Hmm.

Apparently these teaser images from Paradox Interactive may be based on real locations in Seattle.

At night. In the rain. Revealed by Tender.

Hmm.

(We don't actually know much at all about World Of Darkness Seattle... as I just checked, coincidentally. It was home to the Nosferatu Pusfinger who due to a life boon owed him by a Toreador trendsetter was able to make grunge a fashion thing. And.. that's about it.)

We're all fine here. How are you?

Villain defeated. Reality storm stopped as it started and villain kicked into it. Everyone somewhat bruised.

Request for next time that we go to a fancy party.

Slay Day

"It's Happy Birthday Buffy! ... It's Not-Happy Birthday Buffy?"

LA By Night is my favorite thing about V5. Hunger Dice are second.

Captain Marvel

Yaaaaaaaaay

Happy International Women's Day!

So, yeah, reality storm threatening.

Didi: "I use magic to score free drinks and impress boys. Can we run?"
Cara: "You can. I'll understand."
Didi: "Damn it, now I'll feel guilty!"

She sits back down. Later, as they discuss the plan:

Cara: "You weren't really planning on running, were you?"
Didi: "No... Well, not entirely..."

Simon the Hermetic came up with a way of tracking the storm stone before it gets activated, and off we went to battle.

Didi distracted some guards, in this case by siccing bats on them.

Even in the face of mortal danger, Didi is ON BRAND.

This is fine...

To the Ecstatic: "So, your mentor, um..."

In his defense, he did not deny it.

And then the Hermetic investigators came back with actual knowledge, which was more helpful.

So now we just have to stop a reality storm.

"... I need to call my mom."

No, I don't know what's going on with Tender either.

OR DO I

(no I don't)

"Air Quotes"

On being introduced to a Hermetic investigation team:

"So we 'trust' these people, do we?"

Nines Rodriguez

Nines did not disappoint this day one Bloodlines geek in L.A. By Night. Playing him as genuinely good but unwilling to lead.

300 posts

and I got Wraith 20!

I swear this setup was deliberate.

"I can ask them something only the real one would know."
"Like what? You've never met the real one."
"... Shit."

But despite this early setback, Didi's ability to open doors and hit people with them proved sightly useful and the thief was caught. Though not before stealing something powerful from the Hermetic arsenal.

This is fine.

What we lost

I really love Jason Carl's reminders of what the vampires have lost in the scene-setting for L.A. By Night, like his introductions describing the normal days that normal people had as the Kindred slept, and the description of Griffith Park by day and by night in episode 2.05.

Also, it's okay, I wasn't using that heart anyway.

Who's the fairest of them all? Me, obviously.

Identity theft via magic mirror? No way that'll get confusing!

Update: It got confusing.
