Urban Shadows is an urban fantasy tabletop roleplaying game in which mortals and monsters vie for control of a modern-day city, a political battleground layered just under the reality we think we know. Vampires, faeries, hunters, and wizards fight to carve out a piece of the streets and skyscrapers, ready to make deals with all those who have something to offer.

Although Urban Shadows already comes with a baked-in World of Darkness "feel", this game will be aimed at veering even closer to that by allowing more than one of any particular splat.

That being said, I am a firm proponent of "Play to Find Out What Happens". Together, MC and players will create the politics, intrigue, and danger within the city of Boston and, in turn, reshape it.

Character Generation Info

We will generate characters together through discussion on the Character Creation thread utilizing the Urban Shadows 1e rules.

In addition, players will be free to add on a "World of Darkness" feel to their Urban Shadows playbook via the use of this World of Darkness fan-made supplement located here.

If you are the only player for a particular splat, you may choose to utilize the "vanilla" character creation rules from the Urban Shadows book if you so wish. However, if more than one player wants to play, say, the Vamp, then the link above will need to be used to create two unique flavors of Vampire.
