Background

Dead Man Walking is a World of Darkness campaign set in an alternate version of Battle Creek, Michigan. The city was chosen due to the players' familiarity with the actual layout of the city, as well as its significance as a waypoint between Detroit, Michigan, and Chicago, Illinois. For all intents and purposes, all references to Battle Creek within this wiki are only to reference the alternate timeline setting used in Dead Man Walking and other World Of Darkness campaigns.

Player Characters

Dead Man Walking typically featured a core 'ensemble cast' comprised of at least five characters, all with different goals and affiliations. It is important to note that, while many World of Darkness games focus on one type of character (a Coven Mages, a Coterie of Vampires, etc.), Dead Man Walking involved dozens of characters from several player sub-groups and several entwining story lines.
