In April 2024 we presented the new Dark Eras Bundle featuring dozens of historic settings for the Chronicles of Darkness 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.
There were four titles in our Starter Collection (retail value $50) as DRM-free .PDF ebooks, including the complete Chronicles of Darkness Second Edition revised corebook (2012), the first Dark Eras sourcebook, the Dark Eras Storytellers Screen, and a fiction anthology, Tales of the Dark Eras.
Those who paid more than the threshold (average) price also got our entire Bonus Collection with four more titles worth an additional $64, including Dark Eras 2, theDark Eras Companion, the Chronicles sourcebook Hurt Locker, and a precursor to the Dark Eras, Victorian Lost.
Ten percent of each payment (after gateway fees) went to this Dark Eras offer’s designated charity, the Diana Jones Award Emerging Designer Program. Each year, the Diana Jones Award for Excellence in Gaming, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, amplifies the voices of up-and-coming game designers by featuring them during an expenses-paid visit to Gen Con. The global Emerging Designer Program focuses on creators from marginalized communities.
