Welcome to the Baltimore by Night website.  From here, you can read the history of the city, learn the layout, familiarize yourself with the Kindred within the city limits, monitor the labyrinthine political intrigues, and perhaps most importantly, check out any personalized information for your character.

 

Remember that this is the Baltimore of the World of Darkness - where the Baltimore we know is crime-ridden and poor, the WoD Baltimore is teetering on the brink of Hell.  Tall buildings are taller, shadows are longer, and the days are shorter.  The people of the city are pitiable, ravaged by criminal activity and poverty and crushed under the powerful heal of Vampires, watching from the shadows.

MOOD: The Mood is one of overwhelming fear and paranoia.  Someone is always one step ahead of you, and wherever you are, the Prince watches from the World Trade Center, with seemingly nothing occurring in his city without his knowledge.  There are ancient, powerful Kindred in the city, and they can, at a whim, destroy any neonate whom they please.  It is only a matter of how long you are useful....
