Editing Baba Yaga (section)

==Vampire: The Masquerade==
In Vampire: The Masquerade, Baba Yaga, also known as Medusa, yet another alias of hers, is one of the many names of the Matriarch, progenitor of the Nosferatu.

The Matriarch, a figure shrouded in mystery, is a horrendously powerful [[Nosferatu]] Methuselah in [[White Wolf]]'s [[World of Darkness]]. Once a beatiful young woman and a shaman of her tribe, she defied Absimilard, a [[Antediluvian]], who is one of the greatest sick fucks in World of Darkness. She did this as a mere mortal, making her the [[Ollanius Pius]] of VtM. Pius died in glory however, but the Matriarch?

[[Grimdark|She was brutally raped by Absimilard, turned into a vampire, and became one of his concubines.]] After Caine cursed Absimilard to be uglier than the shit I took yesterday, the curse also went to his childer, making them look like atrocious monsters. After the fall of Second City, she managed to break her blood bond, the mystical chain that made her a slave to Absimilard, [[Awesome|with no help from anyone, showing that her willpower stat is over 9000]].

In spite, she sired the Nosferatu clan and went to war with Absimiliard. Absimilard sought to kill all his descendants, due to being scared shitless of Caine, who commanded the Antediluvians to keep their generation and numbers low, unless they wanted another "visit" from him, meanwhile the Matriarch was siring childer every fucking night while wandering the world. Anyway, she either drove Absimiliard to torpor in Antartica, or sent him fleeing to the depths of the Atlantic Ocean. It's unknown how she managed such a feat, but it happened most likely thanks to the help of [[Werewolf: The Apocalypse|Koshchei the Deathless, a Talon of the Wyrm.]] After that, she took the name Baba Yaga, and claimed the lands of Russia as her domain. She fell into torpor a few centuries later, only waking up during [[Twilight Struggle|Cold War]], when she created the magical Iron Curtain that caused the rest of the supernatural world to be cut off from [[Communism|Soviet]] Russia during the while she did bad things to those pansy Brujah commies inside. A charming specimen, she was an eight foot tall vampire with iron claws, iron fangs, skin covered in pustules, and a stereotypical long crooked nose.

She was later killed by another childe of her sire, a Nictuku (scary Nosferatu-hunting vampire assassin) that took the form of a [[Loli|small girl]] by the name of Vasilisa. If this sounds like a certain Russian fairy tale, you're paying attention. Unfortunately, White Wolf just had to White Wolf when writing the scene itself...

Vasilisa reads herself as the writers' self-insert [[Fanfic|fan-fiction]], as her introduction proper to the players is to [[What|instantly kill Baba Yaga in front of them and demands them to give up all their Nosferatu friends (Read: Other players) or they will all instantly die with no saves.]] The stat sheet for Vasilisa ([[Mary Sue|if you can even call it that]]) simply stays she just wins against any attempt to stop her, killing any person reluctant to give up a campaign's worth of character growth with a Discipline chart saying she [[Derp|"Transcends disciplines all together" and should not be statted ever]] and she's twice the age of Baba Yaga. [[Lulz|For those with a basic understanding of math, Baba Yaga was created roughly 7000 years old, while Absimiliard was embraced 10,000 years ago, meaning Vasilisa would have somehow been embraced by him 4000 years before he was embraced himself.]]

She was certainly evil, but held the line against a even more terrible evil, her sire, one of the Antediluvians. That certainly deserves respect.
