Originally released in 2009, Geist: The Sin-Eaters was a sleeper hit for the Chronicles of Darkness, finally bringing “life” to the realm of ghosts and death. And now this game of second chances gets a second edition, with Geist: The Sin-Eaters 2nd Edition, offering a revised and updated rules system and an expanded setting.

Hello Kickstarter Krewe,
Nothing major for you yet, but wanted to send our month-end update (actually, let's call it the year-end update) to make sure communication is constant and consistent.
So, let's get down to the nitty-gritty and get some Project Status, Reward Status, and Kickstarter Concierge notes covered!
Project Status
The latest status on Geist-related projects, taken from the latest Onyx Path Monday Notes blog:
So, still lots of ground to cover, but progress is being made!

They Came From Beneath The Sea! is a new tabletop RPG from Onyx Path, encompassing the wonder, horror, thrills, and hilarity of 1950s science fiction. This game evokes all that is great in the B-movies of decades ago, and provides a dynamic, fun experience at the table.
The players, as humans, live in a world under increasing attack. The attackers? Aliens from beneath the sea, obviously!
Adventures can range from the one-shot defense of small coastal town, to the lengthier liberation of a cruise ship invested with gill-kin, all the way to a campaign in which characters seize an alien submarine and ride it all the way down to the sea bed to take the fight to the invaders.
Put down your malt shakes, turn on the jukebox, and prepare your harpoons! You don’t want to be caught unawares when it’s revealed that They Came From Beneath The Sea!

Hello Kickstarter Krewe,
Welcome to November 2018, and an early entry in what will be our regular monthly status updates. And, to prepare you, many of these will be similar: "Progress is still being made, we're moving forward, but it'll be some time still before the project is complete."
Why is James dressed as a vampire? Isn't Halloween over? Read on to find out...
Quick Summary: Hoping to have another reward sent out within the next month, but it'll be a while before we start to get close to the final Geist PDF or some of the other Stretch Goal PDFs. Stay tuned, and enjoy the ride!
The easiest way to see if you've got digital downloads available is to login to your backerkit account: https://geist2e.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards and it'll show anything available. Your backerkit account should also confirm all rewards that you should expect from your reward tier selected.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://geist2e.backerkit.com

Speaking of which... (and answering why James is dressed as a vampire!)
Chicago lies at the center of the web that is the American heartland. Tendrils of power, wealth, and reward stretch outward, ensnaring the selfish, greedy, and unwary.
Yet, Chicago attracts its predators, too.
There are creatures that would have the city for their own, spinning their own webs of malice and intrigue. But among the city’s towering skyscrapers and wind-swept streets, who is the spider and who is the fly?
Chicago By Night, an updated edition of White Wolf’s bestselling city book, will be Onyx Path Publishing’s first supplement for Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition.
In this hardcover supplement, you will find descriptions of most of the Kindred inhabitants of Chicago, complete with 5th Edition write ups; the secret history of Chicago with detailed maps and geographical details; relationship details and factions; and dozens of encounters organized by theme, which provide Storytellers a means to make the setting come alive for the players.

Reward Day! Backer T-Shirt Link

– Wed, Sep 26, 2018 at 10:10:03 PM
Hello Kickstarter Krewe,
It's James, your point person for this Kickstarter campaign.
Welcome to Autumn (if you're not in the Southern hemisphere, I guess. Or the Underworld... do they even have seasons there?)
As mentioned on the last day of the Kickstarter campaign, I will be sending out an update near the end of each month, doing my best to keep our communication constant and consistent.
We've had our Backerkit surveys out for just over a month now, and we've hit some solid numbers - I think we're over 90% completed! Which is great! It means that we're able to start some reward fulfillment (not the book... that'll still be a long ways off...) and are able to keep track of everyone's reward list and pledges.
FIRST REWARD
Remember this victory during the campaign? We unlocked a Kickstarter Backer T-shirt, which will be discounted and hosted on the Onyx Path redbubble store for a limited time. Well, that limited time begins today:
It's sort of a wearable Backer Badge! For ONE WEEK ONLY, Onyx Path has zero mark-up on this item, so you'll be paying only the manufacturing and shipping costs. Available in multiple styles, colors, and sizes here: GEIST T-SHIRT. Order yours now before it fades away...
Again: This will be available to order for ONE WEEK ONLY so don't delay...
And, just a reminder to confirm your rewards in your BackerKit survey, if you haven't done so already.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://geist2e.backerkit.com
If you used your Facebook credentials to log in to your Kickstarter account, the BackerKit survey is sent to the email address you use for your Facebook account. If you have another email address that you prefer to use, please contact support at https://geist2e.backerkit.com/faq
If you have any other questions or concerns, you can post them to the comments for this update, the comment section, or contact the team via the Contact Creator link on the kickstarter page and I will get your e-mail.
