Vampire: The Dark Ages

So it’d be cool if I knew how to change the text besides using italic and bold.

Anyways, I’m a role player gamer. I usually stick with video game console games, MAYBE the occasional pc game, but I do play Dungeons and Dragons and Vampire.

Dungeons and Dragons should be self explanatory. Choose a mythical creature (or human), make a character, hack and slash your have through your GM’s campaign.

Vampire is a bit different. I’m sure it’s not as well known to the general public. I had never heard of it for a LONG time.
So, Vampire is split up into two eras most of the time. The Dark Ages and The Masquerade. Believe me, they have a snes load of books for both of them. IF anybody wants to correct me, feel free too. ^^

In the Dark Ages era I recently joined up with, the group is at the convention that is creating the Camerella, who’s the “main government” for vampires in the Masquerade Age (modern day). The hilarious thing is, they’re trying to change history.
Make the Camerella fall before they even start, etc.

My character in all this is a Gangrel* named William Caedmon, a Scotsman that was embraced (turned into a hellish, souless creature that is a vampire) after he single handedly killed a group of bandits that raided his farm and killed his family and most farm hands.

*A Gangrel is a clan of vampires that are “in tune to nature” and that every time they frenzy (go all angry and powerful) they gain an animal features. The other clans have special powers as well, but I’ll explain them at a later time. XD

Willie, and if you pick up on the Simpsons’ reference, good for you, was basically told: “Guard the Camerella convention or die.” Guess which one I chose! 😀

I was stuck there for a year. According to Willie, it sucked. His fellow Gangrel believed the same thing, but generally wanted to get out of there. There was a Bruhah that loved the idea of the Camerella, but that’s a WHOLE another post! XD

While on duty, he came across a group of wagons that were transporting “entertainment” for the convention, several Assamites (pretty much the assassins of vampires). He didn’t care, since they never did anything to him.

Eventually, the convention comes around, and I get assigned to guard/spy on the codery of King Maxim, from the east. Needless to say, they treated Willie ALOT better than the Camerella did. XD

Anyways, I know this wasn’t an “action packed” post, but I thought it was interesting. I’ll do at least a couple of more, probably describing the Clans, and if it gets enough yays, then I’ll do some more. XD

I’ll be heading to church camp Monday and won’t get back til Saturday. Oh, the irony of this blog! XD
Hopefully something magically happen then all of a sudden make this blog awesome while I’m gone.
Hey, I can wish!
