A million miles away in terms of content compared to 1st and especially compared to 3rd edition. The hardcover book is a beautiful B&W reprint. Honestly, a lot of people think 2nd edition is a bit clunky, but to me it improved on 1st and doesnt contain all the social justice white knighting and gender politicing that OP Exalted does. That for me is not needed in any rpg. The art is in general superior and the book wont break your arm to hold. EAT a load of this Onyx Path, your Exalted sucks, this is the real deal. ...

I love this book. I think it tackles common questions in a detailed and straightforward way, crucially without destroying the mystery or metaphysics of Mage. The World of Darkness (WoD) is a mysterious and contradictory monster (IMHO by design), so I assume most players have been involved in conversations discussing how fitting the WoD together could work. Example queries:
* How many Mages are there and how does this affect the Ascension War?
* How much violent crime does different parts of the WoD have, what does that violence translate social-economically? From when the games were originally created, how do we track the changes in real life to WoD?
* How does money work in a world of seemingly abundant Supernatural power, and in particular mind control?
And so forth, with each answer typically resulting in more fun queries. I love this about RPGs in general, that my groups and I get to decipher and decide; I’d very much have appreciated this sort of book back in the 90s, when w...

These cards are quite possibly the most useful thing to have come out of Storyteller's Vault so far.
They're well-executed, well-sized, and generally awesome. My players are going to love them! I printed them out onto heavy cardstock and anticipate much 'ooohing' and 'aaaahing'.
Thanks so much for making these!

An excellent book that answered questions I didn't know I needed to ask! The only reason it's not a 5-star rating is that there's always room for improvement, and that some of the sections were unclear about which was the default setting assumption in "canon" Ascension.

The Secret Frequency has long been my favourite part of the Darker Days Radio podcast, so a supplement dedicated to these plot hooks is very welcome.
The book provides some fascinating little hooks and elements drawing upon real-world esoterica and folklore. Each section does a good job in introducing the initial lore before going on to explore how to bring them into your games. Some of them are definitely stronger than others, with the chapter on Black Dogs in particular being one i found interesting with lots of potential (though I will admit to a long time fascination with black dog lore in any case).
All in all, a good place to start when looking for something new to introduce to your chronicle....

100 Uktena Kinfolk is another solid contribution to the vault. This product is a useful tool when looking for quick npc with a little personality and background. The book gives us a 100 different character names with about a paragraph of background and personality information for each.
The Tabletop Gaming Club found the book useful during their weekly game and recommends this book to storytellers who want to flush out their Uktena based games with little work. We look forward to similiar work from this author....

A wonderful book that explores the various options a storyteller has when creating their own World of Darkness through the Mage paradigm. While the base gamebooks offer their own view of the World of Darkness, there is a vast array of options and questions left for the storyteller to answer. What does it mean if the world had a high mage population? How organized are the various Traditions / Crafts / Conventions? In what ways are the shadows in your World of Darkness deeper than our world? *Is it* darker than our world? Depending on where you live, mundane reality may be dark enough for your chronicle as is. This book offers many options to help new and experienced storytellers alike flesh out their worlds, with plot hooks and fleshed out options to bring that extra flavor to any campaign. While absolutely made for Mage, I believe this book is worthwhile to any storyteller, as the base questions are mostly the same for all game lines. Highly recommend. ...
Great book containing many types of non-player characters and options for player characters or supporting NPCs. The cast of characters presented is diverse (which i liked very much) and interesting.

Well written, contains many interesting plot hooks and a more detailed and realistic depiction of Brazil in the World of Darkness, gracefully avoiding the classic WoD take of "5 guys who've never been to (place) writing an account on it's supernatural and human history without ever even consulting anybody with in-depth knowledge of it"

An excellent supplement, which fits right into Changeling 20th and adds some fascinating new kiths. Truely inspired by the card game, but far from limited by it, it gives flesh to the bones that game provided and presents a fascinating new array of kiths that can easily be dropped in as color, played by a PC wanting something new, exciting, or different, or provide a competely new direction to a chronicle. And an utter bargain for the price. Excellent writing and great art! Throughly enjoyed!

The kiths presented are very well written and mesh well with the others- a dragonkin or imp could easily slip into any Dreaming game without raising an eyebrow. The kiths have interesting mechanics without being contrived or overpowered, and I especially appreciate the inclusion of some steampunk elements via the mechorgs. The art is also fantastic. Overall a professionally written product, and I look forward to seeing more!

Incredibly unique kiths, and lots of fun to read. Great artwork. Honeslty, one of the best C:tD supplements to come out of Storytellers Vault. Now I have to figure out how to implement some of them in my game! Well worth the price, and I hope to see more from these creators.
