25 Years of Vampire: The Masquerade

“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."

"Love Bites features the messy entanglements that
emerge when what passes for love among the Kindred
meets politics. On New Year’s Eve, the Prince entrusts
an up-and-coming Maréchal coterie with what seems
like an easy task: escort her prodigal grandchilde,
Gatsby, to a Nosferatu party hosted by visiting
Cleopatras, ensure he has a memorable night, and safely
return him to her penthouse before ...

"The Baali are a clan causing much controversy. The question
whether they qualify as a clan or just a bloodline (and
if so from which clan) is open for discussion. While the
Kindred are generally not considered heroes and revel in
their dark drives, the Baali are regarded as pure evil. They
are accused of consorting with demons, corrupting mortals
and kindred alike, and working to bring about Gehenna to...

"...Hear now the tales of the past. Sing of the ancient times and
the bright morning and golden afternoon of our lives. For in the
time before the Wyrmcomers, we did not yet fear the coming of the
night. Our voices lit the darkness then as we sang of our triumphs
and sorrows. My song tonight holds within it the tales of those times, of little brother Wendigo and elder brother Uktena. These
tales may show ou...
