Monte Cook's World of Darkness

"One year ago, eldritch horrors of cosmic malevolence called the Iconnu attempted to destroy our reality. They failed, but the attempt left the world in rapidly darkening shadow. Dead souls returned to claim living bodies, creating blood-drinking undead fiends: vampires. Bestial spirits came as well, to create werewolves, and demons formed bodies from worldly matter. Magic crashed back into the world, and mages wield its power for whatever purpose suits them. Humans called the Awakened unknowingly keep the darkness at bay. These supernatural creatures struggle against each other and clash in the shadows, most attempting to destroy the world, but a few fighting to preserve it. And over it all, the Iconnu still lurk, squeezing the world like an eggshell."

A Monte Cook's World of Darkness game, set in Chicago about a year-and-a-half after the Intrusion.

Currently trying to reboot things after a long, unplanned absence on my part.

We're looking for characters of all types, though demons will have to have a really good concept, so send me an idea (or two) for a character and we'll probably be able to fit you in.

In reply to hobgob (msg #1):

How much will the mechanics be involed? I own the book and have given it a read but frankly mechanics can be intrusive in a PBP game if mishandled. That being said I am interested.

Re: Monte Cook's World of Darkness

The mechanics will be as much behind the scenes as possible. We're focused more on creating a good story than crunching numbers.

Re: Monte Cook's World of Darkness

Currently looking for characters for a couple of different stories:
  • One or two non-demon characters to work with a small private investigation agency looking into Intrusion-related and mundane cases
  • A female character to interact with a musician with a dark past
RMail me and/or request access for more details.

Considering all character types. Get in on an existing story, or start your own!

Re: Monte Cook's World of Darkness

Especially looking for a combat-oriented character to assist a group of investigators, but all types would be considered.

Familiarity with the system/setting is not a requirement; the Game Master handles most of the mechanics and you can quickly learn the most important setting details.

Re: Monte Cook's World of Darkness

We're always accepting new characters, but right now we aren't looking for any more demons. Other character types (Awakened, mages, vampires, and werewolves) are welcome to apply.

Depending on your character and your interests, you can jump into one of our existing story lines or start a new one; together we'll create an interesting story for you.

Familiarity with the rules is NOT necessary; the emphasis here is on storytelling, not mechanics.

Re: Monte Cook's World of Darkness

We lost a few players, but we've got several others who are eager to keep going!

If you're interested, we can find a place for you. No demons, though.

Re: Monte Cook's World of Darkness

I'm very interested in this game system. I bought the rule set when it came out, but have never managed to play it. I've enjoyed most of Monte Cook's games: always hideously unbalanced but loads of fun.

I'd very much like to play a Vampire. (I've never played a vampire with a group involving non vampires, so I am keen to see how it works out).

Couple of questions:
* Are we going with the standard Monte Cook
* What level will we be starting at
