Dark Eras sourcebook for the Chronicles of DarknessAdventurer! This new Dark Eras Bundle presents dozens of historic settings for the Chronicles of Darkness tabletop roleplaying game of gothic horror from Onyx Path Publishing. We have shared the world with monsters for millennia. In the time of Alexander the God-King, mages fought their secret wars. In Elizabeth's London, vampires built their own empire brick by bloody brick. Before the founding of America, hunters fought enemies within and without. And in the Cold War, as the clock ticked towards Armageddon, we could have been damned by fallen angels. Dark Eras reveals the world throughout its long and storied past. Learn secret histories from the flame-lit Neolithic to the 1970s, from pharaonic Egypt to the Scandinavian witch trials, from Arthurian Britain to the Great War and beyond. Each setting features character creation rules and story hooks for two or three Chronicles of Darkness game lines, including Vampire: The Requiem, Mage: The Awakening, Hunter: The Vigil, Changeling: The Lost, and more.

For just US$9.95 you get all four titles in our Starter Collection (retail value $50) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete Chronicles of Darkness Second Edition revised corebook (2012), the first Dark Eras sourcebook, the Dark Eras Storytellers Screen, and a collection of short stories, Tales of the Dark Eras.

Dark Eras Companion sourcebook for the Chronicles of DarknessAnd if you pay more than the threshold price of $25.80, you'll level up and also get our entire Bonus Collection with four more titles worth an additional $64, including Dark Eras 2, the Dark Eras Companion, the Chronicles of Darkness sourcebook Hurt Locker, and a precursor to the Dark Eras line, Victorian Lost.

(PS: Chronicles of Darkness players, check out the 75% discount sale, while supplies last, on the limited edition Chronicles of Darkness: Dark Eras 2 hardcover at Indie Press Revolution – a US$50 retail value for just $12.50.)
