Sebastian here\, your storyteller for this descent into New Orleans’ darker corners. Last time\, we walke d the city as Hunters. Now\, on Sunday nights\, we step into the night as Kindred\, seeing the Big Easy through the eyes of the damned.🌑 New Orle ans\, 1931The Masquerade strains. Power shifts like the waters of Lake Pon tchartrain before a storm. The herds grow restless\, good feeding grows sc arce\, and the city’s balance teeters under hard times and harder rivals .And now you’ve been summoned to fix it.Prince Doran calls you to addres s a new threat: a street preacher turned sorcerer\, clawing for power thro ugh forgotten rites best left buried. His aim is simple and catastrophic: burn New Orleans down… again. Someone among the Cainites is helping him\ ; the pattern of disappearances makes that clear. Kindred vanishes one by one\, along with the Prince’s political assets. A newly signed treaty bi nds his hands\, leaving the investigation to you.🎭 Politics • Treatie s • Corruption • DebaucheryA playground for those who know how to move through the dark and how to survive those who move better. This chronicle will run for eight sessions\, following your hand‑picked coterie as you trace the source of the city’s unraveling.🕯️ Folklore\, History\, and the Bayou’s Unvarnished TruthsAs before\, this campaign draws deeply from Louisiana folklore\, real historical events\, and the lived experien ces of those who called the bayou home. Expect a blend of fact and fiction \, lingering stories that are still in the dark. We remain in the thick of the Great Depression\, and the setting brings mechanical adjustments to b etter reflect the era. These changes will be discussed and negotiated duri ng Session 0.⚠️ Warning sensitive content Because this chronicle touc hes on difficult periods in New Orleans history\, themes may become heavy or emotionally intense.
