    About this game

    This is a game of Night's Black Agents, the latest iteration of Robin Laws' Gumshoe system set in a world of espionage and bloodsucking monsters.

    Premise

    The PCs are former members of the intelligence community who have collectively uncovered a conspiracy run by nothing less than honest-to-God vampires. The vampires know they're onto them, and now these badass ex-operatives are on the run. Will they be able to dismantle the organization(s) of their enemy or will they and everything they care about be destroyed?

    Style of play

    This is a thriller first and a horror movie second, with an emphasis on spy adventure and action. The initial setting is in London but will likely move all around modern era Europe and possibly beyond. The tone we're aiming for is comparable to the Daniel Craig version of Casino Royale, mixed with a bit of occult conspiracy hijinks ala Fringe or the X-Files. That means low camp, high stakes, and plenty of secrets.
