World of Darkness -- Pax Romana

Introduction

So five years have passed since our heroic band of young gods returned to the Roman imperial capital
to fix the damage caused by an wayward Titan. Many tales have they of wonders unseen and worlds
unimaginable, but no matter how adventurous these demigods be, even immortals desire stability,
perhaps as much as they desire mortal adoration and sacrifice.

Don't fret, at this point some players think their storyteller is just going to railroad them into some
convenient plotline and deny the PCs a chance to shape their characters lives and ambitions. Perhaps in the
past that was true, but we are are all older and wiser than we were, including your storyteller. So here is
what we are going to do, the storyteller is going to setup the beginning of an interactive online session and
the players will describe their characters desires or goals, there will be a regular back and forth allowing us
to chart your characters last five years together. No dice will be needed, rather we will gauge success in each
endeavor by your character's ratings in attributes, abilities, backgrounds and virtues. Although your character's
lives may not be perfect, each player will be able to advance his or her character in the manner of their own
choosing while still having to deal with the slings and arrows of cruel fate.

Each of the following chapters will center on one of the characters and each chapter will begin with a prologue
describing the character's circumstances and each chapter will be clearly marked for each player-character. There
will be a give and take between a specific player and the storyteller, much like a one-on-one session, but other players
can chime in as long as their character is directly involved, in this way player-characters can conspire to aid each
other and it makes the process more of a group production while still allowing for individual goals and successes.
