Launching This Week

Chosen by the gods, their power tempered only by human hearts, the Exalted are all that stand between Creation and the forces that would ruin the world. Set in a rich and intriguing setting that draws from real-world histories and fantasy archetypes, Exalted: Essence features streamlined rules for a new way of playing a classic game, incorporating story-focused action and a presentation designed to appeal to new players and longtime fans alike.

The Exalted: Essence Player’s Guide is a book chock full of player-facing content. Within, we’ll walk you through how to think about playing your character, what kind of person they might shape up to be, and how to consider their strengths and weaknesses as well as Intimacies and Virtues. Beyond advice for roleplaying, each chapter also contains dozens of new Charms for characters to take, shaping the outcome of your campaigns. 

Unlike other Exalted books, this does not contain any new setting material. It’s all about your character and your campaigns. Most books also speak directly to the Storyteller, assuming they’re the person who does most of the reading. Not so here! If you’re a player in a game of Exalted, this book is for you. You don’t have to read the whole thing cover to cover, but the section that applies to your character has so much there for you. 

Learn what it means to be Exalted.

FINAL 48 HOURS


In Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars, your player characters are the crewmembers of a war rig, venturing into battles against people from far off countries, aligned to ideals different than their own, and trying to preserve their peace, their way of life, or their rich deposits of a new, bizarre energy source: condensed coal. Your characters — the crewmembers of these war rigs — are as likely to be enlisted crooks as they are commissioned officers; gung-ho patriots as common as conscripted people from the imperial powers’ colonies. They fight because they have to. But in the fear and fog of battle, bonds form, friendships and rivalries grow, and legends are made.

Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars takes place outside the Trinity Continuum's "Alpha" timeline -- the worlds explored from Aegis to Æon -- taking place in a parallel reality, setting the stage for new adventures and discoveries.

Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars contains:

  • A complete setting based on the acclaimed graphic novel Steam Wars® with writing by Larry Blamire.
  • Detailed rules on piloting, managing, and fighting massive coal-powered giant war rigs in a parallel 19th century.
  • Six different roles you can perform on a steam rig, along with more than half a dozen Alliances involving in the Second Steam War that you can fight, ally with, or sabotage.
  • Storyguide advice, secrets, hooks, and plots, to enable you to start your game of Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars

Project Update: January 2025 Monthly Update

Hello Talents,

We start off regular monthly updates for 2025 in pretty standard form. We'll review our rewards still pending, we'll confirm which rewards have been distribued, and we'll have links to find more information, to discuss this project and the Trinity Continuum, notes on how to contact me, and a look ahead at our next project.

Rewards Still Pending


The world of manufacturing is a little chaotic right now, with pricing and timing all up in the air. The Onyx Path team continues to work on locking down the details for our hardcover print run and finishing up the Storyguide Screen to get those ready as well. I don't know when things will make sense again, but we'll continue to track in our monthly updates.

It is good to see our Stretch Goal companion book slotting into the first draft stage! Hopefully that will move quickly and we can share some previews of the contents as they become availble.

Project Update: December 2024 Update

Hello Talents,

As we move into the final days of December, it's time for our regular monthly update and the final update of the year!


A Look Back at Trinity Continuum Releases for 2024



Sure, there are some smaller releases in there like the TC: Anima wallpaper and VTT assets, but several cool TC: Æon Tasty Bits, and some great books like the TC: Aether rulebook and our TC Player's Guide!


Many of those rewards exist thanks to ongoing fan support during Onyx Path's crowdfunding campaigns, and while we didn't have a big campaign in 2024, the Trinity Continuum writers are currently working on Trinity Continuum: Steam Wars, the first tangent timeline rulebook. Maybe we'll see that in 2025? 


Or, even better, maybe we'll see some of our campaign rewards...


Rewards Still Pending


While Onyx Path sorts out the specs and timeline for printing our hardcover rewards, I'm hoping we'll see lots of dots filled in as we move through 2025. I'll pass along information as it comes to me and continue to post monthly updates so we're all on the same page.

Project Update: November 2024 Update

Hello Talents,

It's the Tuesday before the final Thursday of the month, and that means Trinity Continuum Update Day! No big news for this month, so let's get right to it!


REWARDS STILL PENDING




The team is beginning the process of setting the hardcover print run. That means confirming the specs, scheduling dates and organizing the logistics around delivery to the warehouse, and then getting test printings and confirming everything is in order. It's still a long process, but great to see forward movement.


REWARDS DISTRIBUTED TO BACKERS

CURRENTLY FUNDING

The Alchemical Exalted are the Chosen of the Machine God, biomechanical demigods forged from divine metal and heroic souls. They do not rule the Eight Nations, but serve as Champions of the people, a sacred duty greater than any ambition. The eldest of Alchemicals transcend their human forms to become metropoli, living cities that offer the Eight Nations a stronghold against Autochthonia’s perils.

The Realm of Brass and Shadows is unforgiving, and the Eight Nations find themselves faced with many challenges: cataclysmic upheavals of Autochthon’s world-machinery, incursions of gruesome techno-organic gremlins, and the ever-present threat to their livelihoods. All the while, the slumbering Autochthon grows ever sicker, his corrupting Blight metastasizing throughout his world-body. Despair not. There is work to be done.




Alchemicals: Forged by the Machine God is an expansion for the Exalted Third Edition tabletop roleplaying game. It’s set in a mythic world where spirits walk openly among humanity, warring demigods topple kingdoms, and the restless dead roam on moonless nights. Heroes granted divine power contend against one another for the future of Creation. These are the Exalted!
