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.

A lot of Vampire remains essentially unchanged from the modern nights to the Dark Ages. Most of the clans remain the same. Many of the Disciplines are basically similar. But with V20 Dark Ages, one of our biggest goals is to really give you a lot of value for your readership. We want to add … Read more

One of the most common things we’ve heard as we stepped into V20 Dark Ages was that the Road of Sin didn’t integrate well with games. Many people outright disallowed it in play. So, we wanted to take the Road of Sin, and make it more directly playable. Neall Raemonn Price, our author for the Road … Read more
Last time, I shared with you a note section based on the Tzimisce voice character. Today, I wanted to share with you a first draft of some text from our own Danielle Lauzon. This is her first draft for the Road of Kings. I don’t have a lot to say in support of this. I … Read more
If you’re reading this blog, you’ve probably read at least a few Onyx Path/White Wolf books in the past. You’ve seen the end result of a process. Usually, this process looks something like so: 1) Developer pitches a book. 2) Publisher accepts the pitch. 3) Developer crafts an outline and hires writers. 4) Writers scribble … Read more
Inspired by Justin Achilli’s live outline discussion at Atlanta by Night for the V20 Anarchs Unbound supplement, I thought it might be kind of cool to run something similar at LA by Night. Rich and I decided that the Ghouls book would be a perfect topic for this since there is a lot of information … Read more

First off, I’m new around the development blogs, so I felt I should introduce myself. I’m David A Hill Jr. I’ve been freelancing for White Wolf, CCP, and Onyx Path for a … Read more
Kindred Most Wanted was one of those cool, but a little strange, original Vampire supplements that everyone liked, but didn’t actually get a lot of use at the table. It had these terrifying “bad guys” that made for dangerous villains so bad the entire Camarilla wanted them dead. Admittedly they had pretty good reason because … Read more

And here, the last piece of the book. Alan covered a lot in a small space — even trying to cut as much as I could, it’s still a bit over. Chapter Seven, Part 2 And now, a couple of points going forward. 1) I couldn’t fit nearly as much as I wanted into the … Read more
