The world of Curseborne is full of intrigue, magic, and things that go bump in the night. It’s just like our world, except the reason that things don’t go your way or that bad things happen is that the people are literally living in a world of curses. Some people — the Accursed — are cursed more than others. They have a particularly large curse that hangs over their heads and makes them more prone to bad things happening to them and around them. The nature of this curse also makes them magical in nature. They have a sense of the thing holding them back, and they can manipulate it in ways that normal people cannot.
Curseborne is the upcoming new urban-horror TTRPG from Onyx Path Publishing. Coming from a veteran team of writers and developers, including some from the original White Wolf Publishing, this fresh take on the urban horror genre is coming to you sooner than you think.

In our first look at Sorcerers, we learned what makes a Sorcerer, and what kind of power they have. We took a look at the irreverent Unburdened through the lens of our narrator, Kai. Kai told you all about sacrifice, and how magic is part of a larger web of curses that take and take … Read more
Sorcerers are the result of someone answering the question, “What would you give up to have all the power in the world?” with “anything” and finding out that this was the wrong answer. Every Sorcerer is cursed to not just be able to cast magic, but to need to cast magic in a way that … Read more
In last week’s blog entry on the Outcasts of Curseborne, we covered the most militant and ferocious of the families: The Battleground Angels. This week we’ll cover a third family, one that many people think of when they consider demons and tempters of popular culture and ancient myth. They are mistaken as the hedonists, the … Read more
Shivers, Frights, Terrors, Nightmares… and Red Riding Hood What’s life without a little challenge? Relaxing, that’s what. Relaxation is, sadly, not something the Accursed often get to enjoy. Challenges rear their heads in all manner of ways – curses, tricks, interstitial prisons, adversaries wanting to chew their faces off… It’s not always easy bearing a … Read more

In our previous blog entry on the Outcasts of Curseborne, we explored what the Outcasts are and one of the most secretive families: the Nephilim. Now, we go to the other extreme, a family devoted to openly combatting the archons wherever they can be found. These soldiers train all their lives to fight against the … Read more
The Outcasts are the descendants of a spirit (known as an “archon”) cast out from another world. It doesn’t matter if they were an angel, a demon, a minor god, or a horror from beyond — something did something wrong and was banished to our world as a result. And the Outcasts are the inheritors … Read more
In our most recent Primals-focused Curseborne, we took on the Hyde family with their goals of mutation and forced evolution. From there we travel to damp family manors, abandoned docklands, and twilight-soaked shores to find our next family. Buried amid the mold and sunken in squalid mires, concealed by deep, shadowed corners, you will find… … Read more
