You are the chosen guards of Settore Dolce; the sprawling, high-tech estate of Prince Rennato Ferrari. You *do not* leave the grounds. You are the wall between the Prince and a world of envious Primogens, desperate refugees, and the ghosts of the past.
- You will be a Cerberus Coterie type
- System: V5 (Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition)
- Format: "Bottle" Chronicle (The entire game takes place on one massive property; think SAW meets Succession).
- Length: 10–15 Sessions (Mini-campaign).
- Duration: See link
- Tone: Gritty, Psychological, Intimate, and Mature.
This is not a "superheroes with fangs" game. We are using a Hierarchy of Construction to explore the heavy rot beneath the glamour. Expect themes of:
- Damaged Inner-Child & Suicidal Depression
- Unwilling Isolation & Exclusion
- Kindness vs. Misanthropy
- Self-Fulfilling Prophecies
Chronicle Tenets:
These will be the default tenets if you, the players, cannot come up with any. There will be as many tenets are there are players otherwise, so this list is subject to being extended.
- The Hand that feeds, is the Hand that rules
- Turn the other cheek
- Let he who is without sin, cast the first stone
(Chronicle tenants are subject to change at Session 0. Yes, we are doing a session 0.)
LOOKING FOR PLAYERS WHO:
- Value Character Development and Internal Conflict.
- Are comfortable with heavy emotional themes (Safety tools will be in use).
- Enjoy the pressure of a closed-circle mystery where every NPC is a potential threat or a tragic victim.
- Can commit to a short, somewhat intense story arc.
