About the adventure

"World of Darkness" games take place in a modern day world much like our own, where several different creatures of myth, legend, and folklore roam unseen for one reason or another. Vampires search for their prey, werewolves stalk the woods, Hunters pursue their quarry, and even stranger things hide amongst even them. And you're one of them. This listing is designed to prepare you for any such adventures via one-on-one character creation assistance. This can be in voice call at a custom scheduled time, or as direct messaging.

About me

👋 Hey! I'm Redmane (Red, Rae, Gabriel) — a professional World of Darkness Storyteller from the East Coast USA, now in Oklahoma. I've been fascinated by vampires, werewolves, and things that go bump in the night since childhood, which led me to studying WoD lore and collecting sourcebooks long before I ever ran a game online. My storytelling background stretches back eight years across play-by-post, MMO server events, LARP, and acting troupes before moving into online tabletop in 2021. What started as "I can't find a good WoD game, so I'll run one" turned into a full-time passion. 🦎 Outside the game, I'm an iguana dad, a herpetology and cryptozoology enthusiast, a costumer, a folklore nerd, and proudly Irish-American. 💸 What You're Paying For Session fees go directly into maintaining the quality of your experience: Foundry VTT licensing, custom battle maps, licensed music and ambiance packs, professional Discord management, rulebook and supplement purchases, and reliable high-speed internet. Compared to other VTM V5 weekly games on StartPlaying — most running $20–$35/session — RAGE Games chronicles are priced at the lower end of that range despite offering full Foundry VTT production with custom visual and audio assets built specifically for each session. Prices will increase gradually as experience, catalog, and production quality continue to grow. 📬 My DMs are always open. Questions, concerns, or just want to talk werewolf mythology? Don't be a stranger. Updated 04-15-26

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters follow the same character creation as normal World of Darkness games. This can be done in PDF or Foundry file format, with the following bonuses compared to doing it yourself; 🧙 Welcome to SPG! Test out how signing up works, get insights on how to look for the games you're looking for, and get early tips and tricks for what other WoD Storytellers might tweak or suggest in their own homebrew, houserules, and how often certain systems are used. 👤 Simple Character Creation Take advantage of infographics, guides, and tips for character creation, and choose between the simple and direct approach or far more involved detail. Everything is done step by step, 💎 Trait Details Get access to full details for every WoD5 power, advantage, or system you need to fully understand the character and how best to use them. This means access to extended system rules only available in $60+ rulebooks, as well as professional explanation of what that means. 🔺 Progression Get ideas and plans for leveling your character through play, such as the best powers to get next, what Advantages may be the most useful, and how to spend XP.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

For this adventure, all you'll need is a character idea of some kind and Discord for communication. A Forge VTT account is also free and optional. Nothing else is required.

What Redmane (RAGE Games) brings to the table

RAGE Games provides everything you need for your World of Darkness story. We reference WoD 5th Edition content, and all necessary information will be provided. Startplaying is used for organization, Discord is used for communication, and Foundry (or alternatives) is used for character sheets.

Homebrew rules

For this, we'll be using rules-as-written as much as possible. I'll inform you of my possible houserules as they come up, as well as those other storytellers might have.
