I'm an extreme fan of Hotline Miami, and I enjoy good urban fantasy from time to time. However, the teenager thing is putting me off. Is it possible to portray a 'grown up'? At least 25+.

Hmm. I'm hesitant, as one of the themes I was planning on working with mostly was the "teen hero" angle. Though I don't want to alienate anyone, it'd be a bit out of place if you were playing the only "adult" character. Send me a PM and we'll see if we can't work something out.

Oh, man, you've just introduced to me to a lot of potentially cool things. For that alone, thanks!This is exactly the sort of quirky, unapologetically-'80s-loving idea I didn't know I'd been waiting for. So much so that, even though I've been meaning to do without RPGs for a little while, I'm immediately backpedaling on my position because I want in.I know you used it as an example in the premise description, but a teenage werewolf in the eighties is just the role I'd want to play. Can I, pretty please? I still have to work out more of a concept (gonna refamiliarize myself with some archetypal '80s characters), but right now I'm thinking a track runner named "Barry Talbot" in homage of Barry Allen (The Flash) and Lawrence Talbot (The Wolf Man), possibly also with some nickname that winks at his true nature.Speaking of, are these monsters "out" or do they keep a lid on their alter egos as much as possible?

First of all, thank you for your passionate interest!

I have no problems with a werewolf, as in fact I was just watching Teen Wolf the other night. Send me a PM and we can talk out the specifics of your character.

With our characters, they generally have two choices regarding how much they embrace their monstrosity. They either try to lead normal, mundane daytime lives with their supernatural nature concealed, or they abandon normal human society all together and fully embrace the "underworld." That said, there is something of a [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Masquerade]"masquerade"[/url] in place where the vast majority of the population has no idea of the existence of the supernatural. Perhaps one of the most likely motivations for our characters in their "heroism" would be to keep the existence of the supernatural a secret.

However, that said, I'm not about to turn this into a game of VtM politics. I'm trying to strike a balance between "keeping our alter egos a secret" and "not caring too much about covering our tracks," only because the latter is boring. I guess when in doubt, go with whatever is cooler, or more fun to play.
