About the adventure
Phoenix, Arizona—2025. A glittering jewel of the Camarilla and one of the most heavily populated Kindred domains in the American Southwest. Seven million mortals walk beneath its neon haze… and threaded among them lurk hundreds of vampires, each hungry for influence, blood, and a piece of the city’s future. But everything changed when the beloved Prince vanished into the Beckoning. She named no heir. Now the throne of Phoenix sits empty, and the city seethes with whispered conspiracies. Primogen maneuver in the shadows, ancillae sharpen their ambitions, and neonates disappear—victims of political “misunderstandings.” Praxis is no longer a right… it’s a prize. And your coterie? You’ve found yourselves in the orbit of a Primogen poised to seize it all. If you can survive. If you can prove your worth. If the other predators don’t smell the blood on the wind first. Power is up for grabs. Loyalties will be tested. And the desert sun isn’t the only thing that burns. Welcome to Phoenix. Welcome to the Camarilla. ---- Vampire: The Masquerade 5th edition is a complex and immersive tabletop role-playing game set in a dark and secretive world of vampires. As an expert in the game, I have extensive knowledge of its rules, mechanics, and lore. I can guide players through character creation, helping them choose their clan, attributes, abilities, and disciplines, ensuring a balanced and engaging gameplay experience. As a storyteller, I can offer compelling narratives and intriguing plotlines within the vampire society.
