Initial discussion was to use the whole of Central Cali, but I was always pushing to center on the city.

I used to live closer to SF (I lived in the south and east bays – Cupertino, Campbell, Fremont, Union City, etc) so I have been to the city a number of times. I think it’s the perfect place for a game like this. It has so much history, and the atmosphere there, especially at night, can be kind of eerie.

We must converse at length after Saturday. I too live about that far from SF (opposite direction saddly) and we too are about to start Dresden Files, centered there. Saturday will be our City/Character building session. It looks like we’ll have two of us trading off GM duties, so I will get to play, but if I’m going to be GMing the cross pollenation will be very helpful.

We’ve been doing some city building on a private Forum between games for a month now, and what we’ve agreed upon so for consists of:

The THEMES for the Campaign will be:
1) The White Council is busy, *YOU* deal with it.
- The Wardens aren’t around, and someone needs to police the lesser talents,
slay the sorcerer’s, get little girls past the bridge trolls, etc.

2) Everybody’s working for somebody.
- The gangs report the Tongs. The Tongs report to the Oni. The Oni report the
(Jade Court)Vampires. They say the Vampires report to the Golden One, and he reports to the Jade Emperor. No matter who you deal with, odds are good they’re just working for someone else.

This leaves one slot for the THREAT, which will change from “Book” to “Book”
with luck with will be per session, or at worst, Monthly.

Some Potential Threats include:
Paranet members are dropping off the grid.
Suddenly over-run with red court.
*That* shouldn’t even be here!
Accords are in danger. Protect unlikely group of denizens.
We’re partnering with *WHO*?!?!
Valuable path through Nevernever needs pruning.
