About the adventure

The year is 1991. The Wyrm's corruption has spread far, but nowhere has Gaia suffered like the Empire State. From Manhattan’s crowded tenements to the toxic waste pits of Love Canal, the land is scarred and tainted. But the Garou will not hold back their rage any longer—the time to strike back against the Wyrm has come. Your characters will face the savagery of their new lives as Garou. If you can survive your Rite of Passage, the Elders will give you new missions to combat the Wyrm wherever it spreads its ugly tentacles of corruption and decay.

Gameplay details

The list of content warnings are examples of what may come up in play. We will, of course, calibrate this list according to player wishes. The players decide what degree of historical accuracy the campaign involves in terms of feudalism, theocracy, and so on. I send out a veils and lines document to players before Session 0. We go through this comprehensively during Session 0. The document is a living one, and players should always feel free and encouraged to refine and recalibrate it during the campaign.

How will character creation work

A part of Session 0 is spent on fleshing out concepts players bring to the table, including background stories, connection with humans, etc. How did they grow up? Who was mom and dad? Siblings? Work? What are your character's guiding values and tragic personality flaws? Your PC will: 1. Have a clear motivation. 2. Be able to collaborate effectively with other party members. 3. Have a foil within the group: someone will complement your weaknesses or serve as a friendly rival. 4. Have a well-defined personality weakness. Use the 7 deadly sins for inspiration. 5. Have a well-defined backstory. Background Story Requirements: 1. Your story must align with the setting. 2. Your character's backstory should not exceed their current level of power. 3. Be concise, no longer than one page. 4. Include a list of three enemies, three allies, and three acquaintances that are relevant to your character's story.
