Went to the circus - it was evil. Saved some poor Windego girl who was brainwashed into thinking she was a Croatan. Fought Black Spirals and saw a ninja. Well, didn't really see a ninja, but the crazy ringmaster's pocket watch showed him kill an asian vampire. Go, Ninja! Apparently asian "vampires" aren't like normal ones. Can travel the umbra. Bad news. Mirror-mirror version of goofy scientist guy is a jerk. Crazy mages are called marauders and are creepy. Or maybe it was just the one guy. Don't care. Don't want to see any more of them.

A World of Darkness
Where is the World of Darkness? It's right here, all around us, wherever the light ends and the shadows rise. We tell ourselves comforting lies, but humans know we aren't alone. There are monsters abroad in the night, where a war rages for the destiny of the earth. Vampires and werewolves, witches and faeries, gods and devils each claim their due. Yet the monsters know what to fear most of all: the darkness in the human heart. Salvation and damnation lie in our hands, but it's so easy to turn your face away.
The Quest
The world stands at the brink of Apocalypse. One pack of Garou and their newfound changeling friends are all that stand between Creation and Oblivion. To stop it, they face a flood of evils, allies who should be enemies, riddles on top of enigmas, and the past rising up to meet them. The guide on their path to destiny seems to be one unstable mage...and all the exceptional weirdness he brings with him.
