>be me
>WoD DM since forever
>when I start with a new group I always make them play as humans before any supernatural creatures in a 'horror' or 'mystery' type of games (Cthulhu style)
>always end up using weird supernatural conspiracy theories

Do you use this kind of scenarios often ?

Examples I've used :
>government uses Changelings to make some precise people sleepwalk to solve problems they can't handle officially
>set during prohibition, mafia teaming up with vampires for them to keep away cops from drinking places (which become drinking places for them too)
>during Franco's reign in Spain, government is taking children from poor (non-Franquist) families to give them to rich (Franquist) families "for them to livebetter lifes" but a part of these agents are taking the children to perform some twisted magic

9\11 Was because a mage lost a will check and he got possessed.
This is what happened to my character.

Thought his magic would reshape the world.
His pride demon also thought that.
Let's just say it did.

Unknown Armies is full of conspiracy theories.
Problem is: You're playing a bunch of lunatics who use their derangements as powers, so if anything turns out to be the truth, no one would believe you anyway. Or worse, the wrong people would.
