10 Video Game Villains You Can Secretly Join (And Be Better Off!)
5. Maximilian Strauss - Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
As you may tell by the game's title, the world of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is occupied by shadowy vampire organizations that seek to control and exploit humanity.
Of these organizations, the biggest one is arguably Camarilla, an oppressive sect where every new vampire has to play by the rules and whimsy of their elders, which you're forced to work for, only to be betrayed by it later.
However, just because they betray you, it doesn't mean you can't want to go back.
Yes, although at the end of the game, the Prince of Camarilla turns against you, it is possible for you to still support the sect and help it take over Los Angeles with the help of the Tremere primogen, Strauss.
If you fulfilled a number of morally dubious tasks for Strauss, such as killing his runaway gargoyle slave, in the finale, your character will be able to visit him and devise a plan to eliminate the Prince.
Doing this will unlock a special ending where Strauss takes over the sect and lets you be his right-hand vamp as the new Camarilla dominates the city.
Not a bad way to spend an eternity, huh?
