THE MONSTER OF EALING
Last night, several people reported the sighting of a "screaming red monster" in a quiet neighbourhood of Ealing. After a power shortage in the area, a building caught fire. It was then when, what was described as a "man shaped, footless creature" emerged from the flames, leaping, running, and screaming. One woman has told our reporters that the man had "teeth like a wolf, and the face of the devil". Police officers are still trying to get to the bottom of this; neither the power shortage nor the fire have still been explained. A spokesperson from Scotland Yard has stated that the "so called monster" might be a wounded person, escaping the fire.

TRAGEDY IN TOOLEY STREET
The police has found the bodies of three TFL workers in the construction site at Tooley Street. One of their colleagues raised the alarms last week, when the three workers didn't attend their shifts. The bodies of the men have been found in a deep hole, uncovered by the refurbishment works that are taking place in the area. According to the Police, the bodies were horribly mutilated, which has led to the wildest speculations. The names of the three workers are being kept anonymous, following the wishes of their families.

HOROSCOPE
MARCH 8 - PISCES
You are used to making sacrifices, to prioritising the happiness of others before yours. Even though that is a noble attitude, there are times in life where the only healthy alternative is to embrace your own selfishness and allow yourself some enjoyment. Reserve one hour per day to do something you really like. Treat yourself! Your colour for this month is blue.
Echoes from the past ring back into London. Their intensity increases until they are deafening. What once was a faded memory of a glorious time, now becomes a shocking reality. The consequences of actions taken decades ago ripple into the present, altering the lives of everybody in the City. Unguided and blind, Kindred wander around, trying to make profit out of the reigning chaos.


The appearance of four mysterious figures turned the city upside down. Mistrust and jealousy became the official currency of London. Serpents and fiends rise to power, misdirecting the blaming eyes of the Camarilla towards imaginary enemies. Only those with clear vision and the ability to trust each other strive, while the rest run towards a shallow grave.

Welcome To The Night

You find yourself in London on a dreary, foggy night like any other. But what lurks in the shadows is the stuff of fantasies and nightmares, far from mortal reality.

This game uses the cursed and immortal vampiric condition as a backdrop to explore themes of morality, depravity, the human condition, salvation, and personal horror. We are a writing and roleplaying community dedicated to telling complex and engaging stories.

Your fate is your own. Mingle among the ivory-tower elite in the Camarilla, join the fight of the discontented and chaotic Anarch rabble, or set out independently and attempt to survive in London's nighttime underworld. Anything is possible in our World of Darkness.

    Mot Khartoum Needs You!

    Hoping you’d find this. Something has come up, rose up over me. This is a monolith over me, and soon, if we do this right, it’ll tower over the whole London scene. I need your help.

    Now they wouldn't let me in any theater, I usually dress to insult rather than impress. But there’s one theater that’ll let me in. The Blue Noire. It’s a big empty shell, just a shadow you wouldn't see flying in an airplane overhead. I don’t know much, I don’t care about its history. All I know is that this can be the home for every Malkavian in London.

    Yeah, I’m talking about a neutral space. Where you aren’t Camarilla, Sabbat, Anarch, whatever. You’re a chatterbox. My chatterbox. All this time, you hear me rolling rants out about we and I, walking and running, and the awful way of things. But do you really hear me? I’m gonna make this place my own, and then I’ll make it the home of every Malkavian.

    It’s haunted. Long and short of it. Somethings there, invisible fingers nearly snatched me up and threw me into its belly. I’m going to need some help. Don’t care for ghosts, don’t care for their music box hells. Just help me get rid of it. Sick of the sects? Help me, and I promise you a room of your very own. If you can stand the shuffle step of Malkavian kind, you’ll find a safe haven with us, and our protection. At least mine.

    Alright, that’s it. Hurry up, aint got much time.


Explanation of Required Skills (Rated from Most to Least Importance)

First, let me say that this won't be a judgement of any character sheet or point system. I'm not looking to roll dice or use random number generators. This is a general idea of what to expect when playing this miniquest. I'm looking for professional of anything, but you will need to think on your feet sometimes. Other times, it'll be in deep contemplation that you'll find the answer. Anyway, there they are

Empathy: One will need to understand great deal of old emotions. A ghost haunts for various reasons, and this specter is haunting due to tragic circumstances, so understanding the powerful emotions pushing the haunting onward will help in removing the specter.

Expression: Similar to Empathy, but also taking into account the nature of the haunt. Keep in mind that this is a theater, and thus tied to the history of the ghost. In a hall of art, expression will be key.

Occult: Understanding the nature of ghosts will help in understanding their motives, actions, and powers. This will be very helpful.

Athletics: This is a high danger Miniquest, so being able to run, dodge, escape, and flee will be important. When dealing with a ghost, some battle can't be won, only endured.

Stealth: The ghost will be looking for you, its victims. Being able to avoid conflict altogether will be important, not to mention hiding from any other dangers that may exist within the theater's halls.

Investigation: One should keep an eye out for certain clues as to the haunting, and while this could be a run-off from Occult and Empathy, having a key eye for clues onsite will help as well.

Medicine: We have a few mortal players, so be prepared to work on living flesh. Nothing as extreme as CPR, I hope. But you should know how to bandage a wound, or at the most set a splint.

Survival: You might be spending some time in this place. Be prepared for a very long night. Extra snacks for everyone!

I'm gonna have to skip this one after all. Some RL problems have come up and i think i'll be too stressed out to do this right.

Good luck to you all.
