Today’s the nine-year anniversary of Werewolf: The Forsaken. Nine years of trying to be a tenth of what Urfarah was. Nine years of hunting spirits, humans, and weirder things besides. Nine years of learning how to hunt — from games about werewolves, but also hunters and vampires and demons and everything else. Time to take … Read more
Folks on the Demon thread over at RPG.Net are discussing the Demon House Exploit. Since it’s Halloween, I figured I’d post the text of that Exploit, so you can see how you can be a haunted house in Demon: The Descent. Demon House The God-Machine occasionally gives angels non-human, even inanimate, Covers. They might become weapons, objects or … Read more

Will was facing off against the demon-wolf, Marchosias, with Edgar and Luke nearby. Simon had sucker-punched Jamie, and Amy had caught her as she plummeted earthward. And Saskia was stuck in her own … Read more
Hi, everyone! After a (long) hiatus, allow me to cordially welcome you back to the blog. Back when I kicked this thing off, the initial intent was just to run it full-throttle through the Mummy Deluxe Edition Kickstarter, but it appears some people have been missing my updates and teasers (dawww), so I’m back to … Read more
The Deluxe W20 Changing Breeds Kickstarter is going strong. It’s got three days to go, and so far people have blitzed through our stretch goals. So, for those of you on the fence, I thought I’d run through what the current state of the book looks like: • A 10,000 word section on the Hengeyokai … Read more

Some angels walked battlefields with bladed wings dipped in blood, others protected humans without rest… until the moment of their appointed doom.

So reading through the excellent comments on the Deluxe W20 Changing Breeds Kickstarter and it looks like some folks aren’t aware that we’ve made the full text of W20 Changing Breeds up on Google Docs.
