Chronicles of Darkness: Dark Eras 2

Created by Richard Thomas

Chronicles of Darkness: Dark Eras 2 starts out presenting a chapter for each of six historical eras; each of which features two Chronicles of Darkness game lines which include Vampire: The Requiem, Mage: The Awakening, Hunter: The Vigil, Changeling: The Lost, and more! The rules in this book are compatible with second edition Chronicles of Darkness. Each terrifying time period and location is examined through the supernatural creatures that dwell there.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

December Dark Eras 2 Update!
over 3 years ago – Tue, Dec 22, 2020 at 09:20:18 PM

Hello DE2 Backers!

RichT here:


Everyone here at Onyx Path hopes you are doing well and are safe.


Right now, we've been told that there are 75 remaining reward packages slated to go out this month for the non-US rest of the world, and that should do it. As I noted previously, the fulfillment shippers have been hit by repercussions of the Covid pandemic, and are short-staffed and trying very hard to get all packages out these next few weeks, so here's hoping that these all get out this year.


Once I know for sure, I'll pass the word on to you in a final Update for this project! Thanks as always for your  patience as we navigate these still-churning waters into 2021.


LESS THAN 24 HOURS LEFT FOR OUR CURRENT KICKSTARTER!

A new mega-adventure for the Scarred Lands setting, Dead Man’s Rust contains:

  • A complete campaign taking characters from level 1 to 10

  • New playable options including races, subraces, and subclasses
  • New monsters, magic items, and more!

November Dark Eras 2 Update!
over 3 years ago – Mon, Nov 30, 2020 at 05:47:27 PM

Hello DE2 Backers!

RichT here:

Everyone here at Onyx Path hopes you are doing well and are safe.


Right now, pretty much all of the US and essentially North/Central/South American reward packages have shipped, and we're told that for the rest of the world, your reward packages are shipping in waves. They have been hit by repercussions of the Covid pandemic, and are short-staffed and trying very hard to get all packages out these next few weeks, as we understand the situation. 


I'll continue to issue these Updates until they let me know they've sent everything they have out to you folks! Thanks as always for your patience as we navigate these still-churning waters.

October Dark Eras 2 Update
over 3 years ago – Fri, Oct 30, 2020 at 02:57:14 AM

Hello DE2 Backers!

RichT here:

Everyone here at Onyx Path hopes you are doing well and are safe.


The fulfillment shipper confirmed with me that they have all the info needed to ship and packages are headed out- I'd expect some of you will start getting tracking notices next week (or even this week, but generally the notices lag behind the actual packages leaving the warehouse).

Thanks for all of your patience during the long creation process and unexpectedly long manufacturing, etc, process. We literally could not have made this book without your support and participation - so thank you again!


OUR CURRENT KICKSTARTER!

Less than 3 days to go for our current Kickstarter for the Deluxe World of Darkness: Ghost Hunters!

September Dark Eras 2 Update!
over 3 years ago – Wed, Sep 30, 2020 at 06:18:06 PM

Hello DE2 Backers!

RichT here:


Everyone here at Onyx Path hopes you are doing well and are safe during these unusual times.


We had a delay as the one printer we use still had some slowdown issues due to Covid-19, but they are shipping the last of the items needed to start shipping out your rewards. So October should be the month! We're looking forward  to hearing from our fulfiller that these are shipping out!


OUR CURRENT AND NEXT KICKSTARTER!

Less than 2 days to go for our current Kickstarter for Scion: Demigod 2e

Join us here to find out more and pledge!


And then coming up on Tuesday, October 6th at 2pm Eastern US time, WoD: Ghost Hunters hearkens back to those WoD books that weren’t tied to any one game line, but to the World of Darkness as a whole. In this case, the 20th Anniversary WoD actually,  although some of the paranormal investigation material will no doubt be usable for any horror or urban dark fantasy game.

And just like with the Scion: Demigod Kickstarter, backers will be able to read through all of the finished text by the time the WoD: Ghost Hunters KS is over on October 31st: Halloween!

What better day is there for ghost hunters?

August DE2 Update!
over 3 years ago – Tue, Sep 01, 2020 at 07:02:55 PM

Hello DE2 Backers!

RichT here:

Everyone here at Onyx Path hopes you are doing well and are safe during the ongoing trials and tribulations.

We're getting to the point where the fulfillment is in the hands of our fulfillment company, and because of that I have these photos of the finished printed books to show you!

So that's a couple shots of the cover - I was trying to show the embossed title and metallic cover paper, and I think you can see the shiny there. And then a chapter opener with the full page art and fiction, and then the start of the chapter text. We're looking forward to hearing from our fulfiller that these are shipping out!

OUR NEXT KICKSTARTER!

As a Hero, a Scion becomes a figure of myth and story, an exemplar of some virtue of their chosen society or the culture they’re born into. Even before their Visitation, the children of the Gods are a breed apart. But some want more than this lesser form of immortality, forever in the shadow of their parents. The golden ichor within the Scion’s heart sears and cooks them, ever burning away any human frailties of the Scion and driving them toward more audacious Deeds. They seek to become truly transformational figures, leaving The World forever different in their wake. At the fifth dot of Legend, it all reaches a tipping point, where the Scion is formed more of divine ichor than mortal flesh —more immortal than mortal, a true Demigod. They have declared to The World that they will not be pawns of Fate, but players in their own right. They will succeed in becoming a God, or they will die with their failure.

Everything up to this point was your prologue. Now it’s time to live your myth.

Scion: Demigod continues the path set down by Scion: Origin and Scion: Hero, expanding Scion Second Edition’s power level and charting the next level of power tiers for the Scions of the Gods. Players will take their characters through a tightly designed yet flexible story arc that ends in apotheosis or death – either way, the character will no longer be mortal after this book. Your characters don’t have to follow every Milestone with their Deeds — but they cannot run from their destiny once they’ve chosen to embrace it.

Going Live on September 3rd at 2PM Eastern US Time!
