For decades, Vancouver has been seen as a safe haven to escape the past.

Mind's Eye Theater - Awakening, The (Current (2005))
Host: (White Wolf Publishing / Camarilla)
Mature (18+), Newcomers (maturity preferred)

It is said that those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them. The Awakened have many stories that credit greater beings with the creation of something so vainglorious as a mage. Sometimes, however, history is not content to whisper wisdom from the past. While the Technocracy and the Traditions fight over paradigmatic-and often dogmatic- details of their shared magical condition, with the lives of the Sleeping populace as a stomping ground, something that came before them all has been watching with interest and making plans for improvements. What are lives and avatars to the ultimate deus ex machina: Autochthon?
