Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Sounds Like Hell
Buffy The Vampire Slayer using the official RPG rules, with a new cast of characters in modern-day smallish-town and probably campus-based adventures.
Knowledge of the setting and shows and game is useful but not necessary. The system is pretty straightforward. The setting is an urban fantasy Earth with magic and monsters existing in secret, and a mix of action, generally-mild horror, drama and comedy.
Possible specific setup: The characters are a band and one or more of them is mixed up in supernatural trouble.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Red Right Hand
Vampire: The Masquerade is a storytelling game of personal horror, playing as people drawn into a society of monsters hunting in the shadows of a world that looks like our own. Knowledge of the setting and system is not required, the setting looks like our world on the surface and the system is straightforward.
Your characters are new to the night in a city where the reigning elder vampire has vanished, leaving the Damned fighting amongst themselves. The oldest cling to their power, the youngest fight for their own survival, and few care about their souls. Will your characters choose a side, find their own path, or die trying - again?
Expect personal connections to humanity complicating existence as a vampire, some violence though not much action, and a backdrop of dark alleys, nightclubs, galleries and graveyards.

I am already having second thoughts about the V5 title and trying the Buffy band setup again, but it’s just a few weeks... assuming summer still exists as a concept. This is May and still feels like winter.
