Special Thanks
Years ago, White Wolf released a book called Chicago By Night that inspired some of the first crossover chronicles and a series of follow-up books. You might say that original guide to the Chicago of the World of Darkness sparked imaginations, but that’s not quite right. That book was the fuel. The spark came from the imaginations of countless game players. They — you — light up the ideas. Thanks for coming back to set Chicago on fire again. A companion book of novellas, called World of Darkness: Chicago — Three Shades of Night, is also available from White Wolf Publishing. The interconnected stories in that book show Chicago in action from the perspectives of Kindred, Uratha and the Awakened alike. The authors of those novellas deserve special thanks for helping out on this book, too. Janet, Myra, Sarah? Thanks again.

Summary

From the White Wolf catalog:

Chicago isn't corrupt.

It's passionate.

Genuine.

Willing to do whatever it takes

to be the city it wants to be.

And corrupt.

- Maxwell, Vampire Prince of Chicago

The Windy City Beckons

Chicago lies at the center of the web that is the American heartland. Tendrils of power, wealth, and reward stretch outward, ensnaring the selfish, greedy, and unwary. Yet, Chicago attracts its predators, too. Creatures that would have the city for their own, spinning their own webs of malice and intrigue. But among the city's towering skyscrapers and wind-swept streets, who is the spider and who is the fly?

A city setting book for all World of Darkness Games

This book includes:

• Guides to the history, geography and politics of the Windy City, twisted to suit the mysterious World of Darkness
• A huge collection of new game material, including dozens of complex and surprising characters, new threats to face and three complete stories to play
