From publisher blurb:
"Listen to them, the children of the night.
What music they make!"
- Count Dracula
Dracula, by Bram Stoker
Vampires are fascinating monsters for the are the heroes as often as the villain. There can be something romantic about them, or mysterious.
Or, horrifying & monstrous.
The vampires that inhabit your game can run the gamut of styles & types.
Kith & Kin: Vampires introduces the blood sucking fiends into any of your Brains & Brawn SSTTRPS games. Should the heroes be tracking down the evil beast just outside of a frontier town? Is the ship recently arrived in orbit & ignoring all radio calls crawling with monsters in the shadows? Or are the, players, themselves, vampires living their (un)lives in a world that does not know they exist?
"That morning I was not yet a vampire, & I saw my last sunrise. I remember it completely, & yet I can't recall any sunrise before it. I watched the whole magnificence of the dawn for the last time as if it were the first. & then I said farewell to sunlight, & set out to become what I became."
