New Orleans by Night: Bon Temps and Blood

About the adventure

This is the modern Big Easy. A city constantly inundated with outsiders, barely grappling with its own economic and cultural issues. A city diverse in race and culture, guided by Kindred of even more obscure origins. In this World of Darkness, New Orleans has been seized by Clan Hecata’s oldest still-active methuselah, Baron Samedi himself, the leader of the zombie-like Samedi bloodline who is long considered to be one of the Voodoo lwa (gods). Baron Samedi works with the Anarch Ministry to turn this once-great jewel of the American Camarilla into the capital of his clan in the wake of the fall of Venice as the heart of the clan of Death. Thus New Orleans has become for vampires what it has long been for mortals. A place for misfits and countercultural antiheroes. A place where nightlife thrives. A place where the dead walk among us. (Above text taken from New Orleans by Night by Kelly Black, for sale in the Storyteller's Vault) New Orleans today is ruled by Baron Samedi and his Setite bride as they guide the spiritual life for the kindred and kine of the city. The city's history is full of sex, death, debauchery, and magic, making it the perfect place for the Hecata to claim as their new capital city. The Big Easy was formerly a Camarilla city, but after Hurricane Katrina, COVID-19, and the Second Inquisition, the Camarilla has a much smaller presence while the Hecata and Anarchs make up most of the undead population. Within the city are representatives of the major factions of vampire society as well as werewolves, mages, and other strange folk who coexist in a mutual if not altogether comfortable cease fire agreement. This game will be a sandbox game. players create characters with goals and ambitions and work within the game to accomplish them. Remember, with freedom comes consequences and the city will respond to threats to her or her own.
