Hi, gang, I must say, it was encouraging and refreshing to see so many requests for a teaser about the themes of Mummy: The Curse. Since theme is so fundamental to Storytelling games (and to storytelling in general), it’s certainly a great place to start. Like other World of Darkness games, the world of Mummy … Read more
One last tribal spread; they seem to be okay format-wise, but what the heck. The Uktena always struck me as one of the “least picked” tribes, but I think they’re beyond fascinating. It seems appropriate to show you them, especially as we have a revised Prescott sketch to go with it. He added some more … Read more
Here we see the Nabataean, one of the Children of the Revolution penned by Mummy developer C.A. Suleiman. Thematically, I love this guy. He exudes a mythic feel that’s perfect for an elder vampire, and he does it without being an uber-character who can blow something into splinters by looking at it. He’s also tied … Read more
Hi, gang, I’d like to get the blog ball rolling by giving you an opportunity to weigh in on the things you’d like to see covered here in the weeks leading up to the game’s release. I can’t promise I’ll be able to divulge the skinny on certain details, of course, but I can promise … Read more
Below, you’ll find Azrael, a black metal musician whose concept came directly from the comments section of previous blog posts (thanks, Paul Smith!). Eddy took the core concept and cleaned it up a bit for publication, then I went through and made a few adjustments to take into account the greater directions of the book. … Read more
Hi, gang, So, not only is this my first WWblogs post, but it’s my first WordPress… well, anything of any kind, so I hope you’ll indulge me while I figure this interface out. In the meantime, it’s great to be here. For those who don’t know me, my name’s C.A. Suleiman and I’m developing a … Read more
So, here’s an example of how we’re looking at changing format. Take a look at the following tribal spread, one featuring a tribe near and dear to my bloodthirsty heart. There’s a slimmed-down Character Creation section that incorporates Background Restrictions, Appearance has been trimmed of talk of human ethnicities, and we folded Kinfolk and Territory … Read more
Back to the wordage side of things. Let’s kick things off with a preview of what the tribal spread text might look like. The advantage is that you can picture Steve Prescott’s awesome art alongside this! Also, tribal glyph and such. I should note that this is probably a little too much word count. My … Read more
So, what’s happening with Vampire right now? • The V20 Companion is in its final compilation stages. Now that the Kickstarter funding has concluded, we’re collecting the relevant pieces of information that we offered as rewards for the tiers and integrating that into the texts. For example, I’ve written some players into a few examples of … Read more
Here’s a little present for folks to enjoy over the weekend: Steve’s sketches for the three Lost Tribes being presented in W20. These are always a great topic for discussion, and I know the writing team traded a fair number of thoughts about these Tribes, so feel free to let us know what you think. … Read more
