RPG: In VtM’s ‘Live From The Succubus Club’ Fame Is The *Real* Immortality
Undeath is nice, but if you really want to live forever, fame is the only way that matters. As Vampire’s Live from the Succubus Club shows.
This one’s for all you Toreadors out there. Renegade Games announced a new sourcebook for Vampire: the Masquerade that deals with fame, stardom, and all those other things that make the Ventrue and anyone else overly preoccupied with “keeping the Masquerade” pinch the bridge of their nose as they feel their blood pressure rise and think, wait, that shouldn’t be possible.
In Live From The Succubus Club, you’ll find out that fame and stardom aren’t all they’re cracked up to be – they’re so much more.
Live From The Succubus Club – Coming Soon For VtM
Look, they may as well have made this book for me, specifically, but I guess since the rest of you are here, we may as well talk about it. This is the be a “rockstar vampire” sourcebook. It was designed for the theater kid at your table, especially the one who made musical theater their whole personality.
Personally, I love it, even if it does hit a little too close to home with the idea that opens it: “As Kindred society crumbles…” – like, does every society need to be crumbling right now? Well, no escaping it, even in your escapism. Be that as it may, this book looks cool. It’s full of rules for making your own band, musician, nomad, or entertainer character, and balancing stardom with the Masquerade.
“As Kindred society crumbles, many young licks turn to the mortal world for comfort and succor. Among the kine, the powers of the Blood grant them advantages in obtaining fame and fortune, if they can dodge the Second Inquisition, Sabbat, and Kindred aiming to quash every threat to the Masquerade. How far will you go to make a name for yourself? Seek out the limelight, get on stage, and make music that’ll touch the souls of the living and the dead!
Live from the Succubus club helps you portray Kindred entertainers or nomads: aspiring rockstars or any other type of vampire chasing Fame or belonging among the kine. Travel between mortal cities and Kindred domains. Open your own Succubus Club or imitate it. Play with mortals, or use them to slake your Hunger. Make a name for yourself among the living and the dead!
Specifically you’ll get 11 new merits, 9 new flaws, and 7 new Discipline Powers, as well as a host of guidance for attracting attention to yourself. As you might well imagine, the book is also packed full of lore and new NPCs, including writeups on other Kindred who move and shake in the entertainment industry. You’ll also find advice for using the titular Succubus Club in your chronicles, or making your own nightclub or other seedy establishment.
On top of that, you’ll also get Sound and Fury, a music-focused chronicle (6 scenarios). Tour in Berlin, Vienna, and Paris, and navigate through the challenges of the locals, rival domains, and more. You can find all of this in the new sourcebook when it comes out, or preorder at the link below.
Look for Live From The Succubus Club in March!
