So, what’s happening with Vampire right now? • The V20 Companion is in its final compilation stages. Now that the Kickstarter funding has concluded, we’re collecting the relevant pieces of information that we offered as rewards for the tiers and integrating that into the texts. For example, I’ve written some players into a few examples of … Read more
Here’s a little present for folks to enjoy over the weekend: Steve’s sketches for the three Lost Tribes being presented in W20. These are always a great topic for discussion, and I know the writing team traded a fair number of thoughts about these Tribes, so feel free to let us know what you think. … Read more
Look at me mangling the English language on these post titles. Here are the last of the regular Tribe sketches from our good friend, the talented Mr. Steve Prescott. The updates to these will now come more slowly as he takes the notes given and creates the finishes. The rumor is that he’s finished the … Read more

One of the interesting things about this process has been expanding beyond the “core.” I’ve worked on two Werewolf core books myself simply from the cWoD alone, and done at least one translation project (the original Werewolf: The Dark Ages). W20 is an entirely different beast, play on words unintended but unavoidable. So I’m used … Read more
