Welcome to CrystalBall, an old WoD campaign set in Asheville North Carolina, in the year 3055. Due to a very destructive war some 1000 years ago (2010 to 2025), the face of the world had changed, and there was a shift in the balance of power. Where once man held the upper hand, woman had taken over. Man is once again regaining dominance, or at least equality. And the United States has taken a severe blow in the political arena in a short ten year span of time. King Asheen, Senate Council Head, and President of the New American States is working to change this, but first those who stand against his vision must be either brought to accept his views for the future, or brought to heel.

In any group or society there are those who do not necessarily follow with the general beliefs. The supernatural, or Gifted as they have come to be called, who call Asheville home, are such people by and large. They have chosen to step away from the petty squabbles of their own kind, set asside enmities and walk an older path. That of protecting humanity and the world from those who would use and abuse both, including other humans. As such, it is not uncommon to find Garou being friendly and actually being friends with Kuei Jin, or to find one of the Fallen chatting politely with a priest. These people, these Gifted, see that there is more to the world than what their people teach, or what others expect of them. They may not always approach the problem the same way, or agree on what should be done, but what they do agree upon is their responsibility to the world and the people in it.

If you feel, this is the kind of setting you might enjoy, one where the fighting isn't among the player characters (well not accounting for the usual differences of opinions and the fact that not everyone likes everyone else) but between the player characters and those who are actively against finding a balance and improving the world for everyone, then this is possibly the game for you. It is not about the black and white, good and evil fight. It is about improving the world for the sake and future of humanity.

Now that you know what this game is about, you probably want to know how to find us. That's easy. You can either Chat here, or use your preferred irc client to join us on the Magicstar IRC Network at irc.magicstar.net the main ooc channel is #CBHQ.
