Apologies for two things: One, I know I'm long-winded and not always in the most coherent manner. And two, yes, he and his Persona are named after the same guy. I used the Italian name for the Persona to make it harder to mix them up. But if characters in the actual games can do it (cough Maya cough), so can he :P

World Snapshot:
The World of Darkness is a world where the supernatural lurks in the shadows, in the fringes and under the surface of mortal society. Vampires, werewolves, practitioners of magic, fae, ghosts, demons, and stranger things are lurking just out of sight, for those who know how to look - but once you've looked, it's hard to avoid being drawn in, and supernatural creatures seldom welcome the intrusion. In this particular iteration of the World of Darkness, a large city called Metatropolis is located in central Illinois. Metatropolis is somewhat of a sink for the supernatural - over the decades of its existence since its incorporation in the 1950s from a few smaller cities (among them Champaign and Urbana), it's seen intrusions from the spirit realm, multiple openings and closings of a portal to hell, and raging conflicts between the Camarilla and Sabbat sects of vampires (and occasionally werewolves, mages, and fae as well). The Camarilla believes vampires should rule mortal society from the shadows, with a rigid hierarchy of rules to prevent the unstable nature of vampires from breaking loose and causing havoc in a carefully-wrought society of natural apex predators, while the Sabbat are a rebel faction that sees mortals as cattle and the Camarilla as despotic overlords manipulated by the monstrous precursor vampires known as the Antediluvians.

The last great clash between the two resulted in massive damage to the city as the Sabbat made surgical strikes and the tangled alliances of the Camarilla turned in on themselves, until even the mortal world took notice and the National Guard was called in to quell the "riots". Metatropolis was nearly emptied of vampires for five years. Now, when they've just begun moving into the city, politics are in a peculiar state - Metatropolis is neither a Camarilla city nor a Sabbat city, but thanks to the Treaty of Verona, a delicate balance of power between the two exists. It's not technically a ceasefire in the eternal war between the sects, but more of a cold war, with remaining hidden from mortals paramount over all. In addition to the Camarilla and Sabbat, though, the Anarchs (a third faction who primarily adhere to a jumble of personal philosophies but usually don't like the Camarilla OR the Sabbat much) and a handful of independent vampires have taken up residence, rendering an uneasy balance of power...
