Chronicles of Darkness: The Contagion Chronicle is a Sourcebook for the Chronicles of Darkness that provides a setting for crossovers between gamelines.
Summary[]
From the seller's page:
- The world is ill. You have everything to lose through its sickness.
- Loss. Change. Chaos.
- Your own blood will rebel against you. Your own herd.
- Your own loved ones. Do not believe that just because you’ve had a hundred years on this earth, you’ll be exempt. Just because you were ignorant of it until now does not make you immune. Your waking to the reality of this world — of the great machine in its heart, and the sickness in its veins — is just the first step. You must find others like you and me and make them swear to drive back this Contagion. This world doesn’t have long left. You may be a monster, but perhaps with other monsters, you can drive back the destruction of everything.
- The Contagion Chronicle includes:
- The first Chronicles of Darkness book to provide guidance on playing creatures of all kinds in a shared story.
- Systems and powers enabling teams of vampires, werewolves, mages, Prometheans, changelings, Sin-Eaters, hunters, mummies, Beasts, demons, and Deviants all in the same group, encouraging you to explore all permutations of crossover.
- Over ten settings from diverse locations all around the globe, each wracked with its own Contagion, and all waiting to be explored.
