Interest Check: New World of Darkness First Edition RP

So, who would be interested in a wide-open sandbox RP based off of the first editions of White Wolf's New World of Darkness RPG's?

We'd use the following gamelines....

Vampire: The Requiem
Werewolf: The Forsaken
Mage: The Awakening
Promethean: The Created
Changeling: The Lost
Hunter: The Vigil
Geist: The Sin-Eaters
Mummy: The Curse


The Second Edition gamelines Demon: The Descent and Beast: The Primordial would NOT be in play and we would not be using the Second Edition rules. There will be two major modifications in Vampire: The Requiem, in that vampires are no longer automatically emotionally dead, and the Strix do not exist in this RP. For now, we will only be using materials found in the corebooks for simplicity's sake. But I may add more supplementary First Edition material as we go along.

The idea I had for the setting is that it is a tribute to the old monster movies of the mid-20th Century (think Universal Horror and Hammer Horror) and would most likely be set in the 1950s and early 1960s in the fictional East Coast city of Empire Bay. (If more realism is demanded, I can set it in either Boston or New York City).

Would anyone be interested?
 
While I dimly recall most of these games. I would love to play.

Edit: That being said Vampire, Vampire, Vaaaaaampire. Maybe Changeling, but Vampire!

Okay, so how re you planning to deal with certain powers having downright weird interactions with other powers? If you want, I can link you to the Accord Addenda, which is a compliation of rules and tweaks to allow most splats to play nicely with each other.

That being said, Changelings and Prometheans have some incredibly useful powers in their splatbooks that aren't in the core book, like Spellbound Autumn or Spiritus.
 
I would love to check out the Accord Addenda. I'm mostly only familiar with Vampire, and a little bit of Changeling, so that would be very helpful.
 
They needed to nerf mages.

I would be very very intrested in playing any splat, but by far my favorite to play would be a giest, I have a particular I have wanted to play for ages.
 
As you mentioned the hamemr monster mashup, how are you aiming at dealing with the social structure of the supernatural comunitys and how some of them clearly have commitments there (Forsaken, Changelings)

To be honest, I have not figured that out just yet, but I will. Worst-case scenario, I may end up making this a Vampire: The Requiem RP and have the other monsters simply be major NPC's. Not sure yet.
