The Masquerade from Whitewolf is a dark creation of horror, a role playing game set in the universe where magic is real, people do turn into animals with the coming of the full moon and vampires hide in the shadows, running the government, helping themselves to our wealth and our blood. This graphic novel, with a foreword by Christopher Golden, tells three tales of three of the Clans.
The Toreador, the artists of the night, always trying to defeat final death by making that perfect painting, that great movie, that song nobody will forget. They seem weak but they rule the night life as much as any other Clan. Victoria Ash even makes an appearance.
The Nosferatu, the most ugly yet most stable of all the vampires, they suck up information and facts like most suck up blood. They move among us like shadows and we never hear a thing. But they hear everything.
The Ventrue, powerful, noble, this suits with fangs are as likely to take you to court as bite you. Lawyers, money and guns, they run the Clans. At least those who allow them to.
The Kindred are here to stay, in the printed pages, on the small television screen and now in the pages of this graphic novel. Do you dare open the cover and feast on what is inside?

Excellent story. Can't wait to read more by this author.
