No One Races for Free | Capital District: After Dark — Season 2, Session 3
In Troy, information has a price.
Eddie O’Callaghan gets behind the wheel for an underground street race where the real prize isn’t money. With Aoife and Priya still missing, the coterie follows a trail of bicycles, surveillance, and increasingly disturbing clues into Watervliet.
What begins as a favor for the Thin-Bloods becomes something far more dangerous as the coterie closes in on whoever has been watching Troy. Every mile brings them closer to answers—and to predators who may already know exactly who they are.
Capital District: After Dark is a Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition actual play set in New York’s Capital Region, where hunger, politics, favors, and consequences shape every night.

Baron Patch Jones gathers Troy’s Anarchs at the Foundry and puts a price on real answers, drawing the coterie into a search that leads from uneasy reunions and new alliances to an abandoned riverside warehouse, a stranded Tesla, and evidence that someone has begun targeting people connected to the region’s pharmaceutical interests.
Meanwhile, Anya attempts to repair her relationship with Velvet, Shiloh gets his first real taste of Troy politics, Eddie finds his place among the coterie, and Connor starts pulling at a thread that may connect Oliver Davies’ death to something much larger.
