Problem Sleuth/WMG

The main characters are all Clan Malkavian vampires from Vampire: The Masquerade

...trying to escape from a lunatic asylum (and succeeding, at some indeterminate point in the story). The "Elf Tears" are human blood. Also, the "Weasel Emmisary" is a Clan Ventrue Camarilla vampire. Just because. This means the player character is Malkav/The Malkavian Madness Network.

• The reason for all the ananchronisms is because the Prospitians only learned culture from what they could salvage from humanity's wreckages.
• The people are literally white skinned, but have mutated/evolved into being less carapaces and more human like (light on science but cool to think)
