The Protagonist was the main character of the Hardsuit Labs version of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2, and is directly controlled by the player – their personality, deeds, clan, etc. are entirely up to the player.
Story[]
Enter the night as one of several humans inexplicably attacked in a Mass Embrace, suddenly thrown into the dangerous and ruthless vampire politics of Seattle. Tensions between the factions in Seattle are at an all-time high, and this unsanctioned attack throws the status quo into chaos. An inquest is called in order to get to the bottom of the mystery, and you’re the star witness… whether you like it or not.
As one of the few free agents in town, you will choose a side and play an important role in the factional war to control the blood trade. But can your allies answer why you were made, who’s pulling the strings, and who your real enemies are? Or will you be more concerned with what you can do to get ahead among the vampire elite? The choice is yours.
In your character creation, you can choose what you were in life, you can say that you were a cop, or a coroner, and so when you go into a police station that's gonna have a different feel than if you were not a cop. We have lots of those little decisions that you make along the way that build upon and into your experience going through the story.[1]
Generation[]
The Protagonist starts as a Thin Blood, which means their generation is 14th or 15th.
It is expected that they will earn the right to diablerize a Cainite who has been condemned to Final Death in a Blood Hunt, allowing them to become a full-blooded, 13th-generation Kindred of their victim's clan.
