About the adventure

A Vampire: The Masquerade V5 chronicle, set in your city (or city of choice). Story custom-tailored to your coterie, with a full setting and roster of NPCs detailed out for your interaction. The city is your coterie's playground: what will the Prince (or Baron? or Bishop?) assign you? Will you listen? What could possibly go wrong?

About me

2024 CRiT Awards Nominee for Best Indie GM. Willing to traverse between the Dark-and-Discomforting and the Weird-and-Ridiculous? Then let's play a game. Regular GM for D&D 5e, VtM and Hunter v5, Don't Rest Your Head, and Kult: Divinity Lost sessions, but also a major fan of independent games and one-pagers. Been playing games since I was 9, been on a camera doing it since 2020 (ATL By Night, Adjacent By Night, Midnight in the Diner of Good and Evil, and many more). Check out the YouTube link below for examples of my GMing on stream.

Character creation

Creating your character

All characters will be base-level creation stats (childer, neonate, or ancillae, pending discussion with GM), plus 15 additional XP to build. Characters can be created on your own and submitted for approval, or they can be created during a session 0.

The current party

You are Kindred, Anarch or Independent, on the move from town to town. You are stopping in a town tonight to fuel up both your vehicle and your Hunger.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Webcam preferred, microphone necessary. Familiarize yourself with the base rules of Vampire the Masquerade V5 ahead of game, though session 0 can be used for rules clarification (and rules can be explained during gameplay). Pregen characters available upon request, personal character creation highly encouraged. You will need at least a dozen d10s, designating 5 for your Hunger dice. Special VTM dice exist for purchase, or you can designate your d10s normal vs Hunger as you wish. Digital dice rollers are acceptable.
