About the adventure
๐ฉธ A Chronicle of Shadows & Secrets - Deep Investigation & Dialogue-Driven Play โ You will unravel conspiracies, navigate treacherous alliances, hunt both mortals and monsters and try to survive the brutal nights of New York City. - Three Sects, Three Paths โ Play as Camarilla loyalists, Anarch revolutionaries, or (for the experienced) a Sabbat war pack, each with their own deadly stakes. - A Perfect Entry Point โ Using the core rules unaltered, this game is accessible for newcomers while still offering depth for veterans. I'm a patient and thorough storyteller and will make extra time for helping newer players to learn the game. - Mature & Thought-Provoking Themes โ A serious, investigative horror-driven tone with moments of levity, akin to The X-Files or From (2024) This is ๐๐จ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฆ๐. Itโs raw, immersive, and built for those who crave a gripping narrative and unforgettable moments, all with killer visual and sound design. ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฏ๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐จ๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ฃ๐ฐ๐ญ๐ฅ. ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ช๐ต๐บ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐จ๐ด ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฏ๐ฐ ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ. New York City is a powder keg, and the spark is about to hit. Itโs 1996, and the Anarchs hold the throne, if only by the skin of their fangs. The Camarilla are digging in, ready to claim the city as their own, while the Sabbat lurks in the shadows; waiting for the moment to turn the streets into a charnel house. Your coterie stands at the crossroads of history. Will you fight for order? Burn it all down? Or carve out your own bloody empire in the chaos? ๐ฆ ๐๐ฐ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐ง๐ณ๐ข๐บ. ๐๐ช๐ค๐ฌ ๐ข ๐ด๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ. ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ฉ๐ช๐ด๐ต๐ฐ๐ณ๐บ. ๐๐ข๐ ๐ง ๐ฎ๐ฉ ๐ง๐จ๐ฐโ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ง๐ข๐ ๐ก๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ซ.

Cool dude, really vivid descriptions and ideas that immerse you in the world and makes the people that live in it feel alive. Can take the ideas you have and really flesh them out superbly. Hopefully he gets an uptick of players in the future for his games, he deserves it.

HES SO COOL AND SEGSY
Yakone
Very dedicated to his games, goes in depth with details and storyline. Actually focuses on each Player Character and takes their backgrounds into account. Listens to his players. Always happy to help with any problems or questions you might have. Inclusive, as a queer player I've always felt welcome in his games.
Natsuki Mew
He is very passionate about crafting an engaging game combining an immersive virtual tabletop experience with excellent voice acting.
Matthew
Highly committed to their games and always puts player enjoyment first. Blends a deep understanding of core mechanics with in-depth and expansive homebrew, but is always willing to bend those rules if it tells a cooler story.
Lassjask
I have played in a few of Marcus's games and every one of them have been a great experience. He puts in more effort than any other DM I know and is always willing to go the extra mile for his players. He does sometimes use some homebrew feats but they are always balanced and if nothing else enhances the game. As far as story telling goes he always finds a way to make it interesting with twist and turns that throw you off and keeps you engaged. So I personally would highly recommend Marcus.

Gameplay details
I have a anonymous x-card system in foundry for situations that come up on the fly but I discuss any potential triggers in advance with the individual and then the group again in session 0. Breaks are done roughly every 1.5 hours for around 5-10 minutes.

How will character creation work
Creating your character isnโt just about statsโitโs about weaving them into the heart of the story. Thatโs why I offer one-on-one character creation sessions (completely free of charge) before Session 0. During this time, weโll work together to tailor your character to the narrative, ensuring they fit seamlessly into the world and the group dynamic. Once everyone has their characters, Session 0 will bring the group together to discuss expectations, define how we want the game to play, and establish the Chronicle Tenetsโthe guiding themes and rules that shape our story. Whether you're a newcomer or a veteran, Iโll be available for any questions along the way, making sure you feel confident and excited to step into the world of darkness.
