Lords of the Dead is our home-made version of an elder Vampire game. We employ a mix of official-choice rules and some of our own. Below we present a description of PCs, NPCs, places of interest and setting details. Everything placed here is of an optional nature. Aspects of the game might change according to the player's particular choices and preferences.

PCs

Pakor, the Seed

Samuz

Taru, the Dragon Slayer

SETTING

In this version of the World of Darkness, several ancient secrets are accessible to the player characters, given their age and experience. The world has been deeply affected by supernatural presence, and mortal life is heavily influenced by dark plots and immortal needs. This is mostly apparent when mortal existence is confronted by the ever-growing concerns of neonates and ancillae, those who control directly the mundane ways of the world. But what about the truly ancient secrets of history? What about the Methuselahs and their titanic expectations?

Surely their own agendas would change the world in unpredictable and tremendous ways… Many of the things we’re about to present are the result of centuries of hidden history, in which the most ancient and powerful creatures of darkness attempted to adapt to a reality far too frail and delicate to accommodate their conflicts and power games. Some represent the lost and hidden history of the supernatural races, others are simply the remnants of old experiments, others yet are novelties brought up by the awakening of the ancients. Most of them are fabled among younger and less experienced members of each race, spoken in hushed tones in courts around the globe. One thing they have in common, though: all of them belong to the collective unconsciousness that crowd men’s nightmares since the dawn of time.
