Okay, I want to do an RP based off of the World of Darkness, and this time, I'm actually going to go through with it.

I even picked out a city for the setting, a semi-fictionalized version of Roanoke, Virginia, as well as the surrounding metropolitan and rural areas.

However, I'm not sure if I should do an Old World of Darkness RP focusing on Vampire The Masquerade, Mage The Ascension, Mortals, and the fan-game Senshi The Merchandising, or a New World of Darkness RP based off of Vampire The Requiem and Changeling The Lost. Which one should I go with?

Bear in mind, in my Old World of Darkness RP, we will NOT use the metaplot from Revised Edition.

Definitely interested, as I love World of Darkness.

[up]Cool

So, do you want Old World of Darkness or New World of Darkness? I'm more familiar with Old World, but I do have the books for New World.

I'm actually cool with either one. It will depend on the preference of the other players since, unlike some other more hardcore guys, I don't actually have anything against nWoD. If you put a gun against my head, I'd say that you should do oWoD since you're more comfortable with it.

I'm interested. I've never played the actual tabletop, but I love Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines, so I'd be leaning towards the O Wo D.

Although I'm wary since the last time nothing came of it I am also interested (I mean it's not like you're asking me to invest money) and, not being familiar with the New, vote for the Old.

Okay, I will do an Old World of Darkness RP focusing on Vampire: The Masquerade.

We will NOT use the Metaplot, so Gangrel are still Camarilla, the Ravnos are doing quite well, and none of that Gehenna BS has actually happened.

Also, Kuei-Jin do NOT exist in this game, and Kindred Of The East is not a part of my take on the World of Darkness. Instead, East Asia is thoroughly dominated by Vampires, with Tokyo being the seat of the Camarilla.

Anyway, the basic idea is Camarilla-focused. The players are a coterie of vampires entering the Roanoke Valley in Virginia. We will decide the Prince and try and extend our control over the city, and also fend off other vampires from other clans and sects, as well as supernatural creatures such as Mages, Werewolves, and Fae.

These are the clans available for play at the beginning of the RP.

  • Brujah
  • Gangrel
  • Malkavian
  • Nosferatu
  • Toreador
  • Tremere
  • Ventrue

More clans will become playable later on as the RP progresses, where we will introduce the Sabbat, Anarchs, Independent Clans, and Inconnu to Roanoke, as well as Werewolves, Mages, Fae, Mortals, and Senshi.

Also, the Tremere weakness has been changed to reflect the nature of Play-By-Post gaming. Tremere cannot have a physical attribute above three dots.
