Chronicles of Darkness
We live our days completely ignorant of the true terrors lurking around us. Only rarely do our experiences draw back the veil of shadows and reveal the horror in our midst. These glimpses into the supernatural can cause us to retreat into comforting lies — “There are no such things as monsters” — or stir our morbid curiosity. Only a few, however, can overcome their fear and dare to look deeper.
After an extensive overhaul of the concepts of the World of Darkness, the Chronicles of Darkness (sometimes “CofD”) was developed in 2004 with the release of the World of Darkness Rulebook, featuring a game of ordinary people who find themselves embroiled in the supernatural. More than a decade later, it remains a fan favorite supporting an incredible ten supporting lines. Onyx Path Publishing is delighted to offer dozens of role-playing game, fiction, art, and clothing products for the Chronicles of Darkness, as well as helping to rerelease hundreds of original books through PDF and print-on-demand.

We all need mirrors. The Awakened are strange, maddening people to be around. Imagine the most insular subculture you’ve ever come across, where the members have their own bizarre rituals, jargon, and shared references, then multiply it by a thousand. Then curse almost everyone else to be driven mad by exposure to that subculture even … Read more
The third in my series of rapid-fire teasing Seemings, The Fairest. By now, I hope you can see the general feel and format. We’ve already shared Darklings and Beasts; I have the others lined up, they’ll probably go out this coming week. Here’s the draft. The normal rules for my draft sharing apply. Here’s the … Read more
Keeping this update, this teaser, short and simple. Earlier this week, I showed you what a Beast looks like. Now, I want to show you what a Darkling feels like. Here’s the first draft. Same rules as always apply. Here’s the forum thread to talk about it.
(I apologize, I know it’s a terrible movie, but he actually uses the word “atavism” in a monologue.) OK! So! I know I’ve been a little lax in Beast updates this week, and the reason for that is that another project I’m working on – not for Onyx Path, but for my own company, Growling Door … Read more
