How does the Sabbat even plan to kill the Antediluvians?
I was busy putting together the author materials to see what an Avatar of Lasombra would fight like (the answer is basically unkillable - according to an author, Lasombra basically just has a Domain Expansion that makes fighting him suicide, and that’s not mentioning the Shadow Sorcery he has), and I just realized:
What makes the Methusalehs who know almost everything about the WoD think that they have a fraction of the chance?
Everything I said is in the title, except for the Urine Tetrahedron. I don’t think that would work on any Antediluvian.
Like, yeah. Of course vampires are parts of their Ancestor’s plans. Why else would Lasombra let his physical body get eaten?
The thing I’m confused about is how the two clans that have two of the three hardest to kill Antediluvians plan to do it.
Sure, if you got 20 Celerity 9 Potence 9 vampires to jump Haqim it might work, but most of them will die to his afterimage anime bullshit - and Haqim is \*on the weaker side because he’s still a single discrete entity\*.
Like, the 4th gen’s and 5th gen’s that helped found the Sabbat already know. Tzimisce is a lump of cancer that is present in multiple separate locations. Bombing it might just spread spores everywhere.
Lasombra, on the other hand? Forget it. It would canonically be easier to slam Mars into Venus than to kill Lasombra. That guy isn’t even corporeal. He’s a soul that controls and is part of the prison that God shoved the fallen angels into.
Malkav is literally a mental construct. Killing him is impossible for a vampire because entering whatever realm it exists in is beyond the scope of blood magic. Even if they could, that guy survived the Avatar Storm (the madness network is still intact after Ravnos got vaporized)
So how do the Sabbat Elders intend on doing literally anything to kill them? The most I could think of is getting the guys who can rewrite the laws of all matter and energy, but vampires will never trust Kine to do this. Plus they’d probably fuck it up or be even bigger threats - aside from Kyle, only objective villains would have the capability for such an endeavor.
So, are the Sabbat elders just lying their asses off? Or do they have plans and methods for killing the Antediluvians? What would be examples of this plan aside from “killing random Cainites who are 8 generations removed from the actual blood god”?
