My game, oWoD Dark Ages: Light's Spiral into Blackness, is starting up again after a 7-month hiatus. I'm looking for new werewolves, vampires, and mages. This is a once-a-week game. Here's the game intro:
The year is circa 1200 A.D. The season is late summer. The place is Norchester, a fictional town near Lancaster in northern England. The city sits at the fork of two rivers running through a wide valley between the foothills of the Pennines to the east, and Morecambe Bay to the west. Food is plentiful in the valley, and the city prospers and grows as a result.
To the werewolves, the city and valley were once relatively free of Wyrm-taint. Recently, however, things have been changing ominously for the worse. Strange and foul creatures now wander freely through the valley in increasing numbers. It all began when the Caern of East Fork Falls, located to the east of Norchester, suddenly became unreachable.
To the mages, it was once a sanctuary for exploring all that magic might offer. Under the leadership of Lord Arthur Glorian before his mysterious disappearance last winter, knowledge of the arcane arts flourished in the valley. There was once balance among the people and spirits of the land. Now with him gone, and the pagan matriarch Moraina with him, the Church has been gaining in strength.
To the vampires, unknown forces had always prevented any of them from surviving for very long in this city. All of this changed a month ago when Edward Duchene somehow made a permanent foothold and declared Norchester to be his. Prince Mithras of London, and the Toreador of Edinburgh, are both openly interested in seizing the territory for themselves, but for now they closely watch the progress of this upstart young Gangrel to see how he fares in such a dangerous place.
Duchene has put out an active call for others to join him in Norchester to help keep hold of the city, take advantage of its prosperity, and learn whatever secrets it may hold. All vampire PCs will begin the game as new arrivals answering his call.
Werewolf PCs will begin the game either as a member of the Sept of the Ancient Oak (a small Red Talon caern to the north of the city) who is returning from a disastrously-failed mission, as a member of a Bone Gnawer sept within Norchester, or as a new arrival/visitor to the area.
Mage PCs will try to uncover the truth behind the disappearance of the true lord of Norchester, return him to his rightful place, and restore the natural balance once again.
Please come look.
