Kings of New York
New York, the city that never sleeps. An Ivory Tower. A cesspool. Both Babylon and Bohemia. Home to those who call themselves Sabbat. Denizens of the night, they cry to defy the tyrannous stars and slake their thirst upon those who would see them kneel. Still, they stand at a precipice of inevitability. Can the children of Caine stay united in their holy war, or will they fall upon themselves once more? Only time will tell, and the end of days grows closer with each passing night...
Kings of New York is a One World by Night, Sabbat Vampire, Mind's Eye Theatre game hosted the 4th Monday of every month on our discord.

KoNY will be hosting a raffle for fun prizes next game for your PCs, and help raise money for Palla Grande! One dollar gets you one ticket, with no limit to the amount of tickets you may buy. We will be doing a raffle for each prize at this coming game. Only one person may win one prize (lets spread the wealth). Each prize won comes with an appropriate story for your PC on how they gained their prize. Any prizes won by a player for PC not based in KoNY, have no guarantee they may redeem their prizes in their home game. You must still spend the experience points to get these prizes when need be, if you don’t have enough at the time of winning it can be redeemed when you do.

Good news everybody!
We will be holding another kony raffel. Some of you i know where here last time we did this right when kony came back to new york, but this one is going to directly benefit some of the secret projects we have planned for Palla grande.
As before each ticket will be 1 dollar and you can buy as many as you like. Kony PCs will get permission to immediately buy whatever they win, we cant promises that to traveling players but we can certainly try.
some of the examples of prizes:
merits
backgrounds
powers
items (better items then I would normally aprove)
specialized skills
and the ever mysterious mystery box
As normal I want to thank everyone for their continued support of the game and I hope you are enjoying the hell out of it.

Front Page: The True Story of the Policeman's Ball
A couple weeks back, New York Times editor Rupert Berkley wrote a piece describing the heroicism of the Deputy Mayor and the Commissioner shortly before their death. As inspirational as that piece was, it painted a false picture of the Deputy Mayor. Were it not for his crooked schemes and his crooked deeds, the Commissioner and a lot of other innocent lives would not have been lost.
Our tale begins several months back when our self-serving civil servant decided that he was not getting enough money for his work. Rather than doing what any other self-respecting employee would do - ask for a raise - our Deputy Mayor decided that he would try to extort the mob.
So yeah, he was not only crooked, but an idiot.
Using the judges he had in his pocket, the Deputy Mayor pulled strings to ensure that high ranking members of the mafia would pay him off, rather than face jail time. Realizing that they were being extorted, the mafia family sent in their agents to work in the Deputy Mayor's office and uncover the extent of the conspiracy that was pulling their strings.
But they were not the only force investigating the matter. Forces of good began to get suspicious as well. The Commissioner was the first to put the pieces together. He started gathering evidence to place the mafia on RICO charges and the Deputy Mayor on corruption charges. The mafia sent in Il Martello ("The Hammer"), a hitman from Italy to kill them both. The hitman took care of both the Deputy Mayor and the Commissioner, but not from making a big scene out of the mess - the Policeman's Ball.
We're not sure if Il Martello was an amateur or a madman, but in any event, he's likely dead now. Unconfirmed rumors speculate that the mob was not happy with Il Martello. Yesterday, the remains of an Italian man matching the height and body-size of the hitman with his clothing was found in a burning car. This was likely the fate of Il Martello.
Also found yesterday was all the evidence the Commissioner had gathered. His widow had been cleaning out his safety deposit box and came across his heart-felt note to his widow, telling her that he loved her and that should anything happen to him, the true story of what was going on should be told to Internal Affairs. Also included in the lockbox were hundreds of documents - including financial statements - linking all the pieces of the story together. Our source at IA indicates the investigation is still ongoing, but in his words "the evidence seems pretty damning".
When we called up the Mayor's office, they denied involvment or knowledge of the Deputy Mayor's actions. Needless to say, this scandal will effect voting in November.
Nevertheless, for the time being, the city can rest easy tonight now knowing the real truth behind the tragic events in June.
