About the adventure
You find yourself on the precipice of chaos, as whispers of an impending Second Inquisition assault ripple through the undead underbelly of the city. The Kindred are on high alert, but fear courses through your veins like never before—there’s a list circulating, a list of unknown informants, traitors among you who have betrayed their own kind. Each name on that list is a ticking time bomb, and no one knows who’s next to fall. The situation worsens with the mysterious disappearance of Khalid, the leader of Clan Nosferatu, whose absence has left a gaping void in the city's information network. Trust erodes, alliances fray, and paranoia takes root as you navigate a web of deceit, trying to uncover the infiltrators before the Inquisition closes in. Your survival hinges on secrecy, cunning, and the ever-dwindling loyalty of your fellow Kindred.

Additional Details
How to prepare
This game takes place online, so players will need an internet connection, a Discord account, and a free Roll20 account. Players will also need a mic; webcams are recommended, but not required. Players are encouraged to familiarize themselves with VtM Clans and the character creation process prior to Session 0.
What I provide
I run fast-paced games that lean into the horror elements of Vampire the Masquerade. My VtM campaigns take place within a shared universe, so the actions of one coterie can have a far-reaching impact on the universe itself.
Gameplay details
Lines and Veils will be established during Session 0 and recorded in a document on the VTT. Players that join after Session 0 will have an opportunity to contribute to the list during onboarding. Digital safety cards are also enabled on the VTT, so players will always be able to stop uncomfortable scenes.

How will character creation work
Players will decide on character concepts together during Session 0, with the assistance of the Storyteller. Collectively, players will also choose a coterie concept. Players joining after Session 0 will create their characters independently, using the Character Creation Summary in the core book and with the assistance of the ST. Sect will be determined during Session 0.
