• Of course, the Black Chantry design team is very aware of the Vampire: The Masquerade "V6" edition open playtest. But remember that this is a test, and we do not yet know which of the proposed changes will stick for the actual new edition. It will be a while until things are clear enough to base any future VTES design on.
An open playtest of a new edition of Vampire: The Masquerade was launched at Gen Con! Get the playtest material at Demiplane or Drivethrugames. Read more at the World of Darkness site. Some of the proposed changes have surprised many (removal of the Protean discipline, no mention of Hecata, the return of the Giovanni clan, the new disciplines Corruption and Tellurgy, etc.). Naturally, the Black Chantry design team is in touch with the VTM developers and follows what happens closely. Keep in mind that a playtest is just that – a test – and there's no telling yet which of the proposed changes will make it into the finished edition. It will take some time before the picture is clear enough to build any future VTES design around it.
