[QUOTE="KirayaTiDrekan, post: 6398205, member: 6755061"] [B]Recruiting has closed. Thanks for looking.[/B][I][B] October 31st, 1999[/B] You went to the office Halloween party in a cheesy costume you threw together last minute. You didn't like most of these people at work but the boss was keen on these ridiculous social gatherings and you're up for a promotion. Besides, the new gal on the nightshift was intriguing and maybe now you'd finally get a chance to talk to her. [/I][I][COLOR=#b22222][B][FONT=century gothic]You belong to me now. [/FONT][/B][/COLOR] "Trick or Treat!" It just wasn't like it was when you were a kid, but, it was still fun to get your 10 year old and 7 year old into costume and go around the neighborhood. "Just one more house?" The 7 year old begged and pleaded. Of course, it would have to be the spooky house at the end of the street. Its Halloween, why the hell not? [COLOR=#b22222][B][FONT=century gothic]What's this? You brought me a snack? How delightful. [/FONT][/B] [/COLOR]The music thumped so loudly it forced your heart to adjust its beat to match its own. The club was full of wild and revealing outfits. You were more than a little tipsy, but you didn't care. This was where you felt alive. You weren't looking to hook-up tonight, but you weren't going to say no if the opportunity arose, either. Speaking of which, who is this handsome fellow asking you to dance? [COLOR=#b22222][B][FONT=century gothic]I'll show you a darkness you haven't dreamed of.[/FONT][/B] [/COLOR] Halloween night. The night you die...and live forever. [/I]The classic World of Darkness ended after 13 years with Gehenna/Apocalypse/Ascension. I thought it would be fun to explore the entire run by wrapping the 13 year cycle around the two most notorious end-of-the-world dates in recent memory. 2000 to 2012. As such, we will be playing through every official modern World of Darkness game and story in the order they were originally released (roughly...I only have the year of each release so I'll be arranging each year's setting and story material in an order that makes the most logical sense for our mega-chronicle). I am also inserting my own bridging stories here and there to help fill in any gaps and to give the chronicle a certain feel. This prelude, for example, will introduce the primary Camarilla vampire characters as they go through their embrace. We will be using the 20th Anniversary Edition of Vampire: The Masquerade for this prelude. The setting is Chicago, October 31st, 1999. There are a few limitations, however. Camarilla clans only. Specifically - Brujah, Gangrel, Malkavian, Nosferatu, Toreador, Tremere, and Ventrue. The Black Hand Membership and Rituals backgrounds are not available. Disciplines from sabbat, independent clans, and minor bloodlines are not available, even with freebie points. (But, may be learned later on if the story lends itself to such knowledge.) Malkavian characters have the Dominate discipline instead of Dementation. All characters will be have Humanity, rather than a Path, at least to start. Merits and flaws are available on a case by case basis. Finally, if this is all Greek to you, but you still like the idea of playing a vampire, no problem. Part of the purpose of a Prelude is to acquaint the player with both their character and the game itself. For those who need a guide, just express your interest here and I'll walk you through character creation as we play through the Prelude. [I]Halloween Night For this one night, Lodin, Prince of Chicago, was lifting the ban on the creation of new Kindred...provisionally. Only those who had pleased him and were willing to owe him a boon were allowed to embrace this night. Not many took him up on the offer. But some did. [COLOR=#b22222][FONT=century gothic][B]There are monsters out tonight. Soon, you will be one of them. [/B][/FONT][/COLOR][/I] [/QUOTE]
