HARANAUGLOSK - The Long Defeat

About the adventure

We are half-way through the campaign. Dramatically it is a good timing to join at this point. A big shift is going to take place in the Umbra and the Sept needs new brothers to join the fight and endure the long defeat. Do not feel impressed by joining a campaign midway, the group is very kind and agile, we will accomodate you perfectly, cosy cosy. :) A campaign (21 up to 30 sessions) aimed at people looking to dive deep into gothic-horror and what it is to be a Garou in this damned age of Apocalypse. Story: The campaign is themed around Garou ageing and their struggle through the Long Defeat against Harano and Hauglosk, those two spiritual afflictions that burden Gaia's protectors all along their impossible journey. Campaign structure: -Chapter 1: 3 sessions on Human (born in the 70s-90s)>First Change>New born, and 3 sessions on first steps and schooling, -Chapter 2: 9 up to 18 sessions on Maturity, -Chapter 3: 6 sessions on old and wise or old and mad... -If your character dies midway you create another one of that same age group and keep going from there. The goal is to have you experience these four stages of the life of a Garou: pre-change, new born, adult and elder. -There will be cuts and time lapses in order to keep the arc going and the structure balanced. Safety: No lines and veils, only common sense, a good sense of humour and open-minded communication between members of the group. We run other projects open to beginners that make definite use of these legitimate tools, but the concept for this game is a little different: it revolves around each participant's determination and willingness to explore and transcend one's personal fears. Themes: Deep psychological conundrum and the facing of one's real fears and troublesome questionings. Face to face with that doubtful stuff we call humanity. We are particularly interested in Harano and Hauglosk and how those develop and are dealt with by Garou over the course of a life time. A game not for the faint-hearted. Skill level: A sense of what makes a scene dynamic and knowing when to pass the ball, with a balanced use of first person to third person play. Strong emphasize on teamwork and character to character interaction. Sessions: The scenario will be heavily tailored to the characters created during Session 0. Session 1 will happen two to three weeks after Session 0. Application: Adi will invite every applicants to a vc interview to make sure all the participants are on the same page.
