This is a collaborative effort play-by-post game of World of Darkness where everyone plays what they want.

That's the idea!

To make this work, everyone interested has the option to either be a StoryTeller or Player Character (ST or PC), or even both, if they want, for another player of the opposite type.

These are one-on-one personalized games that we're aiming for, so everyone pairing up is writing their adventure with whoever they're teamed with, in a game sense.

Think of it like an RP group but with a G tacked in at the end of RP.


So, what's the game looking like?

This is set in the default World of Darkness/Chronicles of Darkness tone; there's a hidden world under our own mundane one full of all the monsters of lore and mythology that movies are made of.

If you've seen Supernatural, read/watched Buffy, played The Secret World, or read Preacher, you probably already have a fair idea how this works thematically. Vampires and werewolves and mystics and undead and demons are all hidden among our peers and social circles, fighting secret wars for their goals, beliefs, or very survival.

Everyone's game is expected to be set in North America, mostly for convenience of team-ups and local news shaking things up. But particularly travel-hungry players can always board a flight to any place in the world if they have reason to go.

Ideally, we'll have werewolf packs disapproving of one of their own teaming up with a local vampire hunter, or mages trying to work to their secret goals while dealing with condescending and powerful demons, or vampires getting up to no good with werewolves to help each other out. Of course, there's always the solo games where everyone works toward their ambitions and goals, but it's nice to be distracted with friends if you can be!


So maybe you're asking, "Hey, Alex, O Great and Powerful, how much do I have to read on this World of Darkness book to actually play?"

Good question. Maybe just read the summaries on the race you want to play HERE in the Chronicles of Darkness section. See what you like! If you like one concept and get an idea, get the official book and read more on it! Make sure it's what you wanna do!


Besides that? You should really just ask me or someone else if you're having this many questions.
