Vampire: The Masquerade: L.A. By Night

"This morning, when the sun rose over Los Angeles,  people of this city - the mortals - woke up, and they went to work. They took care of their children, they went to school, and they did their shopping. They drove places. They met for lunch. They had dinner. But our vampires didn't do any of these things. While the sun was in the sky, they were comatose. Their lungs didn't breath, their eyes didn't blink, and their hearts didn't beat. Because they're dead. But when the sun sinks below the horizon, their eyelids flutter open. They awaken, into the night."

Vampire: The Masquerade - LA by Night is a live-play chronicle for Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition. Set in the revived and more contemporary World of Darkness detailed in 5th Edition, the story centers on the Anarch-ruled Los Angeles. On the city where the Movement all began.

Summary
"LA, by night, is a city in turmoil. In the 1940s, young vampires rebelled, and the streets ran red with elder blood; and the Anarch Free States were born, under the leadership of the legendary Jeremy MacNeil. The Anarchs carved the city up into neighborhood baronies, and they claimed that this was a city of new promise for all vampires. The city of equality and justice among the undead. But, as with all kinds of justice, your milage may vary; and that's doubly true when you're a vampire. Tonight, the Camarilla has abandoned the city of San Francisco, and Prince Vannevar Thomas has claimed praxis over Los Angeles. The Anarchs? Not having any of this. But they must respond. Quickly. Before the Camarilla takes over the city that they call theirs."
