| ==The Story==
| | MITCHELL HENDERSON IS DEAD. |
|
| |
|
| Atlanta, Georgia. Home of the Braves, Coca-Cola, T.I., and probably the nastiest nightwalkers you've ever run into. The gem of the south-east is a self-contained nexus that swears no allegiance to any of the old traditions and instead encapsulates itself and the surrounding states in its own game. The hot nights of Georgia are the backdrop for Atlanta's own ''partie de la nuit''.
| | RIP. |

|
| In 1996, during the Olympic games, Atlanta suffered a bio-terrorist attack that would forever change the landscape of the city. A drug known as "Blood Dust" was introduced to Atlanta's local drug scene. A chemical off-shoot of cocaine, "Blood Dust" was twice as potent and twice as deadly. The drug would eventually find its way out of the Atlanta ghettos and into the hands of suburban teenagers, Buckhead yuppies, East-Atlanta hipsters, and Doraville Korean convenience store owners. Soon, nearly an 1/8th of Atlanta's population was addicted to the drug. It did not take long for the undesired effects of the drug to kick in as addicts began to to develop a taste for actual blood. At first, the cannibalistic murders only occurred in parts of DeKalb, but then addicts started attacking non-addicts, and those non-addicts, drained of most of their blood, would come back as vengeful, crimson-eyed monsters.

| | |
| Then the fires started. More than half of the city was engulfed in fire. A decision supposedly made by the U.S. Army, the fire burned down a majority of the city and took all of the addicts with it. According to research conducted by the CIA, the addicts synapses' were unable to register pain, and their bodies were so dense that they absorbed bullets, but their skin seemed to catch fire easily and burn quickly. Fires were then started in the dens where the monsters congregated. Unfortunately, the army had forgotten to factor in the dry, summer heat that Atlanta was experiencing then, and the fires go out of control. Soon, most of the city was up in flames as its denizens prayed for rain to put out the flames. Eventually, the fires died out and re-construction began. Buildings, families, businesses, and friendships were rebuilt, if not created from the ashes of the fires. Atlanta's economy boomed as a sense of brotherhood spread throughout the city with everyone pitching in to help.

| Atlanta will start again.

| At least, that's what the kine like to believe. To the vampires of the city, the story is vastly different. The addicts weren't addicts at all, but a new breed of kindred that had been manufactured from a mix of blood magic, science, and a deadly tradition known to only the eldest of nightwalkers. The kindred of the city tried to contain it at first, but the disease spread. More and more mortals fell to the embrace of the monsters and soon they turned on their masters. They did not discriminate between their own kind or others. As long as it had a beating heart, it was for dinner. When things looked at their worst for the kindred of the city, three neonates stood up to take back the night. The managed to get the kindred of the city out of Atlanta under the nose of the army and find a way to revert the monsters. Unfortunately, their discovery would die with them in the fires. They were immortalized as heroes for the kindred and dubbed "The G-Unit."

| It's 2010. Atlanta is nearing completion. People are celebrating, business is booming, the people are singing. What they don't know is that the streets are slowly becoming red, that there is a new menace in town.

| | |
| Atlanta slowly turns around to face her redux.

| ==The Context==
| |
| | |
| It's Vampire: The Requiem.
| |
| | |
| Game channel is #Hotlanta_REDUXXX on the Sup/tg/ IRC network. We may employ the use of Fantasy Grounds II. '''Maybe.'''
| |
| | |
| It takes places in present time, approximately 14 years after the events of the fires and of G-Unit.

| | |
| There is no Ordo Dracul, no Invictus, no Belial's Brood, no VII, etc. All player characters are Unaligned until the story's events allows them to pledge allegiance to the factions presented. However, bloodlines from any of the books related to those factions are free to be used, just any historical or canonical references to these factions are considered unimportant to the story of this game. Malkavians are going to be considered a legitimate clan and will have their existence explained in a separate section where all related things shall go. In essence, this is a Masquerade game run using the Requiem system. Terms and concepts presented in Vampire: the Masquerade are going to be carried over into this game. If you are unfamiliar with Masquerade and any of its storylines, terms, etc, don't worry. This game is only going to use probably the most superficial of concepts that are present in the Masquerade core rule book. You can pick it up as we play.
