Week 9: It's time for Week Nine!

Hi everyone,

This is your newly elected secretary, Elly Brine speaking. Thank you all for voting for me instead of RON. I've never met him personally but he seems pretty fully of himself so I'm glad he didn't get the job. Also, this is my first time doing this and I'm trying really hard not to mess up. If I do, I'm very sorry.

So, onwards to glory!

Isles of Darkness - York (From Hannah Bridgeman)

We are a national New World of Darkness roleplaying society, with shared continuity across all games in all cities. As of March/April a new chronicle is starting, and York will be running Vampire: the Requiem and Changeling: the Lost as part of this. The society also holds national games every six months, and periodic weekend games which are over 2-3 days (Requiem has one scheduled in York next spring). If anyone is interested in joining either game could they please email Hannah Bridgeman at York.Requiem.LST [at] islesofdarkness [dot] com

Vampire

This has been running a few months in the new chronicle already. Vampire is a fairly political game also containing other elements, centred around the city of York, with some plots taking place around the region, in Hull and Bradford. Current plots include investigations into a Masquerade breach, finding adoptive sires for young and naive vampires, and implementing the treaty signed in Glasgow last weekend. Manchester also run a monthly Requiem game and there is definite crossover between the two, with the York game getting visitors every month.

Changeling

This is slated to start in the next couple of months. It will be a game of setting up a Barony to start with, as in the National Setting the Freehold of the North covers the entire region, and is divided into Baronies with elected Baron and possible council. As some players are new to the game, it will start off with fairly light plot, which should allow the exploration of the local Hedge and meeting with some local NPCs. Doncaster are starting a Lost game around the same time as us, with a 'Steampunk' styling behind it, and we are told to expect visitors from there.
