Official V:EKN Sanctioned "Storyline Events"

Greed and distrust drive the in-fighting and factionalizing that threaten to
destroy the Sabbat's fragile hold on Baltimore. The Camarilla and other clans
watch with great interest, waiting for a weak moment and a grand opportunity.
The internal and external pressures are mounting and the arrival in the New
World of the mysterious Kindred Semsith signals an inevitable tugging on the
strings of power.

The brackish sea scents adequately cover the odor of decaying flesh aboard the
Lionel Blaire.  Stowing-away on the container ship for the duration of the
Atlantic crossing, Semsith butchered her Cockney crew upon their docking in the
Port of Baltimore. For the third straight rainy night Semsith returns unnoticed
to the ship, once more soaked to his waist in blood and foul water. Tonight,
however, his covert mission has been especially rewarding.  Semsith achieves a
full and proud sneer as he savors the perfume of the greasy smoke clinging to
his overcoat. He rests in the Captain's quarters, racing toward sleep, warmed
equally by the sight of the dawn sky aglow with fires set by his hand and by the
promise of rewards for that which he has set in motion.

Throughout the month of February 2002, the results of select Vampire: The
Eternal Struggle tournaments from around the world will be recorded and used by
White Wolf to determine the outcome of the seesaw struggle to control Baltimore.

Attend a designated Storyline Tournament and bring a clan-based deck
representing who you'd like to control Baltimore. At least seventy-five percent
of your deck's crypt is to be comprised of a single-clan.  Complete the rest of
your crypt in any manner you please.  The tournament Historian will make a
record of key battles and of the winning clan at your event and forward the
results to White Wolf.  Here's your chance to finish this chapter of Baltimore's
history.

EVENT INFO:  These events will not count toward player ratings and because of
the fun nature of the events, would be an ideal time for new players to attend
thier first tournament.  This event will also mark the first distribution of the
new promo-only card, The Meddling of Semsith.

Keep checking the V:TES page at http://www.white-wolf.com/vtes for updates on
the locations and dates of Storyline Events near you.

EVENT FORMAT:  Players will bring decks that follow the regular V:EKN
Constructed Format rules (60-90 card libraries, No Repeat Actions in effect,
etc.) except that at least 75% of each player's crypt must be comprised of a
single-clan. The rest of their crypt and their entire library may be completed
in any manner the player chooses.

Have fun!
