[@perry6762]

This is so useful. Thank you for making this because holy shit there are so many books

[@SummonedStories]

Right? When it hit me how many there were now it didn't feel real. And yet I want more.

[@Outstarwalker]

Amazing work, truly! Huge thanks for compiling this!

[@rainbii]

Happy to help!

I think the only book you forgot is the Storyteller's Toolkit that comes with the ST screen. Not a big deal.

[@SummonedStories]

Good catch. I might do a video about the other materials like ST screen, dice, discipline deck and others and would probably include it with that.

❤Thanks for the reviews and a great overview

[@rcdt6653]

Great video

[@SummonedStories]

Thank you!

[@trevor7861]

I can’t remember if you included the free companion for V5. Either way, terrific job!

[@SummonedStories]

I went back and forth about including it. I mention it in a couple spots, but since all of it is in the Player's Guide I didn't give it its own part. Definitely worth checking out for anyone who wants to dip their toes in without spending money.

Something like this is so helpful, so thank you. If I may ask, what exactly is so special about Laws of the Night? I understand it is specific to live action roleplay, but is that like tournaments or something? I am afraid I am not that familiar with it.

[@SummonedStories]

Laws of the Night basically acts as a corebook for VtM LARP. The rules are adapted for live action play. The book goes through character creation, disciplines, and the rule system used. It also has information about the setting, advice for running live action games and playing in them. A live action game is similar to a table top game in terms of setting and telling a vampire story. It is a more immersive and character driven game that leans into acting and characters interacting moreso than mechanics. Organizers will create an event of some sort and the players will play out what their characters do throughout the night. Some are single events while others are part of ongoing chronicles. Typically a live action game is not a tournament or heavily action-oriented, though anything is possible. We do have plans to do a whole series on the LARP scene dependent on if a couple upcoming events work out for us.

Do you cover the novels release under Whitewolf Publishing? The original 9 clan novels are too good.

So how do you play? With the chapters board game or just with dice???
