If you want to slake your thirst without losing your humanity, then this is the drink for you! Choice of the Vampire is a gripping interactive book series by Jason Stevan Hill that gives players the gift of immortality, but also forces them to make tough decisions about their relationship with humanity. In this epic four-volume adventure, players take on the role of a bold vampire and face off against a fearless human adversary.
AN IMMERSIVE FOUR-VOLUME JOURNEY
Choice of the Vampire offers an enthralling tale that spans 850,000 words across four volumes. From the very beginning, players are thrown into a world where their reputation is determined by their swordsmanship and ability to win duels. The first chapter, ’The Battle of New Orleans,’ is set in antebellum Louisiana, and the second chapter, ’The Siege of Vicksburg,’ takes place during the American Civil War. In the third installment, ’The Fall of Memphis,’ players are transported to a post-Civil War version of the city, and the final volume, ’St. Louis, Unreal City,’ invites players to experience the excitement of the 1904 World’s Fair. As players progress through the series, they must adapt to a rapidly changing world filled with industrialization, urbanization, and social upheaval.
IMMERSE YOURSELF IN DIVERSE HISTORICAL SETTINGS
The third volume of the series, ’The Fall of Memphis,’ takes players to a post-Civil War version of the city, where former Confederates are wreaking havoc and hindering the progress of Reconstruction. And in the final volume, ’St. Louis, Unreal City,’ players have the opportunity to meet notable historical figures and indulge in the ultimate temptation: drinking their blood. Through it all, players must navigate the dangerous and mysterious world of vampires, with enemies lurking around every corner and hunters determined to eliminate their kind.
CUSTOMIZE YOUR CHARACTER AND CHOOSE YOUR PATH
In Choice of the Vampire, players have the freedom to choose their character’s gender, sexual orientation, and identity, creating a truly unique gaming experience. As they progress through the story, players can explore different aspects of humanity, such as becoming an industry investor, an underworld leader, or a patron of the arts. However, they must also be careful in selecting their victims, whether they be gamblers, artists, financiers, or even other vampires. Will players choose to sustain themselves on animal blood or give in to their darker desires and feed on their own kind?
ADAPT AND SURVIVE IN A CHANGING WORLD
As members of the vampire society, players must learn to adapt to a rapidly changing world. Caught between centuries of experience and a constantly evolving landscape, they must navigate the excesses of capitalism and the growth of a militant working class. And with the remnants of the Confederacy still causing chaos, players must also be wary of powerful figures like J.P. Morgan and Jay Gould, who seek to influence events from afar.
PROTECT SOCIETY AND MAKE TOUGH CHOICES
In Choice of the Vampire, the very existence of the vampire society is under threat as some vampires give in to their primal instincts and begin hunting their own kind. Players must make difficult decisions to protect themselves and their society. Will they be willing to sacrifice their own desires and take risks to survive in a world that is on the brink of destruction? Or will their hunger for power and blood lead to their downfall?
