CALENDAR OF EVENTS
In January
First Night (January 8-11) — The
Camarilla kicks off the new live-action
chronicle (set in the new World of
Darkness) at the year’s first show in St.
Louis, MO. The Requiem begins indeed.
Early Awakening
in warped outlooks or lies that he believes
to be true. Trapped in a world of his own
misperceptions, the mage attempts to
rework reality to match his new warped
vision. What’s real and what’s not? A
mage’s Awakening gives him the power
to see the Invisible Truth — and to create
new truths. But his own mortal failings
might cause him to create falsehoods and
virtual realities mistaken for real. What
begins as a quest to strip away illusions
risks becoming a process of substituting
new phantasms for old.
WWQ: How about mood? What does
Mage: The Awakening feel like?
Bridges: I’m going for a sense of ancient
mystery. The true nature of reality is an
enigma always beyond reach. This
cosmic Mystery has a powerful pull on
the minds of the Awakened. They’re
drawn to seek it out and solve it, even if
solving one aspect only reveals a
In February
VTES Chilean Championship
(February 14) — Chilean VTES
players show they really love this
game as they mark Valentine’s Day by
determining who reigns as the
national champion in bleeding others
dry. And they say romance is dead…
SCaRE (February 16-21) — The
Camarilla’s South-Central region hosts
players from around the region and
the country in New Orleans, LA. Give
up your Vitae for Lent.
Get Forsaken! — The second game in
the all-new World of Darkness shows
up like a raging, nine-foot
lycanthrope. Werewolf: The Forsaken
lets loose this month.
VTES North American Championships
GenCon Indy last August was also the site
of the 2004 North American
Championships of Vampire: The Eternal
Struggle , White Wolf’s collectible card
game of vampiric intrigue and battle.
Friday, August 20th saw a last-chance
qualifier event
with 90 players
participating and
ending up with 13
new qualifiers.
The finalists of the
qualifier event
were Remy
Auclair, Dave
Pennington, Scott
Gomes, Robert
Goudie, and
Stefan Ferenci,
with Remy Auclair of Quebec, Canada
winning the event.
throughout the year and across North
America. The five players who
advanced to the final round were
Christian Chénard and Hugues
Bertrand of Canada, Stéphane Lavrut
who came in from France (and is the
#1 ranked
player in the
world) and
Americans Peter
Charnley and
Todd Holland.
Peter and Todd
were the first two
players ousted
from the table,
meaning the
three others
could have
continued entirely in French. They
gracefully kept to English for the benefit
of those watching. In the end, Christian
Chénard won the day (or the night) with
his Toreador antitribu deck (see box)
and became 2004’s continental
champion. Félicitations, mon ami!
Wanted, Dead or… Well, Dead —
The next Vampire: The Eternal Struggle
set hits game stores with Kindred Most
Wanted. Pre-release events run
around the globe with some very nasty
new cards in play.
In March
GAMA Trade Show (March 14-17) —
Game publishers and retailers
descend on the Riviera Hotel and
Casino in Las Vegas, NV for four days
of gambling, drinking and madly
trying to squeeze business in between
all-night benders.
Canadian Camarilla National (March)
— Camarilla members north of the
border assemble for their yearly
national event. Black wool mittens a
big hit.
Saturday, August 21st, saw the North
American Championship itself. Seventy-
two players sat down to face one
another, having qualified in events held
News and Notes from White Wolf Game Studio
Mage: The Awakening Developer Bill
Bridges gives us a peek at the
underpinnings of White Wolf’s third
World of Darkness game. Mage: The
Awakening releases this summer.
White Wolf Quarterly: So, what is a mage?
Bill Bridges: A mage is someone who’s
Awakened, whose soul has been freed of
an ancient curse afflicting mortals. Most
people’s souls are asleep, unaware of the
raw power they can tap to remake their
world. The truth has been hidden from
them many lifetimes ago; all they know is
a lie. Mages can see through the lie and
enact humanity’s birthright: magic.
WWQ: Thematically, what is Mage
about?
Bridges: Mage’s core theme is power
corrupts. There’s danger in magic.
Reweaving the Tapestry of creation can
inflate the ego and overwhelm a mage

thousand more unanswered questions.
This mood is a more metaphysical
version of the theme of the World of
Darkness as a whole — a dark, secret
conspiracy beckoning those in the
know. Instead of being a theme for
Mage , it is a mood: a pervasive
atmosphere of ciphers, secrets and
looming cosmic revelations.
WWQ: What do mages do?
Bridges: There’s a stereotype that
mystics mostly contemplate their navels
and the awesome secrets of the
universe, but that’s not what Mage is
about. Mages — especially mages
portrayed by players in a Storytelling
game — are in the thick of things,
always at ground zero for the next,
great momentous event. They don’t just
think, they act — by casting magic.
Mage characters are the secret movers
and shakers of the world. Their actions
affect the tenor of the Tapestry itself —
for good or ill. And yet, they act unseen,
their powers invisible to the Sleepers,
who are shrouded in their curse, blind
to the truth. Worse, if a Sleeper does
get a glimpse of the Invisible Truth, the
curse reacts to blind him once more —
and to punish whomever alerted him.
Mages seek ever more cryptic secrets,
the keys to greater power. Their quests
take them into unimaginable realms
and landscapes of the mind. As a mage
grows in knowledge and power, he
understands more about the world —
and realizes that it’s vaster and more
unfathomable than he ever imagined.
Only a god could possibly master such
a universe… and that’s exactly what
mages intend to become.
The small-mindedness of mortals,
however, extends even to the Awakened.
Only a select few are open-minded
enough to realize that reality is pliable
enough to accept multiple outlooks at
once. Reprogramming reality brings a
mage up against his rivals: mages who
violently disagree with his goals and who
seek to stop him. Crossing the territorial
borders of other mages can often be
construed as an act of war.

A Story Made in Hell
Infernal Plague Story Line Kit Sets the
Stage for Kindred’s Most Wanted
February sees the release of Kindred’s
Most Wanted , the latest expansion for
Vampire: The Eternal Struggle (see p. 14).
KMW focuses on the most fiendish of all
the Kindred (and those who hunt them).
Among the most vile of the Most Wanted
are the Baali, a clan of vampires who serve
the Infernal (and who get their own starter
deck). White Wolf set the stage for these
nasties last fall with the Infernal Plague
Story Line Kit , the most recent of our
quarterly story-line events for VTES . This
story-line tournament included special rules
and the exclusive Baali vampire Barbaro
Lucchese, with the fiendish ability to make
other vampires into infernalists too. Princes
from the Vampire Elder Kindred Network
(the VTES organized play structure) special
ordered the kit from their retailers and
hosted infernalism tournaments across the
globe. What can we say? Lucchese gets
around. And starting in February, he’ll be
joined by a whole host of cohorts. What
devilish fun…

Line program, see http://www.white-
