Good evening night walkers! As most of you have probably noticed, the VtR venue is coasting at low speeds. One of the causes is the lack of a Storyteller, but also that nobody else has stepped up willing to run a small PRP. I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please submit your idea in a private message or discord chat so we can get that moving forward.
The demographic of the venue currently has nearly every person having power, domain position etc. That makes it really difficult for a new character to jump into the venue and have people at a relatable level or something to progress towards. The proposal here is to consolidate the positions down to the Prince, the Archon, the Seneschal and the Priscii/Whips. The Priscii would retain the powers they currently have, which allow them to have more influential power within the Domain than the current structure provides. Those who would vacate their positions would no longer receive the benefits associated with those roles and would need to get them again elsewhere (hint: priscus).
With the large population growth VtR had experienced the last couple of years there was a need for expansion of Domain positions appropriate to the size of the venue. With the shrinkage, it would make sense to do the same in the other direction. Unfortunately, with the 'assumed population' of Sacramento and the IC mentality towards these positions, it is a little harder to pull off and justify completely IC so the proposal is being made OOC since the problem is OOC in nature. No IC resentment, shaming or otherwise should be born from implementing this proposal.
Ultimately, the decision is with you- the players. The directly impacted characters would be mostly Jacque and Mable, and to some degree Lenora since she had been working towards filling the Harpy vacancy. Please feel free to discuss, ask questions and vote.
