New Haven:

Despite its humble and utterly unimaginative name, New Haven is a bevy of East Coast aristocracy, old money, and those pretenders fortunate enough to have had some initiation into the ranks of the blue bloods and true high society. Only an hour's drive North of New York City, and yet, this small community seems like almost another world. This is largely due to the level of seclusion that the residents of New Haven enjoy and, as an unspoken rule, maintain. For it is here that the rich can enjoy their decadence without the awkward intrusion of "new money", blood-sucking journalists, or the poor. With its yacht parties, flourishing night-life, and isolation from the rest of the world, New Haven seems almost a paradise.

And perhaps that was what attracted sir Phillipe Leon Domingo Marques de Vallado. Building his expansive home on a, dwarfing many in size, opulence, and splendor. And yet not much has been seen of the Marques since his arrival.

No. In fact, the Marques has kept quite to himself causing no small amount of curiosity amongst the locals. So much so, in fact, that when he sent out invitations, seemingly out of the blue, not a single family invited dared miss the opportunity to attend what would, without a doubt, be the most talked about dinner party of the month.

Characters:

Marques Phillipe Leon Domingo- Spanish nobility, the Marques has made his home in New Haven. Nobody is quite sure what to make of him. In this game, he is a man of unknown means and an unverifiable origin who is both handsome, charming, frightening, and a vampire. His power is immense.

The Nine To Be Embraced- These nine have been chosen to be the Marques's children of the night, though they do not know it yet. Most of their families, along with many others, have been invited to attend Sir Phillipe's dinner party and they all know each other, in some capacity, either through school or through their parents or perhaps other parties. They each were chosen for their unique characteristics, and the embrace will effect each uniquely. These are Player Characters.

Count Dante Escobar- A strange, though exorbitantly rich, eccentric who claims that the dead walk among us and that they will damn our children. He is considered to be mostly harmless, and many locals listen to his wild tales to pacify the funny fellow. Whether or not he is really a count is the cause of much debate.

The Wayward Children- These children seem to have been caught up in strange currents around them. Something very strange is happening, but they are not quite sure what. Perhaps they believe the Count and his stories or perhaps they observe a change in one of their friends, who seems to no longer come out during the day. Maybe they simply do not trust the Marques. Whatever the case may be, they have some inkling as to the dangerous waters in which they swim. Some will die, some will hunt the children of the night, and still others will turn against their own kind and serve the vampires in hopes of earning the eternal gift for themselves. Their fate is in your hands.

FAQ:

Q: Do I have to be a human?
A: There are a few spots left for vampires, and his/her potential powers and personality are somewhat prefabricated, though his past and your play-style determines a lot as well.

Q: Really?
A: Well, yes... as the story goes on, there may be more vampires later, but... as of the moment, this is story.

Q: Really?
A: Yes! Stop that!

Game Details:

The game begins at the dinner party. No one is aware of the Marques's Vampiric nature, and no one has any reason to be ill at ease. Moreover, all the vampire characters have not yet been turned and have never met Sir Phillipe. At the beginning of the game, all Vampire powers will be at the lowest of levels. They will grow more powerful as the game goes on, and only if it makes sense. The humans, who have varying histories, may be at the dinner party as well, or they may be elsewhere, if they so choose. It is sun down, and the guests are just arriving. They are met at the front door by a butler and led into a sitting room where they are offered the finest of refreshments.

This rp is largely based on Vampire: the Masquerade, with some notable differences. If you are familiar with that game, then all the better. but don't think that it is exactly the same.

Here's the OOC!
