Hello Gatecrashers,
As we slide through the final week of September, it's time to post our Stretch Goal project tracker and also check in with the greater Exalted world and see what's going on.
NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE
I mean, in terms of Lunars, it's good to know your enemies, right? And now you can read up on the Dragon-Blooded in ...
HEIRS TO THE SHOGUNATE
Now available in PDF and print from DriveThruRPG: Heirs to the Shogunate for Exalted 3rd Edition!
Centuries ago, the tumultuous Dragon-Blooded Shogunate ruled much of the known world. Its glory and grandeur fell into ashes amid the Great Contagion, but today new empires blaze high from its embers.
Haughty Dynasts feasting amid the stolen treasures of the Threshold; proud Seventh Legion officers clad in panoplies of jade; lone outcastes struggling to carve out a heroic legend at the world’s edge — they’re all heirs to the Shogunate, yet they each stand on their own as a prince of the earth.
Heirs to the Shogunate details the Realm’s cadet houses and secondary schools, the military city-state of Lookshy, Prasad’s expanding empire, the weird Forest Witches, and outcastes. It also contains new Dragon-Blooded Charms, heirloom artifacts, and Quick Characters. Lastly, it describes the impending Realm Civil War, including a fully playable scenario depicting the War in the West.

Harano is the state in which a werewolf finds themselves, when they succumb to despair. Some Garou look dimly on such kin, believing it is no way to end a life. “Self sacrifice is the only true way to meet the Apocalypse!” they cry, as they rush into battle. Those in Harano merely pine for what once was, and what they believe never can be.
Except, they’re wrong.
W20: THEAPOCALYPTIC RECORD is a capstone book designed to conclude the Werewolf: The Apocalypse 20th Anniversary Edition game line, tying up your stories and paving the way for what may come next...

Hello Gatecrashers,
We're in the final week of July, so it's time for our regular month end updates. I've got two quick bits of related stuff to go over before our regular project check-in.
EXALTED: EXPLORING THE REALM
As mentioned in our previous updates, I'm happy to share this video from the Onyx Path Virtual Gaming Convention 2021 Exalted panel, with panelists Dixie Cochran, Eric Minton, Elliott Freeman, Lauren Roy, and Neall Raemonn Price! They discuss the world of Exalted - the Realm - and what you can do there as players and Storytellers!
And another bit that we'd mentioned in the previous updates... Exalted: Essence! Our recent crowdfunding campaign for this alternate rule set for Exalted Third Edition is over, but you can still order a copy early now that that the Pre-Order Page has opened: <EXALTED: ESSENCE PRE-ORDER PAGE>

June 2021 Update
over 3 years ago
– Thu, Jun 24, 2021 at 08:41:17 PM
Hello Gatecrashers,
I'm sending out our month end update a little bit early (though not too early) for a couple of simple reasons. First, I'm hoping to take a teeny bit of time off over the next few weeks and want to make sure that I've got our regular reviews out.
And secondly, the current Kickstarter campaign for Exalted: Essence ends in under 24 hours. I'm sure most of those who backed this campaign are already onboard over there, but just in case someone hasn't heard yet...
The campaign has been a huge success, and we've unlocked 33 Stretch Goals so far. The hope is to grow the Exalted fanbase and get even more gamers engaging with Creation and the Exalted, so I really hope you check it out if you haven't already. And anyone who backs has access to the current draft manuscript, so you can even give it a read before the campaign ends (if you can read really really fast).
They haven't yet posted the Exalted panel from the recent Onyx Path Con, so I hope to have that available to share with you next month. It was full of epic Exalted goodness, talking about many of the current and future Exalted Third Edition products that are on the go. Instead I'll share the Opening Ceremony, which is less Exalted-specific, but touches on the general Onyx Path state of things.

May 2021 Update
over 3 years ago
– Thu, May 27, 2021 at 06:13:28 PM
Hello Gatecrashers,
No big news on Many-Faced Strangers yet, that's still in the works. I'll list our our project status in a bit.
But we do have some other news from around Creation today...
Exalted Essence is a streamlined version of Exalted Third Edition, designed to welcome new players and reintroduce old friends to the world of Creation. It contains all the mechanics and advice players and Storytellers need to run complete games of Exalted Essence, though setting material and character, place, and creature ideas can be supplemented by the core line’s content.
All the material in the book is compatible with Exalted Third Edition, so new and established fans can collect the core line’s books and use them with a beginner-friendly and less mechanically dense system. Inside you will find:
Rules for creating all 10 Exalt types: Solars, Dragon-Blooded, Lunars, Exigents, Sidereals, Abyssals, Infernals, Getimians, Liminals, and Alchemicals.
A brief overview of Creation, so players and Storytellers can dive right in.
Rules for Universal and Exalt-specific Charms, Artifacts, Martial Arts, Sorcery and Necromancy, and more!
Advice for running and playing Exalted with mixed parties or same-Exalt parties, in multiple interesting styles of play.
Remember, this is not a new Edition - it's a new Addition. If you're looking for more information, I've got two great things to check out - the Kickstarter (of course!), and the upcoming Onyx Path online convention!
ONYX PATH VIRTUAL GAMING CONVENTION
Before I review our reward status, let me announce (or, copy Onyx Path's announcement!) the Second Onyx Path Virtual Gameing Convention will be coming to you live starting Friday, June 11th and running until Sunday, June 13th (including a special post-con Jackbox gamefest Sunday night hosted by Dixie)!
The GM Sign-up Page & Code of Conduct for OPP Con are now live:
Here are some listings for their planned panels and Actual Play sessions:
A few things to highlight in there:
The Exalted: Exploring the Realm panel on Friday, June 11th at 8:00 PM EDT will probably help us know what our Dragon-blooded enemies are up to! Plus the What's Up With Onyx Path? panel on Saturday, June 12th at 12:00 PM EDT will likely contain some notes about future Exalted content.
You can see the Exalted: Essence system in play on Sunday, June 13th at 2:00 PM EDT in an actual play.

While we're waiting for our stretch goals to shift forward, there has been some other movement in the Exalted project schedule that may keep things moving. The Exigents book for Exalted Third Edition is now in Post-Approval Development, and working it's way to the eventual deluxe edition kickstarter, I'm sure. In addition to Exalted: Essence launching on Kickstarter today, Dragon-blooded kickstarter backers will be receiving their stretch goal Heirs to the Shogunate companion very soon, so a bunch of shifts in the greater Exalted project list, which will hopefully add some momentum to our two final rewards.
As always, I will continue to post our list of delivered and pending rewards with each monthly update, so that we can track everything that's needed and keep on the same page.
