Application | Welcome to London, 1861. The city is teaming with new ideas and inventions: Darwin’s theories, the American Civil War, and the artistic dress movement. On the surface, it is a time of being prim and proper, but even in the highest of societies lay a predator that no amount of tea or smelling salts can cure- the vampire. A regal creature, as old as man itself, the vampire of London “live” in high Victorian society- attending operas, balls, and other events. However, when the sun is out, these beautiful and mysterious beings are no where to be found- which is really where the humans should prefer them to stay.
The humans of London have little idea that the wonderful dancing companion they’ve waltzed with is, in fact, not hunting for a spouse, political alignment, or anything so messy.
Just their blood.
Victorians is a game based in 1860’s London, and is meant for mature players over the age of eighteen only. The vampire lore is derived from the works of Anne Rice, however this game is comprised of original characters only. We emphasize that this is a game meant for fun.
OPENS AUGUST 28th

This was not exactly what they had in mind when they first started the test.
There were concerns, of course, jokes even, that the whole thing would destroy the world. But the Large Hadron Collider didn’t destroy the world. No, it did the exact opposite: it opened our world. September 10, 2008, was when it all started, when scientists executed the Large Hadron Collider and They started showing up. They came unexpectedly, in small numbers, sometimes in larger ones. They claimed to be from somewhere else, somewhere magical or mundane, far or near. Somewhere else. Somewhere other than our world.
Nine days later, the Collider broke. The people though, they remained.
No one else came through, but the ones who had stayed. Ever since then, the government has been rounding them up whenever they can find them. There are questions, maybe even a few experiments, but for the most part, these people just sit around and wait. For what? For when the Collider comes back online this October.
Then they hope to be sent back |
