Bloodsucker: The Batshit - XPRESS EDITION (PRINT)

YOU’RE NOT THAT GUY

You enjoy science fiction. You’ve watched the odd paranormal television programme. Perhaps you’ve even had a heated disagreement on the internet about whether vampires ought to sparkle.

That’s perfectly normal.

You don’t wear a Starfleet uniform to work. You don’t believe you’re the reincarnated soul of a half-elf, half-ocelot spirit warrior. You’ve never rugby-tackled an actor in the street to warn him that the government conspiracy is real.

You’re not that guy.

The Batshit are.

Bloodsucker: The Batshit – XPRESS Edition introduces the monstrous, fanatical and profoundly unstable outsiders of Bloodsucker society. While ordinary Bloodsuckers spend eternity sulking in nightclubs and composing terrible poetry, the Batshit have embraced the idea that they are genuine creatures of darkness.

They hunt, terrorise Mundanes, form violent little cults and take the whole vampire business much too seriously.

Inside this supplement you’ll find:

• True Cliques: monstrous reflections of the familiar Bloodsucker Cliques, reimagined for people who think behaving like a cheap horror-film villain is a sacred calling.

• Three new Cliques: the ruggedly antisocial Grizzlies, conspiracy-addled Shoddies and fashion-warping Sick Puppies.

• New Life Templates: including dentists, directors, lawyers, pimps, politicians, prison warders, spin doctors, soldiers, teachers, traffic wardens and used-car salesmen.

• New Powers: manipulate shadows, weaponise clothing and expose the shameful secrets buried within another person’s soul.

• The Diabolical Act of Munching: consume another Bloodsucker’s body, soul and supernatural power—because merely murdering your rivals lacks ambition.

• Batshit Society: rules for Prides, Alphas, Head Honchos, Circle Jerks and the mighty temporary office of the Triple H.

• New fiction, terminology and assorted material for making your Bloodsucker games substantially more deranged.

The Batshit are ideal as enemies, reluctant allies or player characters for gaming groups who looked at the original Bloodsuckers and thought:

“These people seem much too reasonable.”

Use them to add violent sectarianism, supernatural conspiracies, deranged fandom and full-blooded monster comedy to your campaign.

The night is full of terrible things.

Most of them have online manifestos.

PLEASE NOTE

This is deliberately crude adult satire from 2010, aimed at vampire roleplaying games, obsessive fandom, conspiracy culture and the more unhinged corners of alternative subculture.

It contains vulgarity, stereotypes, sexual references, violence and jokes displaying very little concern for the reader’s spiritual wellbeing.
