world of darkness

Beneath the glittering dome of black and white sparkly bullshit, the sunlight of Earth failed to quite reach ground in the beautiful city of San Francisco. Oh, it still lit everything up, and plants still grew, but the sun-ness of the light was filtered out before it got anywhere close to the...

You're about to die, and you can't wait. It's been five years since you discovered the dark underbelly of Boston. Five years since your regnant, your soon-to-be sire, found you and blessed you with the blood. Five years you've spent being prepared for this night, the night when you shed the...

New Dawn 1.1 You stand in a garden. The ground is covered in obsidian roses, their petals shimmering with an unearthly pearlescence—neither light nor dark, but something in between. The air is thick with the scent of decay, yet there's an oddly comforting serenity here. In the distance, a...

...I'll admit, I did brace for a lot of possible things to be waiting for me at that police station. This... that was not what I was expecting. Ok, ok, let's back up and start from square one. The year is 2009, in Mandela County, WI, USA. It's just around dawn, there's a chill in the air, the...

I punch Edward from behind and he barely notices the hit. He staggers for just a moment before he whirls around to face me and I see the Rage bubble inside him, his sclera turning golden as his beast tries to lash out. But even in his rage Edward was a born warrior and he leashed his rage from...

Prologue: I Wish It Was The Batman Leaning nervously on the side of a dark blue Toyota Corolla from eighteen years ago, a highschooler named Julius Montgomory shifted nervously. He glanced at the slightly opened trunk, and then dragged his attention away from it. Anything to keep his mind off...

Okay, so this is an idea that's been bouncing around my head for a bit now, but I'm incapable of putting it down on paper. The lack of a keyboard and a livid hate for touchscreen typing being key factors in it. So I'm jotting it all down here the hard and frustrating way before I lose my train...

This fic doesn't explicitly mark sections with Sex, Violence, or Suicide This is only because Almost every single update will contain one of the three. It delves into suicidal ideation, kink, mental illness, and extreme emotional violence to one's self, and others. That said, these are the...

Fallout of the World of Darkness A post-apocalyptic shard Premises War. War never changes. The 21st century saw humanity careening to what seemed like final destruction. The fossil fuels and other resources who had propelled the industrial revolution forwards were slowly but surely expended...

Hello, SV. In 2022, I started a thread called Beat Still, My Great American Heart - a Quest taking place from the perspective of a Nosferatu neonate in Chicago as described by the 5th Edition of Vampire: The Masquerade. While that chronicle has been in torpor since I joined the workforce, I...

I would be lying if I said that dying wasn't that bad. Sure, the constant pain and detachment from the body thanks to drugs was now gone, a balm on my soul that I never thought I would have, especially not in my right mind. Lung cancer was a bitch, especially because breathing was sorta...

Headlights from his car push back the night on an empty forest road. Bouncing to the tune of the potholes as his car rattles around him, Elio is silent with his eyes focused on shapes beyond the spotlight the headlight provides him. He spares a glance at his phone down on the console, "your...

I was an impish child, my days filled with whimsy and wonder, reflected in my almost faerie-like appearance. Unlike my mom or dad, I was as pale as snow, though I did share their red hair, my gray eyes completely unlike any of either of their families. I’m sure that, if my dad was a more jealous...

A clarion note shatters stillness. The Hunt is Called. A small white rabbit blurs through thick tangles of underbrush. The only sign of its passage was a thin trail of pale white luminescence slowly dissolving into motes of silver light. Laboriously and ungainly you pursue, the fluttering...

So, this is technically my second quest, but when I wrote the first one I only got a few chapters in before I realized that my writing quality was horrible and stopped. This was quite some time ago and I believe that I have a better grasp of the English language now than I did back then, but...

Behind you, the voice only the Resurrectionist could hear whispered in her ear and she slid her hand in her pocket, weaving a mote of mana to merge the rings of Kassiterum, Perfected tin, on her right hand into a set of studded knuckles, harder than anything other than Siderite, not the alloy...

"-and there is an unprecedented boon of Blood Beads thanks to Io so the Provisional Government is less hoarding them and more trying to hand out as many as they can, but it's been a little overwhelming to say the least, not really a problem per say…" Louis said, stroking his chin as he looked...

I can feel the cold air enter my lungs as I breathe, it's taken me years to get everything, and as I look at the various cursed and Sacred items in my possession, I can only hope they're enough. The world that I'm headed to is nothing more than a playground for the abominations that I've gotten...

It is the 20th century, and tensions in Europe are rising. It was clear that day to the leaders of Europe that a war would happen. The French still earned for territory lost to the Prussians, the Prussians wanted to expand their territory, the British were worried about the new fleet being built...

I'm actually writing a Demon Slayer and Vampire the Masquerade story. As it's not something I can't link here I won't. However I was referred here to talk about Vampires. I've made Nezuko a Toreador Vampire and I want to keep her at humanity rating of 8. Nezuko has only been a vampire for two...

You don't know what it is you're doing here. Not just in this rundown room. Not just in this shitty motel. In LA. Twenty-eight hundred miles from anything resembling home. No money, no food, no prospects, no plan. You got nothing. Nothing at all. A rat crawls across the room. It knows...

Inko stepped out of her bedroom, glancing at the couch and heaved a sigh at the lump lying on it, arm draped across his face. Walking to the kitchen of the apartment, she started the electric kettle before walking back to him. Held in one hand, dangling from it and over the couch, was a...

On one hand, we have the noble Ventrue. According to them, they are the noble rulers of Kindred society. If you listen to most others, they are the blueblooded nobles looking down upon the low clans. Yet perhaps their ideas of superiority are correct, as much of the known world falls under the...

Flickering neon, pounding music and thrumming vibration is tonight's full, ecstatic feeling. The punk-metal scream of a band lost to time and obscurity elsewhere in the world is fully engaged here, lifting the crowd from merely energetic to practically animalistic. Somewhere in the listless...

"And sin, young man, is when you treat people as things." ― Terry Pratchett The world is a crueler place than most people know. Those with too much ambition and no conscience to restrain them make common cause with each other, forming conspiracies that lurk in the shadows or hide in...
