Summary

Barely a few months ago, Annabelle was a regular young woman, majoring in Political Science at Griffith College in Los Angeles. She was active in a number of student organizations and political groups, fighting for citizens rights against government and corporate corruption. After a particular accident though, her humanity was stolen from her and now she is a monster - plunged suddenly into a terrifying new existence full of rules and demons she does not know and cannot trust. -------This story is a tribute to Geek & Sundry's absolutely AMAZING chronicle, L.A. by Night, which was streamed in their Twitch and Youtube channels. It follows the sessions of their game of Vampire: The Masquerade, a tabletop RPG game. SOME of this fic is directly transcribed from their playthroughs, but a lot of details and outcomes of situations will be different to adapt to a different ship.THIS STORY WILL CONTAIN EXPLICIT MENTION OF VIOLENCE AND GORE (and maybe sexual content though I haven't decided yet). Read at your down discretion.

The World We Live In

April 20, 2025 at 03:20 AM

L.A. by night is a city in turmoil. In the 1940's, young vampires rebelled and the streets ran red with elder blood. From it, the Anarch free states were born; under the leadership of the legendary Jeremy McNeil.

The Anarchs carved the city up into neighborhood Baronies, and claimed Los Angeles to be a city of new promise for all Kindred. A city of equality and justice among the undead. But... As with all kinds of justice, the mileage might make its meaning vary. And that is doubly true when you're a vampire.

In the recent nights, the Camarilla abandoned the city of San Francisco and Prince Vannevar Thomas has claimed praxis over Los Angeles... Which, of course, did not ring well to the residing Anarchs.

They must respond. Quickly.

Before the Camarilla takes over the city that they call theirs.
