Nightcrawlers-title-inv.png

Setting

  • Reference TL: 8
  • Reference Culture: Western
  • Reference Language: English
  • Magic System: (MH) RPM

Style

  • Style: Cinematic (comic-book flavored; ATE2 p. 49)
  • Morality: Heroes Wanted (ATE2 p. 50)

Tropes

Inverse Ninja Rule:Vampires (somewhat justified); Police Are Useless; 20 Minutes Into the Future

Central Tension

The growing vampire infestation

Expectations

  • Iron-Man Rules: Quarter will neither be asked nor given; no safety nets, no fudging
  • Expect BBEGs to go after PCs' significant-others/family-members/etc., and show no restraint or mercy. Some of them should die, eventually.
  • Expect law-enforcement to do everything they can to pursue, prosecute, and incarcerate vigilantes, no matter how helpful they may be. PCs' may have to do jail-time.
  • Expect BBEGs to have super-friends, and use them against the PCs.

Intended Features

  • True sandbox campaign; no linear narrative
  • Increasing difficulty over time (via BAD, Action 2)
  • Lots of Fantastic Dungeon Grappling; vamps will definitely get grabby
  • Lots of use of "The Hunt" (MH2:4)—but clues are definitely gonna have to be earned
  • "Improvement Through Study" (via spreadsheet)
  • Cinematic Conventions:
  • Hacking works on anything with a computer chip (within reason), but it's effectively a (narrative-based only) "superpower," and not just anyone with a keyboard can do it.

Campaign Victory Conditions
