Now that we have fortified our knowledge of other Chronicles of Darkness gamelines, we are ready for Changeling: the Lost crossovers that involve them—and what luck, we happen to have a few in the second Dark Eras book. We’re covering two of these today: Seven Wonders, a joint venture with Promethean: the Created; and Arthur’s Britannia, where Hunter: the Vigil and Vampire: the Requiem both come into play. In the first instance, travel back with us to the classical Hellenistic world of the 200s BCE, where architectural marvels looming over the landscape provide a source of awe that doubles as a path towards understanding humanity and a bulwark against the Others. And in the second instance, the Dark Ages truly begin over war-torn Britain as different groups struggle for power over Camelot and its denizens. Once again, these modules offer a chance to explore how strong the themes and narratives of each game are, when displaced into new contexts. As always, we have some opinions about how well they’ve succeeded.

For reference, our episodes on the crossovers with each game involved are at:
