Hi there, I am Vandel and most know me from doing maps (in Blades in the Dark & Band of Blades)
Some time ago on G+ (rest in peace) I posted about my Playset & Playbooks of Midnight Empire: City of Bones, which found some decent interest. It is an exploding blend of World of Darkness, Supernatura-themed TV Shows, Rock, Metal, Southern Gothic, True Detective & an oversaturated tongue-in-cheek edgyness.
In the next play installment, I regulary test out little hacks with my open table group, its going down the southern desert roads into a no man’s land of dusty motels, ghost towns, weirdly well stocked gas stations, mines full of voidstone remnants, Super Mutant enclaves, rag-tag deputy sheriffs and bitchy citizens.
Midnight Empire is my playfield for all sorts of X Files weirdness, conspiracy theories and modern horror settings.
Bleeding Shadows, is a bloody & explosive road movie, like a collaboration of Tarantino(Pulp Fiction/Kill Bill), Tom Tykwer (Cloud Atlas / Babylon Berlin) & Park Chan-wook (Oldboy/Stoker/The Handmaiden) & Hellboy
