VtM: City of Fog

"My Lords, Ladies, and distinguished guests, Welcome back to London. Look around you tonight. We stand at the literal crossroads of the world. From the halls of Westminster to the furthest corners of Her Majesty’s Empire, the threads of history are spun right here, in the heart of Mayfair. It is our shared privilege—and our solemn duty—to guide those threads with absolute discipline, discretion, and grace. The London Season is not merely a calendar of amusement. It is a testament to Order. It is a reminder that society only thrives when everyone knows their place, respects the boundaries of tradition, and bows to the established architecture of power. To our lovely debutantes making their entrance tonight: remember that a single misstep, a single breach of decorum, can dismantle a legacy. Treasure your dance cards, but guard your reputations with your lives.” She pauses, her gaze lingering just a fraction of a second longer on the corners of the room where the Kindred aristocrats stand, her voice dropping into a colder, melodic cadence. “To our oldest friends, and to the travelers who have crossed oceans to seek our hospitality... London welcomes you. But do not mistake our hospitality for softness. The peace and prosperity of this great capital are absolute. They are protected by a shadow longer and more ancient than the Crown itself. Enjoy the fruits of our realm, but remember under whose roof you stand, and whose eternal law governs these streets. Let the music begin. The Season is open." And just as Lady Anne welcomed everyone at the first ball of the season, that being April in the Year of Our Lord 1885.   I would like to welcome you all to the World of Darkness. Some of you are veterans of the setting, some of you might be new. I have no problems there. That is to say, this ad is mainly to find those interested in exploring the murky “waters” of river Thames that slowly flows through the city itself.  London is and always will be a global metropolis. And during the rule of Mithras, Methuselah of clan Ventrue, who had a rather tight grasp on the whole city, it is even more so. While he agreed to the Camarilla and its depiction of Masquerade, his own cult, that is the ruling body of all kindred in the city, is not tied to it. So it is not uncommon to find some Ravnos, Assamites, even the Lasombra Antitribu present. As long as you act properly and do not cause trouble, you are welcomed. If you are a troublemaker, best is if your troubles are directed at the enemies of the cult then. But be as it is. I am looking for 3 to 5 players that are interested in Victorian Era London. Intrigues, dangers and opportunity are in equal measure provided here.  I already mentioned it, but I am also very much fine with new players. As long as those players are willing to go that little extra mile to learn and enjoy the setting. Game edition will be VtM 20th Anniversary Edition with Victorian Era: Vampire addons. For time and day of the game: It will be weekly, every Thursday at 20:00 CET(Central European Time) . Length is about 3 to 4 hours(Usually 4, depends on the session itself). If you have anymore questions. Please ask them here. If you want to participate in the dance, also reply here, I will send you pm back as soon as possible. This is also not a First come first play basis, I will conduct interviews with all players to ensure we can all work together. So for one last time: Welcome to London. May your nights be everlasting.
This seems incredibly cool! Thank you for recommending me to check this post out. I'm definitely interested, and would love to discuss possibly being a player in this! I'd love to learn more about the setting, and your expectations for your players. As you are probably already aware from my forum post, I am incredibly new to VtM but I'm certainly wanting to learn and be involved! :)
Hi Interested in putting my name forth for the game. Have experience with VTM over the years, haven't managed to play in a game in a while though.
I would love to get in on this!  Thank you for your reply to my pos inviting me.  :) If you need anything from me, please let me know.
Hi there, that's a great scene setting intro! I'd be very interested! I've loads of general RPG experience and also played a few WW games over the years, a Dark Ages Vampire campaign many years ago, a Ghoul only campaign (with the interesting twist that we were playing ourselves whose sire was killed the day we were turned!), and a modern day X Files style campaign (without any vampires). I've never played a game where the vampire politics has been a strong feature though and I'm a beginner in that regard, so I recognise the various clan names you mentioned in your intro but I'm not aware of their significance (and I only know 'Mithras' from the actual Roman cult). So a beginner friendly game in that regard would be a great introduction. I'm based in the UK so thats a perfect timeslot for me as well. Happy to chat when you're free. cheers Martin
I am a bit new to the game, but i have read some of the various books. Experimented with V20 Dark Ages. I would greatly enjoy a chance to play. The time is not a problem.
