The city that works. Chi-town. The Big Onion. Chi-raq. Chicago is a place with dizzying highs and abysmal lows. A rich history with thick shadows, just waiting to have some supernatural depth added to them.

And that’s what we’ve done using The Chronicles of Darkness 2e rules with Changeling, Mortal, Vampire, and Werewolf game lines available for play.

We’ve taken a dark city and made it darker, with a goal of telling intense stories with a crazy, out-there lean, with a goal of encouraging people to communicate OOCLy about what they want from a scene or a plot or a moment to create better stories than they could without that communication. Burn bright; burn hot; burn out. Tell stories. Don’t be afraid of dying. Do the crazy shit that makes the best ‘Remember that one time…?’ of nostalgia. Kill a Prince, face the darkness beneath the city, save Chicago at the cost of self or sanity, or edge it closer to destruction. Chase glory, lose limbs, get scars.

Dulce periculum. (Danger is Sweet.)

Features:

• We offer a variety to suit different play styles. Big plot, middlin’ plot, small plot, and prps.

• An alpha-test Territory system that is intended to play out similarly to Risk on the grid.

• A John Wick style +coin system and coded resources that can be traded with other players.

• Events code and +plot code support people that want to st, or have ideas they want to share with others.

• Low-Medium gain xp with many different ways to trickle in beats.

• Color coded systems, so it’s easy to see who controls what build or grid space.

• Several ‘Quality of Life’ coded add-ons that can be found here.

We offer a mostly co-op pve experience with a variety of support systems to encourage non-pk pvp.

Currently averaging 30-40 players peak per day, with several plot lines getting traction, as well as one-shots and scenes run for individuals.
