Overview
What to expect from our game.
Social and Political Intrigue
Raves & Revolt is a social and political PvP game designed with between one hundred and one hundred and fifty players in mind. Players will play as vampires, navigating their place in the Modern world, struggling against their beasts, as well as that of those they encounter.
Rules Lite, Roleplay Heavy
We believe that LARP is it's most fun when the story takes precedent, and as such will be focusing on encouraging a collaborative play style, wherein every player should get the chance to flex their role-playing muscles, and craft a story that everyone can be proud of. Whether it's win or lose every player should be happy with the outcome of a scene involving them.
Coteries, Movements and Playing in Groups
Fundamentally, Vampire is a game about survival in the face of a world dominated by the inhumane. When you are thrust into a world of monsters the urge to survive, and cling to what you once knew, is stronger than ever before.
With this in mind, we are encouraging our players to consider the movement they are apart of and how this may affect their ideology and survival. All roaches are apart of one movement or another.
Some Kindred might be in coteries too.These are groups of Licks with a common agenda, or goal. They needn't all be friends, or happily working together: but for some reason or another these groups have found themselves working together. Ideally, everyone will be a part of such a group.
Our story and Setting
As storyteller’s we want to focus on the theme of revolution, and turmoil. The world that our Kindred are living is far removed from what it was less than a century ago! Change is on the horizon, whether they like it or not, and the world is not safe for them any longer. Paranoia, and a hunger for safety, are integral themes in this setting. With the Camarilla closed, and the Second Inquisition cracking open the clandestine world of Vampires; nowhere is safe - especially alone. Together, those who come forward will either find a way to coexist in the face of this threat, or meet final death trying.(For more detail visit the Setting page.)
The Venue
The event will take place in a Night-Club Venue or something similar. There will be music, as well as a dance floor and side room(s) for RP. Closer to the time, we will publish a schedules with the times that the music will become louder, in order to build atmosphere and give people a chance to cut loose. Music will be playing throughout the game in the background across most RP spaces: but the highest volumes will be reserved for the main floor. Disposable earbuds will be provided for those who should want them! As always, if there are any concerns or general questions, feel free to contact us! We will be more than happy to answer any and all of them!
