{{tab}}{{Dropcap|T}}here is a certain mystique about the Windy City -- something that a person can't quite put a finger on, but everyone knows it. The clouds are unusually dark and heavy. The sun doesn't quite shine as bright. There is a certain feeling in the air that lets one think it is October, when it is really March. This is where those things that we dare dream of in our deepest private parts of mind lurk. The horrors that defy our words, language and concept. We see them on television and media -- but seeing it in real life, no way. Just behind this comfortable veil of blissful ignorance lurks this other world -- a shadow world. <br><br>

{{tab}}{{Dropcap|T}}his, my victims, is where our story takes place. All the dark alleys are made some what darker. The blood just a few shades redder. This is the World of Darkness. On our game, the goal is simple -- delightfully so. We want to tell profoundly deep and complex stories that provide a rich canvas to create a living breathing character. We foster a space of open communication, risk taking, and ultimately death. Do not mistake us for monsters -- we only play them. We want a story where your character burns brighter, burns hotter, and leaves a beautifully horrible corpse in your wake.

he city that works. Chi-town. The Big Onion. Chi-raq. Chicago is a place with dizzying highs and abysmal lows. A rich history with thick shadows, just waiting to have some supernatural depth added to them.

nd that's what we've done using The Chronicles of Darkness 2e rules with Changeling, Mortal, Vampire, and Werewolf game lines available for play. We've taken a dark city and made it darker, with a goal of telling intense stories with a crazy, out-there lean. With a goal of encouraging people to communicate OOCLy about what they want from a scene or a plot or a moment to create better stories than they could without that communication. Burn bright; burn hot; burn out. Tell stories. Don't be afraid of dying. Do the crazy shit that makes the best 'Remember that one time...?' of nostalgia.

Dulce periculum.

Stars Fell on Chicago 2023.04.02 Mahdi, Five, Saulot as ST Every meteorologist and would-be astrologer didn't predict anything like this. A beauteous display of falling stars falling all over the city. Harmless meteoroids on first sight, but those around them when they land speak of something us. A few such falling stars fall onto the roof of a local pizza joint (Fireside), and strangeness ensues.
