A
Dark Ages: World of Darkness game set in the year of our lord 1490.
Become embroiled in the tumultuous politics between the local Kindred
(Vampires) and Fae (Changeling) courts in the grand city Vieuxtrice,
capitol of the fictional Burgundian fiefdom of Gansción. An Old promise
has kept the peace between the Fae and the Kindred for centuries. A
promise now broken. Worse yet, none seem to remember what promise was
even made... The Kindred wage a
dark war as the Anarch revolt draws to a bloody close and Antediluvians
are devoured by their childer. The Shattering has rocked the Fae
world. Commoner and Sidhe alike are lost in an Autumn world. The Rosace
is among the few Freeholds remaining since the advent of the
Interregnum, drawing, like a moth to the flame, both the desperate and
the depraved. All the while, the Inquisition lays wood for their witch
pyres. Explore the rich World of
Darkness in the backdrop of Renaissance Europe. That makes me sound
like a bargain European tour-guide, but believe me, it's much more than
that. The Renaissance was a time of change and wonder. Inundated with
ideas both old and new. Rediscovery and Exploration. It was, also, a
time of conflict and war. A time of uncertainty. The ideals of Chivalry
are dying out, slowly being replaced by conceits of pragmatism. Some
cling tightly to the old traditions, unwilling to let them be snuffed
out by banal progress. Others run headlong into the future, reveling in
the new avenues of academia and culture. Who
will you be? Will you be an Autumn Sidhe swashbuckler seeking
adventure and glory? A political Ventrue scheming for power and
influence? Perhaps a Brujah with a heart of gold, grappling with the
contradiction of damnation and redemption? Or something stranger? A
Mage of the Order of Hermes lured by the mystery of the aforementioned
old promise, for example. Maybe a Fianna werewolf drawn into changeling
court politics by the power of an old pact. An Inquisitor sent to the
region to root out the dark mysteries and battle against wicked fiends
lurking in the dark. Any and all of these character seeds will find
fertile soil in Gansción. The land is rife with mystery and intrigue.
New promises made and old ones broken. There are things in the dark
that bite, and mysteries that tantalize and enlighten. It is up to you
which you uncover. In other words: here is a knife and a fork, my
friend. Now, go and see what you can cut with them. Details:
the exact details of the game are to be determined. I will be free any
day except for Wednesdays and Sundays. my timezone is CST, but don't
let that concern you overmuch. My schedule is flexible. I'll be
allowing nearly any character (within reason) from the lines of
Vampire, Werewolf, Changeling, Inquisitor, or Mage. I may also be
persuaded to allow others if you have a compelling enough argument or
concept. Whether or not this game features a motley crew of plucky
young heroes, righting wrongs and saving princesses or a disparate cast
of schemers and politicians is up to you. The choice is yours. If interested you can DM me here or add me on Discord. My handle is joshuaaarchibald#0254 The
