[LFP] [nWoD] Dark, Gritty Game. Mortals/Hunters

Edited 1531160332
The Unseen Threat is a World of Darkness campaign where the players will begin as normal everday people in the fictional city of Old Haven Vermont. Per the above teaser, paranormal occurances are on a rise in the city and the premise of the campaign is players founding a sort of impromptu hunter cell, to investigate and deal with the various threats as they present themselves.&nbsp; There will be a heavy emphasis on working together and the combat when it occurs will be short, brutal and utterly unforgiving. I'm not the type of storyteller to pride myself on killing players, however I'm not going to go out of my way to alter rolls or provide convenient means of escape. Actions have consequences. The game will be played bi-weekly using Roll20 for the interface and Discord for voice. Currently only accepting players that are 21 or older who can consistently come to our Friday evening games. Q. What are you looking for in terms of characters?A. I'm looking for realistic people. So not former special forces snipers, CIA counter insurgency operatives, all knowing paranormal investigators, or eccentric billionaires.&nbsp; Players are to be starting off as Mortals with no or limited knowledge of occult/the supernatural. (The occult skill still obviouly exists but think of this more as historical accounts and mythology etc.) I'd prefer to avoid anyone having a character who knows all about the supernatural and can readily identify threats and weaknesses. (The whole feeling and atmosphere that I'm going for with this game is the slow and steady descent into the darkness.)

*Note* -I've gotten a few PMs about the nature of the game, so allow me to try and lay it out here. 1. Is this a hunter game? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -Not traditionally. Characters will be made using the character creation rules in the Chronicles of Darkness book.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -However the goal is to have the PC's investigating, hunting and trying to halt supernatural forces. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -This game is supposed to be difficult, gritty and founded in realism. Actions have consequences and the players are playing real people.&nbsp; 2. How often will the game be? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;-As of this moment I'm planning on bi weekly.&nbsp; 3. Is stuff from the hunter book available &nbsp; &nbsp; - No. I may incorportate that later but I don't want anyone joining the game under the pretense that later on they'll be able to become Mortal + or some kind of supernatural creature. Thats not what we're going for. 4. But how can the PCs hope to survive if they are just regular people? &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; -I'm not going to put the characters into a situation that there aren't ways out of.&nbsp;
