About the adventure
WEREWOLF: THE APOCALYPSE — RED MOON RISING A crimson moon rises over Gemini Springs. As corporate toxins choke the sacred waters, will your pack hunt the Wyrm or bleed out in the pine? The Setting: Sanford in Nightfall Welcome to Central Florida, a sun-drenched tourist paradise by day, and a jagged, blood-soaked battleground by night. This chronicle maps out a high-stakes guerrilla war along the I-4 corridor. While the city leeches and corporate drones choke the concrete grid, the native heart of Florida fights back from the shadows. Your home is Gemini Springs, a sacred, ancient oasis under siege by urban sprawl. From this primeval bastion, your pack must strike out into a dark, swampy frontier where the lines between nature, concrete, and spiritual corruption blur. This game focuses on intense pack dynamics, high-stakes tactical strikes, and deeply atmospheric environmental storytelling. What to Expect: A brutal, fast-paced sandbox where your pack must balance the frantic rage of the Apocalypse with the survival instincts of a stealth guerrilla unit. The Shared World Twist: This chronicle runs parallel to a sister Vampire: The Masquerade game (Neon Bleed). A tremor in one game causes an earthquake in the other. Cutting off a corporate funding front in the city might drop the security grid at a Pentex depot, directly shaping the battlefield for your pack. The Experience: Over 10 years of storytelling experience brings the Umbra and the physical wilds to life. Expect curated tribal music, immersive sensory descriptions, and distinctive character voices to pull you entirely into the hunt. The spirits have spoken. The moon is high. Let the blood run in the basin. **This game uses AI Art for some background imagery.

About me
Welcome to the Game! I'm Joe, a highly experienced GM who has been involved in TTRPG campaigns for over three decades. For me, the ultimate goal is simple: to create a good story together. What to Expect at My Table: *Deep Immersion: Get ready to be pulled in! I use unique voices and accents for every NPC, professional music, and evocative sound effects to make every scene feel real. *A Living, Breathing World: My favorite part of GMing is staying nimble. I can pivot on a dime and the world will bend and shift based on your choices. This is your story, and your actions matter. *Campaign Veteran: I have a proven track record, currently running two successful live campaigns that are over a year and a half long. Whether it's a deep dive into D&D or the dark intrigue of World of Darkness, you're joining a veteran GM who knows how to keep a long campaign thriving. *Quality VTT Experience: I use a great VTT platform and detailed visualization tools to ensure the combat and exploration are clear, tactical, and visually stunning. Don't see a system you love? Just ask! With access to hundreds of different TTRPG books, I'm happy to learn and run a new system quickly. Let's start building our epic story!

Creating your character
Character creation will be done between session 0 and session 1. I try to do individual session 0.5's for each player to help them each with character creation and backstory tie in. Each character will start as a Rank 1 Garou, with basic character creation rules. There are numerous websites that can help one create a character, but I also possess any needed book both physical and PDF, along with PDF Character Sheets.
