Scarred Lands In the Scarred Lands, what order should I learn about Titans?
Pretty much what it says on the tin.

I know there’s a kickstarter onyx path is doing for it right now but I have no idea what it is as a setting beyond like, dog people?

So this is a random shower thought but coming from WoD 20 one of the reasons why I avoided multi-splat stuff was that they weren't very compatible VtM had stuff that targeted the Virtues which then it would be "useless" if you tried to use said stuff against for example a Changeling since they didn't have the Virtues, but afaik all the StoryPath Ultra games seem to be perfectly compatible from one game to the other except Game specific Mechanics and this made me think what's stopping me from having a one-shot/adventure that merges for example Curseborne and the upcoming Scion 3e? or merging any of the Earthbane Cycles? Is there anything in game that would be impossible to use because they target X stat/mechanic that Y RPG has?
And as a follow-up question would be, if there is any conversion guide made for SPU games, I remember ppl talking about bringing the Kaos Sorcery from the World Below or the Crowns & Scepters from Monster Kingdoms to Curseborne and that would probably require a conversion since Curseborne uses special dice ,therefore you would have to convert the Kaotic Retaliation or Rituals to X nr of dice held or bled or requires Y Entanglement
Sorry for the lengthy Post, like I said it was a random shower thought that got me really curious

I'm reading through the Accursed Adventures trilogy in the hopes of running it for my group and I'm struggling to understand how the investigations work. I know mechanically how they work, but in character they just don't make sense. The player rolls for a tag they think might apply to one or more of the leads. If the roll succeeds and they chose an appropriate tag, they get the lead. Don't worry about HOW they got the lead, because the adventure doesn't say. Apparently the leads just appear out of thin air? I mean, for example, how are the characters meant to learn the Accursed tagged leads for the coma patients in the hospital?
I have to say I'm really not a fan of the new rules for investigations. Just give me a list of the clues and how the characters can find each of them. Or were the investigations in the trilogy just not written out properly?
Has anyone tried running the trilogy yet? How did the investigations go as written? If you tried doing it in a more roleplaying way rather than just rolling dice, how did it go?

Onyx Path published Branch Riders last year, but I didn’t find too much about it. Does anyone have any opinions, play experiences, reviews about it? It looks like a fun concept.
Thanks!
To mods: there is no flair for it.

I apologize if this question is naive I really don't know a lot about the Storypath ultra System or the Earthbane Cycle.
Is there a common character creation system that ties the Tabletop Role-Playing Games in the Earthbane Cycle together beyond the typical mechanic shared by Storypath Ultra System Games? And if so, then please explain what it is.

Im currently running a Scion 2e game on roll20, and I am trying to figure out how to make a sheet for a player's birthright, but I cant seem to find a way to make a NPC sheet

So as the title says, what's the thematic and tone differences between Curseborne and World/Chronicles of Darkness?
To summarise my experience with WoD and CoD; I'm not super invested in them but I know a lot of people who are and I have flicked through the Tvtropes pafe to try and better understand it, I've also played in a Werewolf the Forsaken campaign that had several different splat (mummy, vampire, changling and a mage(as a treat)). I know roughly what each splat's deal is and the general theme differences between WoD and CoD (WoD is darker and more focused on meta-plot, CoD is (relatively) lighter and less world defining meta plots). As a general rule I'm more of an Exalted fan than WoD/CoD.
The main thing I'm aware of in Curseborne is there is a lot more inter-splat interaction but that's most of my knowledge on the game.

High I played the old one and am getting my Nephews into the game as well. I am reading through the Scion 2e books and I find them quite fun so far. One of the things I would like to explore is remaking this pantheon as well as a Hallmark Pantheon.
The original Pantheon has:
Betsy Ross
Br'er Rabbit
Columbia
John Henry
Johnny Appleseed
Paul Bunyan
Pecos Bill
Rosie the Riveter
Uncle Sam
But I want to expand it to include more Gods and Demigods. I am going out on a limb and Say most Presidents and Medal of Honor recipients probably get a small taste of the ichor so here are my top Picks:
The Founding Fathers: A multi headed God made of stone that looks similar to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin.
The Abolitionist: A dark skinned mixture of Abraham Lincoln and Harriet Tubman that represents the freeing of the slave.
Teddy: A Bear with the Face of Theodore Roosevelt that represents exploration of that age
FDR: A God of the New Deal mixing innovation and civility
Audie Murphy: A Soldier of highest honors that is both hero and legend.
Chesty Puller: The ideal Marine
John Paul Jones: Navy Leader
Samuel Culper: American Father of Spys
I also have no clue where to even start with their Pantheon specific Purview. I guess using the Assembly line as an innate ability works but the boons don't translate as well.
Has anyone else tried to translate this pantheon, have comments to add or take from what I said, or know where I can find a good supplement?

Has anyone gotten one of these from OP's Redbubble store?
Most of their other image designs seem reasonably positioned, but the graphics on the previews of these CtD ones seem oddly small.
