Alrighty, I've had an itch to play a World of Darkness campaign for quite some time now, and since there isn't one going on here, I'm going to run one instead :3
I want some feedback from those who are interested, but I'm thinking of doing it almost entirely freeform, and only resorting to something involving random chance when/if PvP comes into play. I am basing this quite heavily off of Mind's Eye Theater in terms of the Clans, Disciplines, and Setting, so it may be handy to have the main book for that, which I just so happen to have uploaded for easy perusal, here you all go:
Feel free to ignore pretty much everything in there, or to not even download it at all, as the characters will still be fresh to the afterlife, So they will be learning pretty much everything they need as they go along.
Speaking of which, I am planning to run everybody's Introduction in separate threads, starting them off as mortals and having them Embraced shortly before everyone starts playing together. Depending on the number of players and their preference, I am willing to play any of the three factions among the kindred (Camarilla, Sabbat, and Anarch), or even all three, playing against each other to achieve their goals, which in my personal experience, works amazingly well if done properly.
Now lets see, what else... Ah yes, characters. Like I said, I plan on having everyone do a quick solo introduction as a mortal. I would like to see some depth of character, the more detailed you are, the better informed I am as to how to incorporate them into the story. Your background and how you play during your intro also determine what Clan you end up being embraced as. That's right, You don't get to choose your clan outright, though your opinion does get weight. Basically, I'll take a look at your character and how you play them, and I'll decide which clans are likely to embrace you. I'll be making a paper sheet for everybody in case it's needed, but apart from what supernatural abilities your character is capable of, it will have no effect on most of the game.
Alrighty, I might as well stick this up now. I won't be starting it for a couple weeks at least, but that gives plenty of time for questions and interest to build While I am off on vacation :3 So, questions, concerns, no matter how small, post 'em, I'll answer as fast as I am able. I know a lot of this probably doesn't make sense to someone that doesn't know what I'm talking about, but don't let that scare you off!
