Appearance

Economy

The economy of Covington is now based on the railroad, riverboats, and logging. This town has a considerable number of summer homes, where people from New Orleans come to wait out the malaria season. Several of the hotels specialize in Ozone water pools, for the health of their clients. A number of goods are shipped here by railroad, then shipped down river and across lake Pontchartrain to New Orleans. Timber from Abita Springs and Mandeville is hauled back up through here. In the fall cars are loaded also with local cotton.

= The Others of Covington

Rohit Narav -- Child of the Swamp

The Nosferatu of Covington

While the stories of the undead in large cities has by far surpassed the original tradition of historical vampire folklore, it is in small towns, villages and rural settings that the traditional vampire can be found. I believe a coterie story set in a small rural town like Covington, Louisiana circa World War One to the current era has potential. While Mac started the game, he declined to continue it, probably due to a general lack of interest. Unfortunately, that didn't include me, as I rather enjoyed the low level characters and down-to-earth nature of the game. So, even though I am not playing, I have decided to keep the story alive with the limited hope that it will be picked back up later. -- "The Magister 12:36, 26 November 2015 (MST)"
