About the adventure
It's the height of the Cold War and this (fictional) Caribbean island-nation is a rat's nest of ruthless schemes: the KGB arms communist revolutionaries against the CIA-backed, pro-corporate regime, while the military hungrily eye's the president for signs of weakness--and that's not even counting the vampires, Pentex operatives, Rokea, Black Spirals, and worse who all have their own designs upon it. Your nest is tasked with protecting the local kinfolk while having a great deal of leeway in determining who on the island must be eliminated for the good of Gaia, and your decisions will shape the island's future. We will determine the details and history of the island collaboratively prior to the full start of the campaign.

About me
With 19 years of GMing experience, I run player character-driven games where PC decisions can determine the entire course of campaigns--with ripple effects that sometimes even I can't anticipate (which is when I get most excited.) I specialize in historical games, with deep research into the era and an eye for accuracy. I don't run games on rails. I create settings interwoven with PC backstories and populated by NPC's who each have their own nuanced motivations, perspectives, limited information, and schemes, which are all dynamically influenced by the actions of both the PC's and each other, which can make things delightfully unpredictable as EVERYONE is forced to improvise. I especially love intrigue, horror, and involved roleplaying, but also snappy dialogue, the nitty gritty of tactical maneuvering, and character creation.

How Shepherd creates a safe table
We will establish Lines and Veils during session 0. In general it's the World of Darkness and you'll be playing a breed which tends to solve its problems through murder, so it's likely to get a bit grim.
