14 Vampire plot hooks from Witch of the Vale

Hunter on RPGnet liked the Episodes Based On Song Titles idea as recently showcased here and started a thread for more. So I felt I should contribute.

Fortunately, the most recent album I bought and the game I’m currently running fit together, being rather Goth.

Commemorate by Witch of the Vale

Something Lost
One of a vampire’s few human connections is moving away, ready to make a new and better life for herself. Can he really let go?

Fever
“Please, someone stake me, bury me, put me in the ground”
A vampire is infected with a blood borne disease. Can the coterie find a way to cleanse him before the Camarilla puts him down?

Trust the Pain
“Now you know we’re not good people”
A vampire finds herself unable to feel pain. Is this a sign of growing power, or of fading humanity?

Undressed
In a most intimate moment, a vampire’s lover sees what he really is/ Can they ever recover?

Death Dream
A vampire wakes from a shockingly vivid dream of someone dying - and realises that her hated sire has returned and plans to Embrace another victim. What can she do?

Crash
A car crash. The driver can’t possibly survive. So much blood. Would it really be wrong to take some?

The Sky and the Sea
A ship comes in with everyone on board dead. What came to port with it?

Your Voice
A vampire soprano finds someone recorded her last performance in life. What would she do to hear her living voice again, and how would it make her feel?

Commemorate
The Prince is dead, and his childe wishes a wake in his honour. Who would speak kindly of him? And who would dare speak true?

Suffocation
A vampire wakes to find herself in a coffin, buried in the city cemetery. How can she get out? And who put her there?

The Way This Will End

Gods & Monsters
A vampire cult worshipping a cruel ancient god comes to the city. What are they looking for here, and what happens if they find it?

The Ghosts Won’t Know
A seer of the Giovanni family approaches the coterie with a warning of a ghost stalking them. What have they done to bring this on themselves?

Live Again
