Now Available: Beast: The Primordial

Beast CoverNow available in PDF and print from DriveThruRPG: Beast: The Primordial!

Did your heart seize up in your chest a little when I said that? It should. Those horrors you’ve dreamed of all your life – the arms dragging you down into the ooze, the thing with fangs and too many legs waiting in the dark, the sleek, silent killer dropping on you from a clear sky – they’re real. 
But don’t fret, little brother. You’ll never have to wake up in fear, ever again. The nightmares are real…and you’re one of them. 
Now, let us feast.”
-Zmei
You are one of the Begotten, the living embodiment of a primal nightmare of humanity. Your soul, your Horror, is a monstrous creature – maybe something that humanity dreamed and wrote down and still speaks of in legends, or maybe some outlandish horror that no living person has ever seen.
You are a Beast, and you must feed. Your Hunger drives you, and your Hunger might damn you. Indulge too lightly and your Horror will take matters into its own hands, roaming the Primordial Dream for sustenance and awakening murderous hatred in spiritually weak individuals. Feed too deeply and too often, and you become sluggish, sacrificing the raw edge of Hunger for the languor of Satiety. You must decide how to grow your Legend – will you be the monster incarnate, the thing that all other monsters fear? Or are you doomed to die under a Hero’s sword?
This book contains:
  • The complete guide to playing a Beast in Chronicles of Darkness
  • A game system designed for crossover with the other Chronicles of Darkness lines
  • A look at the Beasts and their broods all around the world, from Vancouver to Tokyo
  • Rules for Heroes, the deluded individuals who think that this is their story

    Excellent. I was hoping this would be out well in advance of my next chronicle. Now I have time to really digest it before I need ancient monsters of legend.

    Shouldn’t it be Chronicles of Darkness and Horror (not soul) in that description?

    Is this a WoD title or a CoD title?

    Shouldn’t all of those bullet points say Chronicles of Darkness? Super excited. I haven’t read up on Beast since I heard about the alterations.

    Really awesome to finally get to dive into beast.

    One request, could we get the clans banner replaced with a beast one? I like cleavage as much as the next guy but it always gives me a minor stroke when I visit the site during work and someone decides to walk past my cube at the exact moment. lol

      Agreed!

  7. […] Onyx Path Publishing are once again allowing us back into the New World of Darkness as they tap into humanity’s inner monster with the return of Beast: The Primordial onto DriveThruRPG. […]

    Read it excellent, now here is a question:

    Will there be a sourcebook on Heroes?

    They are lightly touched upon in the main beast book, love to see more powers to them. and how different they are from hunters.
