History

When White Wolf returned to historical settings in 2002, they relaunched Dark Ages: Vampire as a core rulebook; supplements were added for other supernatural groups, each dependent upon Dark Ages: Vampire to play. Four other Classic World of Darkness settings were published as Dark Ages spin-offs, including Dark Ages: Mage (2002).[1]

Description

This book acts as a precursor to Mage: The Ascension. It is a wildly different system from the modern counterpart, as Paradox has not quite taken hold. Because the consensus of reality is less powerful, magic itself is more bold. Rather than magic commonly being explained away by coincidence, it is often obviously the working of some powerful being.

gollark: No, "saad maan" is, not you.
gollark: Ugh, you are SIMILAR TO a triangle formed by 3 dodecahedra orbiting Pluto (dwarf planet).
gollark: I would need to spend several hours recompiling it.
gollark: It's quite big and complex.
gollark: Wow, this is actually worse.
