Description
“That is will never come again is what makes life so sweet.”– Emily DickinsonIt’s hard to say Emily was wrong; immortality comes with burdens aplenty and none live so free as the mortals ignorant to the monsters that live by night. Never forget: the Kindred are cursed. They feed on the living, burn in the sun, and wrestle for eternity with an alien predator that lives in their soul. Only the most bizarre and twisted of individuals goes looking for the Embrace — unless they have an imperfect understanding of what being a vampire means.What makes someone choose to live beyond death, then? Ivy LaRoux (1:14) sees an eternity’s worth of knowledge and recognition. Joshua Crozier (20:22) has no choice at all. Schmendrick (34:38) is forced to decide under duress, and Rebecca Mitchell (51:12) can only choose after wrestling with cultural contradictions. Welcome to The All Night Society, a Vampire: the Masquerade Camarilla chronicle.Note: This episode was republished following a technical mistake in the original release.

Prelude 3 - After: “All change is not growth, as all movement is not forward.” – Ellen GlasgowThere’s an irony in immortality. When you’re set to live forever, you become even more afraidof the things that can kill you. For Kindred, that means being forever-paranoid about the fourthings most likely to do you in: sunlight, fire, hunger, and other vampires. This is whyKindred tend to be creatures with strict routines. The better you know your surroundings andthe creatures that populate them, the easier it is to keep yourself safe. They need an awfully good reason to switch up the scenery. None of our characters were Embraced in the city they now call home — so how did they get here? Ivy LaRoux (1:17) and Joshua Crozier (19:35) are refugees of a sort, each fleeing their former homes under threat of Final Death. Schmendrick (34:00) and Rebecca Mitchell (47:33) arrive by choice — hunters, instead of the hunted.
