Feel free to consider this file as a list of what they want us to believe... Your Storyteller may or should have his own view of the World of Darkness. You can send me updates...

About Caine and his progeny, about the Antediluvians. A table, chronologically sorted. The biggest genealogy trees. Of course many undeads are missing on this list : look at the expected numbers.

  • Changing Breed House Rules For
    CHANGING BREED HOUSE RULES FOR: Chicago: New Moon Rising (+satellites) Enigmas of Rage Obsidian Shadows If at any time you wish to question a rules call made by the Staff, the final decision is made by the HST. 1 Unless the rules call affects the survival of a PC, please ask it after the scene resolves. 2 Conduct Rules Black Card - The World of Darkness can present themes of personal horror that can become intense for players. At any time when in a scene, if a player is uncomfortable, they may declare a Black Card. The character will continue to be present in the scene, but the player need not be present. Afterward, a Storyteller will speak with the player and go over the events in a manner the player finds acceptable and inform them of any consequences to their character. These situations will be treated with the utmost respect by all players and staff. Time-Out Rule - For moments where the Black Card is not needed, but a player feels a situation, scene, or interaction is beginning to overwhelm them, the player may place their hand over their head in a fist to indicate they are taking a time-out. They may, then, walk away from the scene temporarily. All other players are not to disturb the Time-Out player during this time. A staff member or player rep will handle interactions with that individual until they are able to come back. If this occurs in the middle of a scene, that scene is considered to be in time-stop until the player is able to return.
