If you’re new in town or just new to this whole actual-play thing, you’re tuning into "RIP The Ripper" a Vampire: The Fifth Edition one-shot set in Victorian Age London, bought to you by Lore By Night Productions.
This one-shot was broadcast live on the World of Darkness Twitch channel on 19th December 2020 as part of its "Vamily Holiday" charity event. It was arguably one of the most popular actual-plays during the event.
This podcast may contain scenes of violence and topics of disturbing natures. Viewer discretion is advised. Remember to judge the monsters, not the mortals portraying them.
Our story begins on 24th December 1891. It is the very end of a time of our history called the Victorian Period, named after the then longest-serving monarch, Queen Victoria who held much of the world in a tight iron fist from that famous palace at the heart of the British Empire, the capital of The United Kingdom, the once Great Britain. As you travelled further East, the neat cobbled stones paths are replaced by shit and mud, colourful exotic buildings become dirty grey terraced shanties that dominate the claustrophobic streets of Whitechapel, famous for its violence, crime, overcrowding, sex and of course, Jack the Ripper, who has not killed anyone for some 10 months...allegedly.
It is here, that our ragtag coterie is thrust into the task of stopping the Ripper once and for all.
