Welcome to the Vampire Wild West.

In 1706, when Albuquerque was founded as the Spanish colonial outpost of Ranchos de Alburquerque, the Camarilla was there. A Prince was raised, Prince Alouicious St. Amant, of the Toreador. He ruled with a beautiful but iron fist until 2008, when his power and authority were undercut by Ventrue, and he was deposed for Timothy Smith.

Naturally, Clan Toreador did not take well to having their Prince and prestige so abused. Thanks to a well timed Sabbat invasion that had Timothy hunkered safely in his haven, he missed out on the manuevering of his political enemies, and lost his position due to cowardice and conniving in 2009.

Toreador wrenched back their City into the hands of Prince Allison Brightlight, who ruled with a loving but iron fist until 2010, supported by Clan Nosferatu, when she lost her pretty head.

Who better to pick up the reign of an embattled, divided city? Brujah. A self-claimed Ancilla who went only by the name Bernard, announced himself with the support of Clan Tremere and surprisingly, Clan Toreador. As these were the only clans with Primogen left in the city, there was no dissent.

However, too little too late. With the prolonged assault of the Sabbat and unfortunate breaks in the Masquerade, Albuquerque has become a fertile hunting ground for Hunters. Tremere have withdrawn to the safety of far off Chantries, until order can be restored. But will it be? Because in these nights, Prince Bernard and the Toreador Primogen have disappeared. Have they fled? Are they dead? No one knows.

Will someone rise up to this doomed Princedom and restore order? Will the Sabbat take hold? Will Hunters prevail in wiping the undead from the streets?

Will this be your Kindred's shot at living in freedom without the threat of a Sect to curtail your nightly moves?

There is no law in Albuquerque right now, except what you can call your own.

-The main theme of the game is to have fun. This is a co-operative story game and fun should go both ways it should be fun for the vamp staff as well as the vamp players. The secondary theme is a heavily political vampire game where the struggle with your humanity is paramount. The idea will to be hold court on a monthly basis, with a strong npc backing.
+Welcome to the Vampire Wild West.
-As for the focus on humanity, and politics, we imagine a game where the PC struggles to maintain their humanity while being assaulted with orders by the Elders who want you to do things they can't do themselves. The struggle to maintain who you are under peer pressure, essentially. Some will be lost. Some will pick sides. Some will hope to avoid picking sides. Some will hope they can play both sides. In the end the choice comes down to each individual vampire, each individual player, and those choices will have a profound effect.

-In a world that fights so hard to be static, can you be the change or will too just be swallowed up? An intensely personal game, where choices make a real difference.
