*comment After Storyteller Mode, a way to rewind the game a bit (a la Choice of Magics) has been the most requested feature. I know adding this function is rare, but there is precident.
*comment I'm thinking that a very large portion of readers interested in the expansion almost a year after the initial release will be returning readers who have already played the game several times. Adding the limited ability to roll back progress to specific pre-defined points will be a celebrated feature for return players who have already experienced the game, but now want to discover everything it has to offer while also reading the new content. It should encourage achievement hunting, chatter in the forums, and good will. It is also an unobtrusive menu item that will only appear to the player if purposfully turned on.

	Dominate undead politics through cunning and violence! Will a missing Prince give you the opening to betray your sire and seize power? Or will you remain loyal?
 
	[i]Vampire: The Masquerade — Parliament of Knives[/i] is a 600,000-word interactive horror novel by Jeffrey Dean, based on "Vampire: The Masquerade" and set in the World of Darkness shared story universe. Your choices control the story. It's entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.

	The undead Prince of Canada's capital city has disappeared, and his second-in-command, Eden Corliss, wants you to find out why. You've been loyal to Corliss since she Embraced you and made you a vampire, but this could be your chance to take her place. Will you defend your sire from the accusations flying, or join forces with her rivals to bring her down?

	Ottawa's court of immortals is tight-knit and merciless, with tensions between clans that go back centuries. The Prince has been missing for four days, and old alliances are starting to crumble. How will you leverage the political chaos to your advantage? The authorities are already on high alert against a new group of Anarchs in the city, who have been breaching the Masquerade by revealing their true nature. You'll have to gather evidence to demonstrate which suspects deserve punishment, and you can't afford to guess wrong. One careless word could get you stabbed in the back—staked through the heart, and left to burn in the sun.

	• Choose from three clans, each with different gifts.
	• Flaunt your coercive dominance as a Ventrue, your dark stealth as a Nosferatu, or your heightened senses as a Toreador.
	• Master the social scene and ensnare the weak in your thrall.
	• Command your own manservant and ghoul.
	• Attack the Anarchs in the city, or help them take over.
	• Uncover the lies at the heart of Ottawa's immortal court.
	• Romance a sheriff or a seer.
	• Feast on the blood dolls of your charismatic ally.
	• Play as male, female, or nonbinary; gay, straight, or bi.

	Who will you save when the knives are out?
