Vampire: The Masquerade - The Dark Age Chronicles

Many of the struggles and hatreds endemic to eastern Europe can be traced back for centuries, or even millennia. Religious division between Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic Christians, strife between Christians and pagans, and political struggles between aristocrats and the oppressed thrive in this dark land. Ethnic conflicts between Romanians, Hungarians, Szeklers, Saxons and Vlachs pass from generation to generation, like a hereditary disease. This is just as true for the undead, who transfer these same burdens from sire to childe.

While mortals suffer the result of their hatreds by day, Cainites wage wars and plot horrors by night. Peasants and nobles alike shutter their windows and bar their doors when the sun sets, and few mortals have the courage to travel by moonlight. Of those who do, the most unfortunate are enlisted by the undead and engaged in their devious schemes. Caine’s childer are the unquestioned masters of the night in Transylvania.

Our introductory chronicle takes place starting in the year 1100 in the triple city of Buda-Pest. Shortly after the brith and usurpation of clan Tremere, it places our characters in the eye of the proverbial storm of history.

I have enough source materials to carry us through from 1100 AD till modern times, if the group is into it and we like each other :D

Rules: V20 - Dark Ages (I have the sourcebooks to share)

About me: 44 y/o he/him - Long time D&D player and DM, I have always loved WoD/VtM lore but have never played a table top. Till recently when I got to play and loved it so much I decided to give it a go because I really love the system and I love the depth of RP offered by the storyteller system and I love the lore.

This will be my first time running a game using the storyteller system but I am patient and eager to learn so any experienced players who have advice and wanna help are welcome.
