description: Did your heart seize up in your chest a little when I said that? It should. Those horrors you've dreamed of all your life - the arms dragging you down into the ooze, the thing with fangs and too many legs waiting in the dark, the sleek, silent killer dropping on you from a clear sky - they're real. But don't fret, little brother. You'll never have to wake up in fear, ever again. The nightmares are real...and you're one of them. Now, let us feast."-ZmeiYou are one of the Begotten, the living embodiment of a primal nightmare of humanity. Your soul, your Horror, is a monstrous creature - maybe something that humanity dreamed and wrote down and still speaks of in legends, or maybe some outlandish horror that no living person has ever seen. You are a Beast, and you must feed. Your Hunger drives you, and your Hunger might damn you. Indulge too lightly and your Horror will take matters into its own hands, roaming the Primordial Dream for sustenance and awakening murderous hatred in spiritually weak individuals. Feed too deeply and too often, and you become sluggish, sacrificing the raw edge of Hunger for the languor of Satiety. You must decide how to grow your Legend - will you be the monster incarnate, the thing that all other monsters fear? Or are you doomed to die under a Hero's sword? This book contains:- The complete guide to playing a Beast in Chronicles of Darkness- A game system designed for crossover with the other Chronicles of Darkness lines- A look at the Beasts and their broods all around the world, from Vancouver to Tokyo- Rules for Heroes, the deluded individuals who think that this is their story
