About the adventure
As a newer Kindred in London, your world has been irrevocably transformed in ways you’re only beginning to understand. The city's neon-lit streets and towering skyline seem familiar but now pulse with something else—an unseen rhythm, a code that only the blood-bound can feel. In the shadow of the city, whispers of old rivalries, political intrigue, and darker creatures lurking within the its labyrinthine underworld hum in the air. Every alley and backstreet is a corridor to power, a path to freedom, or a trap. You were mortal what feels like only yesterday, but tonight you are one of them: immortal, dangerous, and fragile in ways you hadn’t imagined. Your life is over, but your unlife has only just begun. Welcome to the Night. What happens next is up to you. Vampire the Masquerade is a dice pool based game, focused primarily on storytelling. In this game you'll be center stage in the various vampire covens trying to tackle with your newfound thirst for blood and your memories of being human. While this is primarily a sandbox game where you will create and follow your own goals, there will be a set narrative in place to keep the game moving. This is a Play-by-Post game where we'll be playing via discord and the VtM bot. It's completely asynchronous. You can post when you're available and at your convenience the game is always on when you're on! (Try and post 2-3 posts a day) Content Warning: This game will be featuring dark and violent themes.
Game style
Play By Post
Play By Post refers to a game in which players interact with the story through messages and text posts. These games are typically played asynchronously throughout the week, which gives players time to consider what they want to do next, and engage with the story at their own pace.
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Rule of Cool (RoC)
“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.
