I like the product and that it is very neat and effective way to add the Imbued into the H5 system without altering the framework at all. Fairly comprehensive to set up as well although I would hope in future updates, there will be more expansion with Edges, Perks and Loresheets. The additional lore is nice with the 'Second Coming' of the Messengers and fits the tone to the T. As it stands, it satisifies me for now and would definitly hope in the future this project is updated and expanded.
Pros
-Very easy and clean way to add the Imbued to an exisitng system.
-Good lore bits
-Interesting Loresheets
Cons
-Some typos and formatting error. Easily ignored though one or two did confuse me (pg 11,pg 18 redeemer)
-Expansion with more Edges based on the old Imbued. Whats been added from the old Imbued in Edges were - Matyrdom,Redemption, bits of Visionary. Would hope for more updates on Vengeance, Defense, Solitude, Innocence, Judgement, Matrydom, Deviance and more Visionary.

Thanks for your review!
Can you explain what exactly is confusing? So we can update the PDF.

Fun additions to the changeling lore and contracts. Well put together and easy to understand. I am using and enjoying Blight and Bloom and Princess in Rags in my current character

Excelente material. O livro é muito bem escrito, com artes e diagramação impecáveis. Os capítulos "Geografia" e "Personagens" são os melhores. Pelo trabalho imposto na elaboração do material, o livro sai praticamente de graça. Recomendo.

I have had the chance of both playing this LARP and directing it and I must say it is great and works very well. It's not a usual Vampire LARP, as it focuses more in the psychological side of the damage the vampires can do and the trauma that it leaves in the humans, which are the PCs.

Are you a WtA Storyteller? Would you like to get more into the lore of the Garou? What are you waiting for?

An Oldy but a Goody. I ordered the print version of this and it came out amazingly well. The printing was good quality and the art looks just as good as the first time I owned it. This book is a must have for any WtA Storyteller. Not only does it give yo ready made Fetishes but gives the rules for creating your own.

I love this book. I love being able to play the Inquisition, no holds barred. It really helped setting up my modern game by allowing me to create a bad guy that was generational. I highly recommend this. The printed version of this book is just beautiful and I have to say it was a great addition to my collection.

I really like the mechanics that this adds to the game. After getting into Dark Ages and Wild West, the mechanics and rules for mounted combat were very helpful. I dont think you can go wrong purchasing this for your games.

If you play Rage Across New York or New York By Night, you will want this book. It is really well thought out. I was very pleased with the setting. The characters are really well written and I was pleaseed with the overall flow with the book itself. I recommend to get this and flesh out your Ney York Setting.

Several new Contracts, updated Goblin Fruit Farming, and new and well thought out Entitlements! I was proud to help with the development of this book. It is a must for every Changeling Storyteller's toolkit!

The Peasants Revolt is a rich and beautifully expansive product and the fact that it has not recieved little attention thus far is frankly tragic. To begin with, this work is split into two books: one in-universe for players and the other detailing the chronicle itself for storytellers. Both of these combined come to a total of nearly 500 pages, which for the price they're asking for is an absolute steal!
The Guide to Wincester is full colour and includes brilliant comic sections that detail both the backdrop for the campaign and the history of the domain. The rest of the book covers the locales found throughout the Wincester Fief and profiles on many of the chronicle's NPCs.
The Chronicle itself has perhaps a somewhat misleading title as this story begins over ten years after the titular revolt had been brutally put down. However, the themes and burning resentments of that revolution remain bubbling beneath the surface. Rather, the chronicle details the events of the Inquisition, Anarch Revolt, and the rise of the Camarilla (which, of course, will come to hold its infamous Convention of Thorns within the Wincester Fief). The Chronicle can span the better part of a century leading up to that critical moment.
Much of the book is taken up by a great wealth of detailed Vampire NPCs and then goes on to detail several Mage NPCs and even a newish breed of Supernatural: Celtic Mummies! Additionally we are shown a new form of ravenous Tremere servant invented by Goratrix, and foreboding clockwork soldiers.
All in all, The Peasants Revolt is a beautifully written and illustrated guide to a deeply political Dark Ages campaign, and clearly a labour of great love. If you are a fan of Vampire, it behoves you to pick this up (with the price they're asking for, you really have no excuse)!

It *was* a labour of love, so I was very touched and grateful for your kind words. Thank you!
I was lucky to work with some wonderful artists on this project, many of whom are also working with me on the modern continuation of the setting. (If you liked the comics in Dark Winchester, wait until you see the introductory comic for the modern sourcebook - it's stunning). I wanted to make it easy for players and Storytellers to visualise the setting and characters, and thanks to their beautiful illustrations, I think it is.

A thoughtful look at the damage that vampires cause the kine and how those left behind must recognize and reason with their abuse.

This is very nice. It's a short book with a simple theme - how to create a character which a given clan would want to Embrace, who you could imagine fitting into a clan, without creating a character that matches the usual stereotype of that clan. And it does that very successfully. The bulk of the book is a set of characters who demonstrate how that idea can work for different clans. They would make a useful reference for a Storyteller looking to add an interesting NPC or two. They'd also make a great inspiration for players looking to create something a little different. Well worth a look!

England Will Burn is a highly detailed view of 13th century England from a vampires lens. The book includes detailed descriptors of London, Wincester, Ely, Chester, and Carlisle; along with a number of smaller sights such as Lancaster and Southhampton. Each section includes a vampiric history and gazateer for the region, along with statted descriptors of every vampire in the area (including coterie charts to explore the political relations). They also include beautiful maps of both the towns/ citys and the surrounding domain, along with full colour illustrations of each NPC.
It's clear that the author knows their history and I wouln't be surprised if they are a historian themselves. However, for all the detail, there were some things I would love to have seen that were absent in this work. The first of which is more juicy descriptions of the domains themselves: the geography sections mostly describe the area's religious and administrative buildings. It would have been great to see some taverns where kindred meet or secret underground catacombs to add further flavour to the vampire underworld.
The next thing I would have liked to see was more talk of vampire relations with other supernaturals in Britain as, unlike in modern times, they are far more likely to clash with them. And the lack of such creatures makes the surrounding domains feel somewhat bare. Finally, it would have been cool to have some plot hooks for each area as each domain feels very well organised and self contained whch can make it challenging to find ways to insert a player coterie into them.
Overall however, this is a highly detailed guide to Dark Ages England with a brepth of content to fill your long nights!
