Welcome to the web pages for the Chains of Steel mailing list.

A campaign world where vampire Elders manipulate the futures of younger ancillae and each other, playing games with the lives of their pawns. Players take on the roles of Princes, Clan Heads and other prominent individuals and deal openly with the rest of the world through the global mailing list, or scheme privately to their own ends in off-list personal mailings. (There is moderation from a referee for those circumstances where the action of one player directly affects another)

Who owns who? Where do the allegiences lay? Who will be the next victim in the eternal struggle for power?

Chains is an evolving, involving, political campaign and there is always room for more characters. We also play impromptu live and table top games. All you need to do is subscribe, and you too could be part of what we are building. And at the end, we will have created a complete setting that can be used by other players and referees.

Chains of Steel grew from a number of Vampire Campaigns held over the last ten years. Initially based just in one city, it was decided to see if a world could be shaped from the creative input of a number of different players nationwide. This is the continuing result of a lot of effort put in by these people.

The plot twisted as it is, is due to the combined efforts of the players. You too can help to shape a world. Everything that is needed should be on these webpages.
