Vampire: The Masquerade
The world of Vampire: The Masquerade is a dark reflection of our own. The shadows loom longer here, and the night is more reluctant to yield to day. Corruption runs rampant, from the government through private corporations and into the various subcultures that revel in these culturally bankrupt times. Vampires are an outgrowth of the people who populate this desperate environment. They exist in the World of Darkness because they are the monsters among us, the products of a world so dark that only something truly horrible and captivating can challenge the depths into which the living residents of the world have plunged it.
Vampire: The Masquerade exploded into hobby games in 1991 and inspired a generation of fans the likes of which the game industry had never seen before or since. The cultural significance Vampire left on not just the gaming world but on modern vampire-related pop culture can be seen and felt at virtually every turn and in every medium today. Onyx Path Publishing offers a number of role-playing game fiction, art, and clothing products for Vampire: The Masquerade, as well as helping to re-release over a hundred original books through PDF and print-on-demand. We published throughout Vampire‘s 20th Anniversary Edition, and are excited have worked with Paradox on Vampire 5th Edition. Vampire 5th Edition is currently under the stewardship of Renegade Game Studio.

Moving right along on Lore of the Clans, we present the Ventrue, written by Alan Alexander. Here’s the link to the Google Doc: Edit: Link removed now that open development is closed. Thank you!

Happy Tuesday! I just got finished handing off essential documents for V20 Dark Ages over to Mike for layout and art direction. Boy are my arms tired. But my next development project right now is V20 Black Hand. Not settled on the name yet. I’m thinking, “Dark Conspiracy: V20 Guide to the Tal’Mahe’Ra”. We’ll see. … Read more

Today is Clan Giovanni, written by Christopher Wilde. Here’s the link to the Google Doc: Edit: Link removed now that open development is closed. … Read more
Been down periscope a bit. I’m getting art notes in, changing the orders of things, and filling out some word count I didn’t know we’d have. In the mean time, I wanted to show off our version of Daimonion, the signature Baali Discipline. Our own Neall Raemonn Price did levels 1-5, and the Hell Born … Read more

Hi everyone! Happy Thursday. I’ve been down periscope a bit. I’m doing some last-minute tweaks to the text before I send it over to layout. This is something I wanted to share to you a bit, partly because I did it myself and it’s good to get feedback, and partly because it shows off a … Read more
First, a quick note: I’ll be closing comments on the Lasombra page as soon as I post this. As I mentioned previously, I’m going to try to keep to about a week’s time of open development so that I can keep things moving. Following the vigorous discussion of Clan Assamite for Lore of the Clans, … Read more
