December 2025: Reward Distribution - WAR GAMES!
6 months ago – Thu, Dec 18, 2025 at 06:40:47 AM

Hello Titans,

'Tis a busy season, but I'll squeeze in quickly with our regular monthly update. The schedule is all discombobulated this month anyway, but I'm coming in a bit earlier than planned because I've got a reward to distribute!

Remember this Stretch Goal from our campaign?

Well, it's time to get that Stretch Goal out to you!

Reward Distribution: WAR GAMES Backer PDF

The Titanomachy is not the only war over which the Gods loom. The Polemomakhia is a fierce competition between Gods and their Scions that influences the outbreak of wars in the World. In Scion: War Games, the Polemomakhia is taking place, but this time, Titanic Scions want their shot to have a say in the shape and impact of future conflicts.

As Titanic Scions, the players’ characters have a critically important choice ahead of them: do they help their Titanic cousins planning to sabotage the Games, or do they play the Games straight, trying to win them outright so that they can gain the legitimacy that many Titanic Scions crave?

War Games contains:

  • An adventure for Hero and Demigod tiers of play using the ready-made characters found in Titans Rising.
  • Story seeds in this book carry forward to other tiers of Scion play — Origin and God — allowing Storyguides to create a chronicle focused on the Polemomakhia through all tiers.

REWARD DISTRIBUTION

If this PDF was on your list of rewards, your link to claim your Scion: War Games 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 Scion: War Games 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 War Games Feedback Form!

Onyx Path will be launching a special Scion: War Games Feedback Form, which you will be able to access here: https://forms.gle/DApM7yRyUBqZ233w8

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!

If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://titans-rising.backerkit.com

REWARDS STILL PENDING

Onyx Path will use your feedback to finalize War Games and then you'll be able to download the final version anytime from your digital library on DriveThruRPG. Onyx Path is also in the process of printing their first book with a new printing partner, and hopefully it goes smoothly and they can spend 2026 catching up on some of the print production that has been so challenging over the past 16 months. I'll continue to track their progress and share new information in our monthly updates throughout 2026.

HOURS LEFT - INFERNALS: CROWNED BY HELLFIRE

The Infernal Exalted arise, clad in brass and hellish wonders, to punish the world. 

Chosen for their spite and grievance, the Infernal Exalted command the alien powers of Hell itself. In the Demon Realm, they are crowned as the Green Sun Princes, the heroes who will give the Yozis their much deserved vengeance. In Creation, they are the fulfillment of prophecy for cults the world over — the hellish heroes who will topple the temples of the gods. For all the expectations placed upon them, though, it is up to each Infernal to answer the ultimate question for themselves: What will you become, when anything is possible? 

This Exalted Third Edition sourcebook provides everything players and Storytellers need to introduce the Infernals to their story. Inside you will find:

  • Rules for creating your own Infernal characters, including their strange, overwhelming Charms.
  • New character options, including artifacts, a new martial art, and lost arts of the highest circle of sorcery. 
  • Setting information for the Demon Realm and its cults in Creation. 
  • A roster of demons to serve as allies, adversaries, and bound servitors. 

Final Hours, Last Chance to Join In

November 2025 Update
7 months ago – Tue, Nov 25, 2025 at 08:36:51 AM

Hello Titans!

We're getting close on a Stretch Goal, but not there yet. We've got an artwork sneak peek, but with the schedule over the next 5 weeks, I don't think we'll see the finished War Games supplement until early 2026. So let's have some artwork and get excited about what the new year will bring!

A taste of our Wargames adventure supplement! Currently in the layout phase, so get ready for some Titanic adventures in 2026!

Rewards Still Pending

After a chaotic and turbulent year, Onyx Path has found a new printing partner for their hardcover rewards. They're currently working through their first project with them, and hopefully it all goes smoothly and they can start building a print schedule for 2026 and will be able to move our Titans Rising and Titanomachy hardcover books foward. Until then, I'll stay excied about our Stretch Goal supplements, with War Games hopefully delivering early in the new year!

Hello Titans,

The Scion team has been working hard behind the scenes on several projects. No big changes in our listing quite yet, but the crew are definitely crossing things off the list. Let's review our projects.

Rewards Still Pending

The War Games supplement is currently in second, active phase of Art Direction, where the artists are actually in the process of creating the illustrations for the book. Gifts of the Titans is right behind that, waiting for schedules to line up and contracts to be signed. We'll know we're getting closer as artwork starts to sneak out.

FINAL WEEK - CURESBORNE PLAYER'S GUIDE

  • Nine new families of Accursed!
  • New Role Paths, Lineage Torments, and spells
  • Fully playable Venators
  • Fully playable orphaned Accursed 
  • Quick-build and random character templates

The Curseborne Player’s Guide is primarily focused on the players at the table who take on the role of individual characters. If you’re a Storyguide, you can expect to find ideas that help you prompt the other players and frame their place in the world. Use these to create details that resonate with a player’s intentions and to direct the story to places where the main characters’ themes and concepts can flourish. Other players can expect to find tools to develop your character, both in your narration and on your character sheet.

In this book, we introduce grounding concepts for playing the Accursed, providing role-playing hooks and touchstones rooted in the world they find themselves. These are intended for both brand-new players looking for a place to start and for players in the middle of a story who are open to new angles and complications. We expand on all the types of Accursed introduced in the Curseborne corebook, including those who don’t have a family to call their own, but also provide even more ways to express and wield the power of curses through new spells. We even add a new angle to the world of Curseborne as we present playable rules for the monster-hunting Venators, who contend with the same supernatural forces as the Accursed without Damnations of their own.

You can join in and support the project here

September 2025 Monthly Update
9 months ago – Wed, Sep 17, 2025 at 07:55:03 AM

Hello Titans,

We're in the final two weeks of September, so it's time for our regular monthly update. I was kinda shocked at how fast the summer went by, and then I realized I'd labelled the last two updates as July, so somehow I got lost in those sunny days for a while. 

Anyway, here we are and let's get to it! First up, the latest Scion release is now available in Advance PDF from DTRPG! Check it out...

Are You Ready To Rock?

Scion: Rock Gods and Road Trips - now available as an Advance PDF from DTPRG.

Rock Gods & Road Trips takes the legend-fueled, epic narrative of Scion and puts it on a tour bus on the path to fame and glory. In this book, celebrity and Legend merge in a thrilling combination of badass story beats, mythic concerts, and road-trip shenanigans.

Rock Gods & Road Trips expands the scope of Scion in a direction never explored before, using the episodic nature of serialized media to turn up the volume on places in the World where Scion fight for stardom, the meaning of their art, and the strength of their Legend against rival bands, disapproving divine parents, and Fate itself.

Some of this book’s features are:

  • The Mythic Engine, a new system meant to empower episodic storytelling in Scion!
  • An entire tour of ready-made scenarios detailing a Band of rockstar Scions’ ascent to fame!
  • Tools to enhance mythical stories set on the road, including memorable locations touched by legends, music-themed antagonists, cryptids, and more!
  • New Boons and Birthrights meant to be the best equipment roadies and rockstars can count on! 

Note: This is the Advance PDF. We'll be collecting feedback before preparing the final PDF and Print versions of the book. Anyone who downloads this Advance PDF will automatically get the final PDF added to their DriveThruRPG library for free. They will also get a discount on the Print version once that is ready to go live.

Rewards Still Pending

Onyx Path are still dealing with the titanic struggles of the printing industry and the chaos caused by ever-changing tariffs. Hopefully they'll have a plan soon and get the hardcover production in motion. I'll continue to monitor their monday meeting notes and include updates with new info as it becomes available.

FINAL WEEK - MONSTER KINGDOMS

Funded and adding Stretch Goals! Check it out!

In Monster Kingdoms, you play a creature of darkness. You may be vampiric magus, or feyborn harlequin. You might be a warrior gauntlet, an orc cultist, a druidic elf, or a flame-spitting dragonkin. You can play a wildly creative goblinoid, a chaotic dwarf, a fierce ice elementor, or a shame-filled fiend.  Your characters can be anything from hulking dreadnauts to disturbing mentalists, and many Mantles in between. 

Name your weapon and make it your sceptre.

Slay a beast and seize its crown.

Build your infamy either as a monster or as a servant of the light. Perform deeds worthy of repute: vanquishing a beast greater than yourself, toppling a lord from his tower and seizing control of his lands and people, or freeing slaves to weaken the Malignant Mind. A character’s infamy is a means of measuring their success in the Monster Kingdoms, whether virtuous or vicious. The only unworthy deeds are the ones no one hears about.

In the chaos of the Monster Kingdoms, now is your time to make a mark and shape the world to your liking.

Monster Kingdoms is a complete tabletop roleplaying game of dark fantasy, where evil is a natural state, adventure boasts horror and violence, and politics are cutthroat. It includes:

  • A massive number of playable monstrous characters.
  • A dangerous setting encompassing 13 unique, competing kingdoms.
  • The entire dynamic Storypath Ultra system.
