9c: Vampire: The Masquerade with Elegy
Elegy by Miracle M. is a rules-light solo RPG with group options based on Ironsworn and featuring its random table oracle system, for modern monsters inspired by Vampire: The Requiem and Masquerade.
It features a worldbuilding section suggesting different vampire origins and societies, an example city with districts and neighbourhoods, and the oracle system provides random tables for plot drivers and complications, clues, mood touches and character traits and more.
It’s available Pay What You Want and worth picking up for anyone running a horror or urban fantasy RPG.
