    I was about to say she gets vaporized but then I noticed the 2015 Doom thing.

    Honestly she should be able to from the jump act first and thus via advanced obfuscate movie Doom no longer even thinks she's there. At that point she has all the time in the world to come up with whatever thing.

    Though really unless someone can come up with some kickass willpower performance for terrible movie Doom, by "come up with whatever thing", I mean she just uses dominate. Or, yeesh, her bemusingly advanced presence discipline. She doesn't even really need to bother with obfuscate in that sense. Just make majesty backed with ironclad command go, and there you are.

    I'm unfamiliar with this character. Does she have some sort of speed edge?

    Yeah. Not metric tons of it or anything, but unless 2015 movie Doom has enhanced reaction time she doesn't really need tons.

    Eh, not really. I was wondering if this was a quick draw situation but seems not.

    I got confused with my versions of Baba Yaga and momentarily had a small hope that this was going to be Frau Totenkinder from Fables versus comic Doom. That would be rad.

    Actually, I'll just make the thread myself.

    Or basically pulls him apart. Unless Doom in the 2015 movie has the kind of oomph to withstand her level of strength, which I guess is possible.

    Or does something awful with Thaumaturgy, which is also ridiculously high for her.

    Out of the Methuselahs actually given stats, Baba Yaga wasn't exactly a lightweight.

    Doesn't she also have Iron claws and monstrous beasts at her beck and call?

    Could Doom fight her even without Presence and Obfuscate? Trying to get an idea of where she is physically.

    Don't know if the following will have a lot of meaning to most, but....

    She's surprisingly not enormously physically powerful by the standards of all fiction, but that's because Vampire the Masquerade doesn't go for Class 100 vampires (outside of Antediluvians) . Her Strength is a couple of notches higher than 'Throw a truck' (by truck, we're talking delivery truck), but not a lot (so maybe 'toss around a semi?). She's not at all in the 'Splits Mountains' range. Speedwise, she's far, far faster than a normal human, but not into speedster territory (Celerity is 'only' three with a Dexterity of six). Toughness, she clocks in slightly tougher than she is strong.

    Her top powers are (oddly enough for a Nosferatu) Presence, Dominate, and Thaumaturgy, that last easily being equal or greater to any vampire not named Tremere (including all of Tremere's 4th generation toadies). But her disciplines (including Auspex, Obfuscate, Animalism, Fortitude, Potence, as well as the ones already noted) in general range between 7 and 9, with a couple of 3's (Protean and the aforementioned Celerity), so she's ridonkously powerful even for a Methuselah. Her stats are ALL between 6 and 9 (except appearance, natch), many of her skills are in the same range....

    ...and she is noted to have the derangement 'Delusions(?) of Grandeur'. I didn't add the question mark myself, either.

    Given she's one of the older Methuselahs, clocking in at over 7000 years (Kindred like Helena and Menele aren't even close), this is not surprising.

    Here.

    Hmm, is seven Potence really throw a truck level? I thought it'd be somewhat higher. I suppose the Disciplines grow exponentially though.

    Throwing trucks around might not be enough to hurt 2015 Doom, I suppose. Not that it matters because of the mental Disciplines + magic, but yeah.
