About the adventure

💀 None forget their ambitions. Especially the undead of Denver, Colorado. 🍷 The Camarilla were invited guests, but refuse to be subalterns. Memories of the Hecata's hegemony are still fresh, and they will regain their rightful place. 🏰 And yet the city's prosperity continues to blossom, as Elder Vampires secretly ensure lasting peace, and an unseen darkness slowly spreads. 🗡️ Scheme and fight your way to the top! Or build a little corner of the world with safety, secrecy and privacy. Power holds its place in the heart of every Vampire, and you'll be no different. Desires for companionship, peace and quiet, or for wealth and fame are no different once fangs are bared. How will you protect the Unlife you want to build? 🌆 With the town split up, find your loyalties and rivalries among Denver's two Sects. The Clan of Death (Clan Hecata) is founded on family ties between its members, and commands Necromancy like no other. Their rivals, the Secret Society known as the Camarilla trades for profit between its members, and impersonal institutions guarantee order. Both sides face a slow, cold struggle, fought nightly in arguments, skirmishes, and the occasional murder. What place will you take in the crimson merry-go-round? ✨ In Denver, prosperity and conflict are two sides of the same coin. That is by design, though none except the architects of this order know it. Shepherded by the intervention of both sides' Elder Vampires under the guise of ensuring peace, the undead of Denver avoid war and prosper like never before. 🧛 Will you be a pawn for others, or play your own game? Create your vampire, and join the nightly purgatory! 😸 Complete and total beginners welcome!

About me

👋🏿 Hi! How's it going? My name's Ubaldo and I mostly run Vampire the Masquerade (5th ed.) and Blades in the Dark. If you'd like to know more about me, here's what I can tell you: 🚂 Rule of Cool I'm big on always finding a way to let players do what they want with their characters; so long as it makes sense. Mechanical limitations always get in the way, but that's what we have dice for! I don't consider myself a Rule of Cool -style GM, but by the D&D nomenclature I guess I am! In my table, you'll always find a way to translate your intent with your character into goals you can pursue in the world, roleplay interactions you can have, or tactics and maneuvers in combat! 🪩 Players' Creativity Outside of game hours, I make it a habit to be available to chat about any extra writing, ideas or content that my players find interesting and want to put in the game; be it for their own character's story arc or for the adventures the setting will have. You'll find me replying frequently to whatever ideas you have, and content you want to come up with! At my table, you'll have: A. a fun space to talk with me at any hours about your ideas for your character, how to progress their character-arc; B. and a GM who loves to use his players' ideas for the plot and NPCs, but also brings plenty of his own ideas and surprises! 🎉 Good Vibes I've been a pro DM for a year now, operating mostly outside the SPG platform, and in that time I gotta say: the most important thing, by far, has been connecting with people who have good chemistry with me, and who have healthy, fun social habits! At my table, you'll always find a welcoming space, and people willing to adjust our shared social and gameplay dynamics to make sure we all have fun and keep having fun for a long time! 🐭 Me, personally Besides all this, I'm a pretty tranquil guy and I love RPGs! It's been an interesting journey to get started with Pro GM'ing this year, and I look forward to continuing it and bringing you along for the ride! 👍🏿 If you have any other questions for me or just want to get in contact and see what I'm like, hit the link below and that'll bring you to my Interview Discord and you can get in touch with me through there. 👉🏿 I also reply to all my messages here on this platform, but the server in question has only me present and if you'd like to speak in person, that'll get you to me faster! Here's the link, and if you've read so far, hope you're having a good day/evening and blessings upon you! ✨ https://discord.gg/KBWjycknqJ

Character creation

Creating your character

🩸 Build your Vampire's powers and nightly routine! Establish their hobbies and discover their preferences! 🧛 What you need to know about this setting's Vampires In Vampire the Masquerade, there are different "Clans" of Vampires. Each has its own talents in supernatural powers. You can play all 13 of them, and the're built so that all character ideas will fit into one of the clans! Super strength and speed are common, but so are mind-control and emotion-control abilities. Some can become invisible, and others can change form into animals! They also share common weaknesses: fire, sunlight, and lack of blood. There are 13 clans, and if you'd like read about them here! https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Clan_(VTM) ⚙️ Character creation Logistics We will Voice Call 1 on 1, free of charge, and make your character from scratch! For this, I'll fit wherever I can into your schedule, and It should take ~ 70 minutes. Before that: sketch out who your character is and what defines them. Experienced players: if you'd like to prepare your sheet and concept beforehand, the section below has instructions 👍! 📊 Stats for experienced players Stats-wise, we'll use standard character creation for setting Attributes, Skills, and basic Discipline dots (p. 136-7 of the Corebook) We'll diverge from the source when it comes to Vampiric age and Power-level (the "Sea of Time" section in p. 136-7). Instead, we'll set ourselves to: 11th Generation & Blood Potency 1; 7 points of Advantages (Backgrounds & Merits) & 2 points of flaws; 55 points of XP.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

You'll need a Discord account, as well as a free account on Roll20, and we'll pop you into both groups 👍.

What Ubaldo brings to the table

I always prioritize rule of cool, and give players a lot of freedom to plan things out and subvert my plans. My games have heavy roleplay, but when we do fight some enemies, we make it count! Check my GM profile for deeper details!
