Howlings[]
The only things that stays the same is that everything changes. We've juggled our format around a little here at the Night Edition, and as you'll soon see, we've added a sister publication called the Sword and Sorcery Insider covering our impressive range of Sword & Sorcery Studios products. The landscape of the World of Darkness s changing as well. 2002 is the Year of the Damned, and the repercussions of it could be more lasting and devastating than the Year of the Reckoning and the Year of the Scarab combined. But if radical change isn't your style, check out some of your old vampiric favorites in the Encyclopedia Vampirica and Vampire: The Eternal Struggle's Camarilla Edition.

The Roll of the Damned[]
For centuries, the Kindred have hidden from the wary eyes of mortals. These enigmatic creatures' efforts to upload the Masquerade have often succeeded even beyond their own desires, and few Kindred of the modern nights even know those outside their immediate domains. But the long and terrible history of the undead is as broad and sweeping as the myriad Kindred who make it.
The List of the Undead[]
A collection of Cainties both past and present, this book compiles references to the Children of Caine from a host of past sources. It's a handy hardcover, limited edition reference volume for Storytellers who want an exhaustive list of characters in the game without giving away all of their secrets by revealing their stats. It is also an excellent prop for characters to find in the course of a story. For who is it who would watch and record the motions of the Kindred so diligently and for so long?
Coming Soon[]
Demon: The Fallen[]
We shed the light at the dawn of man. We loved you and protected you and made your existence a perfect paradise, just as our Creator commanded. Yet, all that time, we were forbidden from revealing our presence to you. You languished in ignorance, never able to fully appreciate what we did for you.
Inevitably, we defied our divine proscription, made ourselves known to you and went to war with each other for love of you. And for our love, we were punished and imprisoned for millennia by the very Creator who made us love you so.
Yet now we've escaped, and we're among you once again. You may have forgotten all we did for you, but we have not. We're going to show you all just how much you really need us. We're going to show you how much we've all been thinking about you while we were locked away. And woe be unto those of you who don't appreciate the hell we've been through.

The Trilogy of the Second Age[]
Before there was a World of Darkness, there was something else. It was a land of turmoil in the Second Age of man. It was a time of high adventure and heroes reborn. It was a setting of savage peril and sprawling decadence. It was the world of the Exalted. The Trilogy of the Second Age is the first White Wolf fiction series set in this fantastic time and place. It follows the exploits of two newly exalted heroes from very different backgrounds as they struggle against Dragon-Blooded and the lords of the dead, in order to survive and change the world for the better.
Ask your local retailed for these exciting and fascinating books, all of which are available now.

Possessed: A Players Guide[]
Spirit and Flesh Made One[]
Most were once human. Some were once animals, or even plants or stones. Now all are something else. Some have been seduced by the spirits of the Wyrm, and their bodies show the power and taint of the entity within. Others have achieved the perfection of the Weaver, the flux of the Wyld or the grace of Gaia. All are now Possessed.
Our Name Is Legion[]
Possessed: A Players Guide is the guide to the dual entities created - fomori, Drones, gorgons and Kami - when a spirit takes command a mortal host.

Dark Ages: Europe[]
Shadowed Kingdoms[]
The peace of the Long Night is over, and we must fight for our very survival. Each of us, the so-called lords of the night, claims domains and influence across this fractured continent. Some of us stand as feudal lords, others as gods, but it is over these lands and these hearts we do battle.

Heresies of the Way[]
The Mad Dance[]
For centuries, the Quincunx had advocated its truths as absolute and without peer, destroying all those who would refute its ways. For centuries, however, a handful of dharmas have survived the Quincunx's tyranny, following belief structures alien to the Middle Kingdom. Now, with the Sixth Age nigh, the so-called heretical dharmas grow in strength. Do they herald an even darker future or are they merely tools of the Akuma?
Five Little Dancers[]
Heresies of the Way is a Kindred of the East sourcebook dealing with the heretical dharmas and their motivations. In addition to offering greater information on their histories, abilities and outlooks, this sourcebook deals with a brand-new dharma: The Scorpion Eaters. Heresies of the Way also ties into Year of the Damned by presenting five dharmas that have sacrificed much for power - and survival.Stock # WW2922, ISBN 1-58846-232-3, $19.95 U.S.
