Your Lore & Saviour
Hi, I'm Jack Le Breton, otherwise known Lore By Night! You probably know me as a TTRPG YouTuber who focuses primarily on Horror TTRPG content, specifically my discussions and dissection of the lore and metaplot of the World of Darkness games, particularly Vampire: The Masquerade and Wraith: The Oblivion. I also provide easy-to-understand character creation guides, and honest reviews that are just as eloquent as they are blunt.I'm unafraid to call out the injustice in people and companies who treat people poorly. I encourage accessibility, diversity & patience in everything I do. I provide a safe space for my diverse community across all my social platforms and gaming tables.I have (as of writing) 4yrs experience in the actual play genre. I have worked with various game developers, fortunate enough to run their games with and for their writers. This includes, but not limited to, Onyx Path Publishing and World of Darkness. I have also partaken in charity events for Jasper's Game Day and ran my own charity event on my YouTube channel.I am also the author of The Autarkis Storyteller, the 2nd best-selling homebrew on the Storyteller's Vault in 2023.If you would like to collaborate on something, don't hesitate to drop me a message on social media or with the email button below, and I can't wait to see what we can do with each other!
"Lore by Night is, hands down, the most detailed source you'll find for World of Darkness lore in the podcast world."

As well as my TTRPG work, I am also a composer and producer. If you heard any music on my YouTube channel, chances are it is something I wrote, performed and produced!I am a classical trained pianist with experiences with jazz, soul, rock, pop and...well, a bit of everything else! I have been been writing and producing music for over a decade, bringing industry standard quality to everything I do. I have an accelerated degree in Music Industry Studies, specialising in Audio Production. I have produced 4 soundtracks for my YouTube channel and two videogame soundtracks, most notably the BAFTA-nominated Two Point Hospital (Two Point Studios/SEGA).You can listen to my works below and read my testimonials:

_____________________________"I got to work with Jack after a mutual friend who was composing music for Hartacon Tactics asked him to contribute with a few tracks. When I listened to his pieces I saw them playing with the images of my game in my mind: they were a perfect match, they had the energy, the intensity and the style I was looking for. I asked Jack to compose more and ended up using only his music. Every track he has made has a clear identity and it was ideal for me as I wanted each scenario to give the players a different experience and make them feel immersed in the action and the environment. Jack's music really added value to the game. Jack worked professionally and with a lot of patience to accommodate my requests, and I can be fussy!"Daniele Messina AKA Charlie Fleed, creator of Hartacon Tactics
