What time period will we be playing in? Are there any restrictions on what clans may be represented in the factions? I assume that there will be one main character that we will be roleplaying and then the others will be 3rd person'd?

My idea is to play a Nosferatu that controls a large portion of the sewers in the Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Glendale, Burbank, and Downtown areas. He'd be an information gatherer with 3 other Nosferatu, one Malkavian who thinks he's a Nosferatu, and an Assemite, for the dirty work that may be necessary.
