3.67 - The Price of Change

After the parade arrived at the Val Miller Family Protection Building, the coterie and the prince’s team entered the prepared interview room, which already hosted three Tzimisce bodyguards. The prince began his public address, and as a bodyguard passed the false shaft to Toastarosa, Everett gave the code word. In the ensuing chaos, Evangeline dove to retrieve her gun, and Val tore a zulo in half and hurled it, taking out another Tzimisce. But the coterie face down a magazine of silver bullets tr...

3.66 - Midnight

The coterie emerged from the shock of an explosion of confetti to join the start of the parade. They took to their individual floats, Val forced to sit atop a poor facsimile of Cherry, Evangeline seated in the saddle of a large Dalmatian, and Everett dressed in a ridiculous outfit poised to sing. The sheriff sang his selection of songs to a mixed reception from the crowd, but will the enthusiasm of his Chappell Roan duet with Toasta Rosa be enough to quell any lingering suspicions from the princ...

3.65 - Good Luck, Babe

The coterie used what little time they had left to put the final pieces in place for the prince’s arrival. Everett called the prince, convinced him that Doris had turned into a wight and was subsequently put down, and chose which songs he would sing from his float, Val received a slightly ominous message from the sheriff saying they would discuss how to deal with the beast later, and Evangeline sent Percy out of harm’s way. But will any of them survive the explosion to see their plan enacted? Fe...

3.64 - Picking Favourites

The coterie made their final plans in the apartment being prepared for the prince’s address and subsequent execution. Val and Everett decided they would douse the rest of the building in silver nitrate and store hidden weapons in the apartment to take care of the prince and his bodyguards, Evangeline insisted on talking through various contingencies, and Veron Ferron made arrangements to decorate the room to conceal everything without arousing the prince’s suspicion.

3.63 - Planning a Regicide

The coterie found themselves facing the logistical challenges of deposing a prince. Matthew Theobald took over relocating the families of the daytime officers, Val took Evangeline’s suggestion of using the hospital holding cells to protect Will, and Everett and Evangeline accepted the expertise of Veron Ferron to arrange safe spaces from the silver nitrate. Nosferatu tech expert, Unity Castille, arrived on the scene, but even with many capable minds working together, will they pull off their gra...

3.62 - Design & Technology

As the clan meeting continued, Everett revealed that Matthew Theobald would become the new prince and that mortals would have representatives in the new system, and in the end the plan received unanimous support. The clans offered their various expertise in enacting the assassination and Evangeline called an end to the meeting. Madre stayed behind to question Val about the Brian Tombstone incident and secured 10 new Brujah in compensation. But now it’s time to update the future prince. Featuring...

3.61 - Making Good

The coterie scrambled to reassert their control over the meeting after Val punched Brian Tombstone into Michael Arden, who then retaliated by boiling the Brujah’s blood. After Everett convinced Madre to delay punishing Arden, Evangeline reminded the clan leaders of the danger that the unstable prince posed to them all, and Everett presented their plan to forcibly replace Toasta Rosa with a democratic system. Some clan leaders have been convinced, but can the others stop their infighting long eno...

3.60 - Tombstone Negotiations

Before the coterie met with the clan leaders, Evangeline devised a strategy for the meeting, and Val and Michael Arden had a heated discussion about clan politics. Everett received a call from the prince, who informed him that he would be celebrated with a parade the following day, and Everett suggested a logistical change to make it easier to assassinate the prince amidst the festivities. But with Val having just lost control and punched a fellow Brujah, how will her sudden violence impact the ...

3.59 - A Very Good Sheriff

At the station, Everett and Evangeline discussed the upcoming clan leader meeting. Evangeline realized the Tremere were leaderless and if Michael Arden were to step into that role, they could use his vote, so they took him to the arcade and vaguely threatened the remaining Tremere into electing him. Meanwhile, Val picked up groceries for Will and reflected guiltily on Margery’s death, thereby regaining some of her humanity. But can the coterie convince the clan leaders to help them murder a prin...

Everett was awoken by the new Venture clan leader, Vinlynn Von Kindred, who offered his support in exchange for details of the treasonous plan. But can the coterie finally bring an end to their scheme? Feat...

3.57 - Competing Priorities

When Doris had a vision of precisely how to take out the Right Hand of Lilith, the coterie jumped into action. Reproducing Doris’s vision, Everett slammed into the Right Hand with his car, Val pummeled him, Evangeline shot him, and Doris decided to end it all by diablerizing him. With her new powers, Doris saw that she must leave New Haven to keep the wider Pyramid away, and after tearful farewells, set out with Margery’s head for company. Can the rest of the coterie finally usurp the prince? Fe...

3.56 - The Sea of Souls

The coterie encountered Dylan Zane, who refused to give up anything incriminating, but when he was uncooperative, Doris entered his mind and gained all of his access codes. After quickly perusing his computers, Evangeline confirmed Teddy’s direction on the CCTV and Val uncovered the Pyramid 2.0’s plan to eliminate its investors, including the Prince. Everett offered this intel to the Prince as a big win, but Toasta Rosa was skeptical and still livid with the sheriff. Featuring our Storyteller Ry...

3.54 - The Pyramid You.0

As the coterie surveyed the bloody scene, Everett deduced that the more powerful Tremere had all been killed, leaving the Pyramid 2.0 with only Dylan Zane and his brand new recruits. They returned to the station, Doris holding Margery’s head, Evangeline refusing to work and insisting on only searching for Teddy, and Val with orders to enlist the help of the Brujah to find the remaining Tremere. Will they extract the location of the Pyramid’s new headquarters from the only member they have in cus...

3.53 - Three Best Friends

The coterie took their final desperate swings at their foes. Val was bitten by mosquitoes into torpor, Evangeline inadvertently turned the swarm on herself, and Everett cleverly used pepper spray and the sprinkler system to finish them off. Meanwhile, in the sky, Doris used her final well of blood within her to frenzy and dealt the killing blow to Lucius Balefire. How will the coterie avoid the retribution of the remainder of Red Cell, The Pyramid 2.0, and the Prince? Featuring our Storyteller R...

3.52 - Lucius in the Sky with Doris

Facing Lucius Balefire with a hostage and a swarm of mosquitos, the coterie had to act quickly. Everett wanted to talk, but Val immediately flung Pentecost’s body at Margery to get her clear, and Margery did not survive. Doris successfully stabbed Lucius with the Shaft, but he grabbed her and took off with her upward into the sky. On the ground, Evangeline tried to reason with the swarm but instead they turned on Val, who quickly fell into torpor. How much more destruction will Lucius wreak befo...

Everett relented and let Doris hold the shaft to take the first strike, Evangeline encountered a vengeful mosquito, and the coterie soon found themselves in a firefight and pinned inside the building, with Val carrying an unconscious Pentecost. Inevitably, they came face to face with Balefire, a figure composed of thousands of mosquitos, and a familiar hostage. Will Doris give in to ...

3.49 - The Ritual

As Doris continued to construct the Shaft of Belated Dissolution, the rest of the coterie made final preparations. Everett negotiated with Red Cell to provide protection during Doris’s ritual and requested Joslyn St. James for extra security, Val was agitated by the revelation that Teddy sought to sire himself with Sheriff Cross’s blood, and at the hospital, Evangeline left a letter for Dylan Zane and put Troy on obtaining CCTV footage of Teddy’s departure. Can Doris complete the shaft or will i...

The coterie is running out of time to enact their plan. Evangeline began priming the Clan leaders for the impending coup against the Prince, Val received a gift of silver bullets from Matthew Theobald, Everett secured a building in the Gangrel quarter for Doris to work, and she set out to create the Shaft of Belated Dissolution undisturbed.

3.46 - Secrets Revealed

Returning from the club, a drunk Evangeline told Val how she had secretly fed off of Teddy when she was first embraced, a secret that Val was compelled to reveal when Teddy called in the favour she owed him. The next morning, Teddy had left town, seemingly to become kindred himself. Back at the station, Doris told Everett that the Left Hand is nearby, and Everett was reluctant to look for Teddy when they had more urgent priorities. Will Matthew Theobald’s unexpected arrival help the coterie’s pl...

3.45 - Marriage Troubles

Val escorted Evangeline to the club Sinful Pleasures, where Evangeline immediately got drunk and danced the night away, while Val kept careful watch. At the station, Doris wrote up her findings from the Right Hand’s journal and concluded that that they should all just be patient, and Everett found the dossier to be full of enough information about the clan leaders to gain leverage on any one of them. But can the coterie use these discoveries to get the big win they desperately need? Featuring ou...

At the Malkavian headquarters, Val remained trapped in her violent compulsion. In the ensuing tussle, Everett accidentally killed Sam Buttwise, but was saved from retribution when Voticia Maddama used the situation to seize power for herself. At the rec centre, Doris was struck by a need to cause harm, and mesmerized Evangeline into burying herself in the corpse pile, at which point the compulsion ended, and a furious Evangeline emerged. Will the incessant in-fighting finally destroy the coterie...

3.41 - Guards! To me!

Still at the mercy of her beast, Doris hid in a closet and berated Evangeline, who decided it was best to wait for Doris’s compulsions to wear off and search the recreation centre in the meantime. Back at the Malkavian headquarters, Val contended with her own beast. Everett tried to placate her, but when Val moved to attack Sam Buttwise, Everett stepped in and found himself pushed through a wall by his deputy. Will the coterie overcome their beasts in time to salvage what’s left of the night? Fe...
