishop implied Sabbat connections, the player's new view into Sabbat politics lets them discover his origins.

* AdaptationSpeciesChange: The files for the base game show that Vick is a Toreador. In this mod, he's a childe of Hazel Tomes, a Malkavian.

[[folder:Jesse]]
A character added in when the Sabbat were added in, Jesse is a Gangrel who is currently underneath [=LaCroix's=] thumb due to a NoodleIncident involving the Sabbat. He can be found loitering about in East LA, and he serves as your advisor if you make it to East LA.

* DeathBySex: [[spoiler:If Jeanette is the sole survivor in the Clan Quest Mod when you do the Malkavian Clan Quest, he tries to initiate cunnilingus on her...only to somehow burst into flames and die.]]

* AmbiguousDisorder: As a Malkavian, her madness becomes a bit...uncertain. She rationalizes her vampirism (staying up at night, drinking blood and partaking in Sabbat rituals) as "being a night owl who sometimes drinks wine and goes to parties". She later devolves into bouts of anger and depression.

* FauxAffablyEvil: UpToEleven. [[spoiler:His meeting after you get the Sarcophagus for Andrei is him rubbing the fact that he's dominated you from the start in your face, forcing you to kneel, shut up and tell him where the sarcophagus is, and finally having the Sheriff push you out a 30+ story high window to your doom. [[NotQuiteDead Or so it would seem...]]]]

* LightningBruiser: During combat, he not only possesses Celerity, but also appears to hit much harder than Ariana does and tends towards more damaging melee weapons than her as well. This goes UpToEleven in later quests where starts packing a Dragon's Breath sawed-off, the strongest shotgun in the game and one of the three firearms that does the most damage to vampires.

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: He offers a way to get rid of the Assamite ''antitribu'', as he is collaborating with the Camarilla and thus should be killed. [[spoiler:He also tries betraying you, because he wants the Antediluvian to himself.]]
* ManipulativeBastard: Comes with being a Lasombra. He comes to the Ventrue Fledgeling and offers a way to kill Adithya and fulfill [=LaCroix's=] request at the same time. [[spoiler:He also does this to get close to you so he can kill you, and asks if you really thought the Sabbat would accept you.]]

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: He give a few standard ones to your ignorance about Kindred society, but he'll especially lay into you if you decide to take the Sarcophagus for yourself, or side with Ming Xiao.

Given how popular Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines is and the numerous mods for it that exist, this page covers characters who are introduced as part of mods, or who have additional characterization as of mods. As a rule, any additional characterization on characters in game should not be taken as canon.

* BadPowersGoodPeople: Though noted for the PC character already, ''The Final Nights'' introduces plenty of creepier powers. These include [[MakeThemRot Thanatosis, which specializes in rotting and decaying flesh]], [[BloodyMurder Quietus which specializes in assassination and stealing blood]], and finally [[DealWithTheDevil Daimonion, the discipline that specializes in getting demonic powers.]]

* StealthPun: The character that Mr. Tomes is based off of is from a book called Literature/WiseBlood, whose title is also an unusual way of describing the [[BunnyEarsLawyer Malkavian "condition"]].

* HiddenDepths: For all his [[TheHedonist hedonistic tendencies]], he bemoans the NotSoDifferent nature the Sabbat, Camarilla and Anarchs share with each other and believes it's better to make your own way through unlife by being independent.

* NotSoDifferent: From [=LaCroix=]. She's trying to claim territory for her faction in a location hostile to her kind without proper backup from her superiors, and most of the underlings she's been given don't have any respect for her. Kalliyan gleefully notes that Xiao and [=LaCroix=] are both "one awkward silence away from being deposed".

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Nobody really cares about him or sees anything positive about him save for his services. Even the fanbase who know of him in the mod hate him for his [[HeManWomanHater backwards treatment of women.]]

* GeniusBruiser: He's arguably the best planner and manipulator in East L.A. Sabbat territory, and like any other Malkavians worth a damn to the Sabbat, he possesses absolutely uncanny insight. Gameplay-wise, he's also one of the most formidable pack members the mod can offer you, and story-wise, he prides himself on having brought the FinalDeath to plenty of Kuei-jin in his day. Yes, the same Kuei-jin who've been killing the Downtown L.A. Anarchs in droves.

** He expresses that having an affinity for YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness is a good notion to have in the Ventrue Clan Quest, if you took Lorenzo's suggestion to kill Adithia.

* ManipulativeBastard: Comes with being a Lasombra. He comes to the Ventrue Fledgeling and offers a way to kill Adithia and fulfill [=LaCroix's=] request at the same time. [[spoiler:He also does this to get close to you so he can kill you, and asks if you really thought the Sabbat would accept you.]]

* {{Jerkass}}: Supremely so. He's every negative stereotype about the Assassites rolled into one hateful package, and revels in it. Contrast every other Kindred in the city, who try to be at least FauxAffablyEvil with the player, this guy openly talks about how he's itching to do away with them first chance he gets.

* HypnoticEyes: The Serpentis 1 power, Eyes of the Asp, basically works just like Dominate. In fact, Serpentis can be used like Dominate in dialogue in the Final Nights, given that Dominate is not a usable discipline in game.

* LightningBruiser: The Celerity Discipline, used by the Assamite Visiers, Osebo and Ishtarri.
* MakeThemRot: The Thanatosis Discipline of the Samedi Clan deals with rates of decomposition in others. They use it in game to remove dots of Attributes or Soak from their targets and transfer it to themselves, but the highest power outright rots away the target completely!

* TattooAsCharacterType: The Setite [=PCs=] will sport some rocking tattoos, namely egyptian themed with hieroglyphs and snake imagery. The Salubri [=PCs=] will have asian and peace inspired tattoos.

!! The Player Character

!! The Camarilla

** The fact that he sends you into Sabbat territory, despite the Fledgeling's protests that they will have it out for him given the Warehouse job. [[BadBoss Despite the fact that he's basically responsible for the fact that they know the Fledgeling did it in the first place!]]

* WhatAnIdiot: Calls you out on this if you joined with the Sabbat and how you've dug your own grave.

!! The Anarchs

* ManipulativeBitch: The Twins showcase their prowess in the Malkavian Clan Quest, [[spoiler:namely by killing Bertram and unleashing his virus on Camarilla servers, earning the Prince's wrath on the Nosferatu, but also gaining his favor by sending the Fledgeling to take down their servers.]] In the end, they get what they wanted.

* DullSurprise: [[spoiler: The Clan Quest mod doesn't change VV's response to the Fledgling asking her about the snuff film that the main Hollywood questline revolves around; Considering the expanded backstory that mod gives her, the mere mention of a snuff film should make her uncomfortable, and as such her response in the vanilla game comes off as this trope.]]

!! The Sabbat

!! Independents

!! Kuei-Jin
[[folder:Ming Xiao]]
Leader of the Kuei-Jin vampires in Chinatown. While her role isn't expanded on, speaking to Kalliyan gives the player new insights on her position.

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: She has, at maximum, ''four'' actual Kuei-Jin who follow her orders, all of whom die at the hands of the player. The rest of the Kuei-Jin eventually abandon her, leaving her with only mere humans to defend herself when the player arrives to take the key from her.
* NotSoDifferent: From [=LaCroix=]. She's trying to claim territory for her faction in a location hostile to her kind without proper backup from her superiors, and most of the underlings she's been given don't have any respect for her. Kalliyan gleefully notes that Xiao and [=LaCroix=] are both "one awkward silence away from being deposed".
* TheUnfought: If the player joins the Sabbat, they'll arrive at the Golden Temple to find that Xiao has already met her end at the hands of Nines, with her remaining minions slaughtered by the Camarilla/Anarch alliance.

[[folder:Kalliyan]]
After meeting up with Ming Xiao in Chinatown, a new NPC appears around where the cab is and asks if you want to go out for a night on the town. It soon turns out that this woman, Kalliyan, is actually a Kuei-Jin, but she's willing to hang out with a Kindred just to see how they're like. Her quest is known as "The Dance of the Thrashing Dragon".

!! Humans

A mortal teenager who Victoria tasks you with retrieving from The Mack for reasons she refuses to specify. She is Arturo's brother, who she loves but sees as overbearing. [[spoiler:She is also Victoria's great granddaughter.]]

* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: As per the vanilla PC, but now you can join the Sabbat and their Antitribu ranks. This is especially poignant for a Tremere Fledgeling, given the rarity of Tremere Antitribu and how hated they are by both the Tzimisce and their hierarchical Clan.

* MurderIsTheBestSolution: His Clan Quest involves him asking you to kill Skelter, while sending an Assamite Antitribu to aid you in the deed.

* MrExposition: For the Sabbat's philosophies, and for describing the Lasombra, Tzimisce, and Antitribu Clans.

* AxCrazy: Being a Malkavian Antitribu, it comes with the territory. He's noted to have made one of the congregation members who went back to doing drugs begin cutting open his own arms before draining him dead.

One of the Ducti within East LA, who has been there for awhile. Victoria is a Setite Antitribu, known as the Serpents of the Light. She controls various gangs such as the Latin Kings, and hooks people by vice and drugs to her cause, no matter what it may be.

* ManipulativeBitch: Comes with being a Setite, and not even being Antitribu makes her immune.

* MeaningfulName: The Malkavian Fledgeling refers to her as "The Serpent Queen". She is a Setite Antitribu, and she seeks to become the Bishop of East LA.

* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: He offers a way to get rid of the Assamite Antitribu, as he is collaborating with the Camarilla and thus should be killed. [[spoiler:He also tries betraying you, because he wants the Antediluvian to himself.]]

* TheHedonist: Indulges in art, skateboarding, pot and sex. It was the last bit with a Toreador Antitribu that got him in trouble with the Camarilla.

* FalseFlagOperation: The Baali PC can recieve a book in their mail, giving them the idea to infiltrate the Tremere Chantry not only to protect themselves but to survive. This mainly gives the option of the Tremere Chantry to a Baali PC.

* VegetarianVampire: The Salubri weakness is that they do not gain as much nourishment from human blood in general, recieving at least one point less at all feedings.

'''Malkavian Fledgeling:''' No hay problema, pero habla Ingles? [[BreakingTheFourthWall Por ellos]].[[labelnote: Translation]] There is no problem, but do you speak english? For them.[[/labelnote]]
* GuileHero [=/=] ManipulativeBastard: If you complete the East LA quests while remaining Camarilla/Anarch/Indpendant. At [=LaCroix's behest=], you'll infiltrate the Sabbat, gain the trust of one of the local Ducti, sit back and watch as they slaughter each other, then pick off the stragglers with Jesse's help. Moreover, you can often do so by sidestepping many of the missions they send you on; you can replace Ariana with one of Victoria's own drug smugglers, allow Hazel's troublesome real-estate agent walk free, murder all your packmates during "Grand Theft Auto", and pretend to kill Jesse by delivering his severed hand.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: There is some new quests where the Fledgeling can aid a gang as "repayment" for making the deal with the Tongs go south. This includes killing an attorney, discreetly killing a record producer who wouldn't let some guy's mixtape be used, and killing a senator cracking down on gang violence. You can now indulge in diablerie post-joining the Sabbat, and see the terror and anger in your would-be victims.

* KickTheDog: Quite literally. He's got Jesse under his thumb and has been presumably treating him just as bad as the Fledgeling if Jesse's words are anything to go by.

* BloodyMurder: He does have Thaumaturgy, [[spoiler:and he uses it to it's fullest potential if you fight him.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: She calls you out for being afraid of taking on [[TheDreaded The Sheriff]] or [[EvilSorcerer Maximillian Strauss]], and yet proceeds to practically piss herself if you've killed [[spoiler:[[NotQuiteDead (not really)]]]] Strauss in the conflict.

* InferredSurvival: Though given the okay to diablerize the Twins, after going through the dream world brought on by Dementation, if a Tremere Fledgeling goes back to the Asylum, the Twins aren't there anymore. Subverted if you later go through the Dance of the Thrashing Dragon, as Jeanette will still pop up to ask if she could join the fun.
** WordOfGod says they're still alive, albeit in hiding.

* WhatTheHellHero: They both call out the Tremere Fledgeling in the Tremere Clan Quest, being well aware of Strauss' request to learn the method behind Malkavians madness (and the entailment of diablerie if they don't get the answers they want). Which leads to a good dose of InfectiousInsanity.

* KilledOffscreen: [[spoiler:Arturo diablerizes her if you side with Victoria and honestly joined the Sabbat instead of infilitrating it for the Camarilla, making diablerizing her impossible unless you joined with Hazel Tomes]].

* AffablyEvil: Played with. He seems to treat the Fledgling kindly while within the Sabbat, and is willing to overlook failures or previous offenses against him if the Fledgeling has done things to outweigh the failure or rectify the previous offenses. He also gleefully teaches the Fledgling the ways of the Sabbat, as well as of it's clans and cultures.

* PetTheDog: He gives you a chance to join the Sabbat. What makes it a dog petting moment is that he offers this to the Tremere Fledgeling as well, who the Tzimisce are noted to hate en masse.

* AGodAmI: Though he never explicitly says it, he does uses church themes and his congregation come to worship him more than anyone else, and he is clearly a huge megalomaniac.
** One of his exceptionally long-winded rants is effectively him saying this without actually uttering the words. See BadassBoast below.

* ContinuityNod: Hazel uses the same disciplines as Vick in battle [[note]]Presence, Celerity and Necromancy[[/note]] despite the fact that they are not Malkavian clan disciplines; Presumably, he's the one who taught them to Vick.

** ColdHam: Certain questions or conversation topics will cause him to deliver his same manic gospel in a [[CreepyMonotone detached and extremely unnerving monotone]]. There's no real warning for when or where this will happen during a first playthrough, either.

* ManipulativeBastard: His plans against Victoria. [[spoiler:He gets you to deface Jesse's murals, then give Arturo a briefcase of aztec gold and say it was a peace offering from Victoria in exchange for Ariana's life. Then he embraces Ariana to be his childe, then reveal to Victoria that Arturo conveniently has her missing gold coins that were stolen from her safe earlier and to settle it all at the congregation. When everyone gets there, Victoria is [[RageBreakingPoint absolutely pissed]] that Ariana has been embraced, Arturo is pissed off at Victoria and going against her, and Jesse is pissed at everyone there and wants to kill them all with the only real force still there being Hazel's Pack.]]
* MeaningfulName: The Malkavian Fledgling refers to him as "The Father of Lies". While he serves as a Priest, he does not do so for Christianity, and instead only serves himself.

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: The vinculum forces him to work towards saving you for this instead of [[spoiler:letting you die after LaCroix's Sheriff throws you out of the Venture Tower.]] See [[HypocriticalHeartwarming]] above.

* AffablyEvil: Despite being manipulative and corruptive, she does genuinely care about her pack and will teach you things about the Sabbat, including various rites and people to know about. She does retain an affable demeanor as well.

* BerserkButton: Whatever you do, do not question Ariana's importance to her. It's none of your concern. [[spoiler:Especially as Ariana is her great granddaughter.]]

* GratuitousSpanish: A good portion of her dialogue is littered with spanish intermingling with english.

** If you side with her, when Arturo becomes a vampire, she also introduces him to Diablerie, as well as it's addictive nature. He gets hooked, getting stronger while also losing his humanity. Victoria says that this serves two purposes: either he'll learn to shackle his desires or he'll fall further and further to the Beast. It's likely that in the second case, she'd introduce him to alternate paths of enlightenment.

* BerserkButton: Messing up his art or killing his dogs are his. [[spoiler:If you side with Hazel, he wants you to deface Jesse's murals around town and kill the dogs guarding them for good measure to make him come to the chapel all pissed off. You can avert this by asking Jesse about it, having him lay low, then lying to Hazel about ruining the murals.]]

* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:As it turns out, Kalliyan was originally a young man named Kai. Kalliyan was his girlfriend, and they would go out and have a ball during university. Having sex, drugs, the whole schpiel. They eventually got drugs from someone who wasn't their usual guy, and they both died after shooting up. Later on, days after eating his own corpse, Kai realized he was in the body of Kalliyan and was a flesh-eating Chin-mei.]]

* GratuitousSpanish: A good portion of his dialogue is littered with spanish intermingling with english.

* TragicDropout: Because of The Mack's treatment of her, she's missed out on school so much that they've kicked her out. She's also lost all her friends because of this too.
