Chicago by Night Second Edition is a revision of Chicago by Night, the sourcebook about the city of Chicago in the Classic World of Darkness.
This Second Edition incorporates changes both to the game rules from Vampire: The Masquerade Second Edition and to the Chicago setting from the Werewolf crossover story Under a Blood Red Moon. With the death of Lodin in that story, the office of Prince of Chicago is now available to the most qualified – or most cutthroat – candidate. Now, the players' coterie might find themselves in a position to play kingmaker, or even to take the princedom for one of their own.
Summary
- From the White Wolf Catalog:
- At Death's Own Wake...
- Chicago, favored city of the Damned, is not as it once was. The streets, which have tasted blood time and time again, feasted as never before during the attack of the savage werewolves. Decades of effort fell in less than a month. That which had been immortal is no more. Crowning this pile of despair is the torn corpse of the prince, the last vestige of immortality ripped out by red-stained claws.
- The Dead Can Dance
- The city has become a swirling vortex, pulling in fresh victims from every direction. From across the world the undead swarm, drawn in by Chicago's suffering. Who can resist its desperate call? Who can survive its tragic fate?
- Chicago by Night, Second Edition includes:
- A full description of the horror of Chicago, brought on by and compatible with Under a Blood Red Moon
- Complete information on the Kindred, geography and history
- A complete reference for adding stories of intrigue to your chronicle.
