Upcoming Releases
Anarchs Unbound
A revisitation of the old Anarch Cookbook, Anarchs Unbound examines the large scale of the Anarch experi-
ence (domains, the Movement inside other sects’ domains, overthrowing tyrants) on down through the local
and personal scale of the Anarchs (being in an Anarch brood or coterie, “growing up Anarch,” converting from
other sects, and maintaining deep cover or nomadic Anarch ideals).
Rites of Blood
In simplest form, this is a collection of rituals practiced among the various Kindred sects.This isn’t just powers, but
an examination of the sects themselves and how they use their eldritch mystical arts.
What’s in it?
• All thirteen original tribes, tribe variants and
Lost Tribes, with their signature Gifts and
Rites updated from the Werewolf:
The Apocalypse Revised tabletop
rules.

In the Fall of 2012, Onyx Path launched a Kickstarter for the deluxe version of the
Werewolf the Apocalypse 20th Anniversary core rulebook. This full-color, 520+
page special hardcover anniversary edition was designed to look similar to the Vampire
the Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition. The Deluxe W20 full color rulebook was
published with a black leatherette cover, an inset disk on its spine featuring the W20 round
symbol, a red silk ribbon bookmark, and copper-edged pages..
Most importantly, unlike the Deluxe V20 cover embossing, the Deluxe
W20 features claw marks die-cut right through the front cover in the tradition of the first
two WtA editions.

Changing Breeds
This book brings the Changing Breeds right up to date, giving
both players and Storytellers all of the tools needed to inte-
grate shapeshifters other than werewolves into the World of
Darkness. Eleven extant Changing Breeds are described in de-
tail, along with three long-extinct Lost Breeds.
Skinner SAS
The Skinner is a Storytelling Adventure System product for use
with Werewolf 20th Anniversary Edition, and is the
story of the return of Sam Haight- figuratively at least, unless
the players fail to prevent it from becoming something else.
Not only does this book include all that you need to run the
adventure, it also incorporates fan response to the demos run
at Atlanta By Night in 2012 by The Wrecking Crew demo team.
Coming Soon
Rage Across the World
Similar in content to the V20 Companion, this book will pull together lose ends and expand on

Imagine being both dead and deathless at the same time. Imagine
being cradled in the arms of death for years, sometimes decades on
end, but all the while knowing that you will eventually not only arise
again, but awaken to an unfamiliar world that mostly fears and hates
you. Now imagine that your purpose, your entire existence, is bound
within this cycle -- that you are chained to it for all eternity.You sleep,
you wake, your serve your Judge’s will in the lands of the living, and
you return to the death-sleep once more.The ancient culture that
empowered you is gone, lost to the sands of time... yet you endure.
In Mummy: The Curse®, a Storytelling game set in the
World of Darkness, you play one of these beings. Those
who know they exist, from the cultists who serve them to the
dark forces arrayed against them, call them the Deathless.
We call them mummies.

• Represents a step forward in the evolution of the Storytelling System.
• Book includes a player’s section, a Storyteller’s section, and a com-

personal motivations and more.

At the end of 2012, Onyx Path offered fans the chance to back a Mummy: The Curse Kickstarter
for the first new WoD game since 2009.This Kickstarter was designed to offer a limited
edition print version that matched other New World of Darkness core rulebooks
such as Vampire: The Requiem or Changeling: The Lost.This rulebook was

and gold-edged, duo-toned pages.

The greatest men and women of Creation are those divinely blessed he-
roes known as the Exalted. The mightiest among these are known as the
Solar Exalted, the chosen of the Unconquered Sun, Lord of Heaven
and first among the gods.
New for 2013, Exalted 3rd Edition depicts both a revital-
ized and expanded Creation, and the triumphant return
of the Solar Exalted— but whether their rebirth will
herald the salvation or destruction of the world,
none can say. The system redesign takes the best
parts of the previous editions and streamlines the
mechanics for maximum playability.
Exalted Third Edition will include:
• New! Expanded Character Creation – Create and
play Solar Exalted characters and compelling mortal
heroes with more information and fleshed out details.
• New! Merit System – Customize characters more
easily and precisely than ever before with a new system
of Merits.
• New! Magical Equipment – Be more prepared for
battle with a new and more compelling treatment of
magical weapons and armor, including Evocations—
Charms and other miracles that may be gained by
establishing rapport with mystical artifacts.
• New! Combat System – Fight with a new cine-
matic combat engine, primed to deliver dynamic,
exciting, and easily resolved battles between
heroes, gods, and armies.
• New! Charms – Explore a vibrant new
Charm set encompassing both classic
Solar powers from previous editions and
all-new powers to shift the course of
Creation.
...and much, much more!

book will blow the doors off the conception that there are no new Exalted;The Exigents will show the role of the new

• nWoD: Dark Eras– For 2014 we are not presenting a new game line- instead each of the previous nine
game lines is expanded with an evocative and appropriate historical period. Each Dark Era is being created
by a developer and writer who are fully excited by the potential of that Era- for example, Ethan Skemp
takes his award-winning Changeling the Lost to France during the Era of powdered wigs, treachery, and
flashing blades. For the first time we will use Kickstarter to construct this book using direct feedback from
the fans during the process and increase some Eras’ word-count or add entirely new Eras as the communi-
ty pushes for their favorites. Initially 320 pages. PDF/PoD/deluxe limited edition.
• EX3- Different Skies – Different Skies is the first in a series of setting books intended to give players an
infusion of setting information to flesh out their games and drive their storylines.The first part of the book features
our core setting, the River Province. It depicts the River Province at the height of tension caused by the Realm’s
temporary decline, the incursion of the Lunars, the appearance of the Mask of Winters and the return of the Solars
and the Exigents.The second part of the book covers the War in the West. Like the first part of the book, the West
also features a major Deathlord, but the Skullstone Archipelago goes through a fresh reinvention that will grip the
hearts of the readers.This part of the book is essential for gamers who are looking for frontier adventure in a law-
less land; the Western islands have been transformed into a locus for every kind of adventure imaginable, and the
whole region is beset on one side by the Fae and the Realm on the other. 212 pages. PDF/PoD
• Trinity Continuum - A new edition of the fan favorite Trinity Universe, the Trinity Continuum depicts a
world of heroes willing to jump into action, to right wrongs, stand up to tyranny, and make the world a better
place. This rulebook contains the core rules for playing games set in the Continuum, which will be the basis
for further rulebooks such as The Trinity Continuum: Æon. In addition, it contains a modern-day action-ad-
venture setting where teams of daring men and women confront corruption, solve problems, and defeat the
bizarre. Also contains rules for playing Talents, those people who display extraordinary skill or luck.
• The Trinity Continuum: Æon - A new edition of the classic Trinity science fiction game.The year is 2120, a
time of Unity, and the world has changed. Fascist dictatorships rule over cyberpunk dystopias, vying for control with
bio-engineered utopias. Insane, mutated Aberrants have recently returned from deep space to reclaim the Earth,
while psions arise from all corners of the globe to stop them. Ranging from telepaths to teleporters, psychokinet-
ics to psychometrists, the psi orders are a force to reckon with.The Æon Trinity watches over them all.
