Customer Reviews

Requiem Chronicler's Guide breathes new life into an already great game.
The Requiem Chronicler's Guide adds a large number of new game options and suggestions for playing Vampire. Far from being a book of powers, this product is a collection of essays on how to alter the core game in order to meet a variety of different concepts. From playing vampire kings to solo play, the Chronicler's Guide offers a wealth of new roleplay opportunities.

The only downside I can think of is that most Storytellers will only use a small percentage of the product. If you want new powers (Devotions, Bloodlines, etc) you wont find any here. If you're just playing Vampire this book is useless, as it's entirely about how the Storyteller can tell more compelling stories and modify the core rules and concepts to shake things up and present Vampire in a different light. If you like Vampire but would prefer to tinker with it and try out something new then this is an excellent buy.

Great Storyteller Book
Here is a great book for helping Storytellers (ST or like the Dungeon master for World of Darkness games). Lots of really helpful hints on story/plot development, character development, running episodic or long term chronicles, and how to make your NPC's/Villains/Antagonists really come to life for your players. Even if you dont run Vampire the Requiem this book is really useful for all the World of Darkness game lines (like Mage/Werewolf/Changeling/Promethian).

I use it often and has really come in handy for me and my games.

OK But no Cigar
There is a lot of interesting information here, just most of it is out side the box so to speak.
