#RPGaDAY2021 Vampire: The Masquerade

#RPGaDAY2021
Vampire: The Masquerade

Following taking the RPGaDAY2020 prompts to inspire a Buffy series, the next game setting I can riff on that casually is Vampire: The Masquerade and the World Of Darkness in general, as well as Vampire: The Requiem and the Chronicles Of Darkness. Some discussion and adventure hooks to follow.

Looking at the list some lean towards more fantasy and action-y games, but hey.

Expect discussion and plot hooks. Going with this setup:

Last Dance

Zola Jesus, Halloween 2017 at Saint Luke's Glasgow, by me

Three cheers to the mirror now
The two of us
Can we have one last dance?

Anarchs in a modern Camarilla city. Based around a club at the edge of Rack so they have somewhere to meet and to defend.

Vampires and nightclubs go hand in hand, vampires having their own nightclubs has its own TV Tropes page, and Vampire has a history of it from the Succubus Club in the first playtest through the clubs in Bloodlines to the V5 Nordic LARP preview End Of The Line and one of the big interiors in Bloodhunt.

And like Rick’s in Casablanca or the Sheriff’s office in a Western, a known location also gives the Storyteller somewhere that adventure hooks can walk right into.

A club called Nocturne, because why not?

Imagine four PCs, who are all characters I might play if someone else were running this:

Paris, Toreador club promoter
Shane, Brujah student street teamer
Mercy, Caitiff waitress
Jonah, ghoul security
Alice, dhampir teen runaway

Bonus: find me in this picture from Enlightenment In Blood!
