Coterie in need of a Storyteller!

Hello all, myself and three friends are looking to join a game of VtM together. We are most familiar with 5e, but would be willing to try out other editions. Aside from this, we all have plenty of experience with other TTRPGs, so there shouldn't be any issues as far as gaming etiquette goes. Our first Chronicle went unfinished and we would all like to see the characters we created be developed. So long as there cores remain the same, we can make the necessary changes to them so that they will fit in a different Storyteller's Chronicle.

check my current game. It is set in a huge city characters can be fighters, wizards, thieves or bards. Think Fahferd & the Gray Mouser or Thieves world. It is set up as a Westmarches style game with each session being complete and it is run with whichever players show up. Using a rumor/contacts system each character will have information. Game will run Thursdays & Fridays at 8 PM EDT.  I have extensive experience as a DM dating back to Chainmail. The Thief's Tale An example of my game mastering a scifi game: Stars Without Number (Space/Sci-Fi) One Shot! "...-" - YouTube I also write books: Link DM me here and I will arrange a time to talk with you.

Hmm. I've not ran V5 and honestly only read through the core book once a few years ago, but I have had an idea for a current day campaign set in Vancouver that mostly aligns with the current metaplot. Before I get to any of that though, may I ask what sort of chronicle you are looking for (starting 'power level', expected rate of advancement, action/roleplay balance) and what characters you have in mind? (mainly clan and affiliation) Oh, also did you all have a day and time in mind? (I'm located in the Central US time zone, but have a rather flexible schedule)

Sorry I didn't mention before! We are available on Thursdays. Two of us are in CST time zone, and the other two are in EST time zone.

(I'm located in the Central US time zone, but have a rather flexible schedule) We are looking for a story/character/intrigue driven Chronicle. Plenty of drama and intrigue. Fights are fun and good, but its not the main focus. If mixed-generation coteries are allowed, that would be pretty cool. Our group consists of a Ventrue (Camarilla), a Toreador (Camarilla), a Nosferatu (Unaffiliated), and a Brujah (Unaffiliated). We are open to making changes if necessary. We are available on Thursday nights (around 7:00 pm CST).  

Ah. The setup I had in mind would involve Neonates aligned (by virtue of their sires most likely) with the Camarilla but not yet fully fledged members. The beginning would focus on meeting the city’s Primogen and performing a task for the Prince. The Brujah PC would effectively be Antitribu and draw even more ire from the local Anarchs. (Not an issue from a storytelling perspective, just something anyone playing a non-Cammy clan should be aware of) It is geared more towards learning the ins and outs of vampire society and politics from the bottom rungs as opposed to being established already. Not sure if that is what your group is looking for.

Is that okay with you?

That sounds good. Send me a PM when you get the chance. I can go into a bit more detail on the setting and make sure everyone is ok with it. Might not be able to respond until tomorrow or much later this evening, cooking out with family.

I will try again tomorrow.
