Tonight we play the first session.
We play in Los Angeles with a Fae in erasmus. A Vamp is an Hollywood’s diva. And an Oracle with a student.

A question. Can be a faction with one only member?

Do you mean “Can we have a faction with only one PC?” If so, yes! In fact, you can play the game without any PCs from a given faction. 😀
Thanks but I mean one PC and no other PC or NPC that belongs to that faction. ^^
For example one Vampire and no wolfs or spectres.
That’s not much of a community then. Why are there no NPCs of that faction? Or is it that the PCs just have avoided/been ignorant of them thus far?
If a faction has no one besides the PC, it becomes very difficult to mark that faction, which is necessary for advancement. Also renders some faction moves like drop a name kind of useless for that PC.
On the otherhand, if it’s currently empty, it’s very easy to discover new NPCs with moves like hit the streets.
I would say an “empty faction” is a screaming power vacuum looking to be filled.
That is to say: a perfect storm.
The player answer to my question saying: I’m the only person that I know which have this power.
If the game can works anyway i’ll try in this way. ^^
Marco Andreetto – I would lean on the “that I know” part of that statement. Perhaps there’s a whole community the player’s character hasn’t met yet.
Mark Diaz Truman I’ll follow the players. ^^
I wanted to know if it was wrong.
I do think that “secret identities” aren’t really what the game is about. If someone says “I’m a werewolf, but no one knows,” I think that’s going to cause a lot of problems, generally. But it can work sometimes! And there’s no reason that you can’t start with “I just became a werewolf” and see where things go from there.
But hitting the streets and putting names to faces should be tough! It’s hard to get stuff done when you don’t know anyone in the city.
Thanks so much!! ^°
