For the first time in my life, I am not actively looking for a TTRPG group. I never thought I would say that, but here we are. I have spent a majority of my time searching for groups, so it’s kind of shocking that I finally have reached a point where I’m at my max of what campaigns I can make time for. I am in three campaigns right now, including the new Vampire: The Masquerade campaign I joined. This group is the same group I played Candela Obscura with, but instead, we switched to Vampire. The concept of this campaign is fascinating and I wanted to share more about it.

This campaign takes place in the Twin Cities in the 1920s. Most of my Vampire playing experiences are stories that take place in the current day. The fact that this takes place in the 1920s will be neat. I did a lot of research to create my characters and what would be realistic during this time period. This campaign will be interesting because we will be creating two characters. The first character would be the sire, an older vampire. The second character would be the vampire our first character created. This concept is fascinating to me. There’s a lot of back story that needs to be created. Why would our vampire choose this person to turn? What motivates them? What are the differences between this older vampire who is less attached to humanity versus the vampire who was just turned and still wants to keep their humanity? These questions were at the forefront of my mind when writing everything out.

There is still a lot of finalizing I need to do, so I won’t share much more than that. The only thing that I will share is the clan and I chose Tremere. Tremere is the clan of Blood Sorcery and notably considered blood witches. I have only played Tremere in various one-shots, so this is my first time playing a Tremere in a longer form campaign. I like paging through the sourcebook and learning what blood rituals I can learn. There’s one ritual that I’m working my way up to and it is NASTY. It’s a good offensive ritual to severly injure someone and I can’t wait to level up enough to unlock it.

I am curious to see how our sessions develop! Once I know more about my characters and their back stories, I will be the first to share it here. I can’t believe I’m in two Vampire: The Masquerade campaigns simultaneously after I went so many years without playing the game once.
