Safety

How Storyteller Steve (Vancouver by Night) creates a safe table

This is a world of darkness involving Vampires, Werewolves and other denizens of the World of Darkness, these will have mature themes and there will likely be a lot of talk of blood and powers that involve taking away player agency, I will attempt to minimize NPCs using dominate powers on the players, but there will be discussions about all of this at the session zero. Yellow and Red cards will be used as well during gameplay and players will fill out a form to be tabulated along with the other players yellow and red cards into a list that we will discuss at session zero of topics to avoid.
