## Welcome to the City of the Damned Wikia

This is the detailed information for the Vampire the Requiem larp taking place in a fictional Jacksonville, Fl in the year 2046. Check out the city's history here. Conflict rages both within the kindred political structure and without it.

The five major clans Daeva, Gangrel, Mekhet, Nosferatu, Ventrue. Vampiric powers are called Disciplines. Most vampires are members of a covenant, a social/quasi-religious organization that often gives kindred explanations for the purpose behind the vampiric condition, and what kindred should do with their condition; The Carthians , The Circle of the Crone , The Invictus , The Lancea et Sanctum , and The Ordo Dracul.

   Vampires are creatures of habit. They are unaging and unchanging, immortal. They can be beautiful, often immoral, and always dangerous. They are in an eternity of night, moving through the lights of the city the way the tiger stalks in the jungle, or the shark swims through the ocean. Truly, though, it’s not their fangs that makes them dangerous.  They are shadows in the halls of humanity, calling to people, offering every last thing the darkest parts of their hearts could desire. They do not flirt with temptation; they engage it fully and with frightening enthusiasm. They are controlling, from the slums and degenerates to city hall and the cops. Everything in the City is theirs if they take it. They aren’t the one percent - they tell the 1% what to do. Even honest and legitimate enterprises are funded by blood money, authorized by corrupt politicians. The world is violent and few handle it better than the kindred of the City of the Damned.
Vampires are stuck in time, slow to assimilate to the technology of modern humans. Some vampires still think of computers as a fad. Frankly, when a computer is considered obsolete by the time the owner gets it home, how does one keep up?  While social media is a great way of meeting people, it’s a great way of being seen by hidden stalkers. Yet the ubiquitousness of being online also seems to make people feel separated from each other, leaving them craving something physical, something visceral, something to get their blood going. The twenty-first century has dangers never before thought of or seen.  It’s only getting worse….

Downtown has new life, new businesses, even new skyscrapers that have reshaped the city’s skyline. There is a new Aquarium, the Landing has been redone and there’s even a ferris wheel built on the Riverwalk. Riverside Ave (the section actually on the river, that borders downtown) has completed construction on the series of apartments and shops. Old Springfield has gone through a city revitalization program and has become the new art community (What Riverside was in the early Millennium and San Marco was in the 90s). I-295 has expanded to four lanes and is working on six lanes each way.

The kindred of the City currently rule through a Five seat council, a representative of each clan. See here for more details. Though few are satisfied with this. The Invictus strive to have the classic model restored, one Prince ruling the city. The Carthians and the Ordo Dracul are pushing for a ten seat council, with five additional seats for each of the covenants also represented.
