This is to Chronicles of Darkness what the Sorcerer books are to World of Darkness.

The first chapter of this book gives a large number of supernatural merits and special options for activating supernatural merits. This provides a plethora of options to mortal characters, from talking to animals to ripping out people's souls and storing them in jars. I think supernatural merits are a wonderful way to allow some oddness into the various gamelines while ensuring that the splats don't get too powerful with abilities they were never expected to have.

The second chapter dives into psychics and thaumaturges. Both of these are merit templates that feel very different from one another despite serving a primary purpose of supporting other supernatural merits. If you want a vodoun or a wiccan to have actual working magic, and you don't want to have to dive into Mage then this book has your back. Both psychic and thaumaturge have their own bundle of supernatural merits to support your other merits, or to just let you do other awesome things.

The third chapter is centered around things that should not be (aka. Cthulhu and friends). There are rules for creating things that should not be, which are ephemeral beings but with some extra powerful options (ie. influence: matter). There's also rules for using the horror system to create manifested horrors. And what would beings like that be without cultists, who have special merits and blasphemous rites. The chapter ends with a couple example things that should not be and one of their cults.

Overall if you like supernatural merits this book is a must have, if you want magic in your world and don't want to have every spell slinger be a mage, this book is a must have.

Second Sight Third Eye serves as an update of World of Darkness: Second Sight. This product bring us the psychic template, updating psychics for 2e chronicles of darkness. Alos included are 6 magical traditions for Thaumaturges, including Vodoun and Shamans, which help flesh out the various trapping of each magical style. The final chapter deals a lot with various horrors that could exist in the world and the cults that worship them.

The Tabletop Gaming Club found this book a useful tool for our chronicle of darkness game. We adapted quite a few things that were presented in this product to our Lovecraftian-esque campaign. We recommend this book as a welcome addtion to any storytellers library.
