Vampire: The Masquerade Introductory Kit
Vampires.
Bloodsucking corpses returned from the grave to feast on the blood of the living. Monsters damned to Hell who avoid their punishment through life unlawfully stolen. Erotic predators who steal their sustenance from innocent, struggling - or, perhaps, willing? - men and women.
Since time's beginning, humanity has spoken of the vampire - the undead, the demonic spirit embodied in human flesh, the corpse risen from its grave possessed of a burning hunger for warm blood. From Hungary to Hong Kong, from New Delhi to New York, people throughout the world have experienced chills of delicious terror contemplating the deeds of the night-stalking vampire. The vampire has haunted novels, movies, TV shows, video games, clothing, even breakfast cereal.
But these stories are merely myths, right?
Wrong.
Vampires have walked among us from prehistoric times. They walk among us still. They have fought a great and secret war since the earliest nights of human history. And this eternal struggle's final outcome may determine humanity's future - or its ultimate damnation.
