Changeling: New World of Darkness

We've gone over the White Wolf merger with CCP. Great. So far, the upcoming sourcebooks for the World of Darkness RPGs are still being released. Promethean was the WW release for 2006. The 2007 project is Changeling.

The scoop on the White Wolf forums is that both Promethean and Changeling will be a big presence for the WOD world but have few sourcebooks. The concept is to make the entire WOD more integrated. Basically, all the GMs, aka "Storytellers," will be running Mish-Mash games versus the single venues. It's a way to get that twist of reality into a fantasy/sci-fi RPG. I mean, lets face it: If the WOD did exist, there would be a mix of different types of supernaturals.

Changeling is slated for release in August 2007 and should debut in time for GenCon Indy. The info for the release was gathered at the 2006 GenCon SoCal from the chick who runs the WolfPack Team.

White Wolf gives this quote from Changeling developer, Ethan Skemp:
Changeling is a game of beauty and cruelty, of passion and loss, of dreams and madness. You have struggled your way back through the thorns only to find your life had been stolen from you. Now you make your way the best you can, attempting to piece together the fragments of your lost life or to forge a new one, chasing your ambition through the intrigues of the changeling courts and freeholds, and always looking over your shoulder lest the Others, the true Fae, return for you.
