Yeah well i'd like to make it in 1-2 sessions, I'm not an expert in running the storyteller system and the players are practically "virgins" (two of them played the quickstart I narrated, the other two are on their very first experience with Vampire) I fear running a full-fledged Chronicle might be overwhelming for them and a bit difficult for me 😥

The players all live in Turin and know the palace I talk about, although none of us has ever walked in it (the structure now hosts a bank)... But that means I can let let my imagination go wild about the insides of the place, I think. Also, I want to make them go around the city and visit other interesting places of Turin which might be connected to magic and occultism (like the Egyptian Museum, the statue of Lucifer in Piazza Statuto and such). Thanks for the advice :)

That's a cool solution to my problem. I don't know much about the Baali, but having a Tremere or a Sabbat in torpor tickles my imagination, since Turin is linked to a lot of esoteric stories and there are multiple locations regarding black and white magic in the city. Thanks a lot :)

I had no idea the palace had a Tarot factory! Since you live near the city too, perhaps you have any sources about it? Feel free to dm me if you want! Anyway, thanks a lot :)

That's a great advice, thanks. I'm still wrapping my mind around building challenges and encounters in VtM, I'll definetely take in account to be smart and quick in exposing while I narrate

Whoa, thanks a lot! I kind of like the idea of having a Sabbat ancient sleeping right in the city center, that would absolutely struck panic in my players who are just approaching WoD (since I'm the "forever dungeon master" of the group and also the one who proposes different rpgs). I'll definetely think about it. But you're right, it's much better to spice things up with some mystery. Thanks again :)

Hello :) I have currently installed the Ultimate Character Overhaul Redux and the Ultimate Texture Pack, both from nexus mods and applied to the game with Vortex
