About the adventure
โซโซโซโซโซโซ โฑ ๐๐ ๐ฃ๐๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ป๐๐ฃ๐๐๐๐ค๐ค โฑ โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ The world of darkness is a world that seems much like our real one, but with monsters lurking in the shadows. Vampires, werewolves, ghosts, and much worse things exist just out of sight of the mortals. Very few humans have any hints of the truth. (Note: If you have read world of Darkness official lore, understand that while I've read a lot of WoD lore and have run lots of WoD games, I, the GM, don't know every single thing, and I'm also willing to change things, so just know that this isn't "The World of Darkness"; it's "Our World of Darkness.") Not long ago you were once one such human living your normal life; then one fateful night you died at the fangs of an undead monster and rose again. Embraced into this world of darkness. Now you too have been cursed to walk for endless nights with a never-ending thirst for the blood of man. Doomed to either burn in the sun's light; be slain by human hunters or your fellow kindred; or worse, live for ages untold as your humanity slowly slips away. โซโซโซโซโซโซ โพ ๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ฃ๐ช ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐จ๐ค โพ โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ In this game players navigate political intrigue, personal horror, and dark moral dilemmas. You are neither hero nor villain; instead, you are both the monster and the victim. The players will both play the spider spinning its own plots and schemes of lies and manipulations and the fly caught in the web of the machinations of greater monsters. The players will both play the wolf among sheep as they hunt helpless mortals. And also be hunted sometimes by an even foe in a fair duel to the death. But sometimes you will have to be the helpless sheep running and hiding from a real wolf. โซโซโซโซโซโซ ๐ฉธ ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฒ๐๐๐ ๐ฉธ โซโซโซโซโซโซโซ Warning: This is a very dark game full of death and blood and worse things; it's a whole world of darkness. Also, while player characters can be 'evil,' this game is best when the characters are more morally gray with both light and dark in them. Vampires are meant to start out human and slowly struggle as they lose more and more humanity over time. Not just start out as soulless killers. And while characters can be very flawed, I don't want any players at my table who don't respect all races, sexes, genders, and faiths (or lack thereof) and just respect all people. If you are new to WoD, don't worry; I can teach you the basics, and I have some optional home rules that can make some of the more complex parts of the game a bit simpler. โซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซโซ

About me
I have been GMing for over 15 years, sometimes with custom-made names, often with one of the game systems listed on my profile. I love a game where the natural consequences of a player's actions bounce off the natural actions and reactions of the NPCs and mix with some random chance of the dice to twist and turn the story in ways neither the players nor the GM could have seen coming! I love creating worlds for the players that feel living and changing, that have NPCs that act realistically and with agency so it never feels like the player is in a cardboard castle talking to King Quest Giver I love having and trusting a caring gaming group that have respect for each other's needs and boundaries. I will not tolerate intolerance of any race, creed, gender, sexuality, disability, faith (or lack thereof), nationality, or anything else like that!

Creating your character
After session 0 I will guide each player through character creation step by step. And if after sessions pass a player feels they regret any choices they made in character creation, I'd be happy to let them undo it. I'm also happy to bend the rules a little in order to help players. get the idea they want as long as it's not to broken or out of theme.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Voice chat: Players will need to be able to use Discord voice chat, and while they do not need to know everything about Discord, they should understand how to enter and exit chat, how to mute/unmute, etc. Roll20: Players will need to have and be able to use Roll20. It's ok if one does not know everything about Roll20, but I am looking for players who at least know how to use the dice and tokens in Roll20.
What DireDM brings to the table
๐ I have Lots of World of Darkness rule books and lore ๐ ๐ต Music to suit the mood ๐ต ๐จ Art both for the game and I can help you find art for your character and make a token for you if you want. ๐จ
Homebrew rules
I have a few optional home rules to make some of the more complex stuff like combat, quicker, and I'm willing to make new ones to suit the game.

How DireDM creates a safe table
The player may choose to either PM me in Discord or talk to me out loud if and whenever they have an issue in the game, and they are also free to leave the Discord call at any moment if they need to, and then we can talk about why later.
