Can you recommend the best Malkavian stories for a newbie to the lore?
There's a story about a Malkavian who was certain that the moon was made of cheese. But not just any cheese, a very special vampire - resistant cheese. So he spent his time building a ladder to reach the moon and sample it. This story is simple but really shows how their minds work in a fun way. It's a great starting point for understanding the Malkavian lore.
Sure. A classic is the story of the Malkavian who believed he was a detective in a noir movie. He would go around the city at night, interrogating other vampires and mortals alike, with a cigarette always in his hand and speaking in a deep, gravelly voice. It gives a great feel for the Malkavian's quirkiness.
