About the adventure
Three ambitious Kindred — Adze, Bronwyn, and Bret Stryker — circle the event, each angling for the vacant Keeper seat. As the coterie plans the event, the political knives come out, forcing them to manage competing interests and emerge unscathed. Or, in other words, just another night in the Windy City. Prince Jackson of Chicago wants to fill his vacant Keeper of Elysium position (or so the rumors say). Adze, Bronwyn, and Bret Stryker each had expected the title and the honor of hosting the city’s New Year’s Eve party when Jackson upends expectations by handing the festivities to a traveling Carnival coterie, granting them temporary access to any Chicago Elysium. Adze, Bronwyn, and Bret Stryker aren’t taking the slight well and suspect more is at play. It wouldn’t be the first time a Prince tested the candidates before appointing a court officer. Now the players’ characters must plan the event while contending with bruised egos and a three-way cold war of wills.
