Join us in our weekly reviews of White Wolf releases over the last 25 years. Bob, Brennan, Chris and Mike review the Classic World of Darkness books for White Wolf Publishing's games, Vampire: the Masquerade, Werewolf: the Apocalypse, and Wraith: the Oblivion, in chronological order. They combine their passion for the game with a dose of in-depth knowledge to help you decide which books to buy and which books to skip. VTM25 is the premiere White Wolf podcast!
Everyone’s saying the Masquerade can’t survive smartphones, AI, or facial recognition. But what if that’s just mortal arrogance talking? In this episode, we break down why vampire society is still untouchable—and how Kindred adapt, evolve, and manipulate modern tech better than most humans ever will.

A detailed look at the hidden spirit nature of cities
• New urban threats for use in any chronicle

In this episode, we crack open Possessed: A Player’s Guide—a hauntingly overlooked gem from White Wolf's World of Darkness line. This isn’t your usual vampire politics or werewolf rage-fest. We’re going deeper, darker, and weirder.
What happens when a spirit—Bane, Drone, Wyld-thing, or something much stranger—climbs inside a human being and decides to take the wheel? From the shock troops of the Wyrm to techno-slaves of the Wea...
It’s with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to one of our own—Kevin Parker, affectionately known in our community as "Gotham Madman." An original fan, steadfast supporter, and cherished friend, Kevin brought genuine joy, deep insight, and endless passion to our World of Darkness adventures.
Join me as I reflect on eight memorable years of friendship, laughter, gaming debates, and shared stories. This special episode honors ...

In this deep dive into Werewolf: The Apocalypse - Bone Gnawers Revised, we explore their spoken word origins as Garou rejects turned hardened warriors, their unique culture and survivalist mindset, and the strange, forgotten spirits they revere—from Rat, the eternal survivor and even the American Dream itself—a broken, wandering ghost of what could have been.

"..and remember cub or whoever reads this, the garou nation does not think of the weaver--or The Namer or whatever, as a male."
Authors: James Kiley, Ellen Kiley, & Matthew MacFarland
Are they still the radical feminist warriors of the Garou, or have they grown into something even greater?

"For the werewolf, their childhood is full of sleep
paralysis and brief encounters with the world beyond. From
nightmares to daydreams to out of body experiences,
the Umbra haunts many young Garou-to-be and this world, or
worlds, just beyond our own is the subject of this book."

"Welcome Dear Reader.
In your hands, you hold the first of three books
dedicated to Sabbat the Schism, the Lore book.
The idea for this book was born when The
Black Hand: Sabbat sourcebook came out.
Based on observations of the content, and
how it fit into the overaching metaplot across
editions, a simple idea was born: the Schism of
Sabbat.
The Black Hand was clearly the loyalist and

"Let me tell you a story. evil had a name, it was Nephthys. As a living
woman, she was a priestess of Isis herself, and no living creature would harm her. But every good gesture in her life she made was reduced to less than nothing when she accepted Sutekh's Embrace...*

We close the Ahroun Chapter with a focus on the Annals of Albrecht and his Ancestral story of Magic Shroom Milk from the Spirit Deer and the double standard of acceptable mazophilia when it comes directly from Gaia.
"You’ve been Embraced, brought into the night and left to fend for yourself with your
coterie. Now what?"
The Crimson Gutter chronicle introduces core concepts during play such as feeding, the sects (Anarchs, Camarilla, and the Church of Caine), and the Masquerade itself while giving the players’ characters a chance to carve a niche for themselves among the Kindred.

“It’s so romantic! Just imagine how beautiful it must have been, the Vermilion Wedding. I’m so envious.
I wish I could have something like that. I remember when I was a mortal, all those feelings.
Love. Affection. Care. I want to have those feelings again!”

This was written to correct a podcast I could not stand by. The original Werewolf 5th edition came from a perception of a clear bias. I wanted "5th edition". What we got was "Werewolf the Apocalypse". A reimagined story. Reimagined means to reinterpret imaginatively. I did not give it a solid chance.
2 months since I released that pod, I have been working on a campaign for the reimagined werewolf story and...
"Get comfy, pups. If you want a tale of blood, claws,
gore, and guts, I’m going to regale you with one hell
of a tragic story. These are the recollections of Astrid
Broken Claw, Ahroun of the Get of Fenris. Do you
know her name? You should. She was a key player in
the Amazon War of the late 20th century. Astrid herself
told me — Nina Freeman, her blessed granddaughter."
