For a limited time, pre-orders will come with a PDF copy of the Vampire: The Masquerade Cults of the Blood Gods Sourcebook at no additional cost. Any order cancellation involving a free PDF will only refund the price of the physical book minus the price of the PDF.

Mature Content Warning: contains graphic and written content of a mature nature, including violence, sexual themes, and strong language. Reader discretion is advised.

When you have already experienced death, why have faith?

If you accept that you and everyone like you is cursed by God, why cling to His word?

When you return from the other side as a blood-drinking monster, what purpose serves belief?

Kindred build and are drawn to faiths for myriad reasons. The exertion of power over a flock. Satisfying their Hunger and their Beasts. Elevation of the self. Reassurance of the possibility of redemption. A grand plan they forged or that wasbestowed upon them by secret masters.

While some vampire cults span the globe hiding in plain sight, others are fringefaiths with morbid practices and ancient conspiracies lasting centuries. Others suchas the incestuous Clan of Death and the malignant Church of Set — arguably the largest vampire cults of all — believe in a destiny that will enable them to impose their wills on the world of the living and the dead.

Whether for power, salvation, or transcendence, all Kindred cults wallow in blood. They shed it in sacrifice, demand it of their followers, and exalt in it in unholybaptisms proclaiming their divine glories. These cults dedicated to blood gods are among the most insidious, damning sects of Kindred, and tonight they approach their apex of power.

White Wolf and Modiphius Announce Partnership for Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition https://www.tabletopgamingnews.com/white-wolf-and-modiphius-announce-partnership-for-vampire-the-masquerade-5th-edition/ https://www.tabletopgamingnews.com/white-wolf-and-modiphius-announce-partnership-for-vampire-the-masquerade-5th-edition/#respond Tue, 24 Apr 2018 15:49:00 +0000 https://tabletopgamingnewscom.bigscoots-staging.com/?p=633 Vampire: The Masquerade is one of those venerable titles in gaming. You might not hear it quite as often as some others, but it’s withstood the test of time and is played by many all over the world. As such, it’s pretty big news when a new edition of it is looking to hit the streets. And that’s just what’s happening this year. The 5th edition will be coming out due to a partnership between White Wolf and Modiphius.

From the announcement:

White Wolf Entertainment, creators of the World of Darkness and Vampire: The Masquerade, is partnering with Modiphius Entertainment to distribute Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition (V5) worldwide in English.

Vampire: The Masquerade, the classic that changed role-playing games forever, returns in a fifth edition! V5 features a streamlined and modern rules design, beautiful new full-color art, and a rich story experience for new and returning players. Powered by the innovative Hunger cycle, the game also includes rules for creating system supported character coteries, Loresheets to directly involve players with their favorite parts of the setting, and Memoriam, a new way to bring the character’s detailed backgrounds and expand on them in-session.

V5 is a return to Vampire’s original vision, moving boldly into the 21st century. While the rules have been redesigned, this new edition honors the deep story of the original, advancing the metaplot from where it left off and detailing exactly what has happened in the world of the Kindred up until tonight. The terror of the Second Inquisition, the conspiracies behind the Gehenna War, and the rekindling of the War of Ages: these are the building blocks of the modern V5 chronicle.

The ultimate game of personal and political horror roleplaying game, Vampire: The Masquerade, will see its fifth edition this year with the pre-order period starting midday GMT on Saturday the 28th of April. The V5 preorder will start shipping from August with the first release, the core book, available in stores from September. Two more V5 books will be released later in the Fall, the Camarilla and the Anarch setting books. V5 will also be available in other languages by the end of the year.
