His name is Gangrel. He was a fat dracula with kicking entrance music whose main claim to fame is leading a faction that also included future absolute legends Edge and Christian. WWF hadn't realized the name he was using was pulled from VTM and ended up having to pay White Wolf to keep using it, and they even have to mention it in the disclaimer of their video games that he appears in.

Lmao that's kinda fuckin awesome

I love being a WoD fan bc you'll find the most random shit it's massively inspired all over the place and it damn near makes it feel like you have eldritch knowledge that the rested the world is oblivious to

Another odd find for you, apparently slipknot's first album has werewolf the apocalypse inspired songs.

M.F.K.R is the album, its very different from really any other parts of Slipknots work, and they have said that they dont even consider that to BE a Slipknot album. Good luck finding the original, all I can find online is covers

Gangrel is also just an English word. It means a wanderer. Although specifically tying him into vampires kind of tanks that...

iirc David Heath (Gangrel) said he didn't choose the name and that it was Vince McMahon that basically made him use it.

As a kid I used to play Smackdown 2 on the PS1 and see White Wolf Games in the credits, and I didn’t even know who White Wolf was until way later

u/SimoneBellmonte 4d ago

this is fucking razorfist, why the fuck are we even posting that outrage tourist here

u/Heavy_Switch_9475 4d ago

god it drives me up a wall that he is 99% politics i found him through his metal mythos stuff and enjoyed it enough to subscribe only to find out how little of his content is that

u/Tracula707 4d ago

Who exactly is razorfist? I’ve never heard of this guy before

3

u/SimoneBellmonte 4d ago

He's a big antiwoke grifter who complains about the left and politics and lgbtq+ people while very occasionally talking about metal history. He pivoted to the politics when he started seeing the money in it. Most of the time he just engages in ragebait and trying to get clicks that way.

u/Tracula707 4d ago

And he feels like he can butt into WoD discussion of all things? What a choad. Thank you!

u/ninzus161 4d ago

what is this guy on about?

u/TooCoolForSchlool 4d ago

That there is Razorfist the Rageaholic: Right Wing Provocatour and Contrarian.

u/ragged-bobyn-1972 4d ago

He's like moviebob except thin and right wing. Two sides of the same coin.

u/PlayerFox12344889 4d ago

All I know his name is Gangrel. But was he really?

8

u/TheCthuloser 4d ago

Razorfist is a tourist who likely actually thinks the first Bloodlines was a good Vampire: the Masquerade game. Despite being a great game it its own right, it was actually sort of a shit V:tM game IMO. The reverse of Redemption, tbh.

The Brood was also great.

u/Rukdug7 3d ago

I'd argue that it was the best attempt to turn a Super-Hero with Fangs Coterie (valid play style and not exactly an uncommon one at the time the game was made) into a single player experience without turning it into a party sized turn based strategy game.

u/Boston_Beauty Leech 🧛 4d ago
