Chronicles of Darkness
We live our days completely ignorant of the true terrors lurking around us. Only rarely do our experiences draw back the veil of shadows and reveal the horror in our midst. These glimpses into the supernatural can cause us to retreat into comforting lies — “There are no such things as monsters” — or stir our morbid curiosity. Only a few, however, can overcome their fear and dare to look deeper.
After an extensive overhaul of the concepts of the World of Darkness, the Chronicles of Darkness (sometimes “CofD”) was developed in 2004 with the release of the World of Darkness Rulebook, featuring a game of ordinary people who find themselves embroiled in the supernatural. More than a decade later, it remains a fan favorite supporting an incredible ten supporting lines. Onyx Path Publishing is delighted to offer dozens of role-playing game, fiction, art, and clothing products for the Chronicles of Darkness, as well as helping to rerelease hundreds of original books through PDF and print-on-demand.

Way back in 2010, I wrote some additional material for The Danse Macabre. Owing to a lack of resources at CCP, this detective story campaign frame went unpublished. Somebody mentioned it on the forums recently, and I decided to go digging. This is what I found. Dropped Like a Stone Everybody loved Georgia Stone. You’re not supposed to … Read more

Writer Alec Humphrey kindly provided some updated animal stats for use with Protean and Animalism, as well as for those situations when your vampire just gets jumped by a guard dog. (We’ve all been there, right?) These are adapted from a variety of previous books, with a few entirely new ones added in. Enjoy! Click … Read more
With 71 votes, the Lie won out. So, picking up from where we left off; The universe isn’t only the Supernal, defining concepts, and the Fallen, embodying them. When mages use their Sight, they frequently see signs of corruption, warped or nonsensical symbols infecting the world. If the symbols of the Supernal Realms represent everything … Read more
Okay, so, “the Fallen World” won by a landslide. As most of you have noticed, the Chronicle Books are all named after the story catalyst in their respective games. Not necessarily the antagonist, but the thing that upsets the apple cart, disrupts the lives of the characters and causes a Story. The Strix throw the … Read more

Flowers of Hell, the Player’s Guide is out in PDF. I’m outlining the Storyteller’s Guide. While I’m … Read more
Forsaken Friday’s back, everyone! And it’s a long one, to make up for what I’ve missed.
