Boston by Night: V5 🏳️‍🌈 [New Player friendly]

Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition | Campaign

About the adventure

Night falls over Boston. Things have changed in the city, the rise of the organization firstlight threatens all kindred whether you are Sabbat, Camarilla or Anarch. In trying times such as these the young must band together to ensure survival. The beckoning had called many of the elders away and now the power vaccume has turned Kindred against Kindred. The masquerade has been what has protected us for centuries but too many now know our secrets. Organizations like Firstlight have taken to hunting us much the same as we hunt only their hunger cannot be sated. Most of the elders are gone and in their wake a power vacuum forms. Kindred is pitted against Kindred in a race to see who can claim what was left behind but we must be careful not to let our guard down because now the hunter becomes the hunted. Tell your story as a neonate in the city of Boston, a city that runs a bit differently than other cities. There are traditions here that are older than the colonies.

Game style

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Theater of the Mind

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
