~ The First IC Location: Miami, FL ~


This game will emphasize more the 'rugged individualist' aspect of the Sabbat. These will be newly Embraced Sabbat trying to find their place and coming to terms with their new natures, some exploration of the bonds created under their first Vinculum, trying to create names for themselves, etc. This game will be oriented more towards the sociopolitical and personal side of the Sabbat. This game won't be about gratuitous monstrosity or evil, though the Sabbat will never be as tame as the Camarilla.

So what is this? This will be a 'traveling Sabbat pack' chronicle where the game is set up as a series of 'one-shots' where the pack has an adventure in one city & then moves on afterwards. First location? Miami! This will periodically destabilize the city if it's a Camarilla one, bolster it if it's a Sabbat one, etc. The starting city will be Miami, Florida, in the USA, but the group could hypothetically go anywhere after that. They will be allowed to periodically return to locations they've visited before. Why a traveling Sabbat pack? I feel that a group of Sabbat trying to get used to their new natures might take to traveling pretty well, especially if they want to escape the trappings of their old mortal lives.

It's March of 2018, and Miami's just as alive as ever, even if it's filled with the undead. Miami has always been a Sabbat stronghold, for the most part, as many east-coast cities and southern cities are. However, in recent years, the Camarilla has begun making forays to try to take Miami for their own, recognizing the importance of this iconic port city in the struggle for ideological dominance. Miami has a thriving Sabbat political structure, both from the kine perspective and the Cainite one.

It's the Cainite one worth focusing on. Two Bishops call Miami home:

Bishop Alejandro Cordero: A wily Malkavian antritribu believed to originally hail from Cuba. He left during the 'Prime Minister' years of Fidel Castro, though its unclear how he managed that feat. Bishop Cordero is a slim man with white hair, dark skin, and wide dark eyes, who tends to wax eloquent about propaganda. He thinks that the easiest way to prove the superiority of the Sabbat is not to slay every servant of the Ivory Tower the Sword of Caine finds, but to focus on the conversion of neonates. Cordero looks just shy of twenty years old, physically.

Bishop Sofia de Viamonte: A Lasombra of significant age and repute. She seems to know Cordero from Cuba, but she seems to be much older than him. She has been content these many years to rule alongside Cordero. Sofia, for all her quiet solemnity, is often seen as "Miami's warlord," as she often leads terrifying attacks against the Camarilla with the help of her favorite Templar, a Ventrue antitribu named Isabella. Sofia is a curvaceous woman with a sultry alto voice and long dark hair. Her eyes, however, are a vibrant gray. She believes that the Camarilla are actively endangering all Cainites by spreading lies and sees it as her duty to stop such foolishness. de Viamonte looks old for a Kindred--she is past forty years of age, but that has only added a mature charm to her.

And there are two Templars worth noting:

Templar Isabella: Bishop de Viamonte's right hand. Widely believed to have been a former pack priest with de Viamonte as the old ductus in said pack. Isabella is a tall woman with short chocolate hair, slim limbs, and a piercing black gaze. Isabella is incredibly loyal and honest, but that does not always make her pleasant. She is a very 'business first, pleasure later' sort of woman. She looks to be in her mid-20s.

Templar Rothchilde: Cordero's right hand-- a humongous Nosferatu who has all the penchant for violence that Cordero doesn't. He has animalistic traits--lizard-like limbs, to be precise. Rothchilde is probably the 'newest' in the Sabbat hierarchy in Miami. He has an especial dislike of neonates, seeing them as 'weakening' the Blood. He wears his hideousness as a badge of honor, seeing in the Nosferatu 'curse' true freedom from ever seeing himself as human again. His age is indeterminate, though it's clear he's certainly quite the adult.

There are a few other Sabbat packs roaming Miami, all of which answer to either Cordero or de Viamonte, not because of any respect to authority, but because both Bishops are formidable indeed.

The beginning of our chronicle will involve Bishop di Viamonte soliciting the newest pack of Miami for a task through her Templar, Isabella.

~ Game Rules, FAQ, Need-to-Know ~

  • You must have at least this book to play. I am also allowing content from the V20 Lore of the Clans & the V20 Companion. I'm potentially allowing Chapter 2 from Rites of the Blood, but only Chapter 2. I will not accept non-V20 content, nor will I accept sourcebooks not listed here. I am sharply looking to limit how much info I have to sift through, GM-wise. I will further define what is and is not playable in the character generation section in the next post.
  • This game will go into EX, but that being said, that's just to cover any particularly intense stuff. The general expectation is that we are staying away from monstrosity for monstrosity's sake or evil simply for evil's sake, so be mindful. This game's focus is plot. I will frown on people who 'pair off' and only wish to write sexual scenes. Think of this as a game about vampires that happens to allow sexual content, not a sex game about vampires, if that makes any sense.
  • LGBTQA-friendly. Sort of have to be, given Tzimisce flesh-crafting.
  • I have no post length minimum or post rate requirement, but I'm asking for some reasonable pacing, because with small groups, I sort of need that energy to maintain consistent interest. I'm not going to set a hard and fast requirement, but if posting drops to less than 1/week, I'd find it hard to maintain interest, personally.
  • Lords, Ladies, Lieges, and Legates welcome, and they may write any gender/sexuality for a PC they wish. You should be willing to write with someone writing a character who doesn't match their gender in RL.
  • Smut will get its own side-thread; sexual content should go there. Gratuitous sexuality for sex's sake is going to be a bit frowned on.
  • Player vs. Player is not permitted, not without pre-approving it with me, the GM.
  • Characters must be 18+ in both body and mind.
  • This is a system game. The dice will not always be your friend. It is possible your character could die. If they die, you will be allowed to make a new character with an extra 20 EXP on top of what your old character had, to reward you for being a good sport!
  • All rolls will be done via Elliquiy's Dicebot and sent to my ID of 42233. You will post rolls in the game threads under a spoiler tag.
  • Posting should be done in 3rd person perspective. I am open to feedback if we should do present tense or past tense, however. :-)
  • If you have an issue with another player, you should take it up with them in private or come to me in private. Do not use the game's OOC thread for it.

Permitted Playables: (anything not explicitly listed here is not permitted)
  • Tzimisce
  • Lasombra
  • Ventrue antitribu
  • Toreador antitribu
  • Malkavian antitribu
  • Nosferatu antitribu
  • Ravnos antitribu
  • Brujah antitribu
  • Country or City Gangrel
  • Salubri antitribu
  • Panders
  • Daughters of Cacophony
  • Kiasyd

    Character Generation:
  • You get an extra 15 EXP to start with! Otherwise, follow character creation in the rulebook as per standard neonate, spending your extra EXP once you finish assigning Freebies.
  • All PCs will start on the path of Humanity. During the chronicle, opportunities/teachers will be given if PCs wish to change to a new Path. I'm starting them on Humanity because I feel it's a good initial 'gratuitous evil' filter & makes sense for newly made Sabbat.
  • You may not take more than 3 dots in Generation.
  • You should not have higher than 1 dot in Status with the Sabbat without getting that approved with me first. I'll want a pretty good reason it's over 1.
  • Allies, Contacts, Herd, Influence & Domain are all location-specific Backgrounds. If you take these, they will initially apply to Miami, though because traveling chronicles can make these seem less attractive choices, I will permit PCs, upon arrival to a 'new' city, to cultivate 'new' allies, contacts, herds, influence, or domains to replace their old ones. This will reflect them 'losing' the ties to the old city, having moved on, and getting immersed into the 'new' city. It should be noted that 'old' contacts will be easier to re-acquire than 'new' ones, if you return to an old city. This will typically be done as 'downtime' or 'offscreen' to save time & trouble. Try not to abuse this; this is meant to make these viable choices for this chronicle, not to get 'free' stuff without paying in each city.
  • Merits are capped at seven points.
  • Flaws are capped at seven points.
  • Thaumaturgy will not be permitted at character creation. There may be opportunities to learn it later in-game.
  • If you wish to play the 'pack priest,' you need at least 1 dot in Rituals. If you need an IC reason to know Rituals, consider taking the Mentor background (see 'Character Backstory Requirements.')

    Character Backstory Requirements:
  • Your PC has been Embraced in the past year in Miami, Florida, in the USA. Maybe they were originally from Miami, maybe they were passing through. But they were Embraced in Miami, and in Miami they will have met their pack.
  • Your character will be part of a pack & will have to roll Vinculum scores once we have a set of accepted characters. I strongly suggest leaving a bit of your background 'open' to accommodate when your PC met their Sabbat pals; PCs may want to coordinate some backstory elements.
  • If you take the Mentor background, you will receive a Sabbat Templar mentor, a Ventrue antitribu of Miami who may or may not choose to travel with the pack from time to time. The power level of this Mentor will be determined by pooling the Background dots of everyone who took Mentor. This character will be a stalwart ally and guide, a former pack priest before she chose to walk a somewhat different path. Her name will be Isabella, and she will be on the Path of Honorable Accord. She will have been part of Miami's Sabbat politics for several decades but will be growing tired of being in the same city, seeking to fulfill her duties elsewhere soon. Isabella is also available to have as a Sire, potentially, though you should work that out with me directly. That being said, Mentor or not, a perfectly viable backstory reason to have met the other PCs can always be "Isabella found my character and introduced them to the other PCs."
  • No lone wolves. By that, I mean intentionally creating a character with no interest in cooperating with a pack. That defeats the purpose of a Sabbat chronicle. It is completely fine to have tension between PCs, but they should be working together, if only because of the Vinculum.

Alrighty, interest check for this is now open. I'm seeking 4 - 6 players.

Submit characters directly here to the interest check.

I'll be leaving interest open for at least a week, maybe longer. This is so people will have time to PM me with queries, work on backstory, fiddle with the table sheet coding, etc.

Answering a query I got via PM here in-thread since I think it'll help others:

Q: "Thaumaturgy isn't allowed starting out (though it might be later), but what about Koldunism? Can we have that starting out?"

A: I will permit Koldunism starting out (it's a bit more in-line with genuine Sabbat flavor than Thaumaturgy), though you will need an IC reason in your backstory to justify knowing it. As such, Chapter 7, pgs. 156 - 158 from V20's Rites of the Blood, is now acceptable source material. I have a strong preference, if you want Koldunism, that you be playing either a Tzimisce or the pack's priest, which would be the more sensible IC reasons to have it.

Some more clarifications!

Q: "Is Abyss Mysticism allowed, and if so, are there backstory requirements to have it?"
A: Yes, as I think it's very 'Sabbat' in flavor, and the requirement is: your PC must be a Lasombra who learned it from another Lasombra. I am highly unlikely to ever permit non-Lasombra to have Abyss Mysticism.

Q: "Are you permitting Combination Disciplines?"
A: Yes! Though starting EXP is only 15, so you are unlikely to get a lot of these at character creation.




And for those interested--great! Take your time if need be, and ask any questions you might have here or in PM. I will do my best to answer!

Nuu! *wanted to be the pack priest so he could have his character referee all the silly Sabbat ritual game shenanigans* DX

Fine I'll just be our ductus possibly then. She will enjoy ordering the pack pack mules around. xD

People are welcome to submit what they want to play within the chronicle's requirements, and from there I'll pick what I think makes a good group, both IC and OOC-wise, assuming this gets off the ground. ^^

Shooting for either Pack Priest or Pack Ductus. If I don't get priest I'll be shifting some points I'll probably be axing rituals and funneling the points into some other background category or two

I see you're doing the powerplay thing of giving Clan-Unique Disciplines to your Pander, Drow.

Wander I do remember Blythe saying something about undermining other players. We've been through this song and dance before, I'd rather not cause needless drama on this thread simply because you don't like how I built my character. :P


Quote from: Rook Seidhr on March 16, 2018, 03:06:43 PM
Yeah. Serpentis, Vicissitude and Protean. Wow.

that's the blessing and curse of being a Pander. You can pick anything you want in starting disciplines but are seen as a filthy thin blooded abomination by any non-catiff kindred.

I'm considering her possibly being salvage from a raid on a covert Settite compound on the outskirts of the city that our dear Bishops saw fit to snuff out before it grew any bigger (as is usually the wise course of action when Snakes are involved). For all we know those snakes could've been looking to refine the shovelhead process to make a kindred ubermench army or something. Snakes like making chaos, what better way to fuck with the Sabbat then unleashing a bunch of newborn bloodthirsty gremlins to cause wanton mayhem and drunken in full view of the kine to compromise their place in the city? :P

*shrugs* I'll figure something more sensical out likely. 0-0

...I'm going to be pretty honest, this is really not the sort of OOC dynamic I wanted when I was considering running a game. Already the interest check's got the sort of tension that doesn't lend well to a long-term stable group. This is not said to upset anyone, but is simply being said as a frequent GM who runs a lot of groups and knows what I need, ICly and OOCly, to successfully run a group.

I think I'm going to nix running this one. I appreciate the interest, folks, but I can tell this one's not going to pan out at this point in time. Perhaps in the future it might be in the stars.

Wishing you all the best, and thanks for your time.
