Vampire: The Masquerade
The world of Vampire: The Masquerade is a dark reflection of our own. The shadows loom longer here, and the night is more reluctant to yield to day. Corruption runs rampant, from the government through private corporations and into the various subcultures that revel in these culturally bankrupt times. Vampires are an outgrowth of the people who populate this desperate environment. They exist in the World of Darkness because they are the monsters among us, the products of a world so dark that only something truly horrible and captivating can challenge the depths into which the living residents of the world have plunged it.
Vampire: The Masquerade exploded into hobby games in 1991 and inspired a generation of fans the likes of which the game industry had never seen before or since. The cultural significance Vampire left on not just the gaming world but on modern vampire-related pop culture can be seen and felt at virtually every turn and in every medium today. Onyx Path Publishing offers a number of role-playing game fiction, art, and clothing products for Vampire: The Masquerade, as well as helping to re-release over a hundred original books through PDF and print-on-demand. We published throughout Vampire‘s 20th Anniversary Edition, and are excited have worked with Paradox on Vampire 5th Edition. Vampire 5th Edition is currently under the stewardship of Renegade Game Studio.

Originally posted by Rose on the V20 Blog When Vampire: The Masquerade debuted in 1991, it looked and felt very different from other roleplaying books. The art was a big part of that, but there was also something else. Quotes. Shakespeare, Ovid, and Alan Moore all headed sections. But so did The Cure and the Indigo Girls. … Read more
Originally posted by Shane on the V20 Blog Vampire has its seemed always been orchestrated in some ways similar to the acts in a play. A first, second, and third act. Much in the ways that the books have three chapters. So on the eve of the beginning of the second act of the V20 … Read more
Today, as an experiment, I’m posting Ken Meyer, Jr’s sketches for his V20 art assignment. Ken has graciously allowed me to post these and to make our communications visible as they occur, and I’m hoping that he’ll just pop over here and comment directly on my comments as well as yours. That’s right, how about … Read more

Originally posted by Justin on the V20 Blog I’ve never much enjoyed the Setites in actual play. I like them enough as an idea, but the idea always felt a little too narrow in practice. Black guy with dreads? HE’S A SETITE. That always felt very limiting, especially if the idea was to offer a … Read more
Originally posted by Justin on the V20 Blog This one was a lot of fun to write, because the Toreador are such ideal vampires, and because it’s enjoyable to get all florid with them. I don’t think there’s much here that will be contentious. I do need to seed a few references to the various … Read more
Originally posted by Eddy on the V20 Blog Quick bit of set-up: I’ve moved into a new position at CCP/White Wolf, and the most immediate consequence of that is that I have more time to help out with V20. Justin asked me to help him with some of the heavy lifting on the main V20 … Read more

Nobody knows what you do, but whatever it is, they’re jealous. To you, though, none of that matters. All that matters is the Blood. You need it, they have it. The … Read more
