[M] New Era Of Darkness OOC

[Sketch]

[M] Rating for blood, violence, swearing, sexual scenes/suggestions, drugs, adult humor...and the like. no new CS's are being accepted, except for the three I told otherwise.

Gehenna, No one ever thought it would happen this way. Our apocalypse, the end of vampires, it never was thought to come to pass. But it did.

The year is 20XX, the world…ours and theirs ended, the apocalypse, Armageddon, Gehenna…The world was ravaged and no one knows why. Dark gases where released into the sky, blocking the harmful rays of the sun from our kind, we walk in the day without harm now. Vampires and humans struggle to get by in most of the world. The masquerade is over, Human’s know we exist; some blame us for their world coming to an end, some hunt us down. The few Vampires that survived must find a new way of life…some may cling to their old ideals; some know the time for change is here. Some just want to survive, and live the normal life, and some want to know why this came to pass and what our future holds for us.

“If you’re hearing this radio message good…I need some help down in Denver Colorado…Yeah I know it’s a hard trip from some of our kind but I promise it’ll be worth it. What your bloodline is doesn’t matter, nor what Clan you’re from…I don’t honestly care. I’m in the Bleeding Palm Inn…Join me if you want. I want to make this new age a good one…for all of us.”

………………………………

“This is really A New Era of Darkness.”

Okay this is my first real role-play I’ve hosted in a long time. This RP has basis in the tabletop game Vampires: the Masquerade if you know it, well that’s good, if not it’s really fun. Soooooooooo much thanks goes to Setsa for helping me pull this off~

Some clarifying information…
Frenzying is when a vampire basically goes berserk and almost beast like, this is important because some Clan’s curses revolve around Frenzying. I will also be doing all the rolls necessary. And diablerie takes place when a vampire drinks not only all the blood of another vampire but also their soul.

Spoiler: The Modern Western World 

The modern world isn’t kind to us, mostly…I don’t know much about the world outside the western one… (Pictures in progess.)
Chicago: or what’s left of it, Belongs to a Lasombra known as his title, The Chicago Prince. Human’s and vampires flock there due to his promises of the better life. He rules over the place with an almost feudalistic fashion.

Spoiler: The Chicago Prince 

New York City: now called the Pit, The Tzimisce’s Cathedral of Flesh is the center of the city ever since it moved above ground.

Texas: The Snake Clan has taken ownership of most of Texas, calling it the New Desert; most humans never make it out of there. Cryo runs the place like its ancient Egypt.

Spoiler: Cryo 

LA, California:…Those bloody Assassins…the Assamite, exterminated most of the population there, they run their contract killing organization for blood out of there, the operator out there’s called the Bloody Shade.

Spoiler: The Bloody Shade 

San Diego: the home of the Tremere, the blasted blood mages and their hierarchy are in league with the damn Assamite…or so people say, The Bleeding One is the last Councilor alive and she runs the joint.

Spoiler: The Bleeding One 

New Orleans: The remainder of the Giovanni Clan resides here. The dead walk the streets as much as the living does.

Washington state: all of Washington is a jungle now; the perfect home for the Gangrel that runs the place under the name, The Wolf Baron. People think they live with Werewolves…

Spoiler: The Wolf Baron 

Boston: A Nosferatu owns Boston and is quickly expanding through all of Massachusetts, She calls herself the Baroness. She tramples any who oppose her, and runs the area through intimidation and fear.

Spoiler: The Baronness 

Washington D.C.:Home to both the Ventrue and the Ravnos, it’s Politicians VS Criminals down there now. A human called the Enforcer makes his name there.

Giovanni https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giovann...d_of_Darkness)
Ravnos https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravnos

Spoiler: Clan restriction for the Clan’s they apply too. 

Ravnos: Each Ravnos has a specific vice ranging from plagiarism to mass murder. When the opportunity to indulge that vice is present, Ravnos must succeed in a self-control check to avoid indulging it.
Malkavian: Every last vampire of Malkav's blood is irredeemably insane in some form or another. Some attribute this to a curse of the blood, while other Lunatics actually call it a special blessing, a gift of insight.
When a Malkavian character is created, the player must choose at least one derangement for that character at the time of the Embrace; this derangement can be temporarily fought with Willpower, but can never be permanently overcome. They are also pranksters, with their "jokes" ranging from benign to sadistic
Ventrue: They have exacting and rarefied tastes, even when it comes to blood. The player must pick a restriction on the type of blood their character can feed upon, e.g. only young men, no animals, etc. A Ventrue will feed on no other type of blood, not even if (s)he is starving or under duress.

Spoiler: Weaknessess for remaining Clans 

Brujah are more easily frenzied
Nosferatu are absolutely loathsome to look at
Toreador: Although lovely and seductive, the members of this clan are as much prisoners of their artistic vision and sensitivity as they are its beneficiaries. They are often overcome by the beauty they see around them, and become immobilized with fascination. Such things as paintings, neon signs, or even sunrises can captivate them.
Lasombra vampires cast no reflections. They cannot be seen in mirrors, bodies of water, reflective windows, polished metals, photographs and security cameras, etc. This curious anomaly even extends to the clothes they wear and objects they carry.
Tzimisce: Whenever a Tzimisce sleeps, they must surround themselves with at least two handfuls of Earth from a place important to them as a mortal.
Assamites grow darker with age. They suffer from an addiction to vampire vitae and an aura stained by diablerie. Even if they have never actually engaged in diablerie, their aura shows their blood lust clearly.
Followers of Set are weaker in bright lights (spotlights, strobes, etc.).
Gangrel are very close to the Beast within; as they succumb to it, it leaves its mark on their bodies. Every time a Gangrel frenzies, they gain an animalistic feature.
Giovanni: When a Giovanni bites a living being, they deal more damage than normal making it difficult to keep people alive after feeding from them.

Spoiler: My character 

Name First (Nickname) Surname: Alexandrea (Alex) Giovanni
Gender: Female
Clan: Giovanni
Restriction: N/A

Age: at least 50
Apparent Age: 18
Description (Picture optional):

Spoiler: Alex Giovanni 

Date of death: The day of Gehenna
Weapon(Keep it small): a set of leather bound silver knives belted around her waist
History: Alex was born into the Giovanni family, she officially died when Gehenna happened, but because she was born embraced her life as a Vampire started that day. After she died and started living the real life of a vampire, she’s been living more like the Woman she was born as, a Giovanni, loyal only to herself, her family and her bloodline. Being a necromancer and all was fun in the first few years after Gehenna happened, but she grew bored of the New Orleans life and with two friends/sisters, she moved out of the city and went exploring, she ended up in New York City and was almost sacrificed to the Cathedral of Flesh, her friends/sisters where not so lucky. After that she saw that her life wasn’t the way she was brought up to believe it was. Now she lives to find a way to make peace between a new generation and the new age of Vampires.

Miniken Katana would be fine, Wow a direct descendant of the Lasombra Clan, this will be interesting.
Other than that Approved ~ Looking forwards to seeing you RP~

[Fayn]

Thanks! You too. Even though we both have been RPing in the same RPs lately. :P Glade you made this though because vampires are awesome and so is Vampires: the Masquerade.

[Sarnith]

Actually I /just/ transitioned Larissa from OWoD (Old World of Darkness) into an RP on here - Would you mind if I rolled her back in under your rules for this RP as well?

[Sketch]

O...M...G
You play Old World of darkness?!
Post a CS and most likely It'll work!

Well Larissas sabbat game ended at Gehenna so this transition is perfect for her. When I get time I'll post her entire cs and let you make alterations as needed

Yeah, I considered starting an owod game on here if there's enough interest. Well see though!

[AlikaKamashi]

I cant decide between the Lasombra

[Sketch]

It's more detail required for the actual character sheet for the game.
