The Setting

You are all vamps that are less than 3 years old and have been working at The Ages for less than 2 months. The Ages is a large entertainment complex comprised of several buildings linked with an extensive network of underground tunnels and rooms. The buildings have themed rooms throughout world history. Guests can take tours of the ages, see skits of historical events, and even dress up and enjoy history first hand with the provided costume closets. The Ages is owned by a centuries old vampire named Merc (pronounced Mark).

In this game you work at The Ages and you are trying to gain the favor of Merc (the GM) to nab an open spot on the main stage in the most popular building at The Ages and to not get fired. You want to work with and learn from the best? That is where you need to be! Make enemies and allies by sabotaging or assisting your fellow vampires, but only one can come out on top. The Ages is actually open during this game, so the room may include actors, guests, even effects technicians.
