Dispatch II

The Rules

System

Vampire: the Masquerade — Fifth Edition. We use the corebook by default; supplement material introduced per arc and announced before play.

Character creation

Characters are made ahead of time, in a session-zero with the storyteller. Bring concept, clan preference, and a shape of a Touchstone. Sheets, Hunger, Convictions, and full Predator Type are finalised together. Every character is logged in your account here once approved.

Permadeath

Final death is on the table from the first scene. Torpor is final death's cousin and equally permanent in narrative weight. Bring a character you would mourn.

The table

Three to four players per mission. Sessions run in commission, in person where possible. Lateness costs scenes; absence forfeits the seat to whoever is next on the interest list.

Safety

X-card and lines & veils are in effect. Anything off-limits goes on the list before play begins; the storyteller will not test it.

The Masquerade (out of character)

What happens at the table belongs to the table. The wider story published on the site and channel uses character names only — never your own.
