Creating your character
I will provide all the things required for the game, you will be starting out as regular neonates as a build, but experience may increase from there.
Start off as Camarilla, but the sky is the limit from there.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
All you will need is Discord and I will provide the rest.
What Storyteller Steve (Vancouver by Night) brings to the table
Everything will be theatre of the mind but you will be immersed into a dark underbelly of kindred politics from the start of the game. I generally go rules as written, but I will absolutely go rule of cool if the situation is narratively appropriate.
Homebrew rules
Rules as written at the start, but there will be instances of rule of cool depending on the situation
