My response remains "I doubt it, but hope springs eternal."
Of course the people writing the book are not allowed to share this info before it is released, so...

[FallenEco]

Really goes well with how Demon treats the subject....

[FallenEco]

Oh yes, most certainly....

[FallenEco]

True, but we don't have Aberrant 2e and the far future setting (1000+ after Æon) is the most likely place to find time travel, either Quantum or paramorph based. Since the later is way off and it is unlikely to show up in the former (noted by being from a supplement), it is likely to be as close to an official word for quite some time.

We might see the Crosstime Travel power make a return though, as it plays into the powers of Talents and the description of the Continuum.

[FallenEco]

I can see Hades and Persphone both being annoyed by this tale,while Aphrodite tries to enforce it....

[FallenEco]

Seconded. It is close...

[FallenEco]

Time Travel was a power in the Aberrant players guide in 1st ed. That counts as support right?

[FallenEco]

And special merits and Nightmares. Those can really alter the balance....

[FallenEco]

I think most edge cases will be passed over in the Corebook. Fetches and Pandorans are lower priorities than say, Blood Sorcery and Alchemy. Additional books could go into the side-character details.

[FallenEco]

And Angels would get hit in a Demon book, if not their section....

[FallenEco]

Yeah...it does exactly play a major role in the setting. It does allow for some funky tech, but those rules got shifted to the Æon Æxpansion. If not there, we might see it down the line.

Plus there have been issues with writing those stories down. I recall an advocate telling my class that he had to compromise with the elders to disseminate their accessible lore through audio records, because "we speak our stories". Obviously that is just one group out of many, but I doubt they are alone with that line of thinking.

[FallenEco]

There are mortal-only supernatural merits, a number of which are tied to 'mini-templates'. Hurt Locker is a Chronicles book, as were Immortals, Inferno and Skinchangers (albeit in first edition). Heck, if the Contagion messes with metaphysics, mundane humans may be affected by the 'domino effect', if nothing else.

Plus, we know that is where Cahlith dream prophecies come from....

Seres : Milk it for all its worth, make sure no passengers get in the way.
Lans : Race in and get onboard before anyone could stop him.
Us/Ash: board the train and making sure all eyes are on us. Let's be that distraction.
Gaze-of-the-Sun: Flying reserve, ready for when things go wrong.
Serge and Bo can drive the tower.

Agreed, but that is oddly easy to achieve. Someone walks in on a vamp having a snack in a Poorly Lit allyway and fails that Integrity roll? Chamber. Or no one walks in and the leech drains a person dry and fails the Humanity roll, again Chamber. Iron Master werewolf hunt gone wrong can easily create a Chamber. A Promethean enters torment and a crowd ends up lynching them in the throws of Disquiet and someone doesn't make the roll. It is not hard to have a supernatural present and only slightly harder to tie them directly to the loss of Integrity.

Heck, winter and summer can provide...

Beasts don't actually have to be there when the breaking point occured,as along as they have sufficently researched the event and internalized the fear. Chambers form easily. Claiming them is much, much harder.

The adventures that came with the books were called "the Avarice Chronicles" after the Dreams of Avarice. We could end up with something like that. Or akin to Mage and it's 'subtitle' (the Fallen World), it could be tied to the constant ongoing effect that afflicts these immortal beings. The Descent may be taken, but notion certainly carries weight here....

[FallenEco]

Derailing the train has more potential complications and stopping the train has only slightly fewer. So I vote for intercepting the train.

Dedwen changes, evolves. As such, the stick of worthiness, the founding pillar of the Mesen-Nebu, is also changing. And so they must toil to prove they deserve to be who they are, to illustrate they are still excellent at the gate of prosperity, that their golden blood has not cost them their coin into heaven.

And don't forget, the ability to transmute Dedwen to serve one's will purifies it, giving rise to Sekehm (in theory). So you have to use your wealth for your own ends, exercising your Will.

As far as external issues; the Mesen-Nebu see our modern biases and want...
