I don't like killing off PCs in my chapter for the atrocious things they've done. In fact, I tend to avoid it.

Why? Because they should live and suffer. Suffer horribly. Morality loss isn't just a dot on their character sheets. It means quality personal time with me, their duly elected torturer. Mortals don't really like hanging out with low-morality undead, it gives them the creeps. Allies, Influences, Contacts, Herd?--They're looking for a new employer that doesn't snarl at them, back them into a corner and abuse them. Did I mention that I love writing up nightmares? If you see me whispering in players' ears at games, don't mind me, I'm just their Beast. Oh, so you diablerized... well, let me talk to the player of the character you diablerized so that I can get a good idea of the soul you just swallowed--heck, I might just give them your character sheet for a while during random games or let them play your Beast.

Yes, this is the World of Darkness. The strong live and the weak die. The question is, are you strong enough to survive being bad?
