I know you wanted to know where this bunch of new vampire came from so here's what I found out from two of them. Sit down, you're not going to believe this.
This insane version of the Malkavian Clan started this way: A Malkavian was put into an insane asylum.
No biggie there.
In this asylum were two changelings, a House Eiluned sidhe and a Tao Qi Gui.
The sidhe was stuck in the asylum because he was 'accidentally' oathbound to the Tao.
Everybody in this asylum was on the first threshold of Bedlam, because of the Tao. When the Malkavian arrived, things got worse. The Malk and the Tao became friends, great friends. Their combined powers drove everyone in the asylum, mundanes, changelings and any other Malkavians farther down the road of Bedlam.
After a while the sidhe start falling into the third threshold of Bedlam. The Tao and Malk thought this was funny. His symptoms were part autism and part feral cunning. Mostly everyone in the sidhe's wing were in the throws of the third threshold. This suited the Malkavian to no end. He was in charge of an entire wing. The Tao found this to be a great adventure.
To get to the point. . .
When the sidhe slipped back to the Dreaming he somehow carried his entire wing with him. This included the Malkavian and the Tao.
I don't know how that happened. I wasn't there.
During the shift to Arcadia the Malkavian was transformed into a creature part-Malkavian, part-Tao Qi Gui.
When the wing arrived in Arcadia, they found a abandon Eiluned castle and set up shop. The mortals who were brought along had no choice. They were Embraced as soon as the Malkavian was re-formed.
I know, I know I haven't said why they are called 'Toonkavians', so I'll tell you. Look at their name. It tells you why they're called Toonkavians and what their dementia is.
The two I talk to looked like Hannibal Lecter and Merlin.
After hearing their explanation, don't even ask.
I found some. I'm sending them to you and not them. It seems that if you get involved in their "view of the universe" and play certain induviduals, like Q, the Master or the Joker, you can take advantage of this.
They are also obsessed with cartoons. Thank goodness for the Cartoon Network.
One more thing: they think of themselves as toons so some of the tricks from Who framed Roger Rabbit will work on them.
Man of 10,000 Faces: Because of the Toonkavians being part Tao Qi Gui they can shapeshift into different animals or people.
Dragon Wings: Toonkavians can make functional wings pop out of their back.
Just Like A Toon: Toonkavians have the same invulnerablities and thought patterns of standard toons. Setting one on fire is not a good thing.
Sunlight?? What sunlight??: Toonkavians can stand sunlight. It's a good thing that they only feed at night.
Glamour pools and Cantrips: Toonkavians have Glamour pools and cantrips like normal changelings.
Nosferatu: Back, Back fowl demon! Back I say!!
Pooka: You just got to love these guys.
Redcaps: Always have them cook up you victims. They just do something with the spices. Bon appetite.
Satyrs: I wish they hit on someone else besides me.
Sluagh: Great informants if you can stand the smell.
Tao Qi Gui: I must say, they have given us the gift of reality. We shall always be greatful.
Trolls: If you see one good one and one bad one, you seen them all.
Immortals: Their game is fun and I shall be the one.
Changelings: The rest of the changelings are something else entirely.
Wraiths: Great warriors and advisors. Always have some in you army.
Mages: Coming from one, they're alright. Always study, study, study. No time for toons. Such a pity. They would be happier if they would loosen up.
Well Your Highness. That's basically it. Any more information on this subject and you will have to ask them about it. Keep your eye on the Skull Brotherhood. Catch ya later.
The Changeling
Riddler of Fae
P.S. My opinion on the Toonkavians is this. . . The world was meant for weird creatures. I just wish that some of the weirdos would return to the Dreaming. They would be happier and less of a pain to the Kithain.
