World of Darkness - publisher of a variety of notable tabletop roleplaying games, video games, board games, li🥀terature, comic books, and more (including Vampire: The Masquerade and Werewolf: The Apocalypse) - has announced the hiring of two new members who will ꦕhelp the World Of Darkness brand expand throughout 2020 and beyonꦐd.
Joining the Wor♉ld of Darkness team as Brand Creative Lead is 📖Justin Achilli, who rejoins the team having previously authored and designed “World of Darkness games, rulebooks, and supplemental material over the last 23 years.”
Some of Achilli’s previous works have included Vampire: The Masquerade, Dark Ages: Vampire, and Werewolf: The Apocalypse. Having held roles at Funcom and Red Storm Entertainme♊nt, Achilli𓄧 will bring his product development expertise to the World of Darkness team while working with licensed partners.
“I've loved the World of Darkness since my then-girlfriend convinced me to get into it back in the 1990s. It led me into a career in games, and at every studio where I've worked I've met people who have themselves been long-t🐲ime players,” stated Justin Achilli in a press release. “I'm very excited to help deliver the future of WoD, as Paradox has the ability to realize games and other media that we simp🤡ly didn't have the means to accomplish in years prior. More than anything else, I'm looking forward to bringing this dark, mysterious world I love to an entirely new generation, and saying hello again to fellow Methuselahs who have been with us since ancient times.”
In addition, World of Darkness also welcomes Martyna “Outstar” Zych to thꦓe team as Brand Communit♌y Developer. Already a noted YouTube and Twitch Streamer, as well as an avid Vampire: The Masquerade enthusiast, Zych also liv﷽estreams the weekly “WoD News.”
“My love for the World of Darkness started with my brother gifting me Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines when I was fourteen,” said Martyna Zych in the release. “It wasn’t exactly meant for my age, but it was an educational experience that led to me eventually entering the games industry. Through the cryptic note on the protagonist’s inbox I found the game’s concept artist, whose work inspired me to start creating digital art, pursue my Master’s degree, and land my first industry job at CD Projekt RED. The World of Darkness fan community is one of the most creative, passionate, and inclusive table🌠top and video game groups I’ve ever known. I will always be one of the fans, but the opportunity to work behind the scenes on this amazing brand is a dream come true.”
World of Darkness fans have a lot to be excited about this year. The addition of Justin Achilli and Martyna Zych should only reinforce that excitement for making World of Darkness the best th🍒at it can be.
