Introduction:
    Time Period: Modern Day (April 1998), though things might shift
around as the game proceeds.

Mood: Surreal, strange, and far from the ordinary, but not gothic,
not dark, and not on the whole tragic.  Emphasis and story direction is
dictated on what happens with the characters, i.e. nothing is carved in
stone, and role-playing is what I'm looking for (if you're big into
combat, this isn't your flavor of game). Be warned, I do take the
"Golden Rule" found in all the White Wolf books to heart.  Though I will

not change the core rules, take it to heart that all of the things found

in books outside of the Main Books (Mage, Werewolf), and the Player's
Guides aren't neccessarily a "given." Meaning that things such as
spirits and the umbra might be a bit different than what has been
written in suppliments.  Think fantasy, exploration, and discovery, with

some other things thrown in.

Turns: At least once a week.  I work part time, go to college full
time, and empathise with anyone who works a 40-hour week (been there,
done that).  So, I'd like to gear things towards the quality of
enjoyment of my players, with the speed of replies being arbitrary.  I
know, there are those who have a life away from the internet, and I'm
not about to insist that they read their mail everyday just  to play in
a game.

Players: Four players will be accepted, and that is what I'm
keeping it to.  I'd like to keep this game fun, not time-consuming, and
the smaller the group the better.

Submission Guidelines:

Characters I'm looking for:
    Three Garou of any Tribe (One Theurge, One Galliard, and One
Ahroun),
homid is preferred, though I will consider a lupis or a metis.
    One Mage of any Tradition except for the Virtual Adepts, don't
worry, I have
my reasons.

Character Sheets:
    I need a charcter sheet with maximum of  7 disadvantages, and 32
experience
points.  The tables for the spending of XP can be found on page 188 of
the
Werewolf book, and page 228 of the Mage book.  If you have a stat that
is four or
above select a specialty, and be prepared to explain how your character
aquired it in
your "Backgrounds" section.

Character Description:
    Include a physical description of your character ( i.e. hair color,
eye color,
height, how they dress), as well as a mental description of them.  What
is their
outlook on life, what are their goals, and their attitudes? Is your
character a
snot-nosed punk who gets by day to day with an "I don't care, just stay
outta my
face" attitude?

Character Background:
    This can be in story form or a factual style, however you wish it.
I'm looking
for the character's basic history with an emphasis on the important
happenings in
their lives.

If you're stumped on how or what to write, you can email me
questions, and/or you can take a gander at the character
templates in the backs of Tribe and Tradition books.
