April 2026 Update
2 months ago
– Wed, Apr 22, 2026 at 10:03:18 AM
Hello Titans,
We're still in a print/production holding pattern, circling overhead as the Onyx Path team figures out how to fill in their print schedule slots. They've successfully completed production and fulfillment with their new printing and distribution partners, so there's a template to apply as they go forward, and a few projects have already joined the queue, but not this one just yet.
So, I'll continue to monitor and ask about our pending Stretch Goal milestone markers and share info with you once a month. It's not very exciting, but I want you to know that I'm at least paying attention and checking in with the Onyx Path crew and reading Rich's Monday Meeting Notes so nothing will be forgotten or sneak by.
So let's get to it! Pretty much same as last month:
Pending Projects
Two books waiting for a slot on the print schedule, a trio of Stretch Goals still to come.

March 2026 Monthly Update
3 months ago
– Tue, Mar 24, 2026 at 08:53:12 AM
Hello Titans,
Right off the top, I'll say that there's no big news this month.
Onyx Path has completed their first print job with their new print partner and started shipping that book out to backers. Now that they've gone from A to Z in the process, they're starting to sort out their manufacturing backlog and building a schedule to work through the projects that need to get printed and shipped out to backers. They're not rushing, trying to do it all right and not make hasty mistakes, so we'll probably have to continue to be patient for a while.
I'll continue to check their updates and info and share any new information in our regular monthly update.
In other Scion news...
Scion: Pandora's Box
Now available from DriveThruRPG in Advance PDF: Pandora’s Box for Scion 2nd Edition!
From petty minions to mighty champions. From trivial twists of luck and chance to soaring abilities and world-shaking powers. Pandora’s Box of Knacks, Boons, and Birthrights contains every power provided across the many books released for Scion Second Edition, assembled with a comprehensive contents page so you can easily locate the power you need in an instant. No longer will you need to stop your heroic tale of Gods and Titans to find the right ability in the right book: they’re all here, in Pandora’s Box.
Note: This is the Advance PDF. Onyx Path has collected errata and will be preparing a final PDF and Print-on-Demand versions of the book. Customers who purchase the Advance PDF will automatically get the updated final PDF added to their library at DriveThruRPG. They will also get a discount link for the PoD version of the book. Be sure to have your Notification settings at DriveThruRPG set to accept emails from Onyx Path Publishing. That is the only way the print discount links will be sent.

February 2026 Update

– Tue, Feb 24, 2026 at 07:19:25 AM
Hello Titans,
Here's our regular update for February.
TLDR: Gifts of the Titans has been finalized and is available for download on DTRPG; hardcover books are still in the print queue to be scheduled.
Gifts of the Titans has been finalized.
Last month's big reward, the Gifts of the Titans book, has been finalized, incorporating all of your feedback. You can download the latest version at your convenience from your DTRPG digital library and get rid of all those pesky "page XX" notations.
Pending Rewards
Our hardcover book rewards are still in Onyx Path's catch-up print queue. Their first book with their new printing partner has gone well, so now the Onyx Path crew knows the ins and outs of that process. Of course, there seems to be a new layer of grumpy tariffs to navigate, so it remains to be seen when these will be added to the print schedule, but the team is working on sorting that all out.

JUST LAUNCHED!
The World Below: Buried Treasures
The World Below is a game of adversity, heroism, terror, and awe. Your characters will overcome or be defeated by terrible beasts, environmental calamities, and Kaos storms ravaging their surroundings and the souls they encounter. They will chart their journeys, chronicle their tales, and pass their stories down to their descendants, who will, in turn, become your characters when your old ones perish or retire.
Now, two new books will let you delve deeper into The World Below and illuminate some of the darkness!
The Delver’s Guide is a Player's Manual for The World Below.
Delvers may be brave, but that doesn’t mean they don’t require help once in a while. That’s what this guide is: help for all delvers, explorers, and survivors in the World Below. New Callings and weapons, new Dialectics and powers, a new scenario and fresh rules for crafting and harvesting, and much, much more await within, so every delver can feel properly equipped for the adventures ahead.
Secrets of Kalm and Kaos is a Storyguide’s Handbook for The World Below.
There are hundreds of tales to tell of the World Below. From stories of adventurers braving Kaos storms to intrepid explorers who throw themselves into the dreamlike Obscura or harrowing Abyss. From chronicles of settlements rising and falling to those of bold delvers who go so far as to tame the beasts of their realm and call them pets. New playable options, new powers, new rules for Kalm, machinery, monstrous mounts, and more besides await within.
Join in and help us explore the dark depths of the Vast Underground

REWARD DISTRIBUTION
If this PDF was on your list of rewards, your link to claim your Gifts of the Titans Backer PDF will be sent out by our BackerKit pledge manager over the next day. Since we are using our partners at DriveThruRPG as the host for this, you will need to set up a DriveThru account if you don't have one already. If you encounter any problems with downloading your rewards, please contact DTRPG's customer service to resolve the matter, they've always been top-rated for customer service. http://www.drivethrurpg.com/contact_us.php
Again, you will receive an e-mail from BackerKit with links for this reward over the next 24 hours if it is on your expected list of rewards.
You may need to login to your DTRPG account first before clicking on your redemption code, or you may need to click the redemption code a second time to have it properly add to your cart.
The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your backerkit account: https://titans-rising.backerkit.com and it'll show anything available. Your backerkit account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.
BACKER PDF VERSION
This is the first version of Gifts of the Titans to be released. The design and development teams have done their best to proofread and correct any errors and typos - but some always sneak through. If you catch any typos, incorrect math, visual glitches, and the like, we want to hear about them and correct them before we send the book off to print.
With that in mind, I'd like to introduce the Gifts of the Titans Feedback Form!
Onyx Path will be launching a special Scion: Gifts of the Titans Feedback Form, which you will be able to access here: https://forms.gle/hkcTc9uq9fPjQzUaA
They are aware of the Page XX notations - those are left in to replace for the final version once any changes you've suggested are made, so they can reference the correct page if any shifts in layout result.
Onyx Path will keep errata collection open for the next week. Please submit your feedback as soon as possible so the team can get on to finalizing this file - and working on our print version as well!
They won't be collecting errata from other spots, just this specific form.
After any needed corrections are made (based on your feedback!), they will prepare an updated final PDF version of the book and you will receive a notice from DrivethruRPG that you can re-download your file with the latest version.
You've already made the book a reality with your Kickstarter support. Now you can make it even better by helping us crowdsource any minor errors and corrections.
SO: Look for your reward email over the next 24 hours, or check your BackerKit page to see your digital reward redemption links. Review the backer PDF and submit any feedback you have, and let's make this book as awesome as possible!

Pending Rewards
With our two stretch goal supplements now out, all eyes turn to getting the books printed and the delivery of our Kickstarter hardcovers. 2025 was a challenging year for Onyx Path's printing schedule, so this year is about getting things back on track. Progress is being made, but it's incremental. I'll continue to track monthly and update you when I have new info. And I'll continue to pester the Onyx Path folks about getting those other three stretch goal rewards sorted over the rest of the year.
