Now available in PDF and print from DriveThruRPG: Scion 2nd Edition – Book One: Origin!
You are the child of a God, born to the magic of yesterday and the promise of tomorrow. You live in a World of myth, where every ancient story is true. Your ancient enemies, the Titans, stir in their prison beneath the lands of the dead. Their spawn issues forth from lands of myth, and the specter of war falls across the heavens. In this age of turmoil, you seize your birthrights and feel the call of your blood.
Find your destiny. Live the myth. Embrace your Fate.
Scion is a game about Gods and humanity, and everything in between. It’s a game about mythic Deeds and the reasons people talk about those mythic Deeds. Scion: Origin details the Scions when they’re still (mostly) human, before the Visitation that introduces them to the divine World — they’re exceptional humans, perhaps, blessed with luck and skill or cursed with ill fortune and strange trials in their lives, but humans nonetheless.
This book includes:
- The core rules and character-creation information for Scion 2nd Edition, powered by the Storypath system.
- An in-depth look at the basic setting of Scion (called the World).
- A list of the major players — the Gods, Titans, and Legendary creatures that comprise the setting.
- Storyguide advice on running games for pre-Visitation Scions.
Also available in PDF and print: Scion 2nd Edition – Book Two: Hero!
The savage Titans have escaped their eternal prisons to wage war against the Gods once more. Their battles in the lands of myth have spilled over into our World. But even the Gods cannot stop their personal rivalries and squabbles long enough to care for the peoples who worship them.
Find your destiny and seize your birthright. Scion: Hero details the children of the Gods when they have been touched by the divine, awakening to the miraculous power their parents wield.
But this great power comes with grave responsibility. The Scions must negotiate both the human World and the divine one, acting as intermediaries and shielding the worshippers of their parents from harm. Can they struggle to fulfill their Fate and still remain tied to what they care for most?
This book includes:
- Knacks and Boons, the incredible miracles wielded by Scions, powered by the Storypath system.
- Character-creation systems for Heroes, the first step of a Scion’s evolution towards divinity.
- Ten pantheons: the Algonquian, Aztec, Chinese, Egyptian, Japanese, Greek and Roman, Hindu, Irish, Norse, and Yoruban Gods, all suitable for parentage of your Scion.
- Advanced information on the World, the setting of Scion, complete with fearsome enemies to oppose your Scion.
Note this is not a stand-alone rulebook. Scion: Origin has the necessary core rules for the game.
