Promethean: The Created
Promethean: The Created is a game about stolen lives. Prometheans are soulless corpses animated by a mysterious, alchemical force — the Divine Fire — stolen from the gods. They wander the dark places of the world, seeking what their creators denied them: humanity. They are pilgrims. The Created. They wander the world, sometimes alone, sometimes in the blessed company of their own kind, driven by memories of events and facts they never knew, all in the service of one Great Work… to be human.
Promethean: The Created was first published in 2006, introducing a supernatural heretofore unseen by fans of the Chronicles of Darkness. Promethean has now been freshly reanimated from the remains of the old as a second edition including the Firestorm Chronicle, which tells new tales and builds on lessons learned in the past decade, including new Transmutations, a clearer guide to the Pilgrimage, and a new antagonist in the form of greedy alchemists.

So, Transmutations. The “kewl powerz” of the Promethean set. Let’s talk about them. In Promethean‘s first edition, Transmutations worked more or less like the powers in other White Wolf games; they had a linear progression (though you could buy them out of sequence for an additional experience cost), and they covered a lot of the bases: … Read more

One of my favorite bits of Promethean is the Ramble. In case you don’t know, the Ramble is simply the tale of a Promethean’s Pilgrimage, a story summing up their experiences on the road to the New Dawn. I’ve been taken with the idea of Prometheans exchanging letters, constantly relating their Rambles to a disparate throng … Read more
I couldn’t find a shot of Mark when he gets the idea to “save the Empire” at the end of the movie, but this one is pretty good for my purposes. If you’ve never seen Empire Records, don’t worry about it. OK, so, it’s been a good long freaking while since we’ve done a Promethean preview, and … Read more
