Description

From publisher blurb:

Cleveland By Night is an introductory setting and sandbox campaign for Vampire: the Maquerade 20th Anniversary Edition. Cleveland, OH is a city that's overlooked by mortals because it's not big enough to attract much attention and not central enough to anything to be necessary. In Kindred circles, Cleveland has become a place that's been blacklisted by everyone because no news comes out of the city that isn't a lie. No sect claims control, and no sect wants to. What's actually going on in Cleveland is a small reflection of the chaos and interaction between sects, locked into county borders,

Every resident of Cleveland is hiding their true identity, and doesn't want to be found out. Some are hiding from a blood hunt, others are learning to infiltrate sects. Each vampire here knows that each other vampire is hiding something, and taking notes, waiting until someone slips up enough to be exposed.

Inside are tools and suggestions to help new players learn about VtM's complex political structures by playing with all of them in a single city. This doesn't mean the players will be overwhelmed, as the city's residents often are running on minimal info themselves, and doing their best to fake their position. Experienced players will enjoy being able to pick out the clues and hints on who an NPC is and what they really know, and playing less commonly found clans and bloodlines.

New Storytellers will find some helpful content on how to run a game driven by the player's choices while keeping them connected to bigger things happening in the city. Experienced STs will appreciate ways to keep planning and paperwork minimized in gameplay, and being able to use all the clans and sects at once during a campaign.
