The games focus on storytelling, character development, and personal, environmental, and political horror. You play as one such creature, be it a Vampire managing their hunger, a Werewolf containing their rage, a Hunter resisting despair, or even something else entirely should you be so unfortunate. πŸ•―οΈ In RAGE Games "Lightless Path" stories, your character is alone for one reason or another. Perhaps you are new to this world, and seeking a better grasp on your reality. Maybe you have set off from your pack in search of kindred spirits, or forced to do so. Or you have set off towards solitude to discover yourself. This listing has multiple possible uses. Maybe you have a full-length adventure you'd like your character to go on, before after or during a Chronicle. Perhaps as a brief prologue or epilogue session, or origin story. Maybe as a proof-of-concept for testing out a new character concept, or short-story walkthrough for testing out a system you haven't tried before. More Info β€’ Sign up by yourself, or bring a friend β€’ Sessions are 1.5-2 hours long β€’ Stories can be one-shots, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly β€’ Bring your existing RAGE Games character, or try a new one β€’ Characters earn 3 XP per session β€’ Uses Discord voice and Foundry, no video β€’ Scheduling is semi-negotiable, just message and ask!

About me

πŸ‘‹ Hey! I'm Redmane (Red, Rae, Gabriel) β€” 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. 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. Got a question? Want to see what the current party includes? Just message me! This is my full time job, and I have Startplaying open at all times, so I'll be able to get back to you quickly with an answer. Updated 04-15-26
