-LIGHTS OUT-
I'm planning on running a modern gothic fantasy setting using a very simple homebrew dice system that I want to beta test.
I feel like I could run this game for 5 players, maybe a couple more. It'll be set roughly in the late 90s, deep in the still, unbeating heart of a dying city where urban desperadoes struggle with authority, addiction and ultimately each other for a glimpse of something better.
The players in this setting will take on the roles of Vampires, undead parasites in a degenerate industrial ecosystem.

I want to incorporate some very light dice rolling elements in this roleplay, mostly for resolving combat or other uncertain situations. Mostly I want to run this as a freeform, character driven experience. That's why the rules I've written for this setting are extremely simple to learn and the entire thing could fit on a pamphlet. Character creation will probably take you about 30 seconds once you've figured out what kind of vampire you want to play.
If you have any questions at all please go ahead. If you want something and it's not already in the game I can probably think of a way to incorporate it.

A small list of influences:
Films (Fight club, Only Lovers Left Alive, Trainspotting, What we do in the shadows, Blade, Underworld, Akira, Hellboy + many more)
Books and comics (Dracula, Skulduggery Pleasant, The Crow, Johnny the homicidal maniac)
Musical (Joy division, Bauhaus, Marilyn Manson, Street sects, Nine inch nails, Chelsea Wolfe, Idles, I love you but I've chosen darkness, The Cure + countless others)
Rose Vladimir (played anonymously)

Hey I would like to join this! I will be using "Rose" if that's okay?
