| rdfs:comment | - Victorian Age: Vampire is a setting for Vampire: The Masquerade that many felt was an obvious choice: the Gothic Victorian period. The Victorian era gave birth to many of the modern tropes that the World of Darkness draws from (gentlemen vampires, man-made monsters, ghosts, faeries), so it was a natural choice. It was a first for White Wolf and the World of Darkness, in that it was the first time a game line had been given two distinct historical eras (the first being the Dark Medieval).

| abstract | - Victorian Age: Vampire is a setting for Vampire: The Masquerade that many felt was an obvious choice: the Gothic Victorian period. The Victorian era gave birth to many of the modern tropes that the World of Darkness draws from (gentlemen vampires, man-made monsters, ghosts, faeries), so it was a natural choice. It was a first for White Wolf and the World of Darkness, in that it was the first time a game line had been given two distinct historical eras (the first being the Dark Medieval). It was hoped by many that Victorian Age: Vampire would be successful enough to spawn its own series, much like the Dark Ages line had with Dark Ages: Werewolf, Dark Ages: Mage and so forth. Unfortunately, only three VA:V books were produced (and a trilogy of novels) before the World of Darkness ended. Werewolf: The Wild West however takes place in a similar time, so even if it takes place on another continent it can be used supplementally.
