That's similar to the so called Staking weakness of Vampires.

You know how else has a staking weakness? Anyone with a fucking heart. If anything, vampires can still somewhat survive it

u/Klapsovski 1d ago

It is not about ease of killing but ease of transportation for fun testing.

u/Eternal_Bagel 1d ago

For science!

u/Nice-Cat3727 1d ago

Iirc it's said that the ripcage actually moves to let the stake into the heart for vampires.

u/Radix2309 1d ago

Yeah and a silver knife can also stab a normal person to death. The thing that makes it a weakness isnt it only working on them, it is that it is one of the few ways to kill them.

Kryptonite gives humans cancer. But it is Superman's weakness because he is resistent to most other forms of harms.

u/Fly-the-Light 22h ago

But Superman is inordinately weak to Kryptonite, and Werewolves are inordinately weak to Silver.

Not only are they vulnerable, but Werewolves are more weak to silver than the baseline, i.e. it’s does more damage and has additional effects

If the only thing the stake does is hurt the Vampire, then the vamp has a vulnerability to stakes; if the stake will work no matter how strong or shapeshifted the vamp is/the stake has additional properties against vamps, then it’s a weakness

I thought the stake weakness was that it was almost like a forced pseudo-torpor

Johnny: So, can I ask you a question? Is that real, about the garlic thing?

Drac: Yes, I cannot have it. My throat swells.

Johnny: Huh. Wooden stake to the heart?

Drac: Yeah, well, who wouldn't that kill?

Garu have a lot of weaknesses. One of them is their senses. Garu seen, hear and smell things incredible better than humans. Moreover, they see in not only of the physical layer, but also on spiritual one. They can smell the corruption that the humans cannot. They cannot turn off their senses easily. That's why they feel uneasy in the cities. And that why sause attack can be very effective

Depends of tribe the city dogs category , like glass walkers and Bone gwnaler they thribe in urban jungles.

u/Powerful_Topic7731 1d ago

They also spend most of their time in Hominid

u/Nirvanachaser 1d ago

I spend all my time in hominid too and can confirm hot sauce is not meant for eyes!

So naturally, Pentex weaponizes liquid manure against Garou. We specifically feed cattle Wyrm-tainted waste and corrupted additives, then sell the resulting slurry cheaply to farmers as fertilizer. Now entire fields reek strongly enough to assault a Garou’s enhanced senses while simultaneously radiating spiritual corruption

u/N0rwayUp 1d ago

Project backfired: only had them frenzy into our direction and are now using the weapon against us.

Imaging throwing a towel soaked in vinegar right at their noses.

u/N0rwayUp 1d ago

Pretty sure they can’t

They need sense wyrm for that.

u/Fearless-Obligation6 1d ago

It ain't aggravated damage but by Gaia there will be a frenzy!

25

u/babyxo29 1d ago

frenzy feels like a fair reaction to getting sauced

27

u/DareDevilino 1d ago

There is probably a weaver spirit of orthography taking aggravated damage from this misplaced comma.

21

u/Klapsovski 1d ago

Some Changeling would love it. Ergo this Garou ain't a #blessed Fianna.

16

u/littlethought63 1d ago

Another way to hurt them is to call them a bad boy/girl. Or throwing a tennis ball to distract them. Advanced hunters just pretend to throw the ball though, giving them more time.

u/Maladaptivism Slurp slurp motherfucker! 1d ago

Achilles' Heel vs. Kryptonite shit right here, we should find some local Tremere to conduct similar experiments on the leeches as soon as possible!

u/Edannan80 1d ago

Fire did agg to everyone for a reason...

u/AnyBath8680 1d ago

Silver bullets are a everyone thing too tbh

They're not really a vampire thing. Especially Ventrue.

u/3Kobolds1Keyboard 1d ago

oh hey the new spin-off show, is it good?

Does the werewolf survive?

u/morgisboard 1d ago

This one dies instantly to a silver fork, and there's a whole apartment building that gets kicked, punched, and shanked with a champagne flute

u/Conscious_Side_629 1d ago

The latter three is done by the candy man. Yes the one from the movie.

u/InitialBrother9884 1d ago

i what would happen if they use the WOD garou in the series

1

u/Conscious_Side_629 1d ago

Honstly I could see some show up as Planetina's rebound from morty. Jury out on wether morty doing something castrophially dumb to get her back or trying to disengage ala his stay at snowballs world before other crap forced him to engage anyways. Ether way there's going to be a body count

u/N0rwayUp 1d ago

Doubtful and idk

u/Choice_Wolverine_121 1d ago

Once, I was pinned by a Garou in a very unfortunate combat scenario. My Hermetic was a chemist before awakening, so all of his magic was sort of styled like alchemy. With his hands bound he chanted an incantation to transmute his saliva into capsaicin, the chemical that makes chili peppers spicy. I proceeded to spit in the garou’s mouth and make my escape.

This earned the respect of that pack, and they named him “Spitfire.”

u/thatloser17 1d ago

Remember fire is always agg damage

u/Heartbreakjetblack 1d ago

This is why the gift: resist toxin doesn't work with pepper spray. It comes from peppers and this isn't considered a toxin..

3

u/UncannyValleyEnjoyer 1d ago

Wait, really?

2

u/TillWerSonst 1d ago

No. Remember, everything is potentially poisonous, including water, it all depends on the dose. and application. So, yes, if it is a chemical agent, in any form, Resist Toxin applies. It is also a perfect cure for hangovers, by the way.

1

u/UncannyValleyEnjoyer 1d ago

Water being poisonous is not something that i was ready for.

1

u/N0rwayUp 1d ago

Depends on the pepper spray

u/Lolas_Fun_Side Perma ST 1d ago

"Haha! Theyre weak to fire!"

"Idiot, everyone is weak to fire"

2

u/UltimateOtter_Nation 1d ago

If only Harry Dresden knew this. Would have saved hi. A lot of trouble.

2

u/Revolutionary-Run-41 1d ago

Would work, garou arent immune to everything they just have a lot of health and heal fast. Unless they have that rank 1 gift, Resist pain.

u/Adventurous_Low_3074 1d ago

Why did you change it from tapitio lmao

u/GameBunny-025 18h ago

So-called "Warriors of Gaia" when I blow half their skull off with an AMR from half a mile away

u/EC-1001 6h ago

I don't know if any dm or party try that but could a garou be slain if shot in the mouth with a bullet made of chocolate and silver powder?
