I've been wanting to run a VTR campaign for awhile now, so I figured I'd set it up here. We will be using VTR character sheets for character creation, and EXP will be awarded throughout the campaign, but we will not be going to the full extent of the rules. Dice roles will be employed for combat and power-use, but other than that it will be entirely freeform.
Alright! Now that the mechanics are out of the way, here's the juicy details. The game will take place in March, 2000, in New York City. There will be five character slots, one for each Clan, of which two will be newly turned fledgling vampires released into the world, and three will be older vampires arriving in New York as travelers, the reason for this setup being that the newly turned vampires can introduce the others to the city, while the elder Kindred can help introduce the fledglings into Vampire society. As far as political climate I'm still working out the details, but the Covenants are as much at eachothers throats as they usually are, with the Lancea Sanctum and Order of the Crone at odds with eachother. The Invictus are split into two groups, the loyalists who support the current Prince, and a group of Japanese vampires attempting to manipulate things from the shadows. On the other end, the Carthians are split into three major factions, the Reds, who support a form of communism as their new approach to Vampire society, the Sharks, who support a Democratic society, and the Black Jackals, anarchists who believe that so long as they don't break the Masquerade, every Vampire should be equal and able to do what they want. The Ordo Dracul are too focused on their research to care about politics, except when it effects them directly.
Additionally, all five varieties of Belials Brood are represented in New York, having sectioned off the boroughs with the Pandaemonium getting Queens, the Nameless getting Staten Island, the Roaring Serpent taking Manhattan, the Scarlet Rite in Brooklyn, and the Throne of Smokeless Fire taking the Bronx.
If you're interested, please say which Clan you'd like your character to belong to and whether they're a newborn or an adult Vampire!
