Setting: New York City, New York in the year 2016.

Things that must be known about the setting:

1)  Each player character has been an Awakened for quite some time but not that long, i.e. a Disciple, but I will allow Adepts if I trust you enough to act responsibly. Otherwise, your character must be a Disciple.

2)  Player characters must be middle class or below. There are exceptions to this rule, though I'll have to approve them after thorough consideration.

3) Player characters are in a cabal together. I'll let you all decide the name of you cabal and your player characters' positions within (see here for the positions and their functions).

4) Task Force VALKYRIE (A government conspiracy that hides the supernatural from the general public and hunts supernatural creatures from mages, werewolves, vampires, et.c)  have been recently investigating supernatural and paranormal occurences in the area. The Cheiron Group (A pharmaceutical and medical conglomerate augments its hunters with parts of monsters) that has  has also recently set up shop in New York, putting them at odds with Task Force VALKYRIE.

House Rules

1) When making a character, please detail their stats (Mental, Physical, Social attributes; Special skills; Gnoisis, Willpower, and Wisdom; Spells and Rank). Furthermore, please detail essential in-character information about them, such as name, shadowname, and backstory. the template of this character sheet if you'd like.

2) Be original, please. Do not base your character off of any existing character in fiction. Some similarities are okay, but if the character is based entirely off of, say, the Doctor, then I will have a ridiculously OP version of the actual character your character is based off of and insta-kill your character. Nothing personal, just a bit of a pet peeve of mine.

3) Please make a clear difference between what your character is saying, what your character is thinking, and what your character is doing so that other players and I will be able to understand. Furthermore, please use proper grammar and spelling. It is very important that everyone understands what you're saying.

4) No flawless characters, please. Give your characters at least one noticeable fault.

5) Have fun! blog:Grand's Story Time/Everything you need to know to play/ST Mage: the Awakening!|the Awakening!|Rules, Rules, mechanics, and everything else you should know before you start playing.

Characters must be approved by me before they become a part of the story. Capacity of this chronicles is five people AT MAXIMUM. Please reply with your character sheets, and please keep your character sheets with you at all times. You will be changing them as the story goes on, and it won't be my job to keep track of the progress of your characters.
