2020 NSS Launch!

Hey everyone, and happy Wednesday!

We have a few giant updates for you all today – the biggest of which being the NSS, which we’re excited to share with you now :

When the Clock Strikes Thirteen
(Vampire the Masquerade, 2020)

As a note, this is a living document, and the date in the header will indicate the version and the date it’s been updated with anything major – we’ll let you know if that happens via a post on this site, and via the list.

A second note: The NSS is meant to be a more general overview, and things will be explained in a lot more detail in the various guides as they come out.

Next on the Incoming List for overall setting documents (and progress) we have:
> Clan/Bloodline Sect Distribution (final formatting)
> Elder Guide (final draft)
> VSS Creation Guide (mid-draft)
> Player Approvals Guide (mid-draft)
> Lore Guide (early drafts)

Additionally, we’ve been hard at work on the various clan and sect guides – we’ve got an amazing team working on these, and are looking forward to getting them out to membership in the next couple months 🙂 

Paths and Ghouls will have guides written out as well; while we’re using the BNS systems for these, we all felt that some expansion would help players and storytellers with consistency overall. 

As usual, you can use the Feedback form on this site, or email me with comments or questions at PL.Masquerade@ST.mindseyesociety.org
(Comments from Facebook/the lists will be compiled and addressed in an additional QA post here, as well)

Thank you all, and we hope you enjoy!!

PS: A note on email – I found a few drafts that had gotten miss-sorted, and I apologize for that! They’ve all been seen, and replies are incoming today and tomorrow. SERE and NWRE Charity auction winners especially – keep an eye on your emails, and thanks for your patience!
