Welcome to Unhinged Humanity and Chicago Under Siege,
a Vampire the Masquerade Games.
"I have struck a city- a real city - and they call it Chicago... I urgently desire never to see it again. It is inhabited by savages"
- Richard Kipling
**** As of June 15, 2010 Some parts of this website may look incomplete and not done.. this is because they aren't. If you want to know a mass majority of the NPCS in Chicago, we're taking them RIGHT out of the Chicago Book... Some additions will be lurking around too and the plotlines will be slightly adjusted/altered etc... because my brand of Loco is just more special then White Wolf back in 1992 before all their delightful 3rd Edition changes! Please just step over the mess and ask EXTRA questions!****
Game Introduction:
Welcome to a darker world of our own. This is a world of darkness, where everything is a bit darker, a bit more dirty then our own. In this world, Vampires, Werewolves and other creatures of myth roam the world with an abandon that causes mortals to become Hunters themselves.
It is in this world we are living, the year is 1993. This is a time before cellphones and the great internet is still in it's infantcy. There are no PDA's, no cellphones, No 9-11's, Hurricane Katrina's.. but in the vampire communities there are signs of the end times- signs of Gehenna... Signs that stir anicent elders from their sleep and cause them to stir once more in the politics of the younger generations.
It is here your characters will find their roots and grow to flourish, perhaps for a time, in the moonlight. This is a tale, both of personal horror, and of discovery. Of the Meaning of Humanity and having something worth fighting for- though who, what and where those things are, are up to you, and your characters to decide.

Current Storyline For Unhinged Humanity, Saturday June 26, 2010 at 6:00PM Moreno Valley, CA (Live)
In a few days time, on Feb 14 (in game, June 26th out) Prince Modius (The Prince of Gary, Indiana) has invited you and a few select others to a Valentines Day Party at the only Elyisum (Safe House.) Only the unwise do not think this is for innocent purposes, after all, this is a world of darkness, and even the shadows have layers.
Will you submit your R.S.V.P to Prince Modius?
This game is designed for both beginning and experienced players. It will focus on more of the building blocks of what makes a Kindred a Kindred and the Different sects and choices.
Current Storyline For Chicago Under Siege, Sunday, June 27, 2010 6:30PM OpenRPG or AIM (Online)
In a few days time, on Feb 14th (in Game, June 27th out) Ballard, the owner of the Succubus club has invited all of the up and coming Kindred to the club to celebrate Valentine's Day. It's a masquarde ball to be held in all the grand and traditional style with a special guest to perform. It promises to be a grand affair that even Prince Lodin has decided to attend- and perhaps he will hold an impromptu court. Not going will offend Ballard, the Ventrue Primogen, as well as Prince Lodin...
Will you submit your R.S.V.P. to Primogen Ballard?
This game is designed for more intermediate and advanced players of VtM and will focus on the buildling blocks of a good Camarillia city and the political crisises that often face a place so vibrant as Chicago. Beginners are welcome to play in this game as well- but it won't be as helpful for beginning things as the Unhinged Humanity game.
