VtM 5E Birmingham by Night

Game Introduction

Welcome to the World of Darkness. It is a world not unlike our own, seen through a darkened lens. As the unknowing humans sleep, monstrous vampires prowl, werewolves hunt and mages plot. Yet darker things still haunt the shadows. Over the years, the vampires, these master predators have organised themselves in a neo-feudal structure, built on bonds of blood and favour.

In this story, you will be portraying four such vampires, forming a coterie (a tight-knit group of vampires) working at the behest of undead masters to remove threats to the Masquerade.

As vampires, you can sustain damage far beyond what would kill a mortal, and have access to vampiric powers to bend and break those that oppose you. However, daytime is no longer yours, and sunlight burns your flesh. Human food or drink rapidly comes up again, but that pales in comparison with the Hunger; the only thing that sustains you is blood and sooner or later you always want more. Deny that urge and be prepared to face the consequences.

In this particular instance, your characters have been sent to hunt for a killer who might inadvertently draw attention to vampirekind. Sam Stokes, your master, is responsible for keeping a lid on things in your region of the city, and has sent you to meet contact in the local police force for more details.

The hunt for the monster(s) is on.
