Chicago lies at the center of the web that is the American heartland.
Tendrils of power, wealth, and reward stretch outward, ensnaring the
selfish, greedy, and unwary. Yet, Chicago attracts its predators, too.
Creatures that would have the city for their own, spinning their own webs
of malice and intrigue. But among the city's towering skyscrapers and
wind-swept streets, who is the spider and who is the fly?
A city setting book for all World of Darkness Games
A historical, geographical, and political resource for games set in the
Windy City.
A huge game book useful for Vampire, Werewolf and Mage as the city
setting of the World of Darkness
Companion fiction title (World of Darkness: Chicago - Three Shades of
Night) releases in January
World of Darkness: Chicago is a 400 page hardcover setting supplement
for Vampire: The Requiem, Werewolf: The Forsaken and Mage: The
Awakening.
This book is amazing for someone looking to incorporate the various themes of the World of Darkness all in one place! It covers mortals, vampires, mages, and werewolves all in the same area at the same time! The book is divided into sections for each creature type so that, if you're only running Vampire in Chicago, you don't have to wade through pages of Werewolf junk. I'm planning to run a WoD game here for a bunch of mortal characters, so having all the resources this book has to offer on hand will be a tremendous asset. The book details the motivations of major NPCs, the political situation between various factions, contested areas where certain creature types might butt heads, and much much more! Again, this is a fantastic resource for people who are fairly new to the new WoD but even veterans can certainly glean something useful from it.
