Curseborne is a game about being unapologetic monsters in a world where being monstrous is the least of your worries. In Curseborne, you play as Accursed, descendants of monstrous lineages lurking in a modern world that closely resembles our own. You rebel against the ancient feuds between these entwined families, as well as against the web of curses that bind you, while fending off inhuman antagonists seeking to claim — or reclaim — your power.
This book is comprised of two main parts. The first part is the setting of Curseborne, as well as more about the Accursed themselves through the view of the characters. It shows how they see themselves, their world, and their place in that world. Lineages represent five broad categories of Accursed: The Dead, The Hungry, The Outcasts, The Primal, and The Sorcerers.
The second part of the book are the instructions on how to use this book to play a game. You’ll find the chapters on how to play the game using the Storypath Ultra system, how to create a character, all the cool powers those characters have, and information on how to run a game of Curseborne.
The primary purpose behind this crowdfunding campaign is to enable Onyx Path to create a fully-developed PDF and hardcover version of the Curseborne tabletop roleplaying game. With your support we can create a full-color hardcover book, which will be sent out as a reward to backers and also made available to game and hobby stores through Onyx Path’s distribution partners.
