At a crossroads of the lower planes, past the ancient portal called the Threshold and its twin stone guardians, lies The Darkness. It is a grim and foreboding place of otherworldly aspect, where rivers of molten iron flow across a desolate landscape of smoldering plains, virulent swamps, and forests of pale deadwood trees. By day, a black sun casts dark shadows over the region. By night, the sun sets, and the land is lit by the wan light of distant stars, moons, and suns.
Welcome to the dark side; welcome to The Darkness: An eerie twilight world inhabited by Tarteran demon hunters, Ebonite soul traders, merciless Brood reapers, and many other terrifying and mysterious denizens of the lower planes.
The Darkness requires the use of the Omni System core book and can be played as a stand-alone dark fantasy game or it can be used as an add-on to other Omni System games such as Atlantis: The Second Age.

As I sit here at my desk, hands numbed by the pains of time, I ponder a question, my brethren. Have we, like so many now say, failed in the eyes of Primus? For if not, what has drawn us to this precipitous edge which we, both body and immortal soul, now stand upon? Yet there are those amongst the peoples outside of Sanctus (and even some within) who would say we stand upon the edge of a glorious new age. This paper is written both to examine the falsehoods of this statement and to shed light upon the true nature of our dilemma.
While it is true that my eyesight has dimmed with age, I find it difficult to think that any could not have seen the devastation wrought by the Successor Wars. Those of you who have known naught in your life but that strife may find it hard to believe that once, not so long ago, Old Thelacia stood a bountiful land and the beautiful capital of these once-proud lands. My aged eyes dim more so with the tears I continue to shed for that loss. My memories of a happier time also recall skies that were not choked with the filth of Industry and dotted with those infernal dirigibles; where honest beasts were used for transportation rather than these Primus-forsaken "motorcarriages" belching out their poisons and making the air thick with their racket; where honest men did battle with their strong right arms, a good sword, and the will of Primus to guide them; where the Inhumans were brought to Faith and truth; where once the words of Primus were respected and feared rather than questioned. Yes, all of these things and more are the truths of where our "Golden Age" lies - in the ashes of the Empire." Coming March 2006.
Unhallowed
SKU: MOG 14058 MSRP: $24.99 Authors: Rucht Lilavivat ISBN: 0-9739323-7-6 
A horror sourcebook for the Omni System. Edge horror is a genre of horror that relatively new. This genre relies more on style and presentation to define it rather than subject matter or theme. It emphasizes vivid imagery and a focus on small details. It relies on an iceberg method of horror, only showing the audience enough of something to make it terrifying. Fiction or movies of this genre are works of high-tension, where a constant level of threat or mistrust pervades the scene. Finally, edge horror is primarily about real people and the way they interact with each other.
A prime example of edge horror would be the film The Ring. Throughout either movie, it’s the small details that are the most horrifying. The image of a single book, or a pail of water can be used to evoke feelings of dread and terror. Something as simple as a ladder propped up against a wall is just as threatening to participants in the story as any demon or wraith. More importantly, The Ring is really about the struggle of different characters thrown together in an extraordinary circumstance.

Born to be wild!!
"What happened to the world? We thought we had it good. Land of the free and home of the brave. Yeah right! 9/11 may have have opened our eyes and shown us that we are not invulnerable but where did we go from there. Ten years after that September day in 2001 look at where we are: an unelected administration into an unprecedented fourth term in office, American corporations actually running foreign governments, armed mercenaries patrolling our own neighborhoods, all of Bolivarian Latin America is ready to descend on us and our government continues to tell us everything is ok. If ever there was time for revolution its now! Our government has gone from bad to worse and has abandoned the principles on which this country was founded. We cannot allow the fascists to rule our nation. Fight the power!"
History and mythology clash on many of the world’s monster stories. Just as a shard of truth can exist within a web of lies, misinterpretation can make a falsehood out of a very real evil. One such evil are the Deathless. In the Far East, they have been called the Jiangshi. In Ancient Greece they were the Lamiae, the Strigoi, and the Vrykolakas. The Babylonians knew them as Ekimmu, and the Indians feared the demons known as the Baital. Among their own kind, they are the Deathless. Vampires.
