Yeah, I'm sure Connor would struggle, I just don't think he'd lose instantly.

The thing is, though, even if this is actually valid and he really is strong enough to just brush Connor aside, it's still unreasonable. He's thrown in a really powerful character and then activated his powerful nature in response to Lantz acting reasonably towards a rather dubious-looking stranger, and now he's insisting on being able to kill or cripple Lantz's characters without Lantz getting to even put up a fight.

Most likely thing that's going to happen is that Jack gets a bite off, then Connor kicks him off and they get into a brutal melee as the Beast redirects its priorities.

And from there, I dunno how it'd go, given Jack is frenzied and Connor is... well, not a pushover.

[13:38:48] Kat: Even the toilet god?
[13:38:56] Helligator: No one worships toilets.
[13:39:00] Helligator: Don't be a shitlord.

[04:32:08] Helligator: I can't make dragons in power armor like this

[19:50:12] francobull III: [...] why are you being all assive aggressive?

[23:32:37] Helligator: use the narrative as a means to convey an interesting story and cool conflicts with the openness you're allowed
[23:32:43] Helligator: not to CHEAT stories and conflicts

Well, other characters will certainly get involved. Kiyoshi wouldn't ignore Connor's call, and I would imagine there are others in the house that also wouldn't (probably Lancer, if only because he wouldn't want to miss a good fight).

Well, here's the thing - he didn't activate it because he wanted to, Frenzy isn't really something you activate for yourself. Sure, you can, but Riding The Wave isn't what Jack is doing right now.

He's hungry, there's a threat in front of him, there was a loud noise, EX charisma 'Bite me bite me' signals getting sent out, and he just wants to leave. It's not a 'Fuck you Lantz' power, its a survival mechanism, something Vampires do to keep themselves alive. It's part of being Kindred. The Beast is going to win out at some points, and it did here.

That instinct, is FEED FEED FEED FEED FEED FEED

Connor is 1/4 Celtic God and probably has quite a few magic abilities as well, not to mention incredible physical reinforcement he probably learned from Bazett.

Sure Jack is in a Frenzy, but Connor isn't a push over either.  Honestly, I think both of them are going to get hurt.  Unless Jack bites Connor and causes him to JIZZ IN HIS PANTS.

Well, he has to get at him first. Plus, Kiyoshi is going to hear his shout and come running, as will several others, most likely.

Basically. Well, it could be worse.

He could be 100% her bitch!

At least, as Lancer can attest, she's a good master though!

And some lucky man is going to get Forest's "cherry".
