Apocalyptic Record Ahroun Pt 2
We close the Ahroun Chapter with a focus on the Annals of Albrecht and his Ancestral story of Magic Shroom Milk from the Spirit Deer and the double standard of acceptable mazophilia when it comes directly from Gaia.

The Crimson Gutter V5
"You’ve been Embraced, brought into the night and left to fend for yourself with your
coterie. Now what?"
The Crimson Gutter chronicle introduces core concepts during play such as feeding, the sects (Anarchs, Camarilla, and the Church of Caine), and the Masquerade itself while giving the players’ characters a chance to carve a niche for themselves among the Kindred.

Revisiting: Werewolf the Apocalypse [5th edition popular name]
This was written to correct a podcast I could not stand by. The original Werewolf 5th edition came from a perception of a clear bias. I wanted "5th edition". What we got was "Werewolf the Apocalypse". A reimagined story. Reimagined means to reinterpret imaginatively. I did not give it a solid chance.
2 months since I released that pod, I have been working on a campaign for the reimagined werewolf story and I fell in love with it.
I hope, with this podcast, fans come with me on that journey and dare to buy the reimagined tale and see if the feel of the new captivates you. At the very least, have an informed opinion from trying the material out and not settling for just reading it. This is my apology for going against a principal I typically held to.

W20 Apocalyptic Record "The Night We Loat Ranch Apocalypse"
"Get comfy, pups. If you want a tale of blood, claws,
gore, and guts, I’m going to regale you with one hell
of a tragic story. These are the recollections of Astrid
Broken Claw, Ahroun of the Get of Fenris. Do you
know her name? You should. She was a key player in
the Amazon War of the late 20th century. Astrid herself
told me — Nina Freeman, her blessed granddaughter."

Love Bites. A New Year's Story for V5
"Love Bites features the messy entanglements that
emerge when what passes for love among the Kindred
meets politics. On New Year’s Eve, the Prince entrusts
an up-and-coming Maréchal coterie with what seems
like an easy task: escort her prodigal grandchilde,
Gatsby, to a Nosferatu party hosted by visiting
Cleopatras, ensure he has a memorable night, and safely
return him to her penthouse before dawn.
To accomplish this, they must contend with Gatsby’s
antics, face the inconveniences of a celebrating city, and
get him to the warrens before midnight to honor the
Nosferatu with a New Year’s toast."

Informative and inspiring
I’m a longtime player and this show has reintroduced me to a game I thought I knew and inspired me to play it more and explore things I never played before. Would love to see a discussion about By Night Studios’ Masquerade game for LARP. Keep up the great work!
Very Informative
