They aren't really incompatible in game. For Vampires, a Lupine should be an OH FUCK OH SHIT OH FUCK tier enemy to most parties, either a run (smart) or fight as a team (good luck) encounter.

Did your Toreador solo a lupine by themselves? Were they a powerful Elder, or the world's luckiest roller?

Yeah. One time in tt, our malk and a setite met one on the Santa Monica pier. Malk got a miraculous 8 successes on Athletics to get away (took a picture of it), while the setite did the smart thing and dove into the water.

Not an elder, but a martial artist with max Celerity. Still lost though, because at the time I sucked at challenges.

Toreador tend to be obsessive and perfectionists about their art. If one decides their "art" is a form of combat, they're probably bad enough dudes to fuck most opponents up at max speed, respect!

Yup, that's totally how I played him. Just like Ryu from Street Fighter, committed to his art. Except with better manners and fashion sense.
