From the Back of the Box:
A Beast I Am, Lest a Beast I Become
The Masquerade is a revolutionary storytelling game of live-action roleplaying. It is a type of improvisational theatre in which you assume the role of a vampire. You play out our character's actions, invent your own lines, and experience the dark passions of your tortured alter ego. Costumes and props are optional, its your imagination that matters. The rules are elegantly simple, and allow you to resolve conflicts quickly and easily, without stepping out of character. Though luck always plays a role, no dice or charts are involved.
Designed for 5 to 15 people (or even more), it's a party game like you've never seen before.
