Changeling the Lost Second Edition: Ogres
Hey all, I’m getting through with red lining Changeling. I want to make sure I get the Seemings all out there before I’m finished, since I’ve gotten great notes. This time, I’m going to show you our Ogres. I’m just going to put them in-line in the post here. Normal rules apply, be excellent to…

[Beast]Revisions
Heya, Matt here. So, first of all, I want to thank all (as of this writing) 1149 folks who have backed Beast. Your support means everything to the project, not just in the form of your hard-earned cash, but also in the form of the comments and discussion here. It’s been a real pleasure…

Changeling the Lost Second Edition: Court Creation and Toronto
I’m going to keep my talk on this short, because there’s a ton of great content to speak for itself. In Second Edition Changeling: The Lost, the default assumption is that when you make your characters and plan your chronicle, you build your Court. You can use one of our robust examples as well, since…

[Codename: Sardonyx] Teaser the Second
Greetings, true believers! Last week, we showed you how one builds a dice pool in Sardonyx and how one generates and stores Momentum. This week’s update is courtesy of Lauren Roy and Danielle Harper: Attributes and Skills, the nuts and bolts of those dice pools. Again, go easy on us – it’s feature complete, but still…

Reaching the Next Level [Mage: The Awakening]
Attainments! Early in the discussions around a new edition of Awakening‘s ruleset, the team expressed a desire to tidy up some of the exceptions and secondary effects built into the system – things like Sympathetic casting, Aimed Spells, Spell Triggers, Counterspell, Summoning. Anything that was magical, but didn’t strictly speaking follow the magic rules. Some…

Changeling the Lost: Second Edition, The Fae-Touched
So far, some of my favorite stuff about the Second Edition lines has been the appendices for mortal “minor templates”. The ghouls from Vampire 2e, the wolf-blooded from Werewolf 2e, and the Sleepwalkers from 2e add a bunch of fun options to chronicles. I wanted Changeling 2e to be similar in that regard. So, we’re…

Going Back in Time [Mage: The Awakening] [Dark Eras]
Welcome, faithful readers! Bit of a departure from the usual format for Second Edition blogs this week, as we’re firmly into “second drafts are arriving back” phase, and there isn’t really anything to show you that you haven’t already seen in first-draft form, not yet. What we do have, though, is a third draft, for…

Hurt Locker: Storytelling, and Red Lines/Development
Howdy. I wanted to share another bit of World of Darkness: Hurt Locker with you. I’ve also seen a lot of questions about development, and about “red lines”, our development editing notes. So, I figure I’ll knock that out, and kill two birds with one stone. The Draft This draft is the Storytelling section of…

Supporting Cast [Mage: The Awakening]
We all need mirrors. The Awakened are strange, maddening people to be around. Imagine the most insular subculture you’ve ever come across, where the members have their own bizarre rituals, jargon, and shared references, then multiply it by a thousand. Then curse almost everyone else to be driven mad by exposure to that subculture even…

Changeling the Lost Second Edition: Fairest
The third in my series of rapid-fire teasing Seemings, The Fairest. By now, I hope you can see the general feel and format. We’ve already shared Darklings and Beasts; I have the others lined up, they’ll probably go out this coming week. Here’s the draft. The normal rules for my draft sharing apply. Here’s the…
