Confirmed - Weekend Game

Hi guys, this is my first post to a specific audience. If you got a link to this post from me, that means that I am inviting you to my new Vampire: the Masquerade tabletop game. This game will be played either on the Friday's that we don't have Larp or on Saturdays, depending on what is more convenient for you as my players.

What I need you to do is reply back to me either via PM on the Larp forum, email me at blackromance@gmail.com, or reply to this post with a scale of the following:
3: prefered time slot to play
2: Can play in this time slot
1: Cannot play in this time slot/not interested

The time slots are as follows:
Friday: 6:30-midnight
Saturday: 10:00-4:00
Saturday: noon-6:00
Saturday: 2:00-8:00

Just so you know, I haven't finished reading the rulebook just yet, but I hope to be finished by the end of next week. However, I want to spend at least a couple hours with each person doing character creation and the Prelude (creating the background of their character and fleshing it out through a little one on one roleplaying.)

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I am more than happy to talk about anything regarding this game (or anything at all, really).

(Note 1: the following has absolutely nothing at all to do with WoD canon and it will probably stay that way. Some things from canon may be included, some may not, but unless you are told specifically about anything, you probably won't know more than the basics of history. I'm going to try and write up some so that there is some to know.)

(Note 2: I am a new ST and by such plan to read up on the rules and such, but I may get things wrong. Forgive me. I welcome all kinds of constructive criticism and if you wish to point out a rule that I've bungled, do so and give me a page number for reference. The books that we will be using are the core books only. I may use some information from the other books, but it will be at my discrection and I will not require you to know anything from the additional books. I will even try and write up the information that you will need from the core books into a cheatsheet.)

Kindred,

Up until about thirty years ago, the Vampire infestation of North America had been contained pretty much within the United States and Mexico. Very few Vampires ventured into Canada because of rumors of a growing Werewolf infestation. However, in the late 70s, the Camarilla managed to secure a decent presence within Vancouver, British Columbia because it is so close to the United States border. That presence continued to grow until earlier this year when all communications with Vancouver stopped dead.

You are a group of Thirteenth Generation vampires who have been embraced within the last ten years. You have the honor of having been selected by the Camarilla in order to scout out the situation and find out what happened.

Your mission is as follows:
- Secure cover identities in Vancouver using your abilities and mingle with the community.
- Use your new found connections to investigate the drop in communications.
- Try to contact any Camarilla Vampires remaining in Vancouver.
- Be on the watch for Werewolves and Sabbat. Even though it would have been likely for us to hear if either had been the cause of disrupted communication, it should not be taken for granted.
- Report your findings back to the Camarilla Prince of Seattle.

Thank you and I wish you the best of luck and speed,
