SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Falconian Productions is a week into our new Kickstarter campaign to create some further material for The Blood:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/falconianproductions/the-blood-more-drops?ref=3jfgxa

The Blood is an urban fantasy tabletop RPG with a unique take on vampires and magic in the modern era, wherein the undead are just one of many types of spellcasters. Most of the folklore about them, then, is drawn from an incomplete understanding of their unique abilities and how they relate to the arcane.

We've been doing an experiment of sorts, with a type of supplement we're calling Drops of The Blood. These are mini-supplements meant to expand on important but ultimately optional portions of the game, building up from something basic rather than starting large and forcing people to cut down what they don't use. If you don't plan to use spirits, avoid the spirit supplement; if you don't want magic to be any more complicated, don't buy the advanced magic supplement, and so on.

This campaign is about those supplements, and is meant to fund the next two (or more) of them:
  • Drops of The Blood: Atellurian Realms, a book that covers mechanics for otherworldly realms created from powerful convocations of Resonance and magical energy. These can be anything from a walk-in closet that was never really there, to a missing 13th floor, to an entire faerie realm. You can find an Atellurian Realm anywhere, and entrance into them might be a literal key to get through a door, closing your eyes at the wrong time in a faerie circle, or something stranger still.
  • Drops of The Blood: Arcane Options provides additional "complex" (and ultimately optional) systems that both give the Narrator new tools to use when running the game and provide players with more choices to develop their characters and focus their capabilities. This is where you'll find complex stealth and infiltration rules, "politcking" rules for dealing with the supernatural underworld, plus (Dis)Advantages and example spells for interacting with these systems.
There's also a planned Print-on-Demand compilation book that's exclusive to Kickstarter for the forseeable future!

We're currently about 70% to our goal, and could use the boost! Check it out, and of course back us if you can!
