It was in cool contrast to the coldest London winter. Winds of change wail through the metropolis, and two high-profile murders pit the city's kindred against each other. Kitchener the Prince, the once stalwart and infallible Ivory pillar lies shattered in a Kindred morgue, a stifled scream. His mysterious final death a bloodless, nondescript full stop on a tale cut short in the middle. Marthe the Harpy, the Tremere powerhouse and Kichener's first lieutenant was similarly unmade without bugles or warchanting just two nights later. Two quiet deaths, for two bright dark stars. Now it's all coming apart. Old, young, smart and stupid leave the domain in droves, driven by Sabaat sabotage, before the Inquisition arrives to restore order. Few opportunists remain, pitted against eachother, scheming, waiting to pounce, while coordinating and consolidating, waiting to survive the Apocalypse and inherit the burnt down country. I don't claim to know what gives men wings, but it sure as hell ain't Angels.

Hi Everyone!

Thanks for reading my thing. I consumed a bunch of noir media and decided to try my hand at VtM. I sadly do not know a lot of lore, but I know enough to be dangerous so I hope that won't be an issue for my future players.

​

Without further ado:

When: Every Sunday at 20:00 CET. That's about noon or 1-2 PM for the peps across the big water. What are we playing: Vampire the Masquerade V5. If you don't own the books it'll be somewhat painful for you to get into, but I'll take you by the hand and carry you through, as my ST did with me.

How long will the sessions last: 2-3h. I'm going to try and do one or two weeks worth of in-world time, just for immersion sake. But I may abandon this idea if I fail to implement it properly or if the players don't get the taste for it.

What's the game about: The Prince and Harpy of London were mysteriously killed in the year 2012. Now the Sabbat have turned up as well, feeding on the anarchy and trying to upturn the masquerade. The Camarilla and Anarchs are dead center in the thick of it, trying to at the same time, hold out until Conclave (Prince Elections), while dealing with the Sabbat, while running London, while working to survive some of the more opportunistic Camarilla looking to fill the hole, and ontop of all that there are Werewolf sightings as close as Devon. A few weeks have passed since the Tragedy, and the Berlin Ivory Tower has extended an olive branch, inviting Kindred Refugees to visit their domain and show subservience. The Coterie, such as it were, will need to decide if they will stick around London through the shit, or apply to the Berlin Domain, and stand to be remembered as "Part of the Ancilae who let London fall in 2012".

How long will the game last: Ideally until Christmas, maybe a bit into 2024. Conservatively I am shooting for 10 sessions, but there is no reason to have a number. Ive made up a story. I'll try and tell it, until there are people listening I would like to continue telling.

Please fill in my survey. I'm a very particular kind of nerd and I hope that my survey helps me identify other particular kinds of nerds. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdeFVvkQNsdoKReoXzjqR2-ndeydZT-I4al-gbolOW7cAJhzw/viewform?usp=sf_link

Thanks!
