Vampire The Masquerade 5E (2018)

Overview

Vampire: The Masquerade (5th Edition) is published by Renegade Games Studios and was released in 2018. It is a TTRPG-scene classic for vampire-themed games. Set in an alternative, but modern, world, called "World of Darkness". The players will step into the shoes of recently turned vampires, now thrust into the dark underworld of the vampire society. It is a storytelling game focusing on personal and political horror. Description The players, now part of "The Masquerade" have to keep their new identity a secret from the human population, while at the same time engaging with various vampire clans and factions. Managing the new reality, both in terms of new societal norms and requirements, and their vampiric hunger, will set the players on a different "adventure" altogether. System Overview & Key Features
Storyteller System (d10 Dice Pool) The system utilizes the Storyteller engine, which uses pools of ten-sided dice (d10). To resolve actions, the player adds the character's Attribute and Skill scores together to determine the total number of dice rolled. Any die showing a 6 or higher counts as a success. Rolling multiple 10s yields a critical success.
Disciplines Player characters have access to supernatural abilities known as Disciplines. These include categorized powers such as enhanced physical speed, cognitive manipulation, and physical mutation. Activating these abilities frequently requires a "Rouse Check," a dice roll that carries a probability of increasing the character's Hunger level.
Touchstones and Humanity Characters possess a Humanity rating that measures their ethical degradation. To maintain this rating, characters link themselves to "Touchstones," which are specific human non-player characters representing the vampire's surviving mortal values. If a Touchstone is damaged or killed, the player character risks a permanent reduction to their Humanity score.
Blood Potency A statistic called Blood Potency dictates the strength of a vampire's abilities. Higher Blood Potency provides numerical advantages to Discipline rolls and healing rates. However, it also imposes dietary restrictions; characters with high Blood Potency cannot reduce their Hunger by consuming animal blood or preserved human blood, requiring them to feed directly from live humans.

Online sessions are currently full, we are looking for 4 players for Play by Post. 🩸Brussels is the capital of Europe. To the mortals, it’s a surreal maze. To the Camarilla, it’s a gilded cage. The year is 2016. Prince Vermeulen has wiped the court floor clean to make room for a fresh generation of neonates. You arrive in the City with a target on your back, drafted into a game you don’t yet understand. Here, your word carries weight, and your loyalty to the Camarilla is your only shield — for now. Beyond the polished marble of the European Quarter, older factions and darker mysteries are waiting. Every alliance has a price. Every secret is a weapon. Your actions will test your Humanity and shape the City. Your failures will shape your execution. How long will you navigate the corridors of power? Will you rise in the City of Wastrels or vanish from records and memories? Brussels is watching, and Brussels remembers. - Vampire: The Masquerade 5th edition. Mature audience, adults only. - Play by Post starts at 5.99 EUR/month via ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/hiddenson/tiers - Beginners welcome, LGBTQ+ and kink friendly.

Heyo, I'm Bo, 30 and queer. Been playing DND since 2019 ish, haven't had the chance to explore other systems and DND somehow always seems the easiest to find a game for. I only recently decided to try voice games as I've been playing through live text usually. Critical Role is what got me into dnd and rpg stuff but I've been loving Bards of New York lately, and when I say lately it's been over a year of constantly watching their stuff. Other than that I love Witcher, Dragon Age, Skyrim obviously, fantasy is my main genre I think, though I like watching sci fi movies and shows. Bioshock Infinite is another game I love, and I love horror media, just not a fan of slashers and very gore focused things, which is why Mike Flanagan's stuff is my favorite but also I say that and yet zombie media is also something I enjoy so lmao. I usually prefer RP over combat but I figured combat can be very useful to test your creativity and problem solving as well, just not looking to solely be focused on that. I'm in the gmt+2 timezone, usually prefer evening games in my time and currently Saturday evenings are occupied by me DM-ing. I would also like to add that I have a pretty old laptop and I'm pretty sure most if not all VTTs just don't work on it, if that's a must for games. Also also, not looking for play by post games, honestly I'd just stay glued to my phone and that's just not something I need in my life heh.

Spott
Hello there! My (online) name is Spott, and I go by they/them or he/him.  I'm an adult, but a decently young one, and would prefer to play in a group of a similar age range (18-25). ‼️Important‼️  I have no interest in games that involve the use of generative AI in anyway! Do not message me if you use AI for your game!!!  Or if you intend to allow players to. I have a decent amount of experience with ttrpgs in general, mainly D&D, but none with the two I'm looking for; Vampire The Masquerade and Lancer (which I recognize have very different vibes XD). For Vtm, I have some rulebooks for V5 and would say I'm decently familiar with it. I've played around with creating a few characters, and have read the books quite throughly, so I don't think I'd need too much help. I just may ask a few questions here and there. For Lancer, well, I have the rulebook. I've started to read it, but I haven't gotten that far. Joining a game would definitely encourage me to read more though, and I'd probably be able to finish it before the first session (I'm a pretty fast reader). Rulebook aside, I do have a little bit of knowledge about the rules, since I've been watching people stream it, but I'll certainly need a decent amount of help- even after I finish reading the book. My schedule is currently free but it will be changing shortly, however I should be free basically every day in the evenings (after 6pm EST). The only day I'm for sure not available is Sunday, since I have a campaign that day. I prefer to play on Discord, no camera as I currently don't have a working webcam.

Heyo, new to WoD at large.  Staunchly loyal to game times/other meetings.  Chomping at the bit for Kindred of The East especially. My first ever WoD game had fizzled out because other players were not confident in the DM's skills and my issue is I really wanted to play the character I made, but the issue lies in the fact this one is a niche within a niche. I enjoy heavy roleplay and charachter interactions, but a bit of combat here and there to spice things up.  I'm just here for the drama of it all, and down for whatever shenanigans take place.

Untitled Game is a Dungeons & Dragons actual play podcast and the premise is pretty simple: A group of strangers crash lands on a remote tropical island and survival instinct quickly kicks in. The deeper they go into the jungle, the stranger things get—old cave paintings, impossible storms, things whisper threats in the dark. It’s played pretty loose and natural—no actors, no heavy editing polish—just a group of nerds leaning into the creepy weirdness and seeing where the story goes. Sometimes tense, sometimes funny, occasionally very bad decisions, always a bunch of cursing. If you’re into: slow-burn mystery horror with a weird edge tabletop actual play that feels more like a late-night campfire story …you might just enjoy it. Join our survivors as they peel back the layers of a mystery where every choice matters - and one wrong step might just be their last.
