Coming soon from White Wolf, a custom content creation channel.

It’s time to break out the Cure albums, grab some black nail polish, and keep an eye out for draculas, because White Wolf has just announced a new program for the World of Darkness.

Called the Storyteller’s Vault, this DMs Guild-esque program will allow players to create and distribute their own content for the World of Darkness. Currently their plans are to go forward with resources and support for Vampire (in all four extant editions), though it seems inevitable that the rest of the World of Darkness should open up soon.

Of particular interest are the resources they’ll be providing for aspiring creators, be they writers, artists, or designers. Mentioned in the announcement are various trespasses, and accompanying the news was a link to the Vampire: The Masquerade style guide, which is a quick guide to tone and style throughout the editions. White Wolf will be keeping an eye out for quality content, and are giving their community the tools to create pdfs that would be at home in any player’s collection.

It’s always exciting to see a company engage with its audience like this–you can find some truly unique adventures, etc. through the DM’s Guild, and especially given Vampire’s popularity, I think it’ll be interesting to see what exactly comes from it. Read on for full details.

For more than two decades, World of Darkness fans have aspired to join the ranks of White Wolf’s content creators, and now they can. The Storytellers Vault is White Wolf’s community content creation program where writers, designers and artists get to share their works with the world. The Storytellers Vault program will offer no less than ten different templates designed to look and feel just like a White Wolf product available on the shelf from past eras. This is the perfect time to pull out your old notes on that unique Bloodline you created or to write up your own chronicle as a By Night. You provide the ideas – we provide the tools.

 

The Storytellers Vault program will begin with access to create fiction and tabletop supplements for Vampire: The Masquerade (all four existing editions), and will then expand in the future to include historical settings, other game lines and Minds Eye Theatre. In addition to being able to create and share your own Vampire: The Masquerade material, the Storytellers Vault will let you set a price for your product and sell it. You will in turn keep 50% of the revenue from that sale.

While material in the Storytellers Vault is not considered canonical, White Wolf will be keeping a keen eye out for truly exceptional content.

When they say storytellers they mean storytellers–world’s of fiction can be included alongside gaming material, allowing for a further exploration of the world of darkness.

It’s only a matter of time before someone tries to sneak Twilight into Vampire, though.
