Vampire: The Succubus Club - an idea

A possible more thorough hook for an in-person game after more than a year of running games online with purposely basic premises.

Vampires who back, run, or otherwise have strong reasons to hang out at and care about a club. The music venue itself being important, with arranging events and and dealing with keeping it safe and reasonably neutral like Rick’s in Casablanca.

The key would be to make it not just a place for adventures to start, like my recurring idea of a Buffy game about a band where the band and monster hunting kind of get in each other’s way. (The characters could be a band in this too, an idea that goes back to the first edition Vampire: The Masquerade rulebook, since being a band while also being vampires would clash in a frequently plot-producing way, like vampires trying to do just about anything.)

The title is a placeholder from the famous Masquerade club from Chicago By Night, I believe the first of two individual buildings to get its own sourcebook. Could be run with Masquerade or Requiem. Probably V5.

In any case, should be run loud.
