About the adventure

Your not human. Far from it in fact, you are someone who was created via strange alchemies & occult rituals. Whether you where carved from marble or stiched together from the dead, you where given some semblance of life. A promethean with the divine fire burning inside them. But then your maker left, just like everyone does. Your very existence creates a disquiet in the world around you, causing even the kindest person to lash out eventually. So you wandered, from the depths of the smokey mountains to the steel city of pittsburgh. You meet others like you, & some who your creator also made. Only they understand your pain, & your desire to become more then this. To become human. But to start the pilgrimage you need answers, & only your creator can give you that. The pieces each of you shared of clues & writings he left, hinted at his likely location. Somewhere in Willow County Kentucky. But can you find him, get the answers you seek, & maybe even find a way to become a real human being?

Additional details

How to prepare

A discord account with quality microphone that allows for clear communication without undue background noise & a stable internet connection. Those who are operating on mobile hot spots will not be fast enough to stay connected with foundry. A PC that can meet the requirements to run Foundry Virtual Tabletop. Netbooks & chrome books I have found in the past do not meet meet these requirements. Familiarity with the Promethean the Created 2nd Edition rules is good but not required.

What I provide

I will be supplying the Foundry VTT for use with our game, with all the basic rules of Chronicles of Darkness input into it. Full custom graphics & NPC interfaces I've programed for it specifically.

Gameplay details

This game will focus on a group of newly created Prometheans, artificially created people, who are seeking to find answers about the meaning of their existence. The game will start with the group making its way to willow county kentucky, but will then later on expand into the greater Appalachian region as the Prometheans continue their pilgrimage. The created are unable to dwell in one place too long because of their divine fire, so this game will have heavy themes of isolation & exploration of all aspects of humanity. The good, bad, & ugly parts will all received focused attention through the story. Characters will ultimately all be working together for the goal of becoming human, & fighting the pandorians along the way that would rob you of your divine fire. Extempore lineages will not be allowed in this game. Most sessions will be a mixture of investigation, role playing & combat depending on where the current plot line is going. Combat is also very dangerous & realistic, so characters becoming injured or close to death isnt impossible. Sexual content will always fade to black if it occurs, & will never occur between player characters unless all involved players consent. Lines & veils will also be honored & set up ahead of the chronicle via discord chat, so that I can fine tune any plot content to avoid things players may not want to face in game. Additionally, I am always online via my discord both during & outside of game should you need to bring something to my attention, whether thats a veil thats being approached too close or something makes you uncomfortable.

How will character creation work

Character generation will occur during a zero session with everyone present. This is as much to make sure we all mesh as a group of people as it is to make the characters, backgrounds & get everyones equipment setup. We will also discuss lines & veils for the game(please Private message me ahead of time if your uncomfortable with expressing these in a live chat). For those that join later, a one on one zero session will be scheduled outside of the normal game time to make you a character. Afterwards communication & further background info will be conducted with everyone via a discord channel on the server I use. No character's will be approved prior to the zero session. This includes pre-generated characters, & all players will be required to meet the same character creation expectations of the table, which may vary from group to group. With this setting, focus will be laid more on what your character is like before their awakening to magic, which will have a greater effect on the setting then rotes & arcana at first. Characters will be limited to gnosis 1, & a heavy emphasis will be required on your sleeper life prior to your awakening in character creation. Resources will be capped at 2 for this game, & concepts related to state/federal government & active military will not be allowed.
