Scion is an RPG from Onyx Path Publishing in which PCs become gods or lesser-power creatures. In some mythologies, Titans are the enemies of those gods, making the Titans Rising and Titanomachy expansion an exciting project for fans.
Kickstarter’s staff seem to like it, and the crowdfunding project has been given a “Project We Love” badge. The campaign has $30,000 to raise and a month to do it. You can watch the progress or join the project.
The first clash of the Titans, the Titanomachy, ended a millennia ago in the Scion world, but now the Titans are back, some refusing to stay dead, and rather than a holy war, it’s a mythic cold war.
Onyx Path says that the scope of the supplement means that new high-level gameplay can be explored in new ways for Scion.
Titanomachy includes the Titans from pantheons introduced in Scions, plot seeds for the Second Titanomachy, new antagonists and new Titan-theme Birthrights and Knacks.
Titan Rising, the second book in the project, has rules for creating Titanic Scions at Origin, Hero, Demigod, and God-tier characters, profiles and agendas, pre-Visitation to post-Apotheosis Antagonists and dozens of suitable seeds.
Titans Rising builds on the foundations of Scion: Titanomachy, explaining the grand conflict between the Gods and Titans. It delves into the very heart of Titanhood, revealing that some Titans truly are just misunderstood and that conflict based on whom someone’s parents are is problematic at best. The book presents Titanic Scions — not just as playable characters, but as heroes, despite their bitter conflicts with some of Scion’s more established names, like Eric Donner, Yukiko Kuromizu, and Little Mao. Can your game’s Scions repair the rift between Gods and Titans?
There are several pledge tiers, and at $5, backers get access to the manuscript previews of the books that Onyx Path typically make available, the ability to buy into digital add os and the post-campaign pledge manager.
At $25, the tier rewards increase to Titans Rising PDFs and a discounted print-on-demand option for the book as well.
The Titanomachy PDF and discounted print-on-demand option are layered at $35, expanding the rewards.
$60 tier backers, get the Titans Rising hardcover added.
It’s a leap to get the Titanomachy hardcover as well, without using add-ons, as that tier is listed as $105.
After the retailer tier, special options such as naming an NPC ($360 tier bonus) and the supply a photo reference ($460 tier) unlock.
The PDFs are slated for March 2025, and the hardcovers have worldwide shipping support in September.
