Another week, another exploration of nWoD/CofD crossover. This time, with an eye to the upcoming Dark Eras, we’re taking a look at Vampire: the Requiem and approaches to integrating it with Changeling: the Lost. There are some thematic similarities: both vampires and changelings are parasites in different ways, both have a tricksy relationship with time and memory, and both are deep into politics. (We’d also pay good money to see a Daeva/Fairest walk-off, just saying.) But how do the games align mechanically? Do Keepers take notices of leeches or might Kindred try to feed on fetches? Is there proper, actual crossover material out there? We dig into these questions and more as we trapeze between editions, so get your grip powder and your… neckguards? is that a thing? in place. On we go!
If you too have thoughts and opinions on bloodsuckers (the supernatural kind) or just, you know, whatever:

I got the ways and means to New Orleans
I’m going down by the river where it’s warm and green
I’m gonna have a drink and walk around
I got a lot to think about, oh yeah…
