If I'm playing a game like The World Below or At The Gates and I wanted to play a kind of warrior-wizard who fights with a two-handed sword that doubles as their wizard staff, would that just require the Versatile tag?

Hi, first time posting here.

I have a question about damage in Storypath Ultra if anyone would be kind enough to clarify. I've played plenty of Scion 2e but SPU seems to handle damage and injuries differently. In Scion, you'd take an injury and get an Injury Condition associated with it; in SPU it seems you take the injury but the status effect is optional to avoid the injury.

Is this correct or am I missing something?

Writing something up for my players and i came across a bit of an hick up regarding how to value Powers against Edges.

I thought i could just translate them 1:1. Lets say Major Path A gets 8 Points of Edges. Path B gets 5 Points of Edges and 3 one point Powers.

But following the Guidelines in the Core Manual, Powers seem to be quite underpowered (ha!) compared to the same Points n Edges.

Maybe someone has an Idea how to balance them?

What are your thoughts so far?

On the subject of the Backerkit previews, the art seems like there are a lot of large enemies that the players can fight/interact with.

On ch1, I like how the chapter resents the different types of people who would become Jadebearers and the summary overview of the initial player options, adversaries, and factions/philosophies.

You?

I re-listened to the Earthbane Cycle panel from OPP Con 2026 where Jadestorm got announced. And I grabbed any mention of Jadestorm in the Monday Meeting Notes post OPP Con 2026.

Note: I don't know any behind the scenes information on Jadestorm, everything I compiled is based on notes I took while listening to the Earthbane podcast and copy+pasted from the Monday Meeting Notes.

ALL INFORMATION IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE, and I DEFINITELY could have misheard/spelled things wrong.

Here are my notes.

Here is a TLDR bulleted list of my notes (human made).

OPP Con 2026 - Earthbane Cycle Panel:

• Jadestorm is the 4th game in the Earthbane Cycle
• Themes of: Extreme heroic fantasy, Wushia/Wuxia inspired (also Gilgamesh)
• Setting: Eos, a fractured land of at least 9 realms. Takes place one generation after an Infernal war where 66 demons fought each other result in the destruction of the Underworld and fracturing the world into pieces.
• Mechanical Theme: High power level setting.
• Jade/Cinders: After the 66 Demons destroyed one another they erupted into cinders/shards of Jade which embedded themselves into people, animals, monsters, plants, rocks, etc... creating Jadebearers, beings with power granted to them via the Jade cinders. It is not stated if you can play a Jadebearer who was an animal or inanimate object prior to gaining your Jade.
  • Gaining/Losing Jade: Characters can caputre, steal, and lear powers from other Jadebearers/Cinders.
  • Demonic Whispers: The demons within the shards can communicate. The demons might provide assistance to characters if the characters do something terrible for the demon.
• Paths:
  • Hook Path - Represents the culmination of your life when you were a slightly mundane individual.
  • Bloodline Path - Represents where your species/ancestory. Includes humans and non-humans. Some bloodlines are similar to other character options found in the Earthbane Cycle (No examples given though).
  • Philosophy Path - Represents how you understand your power.
• Magic/Abilities: Jadebearers have access to Sorceries and Chains.
  • Chains - Chains are a Fist full of Dice style mechanic where the max cap of dice is removed in Jadestorm.
  • Sorceries - Not much was discussed, but some examples of non-martial arts based moves included summoning thunderstorms and using scrolls to bind entire groups to your character's bidding.
• Dueling:
  • Most Jadebearers will duel for cinders instead of to death. So defeating someone in a duel will revert them back to a normal person/creature/rock/etc... once they lose all their cinders.
  • It seems like even if you lose all your Jade you can still reclaim more to become a Jadebearer again, but you'll be severely underpowered going up against other creatures with Jade.
  • My best guess: Maybe some Jadebearers are more feral than others meaning that they have to be killed. But it could be like stories like "Androcles and the Lion" where by removing a thorn (i.e. Jade) you revert the Jadebearer to a docile state unless it was already hostile to begin with.
• Advesaries:
  • Demons got referred to as Malefics.
  • Enemies are quite varied in typing, but most seem to be in some way affected by Jade.
  • Jadebearer enemy types run the gambit of: human, human-adjacent, animals, plants, monsters (i.e. monsters prior to getting Jade, I'm assuming), minerals, etc...
  • Description of Plant Jadebearers were plants that can walk on their roots.
  • Description of Mineral Jadebearers included a "Shadow of the Colossus" style giant being.
• Tides:
  • New template specifically for Jadestorm
  • Statblock representing more than 1 enemy such as groups of between 10 to 1000+ enemies.
  • Can be used for swarms, mobs, armies, etc...
  • Example given were cultists worshipping a Jadebearer.
  • How strong/weak a Tide is is dependent on how many enemies are in Tide, unlocking or locking certain techniques and abilities based on the Tide's size.
  • Chains are the main way to deal with Tides as the more you use Chains the more potent your attacks become.
  • Whereas Monster Kingdom has Mass Combat of Armies vs Armies, in my opinion Jadestorm is based on Mass Combat of a powerful player character vs armies but can also do armies vs armies.
• Exalted:
  • Matthew mentioned that comparing Jadestorm to Exalted isn't an unfair comparison since they are both Asian inspired, but Jadestorm focuses more on mass battles like in Wuxia media.
• Questions:
  • There were no questions specifically directed at Jadestorm, but when asked about which Earthbane Cycle included Fae representation Monster Kingdoms was the one pointed to as having the most Fae representation. Makes me assume that Jadestorm has very few Fae like beings or doesn't have Fae.

Monday Meeting Notes:

June 8, 2026 

• For the growing fantasy-verse that is the Earthbane Cycle, we announced a new setting called Jadestorm that promises to bring a higher overall power level to our Cycle! We don’t want to say much about it as yet, but Matthew and some of his writing team may have teased just a few bits of it during the Earthbane panel!
• Matthew - At this year’s Onyx Path Con, my highlight was seeing the unmitigated enthusiasm for Jadestorm, Curseborne: Covenant, and Scion 3rd Edition! Everything we were able to say about these games was received with excitement and a flurry of questions, so going into the mechanics behind Chains (for your fistful of dice for Jadestorm), the ideas and implementation of conspiracies (in Curseborne: Covenant), and the teasers we can provide for Scion, was all a joy. Thank you to the fans who viewed live and interacted with us! You really make the convention worthwhile.

July 6, 2026 - Red lines - Jadestorm (Earthbane Cycle)

• Have a tiny preview of the Sword Saint Discipline from Jadestorm!
  • Sword Saints are wandering paragons of will and steel, disciples of both blade and spirit. Where others rely on brute strength or rigid formation, they cultivate the unity of motion and intent. Their armor may be light or ceremonial, their garb flowing like banners in the wind, but their presence weighs upon the battlefield like fate itself. Each movement is deliberate; each strike a verse in a longer story of justice.
  • Sword Saints must devote their bodies and spirits. They walk a narrow path between conviction and obsession, guided by personal codes that may align with heaven, their sect, or their own hard-won understanding of the world. Their strength lies in the certainty of their purpose.

July 20, 2026 - Final Draft - Jadestorm (Earthbane Cycle)

• Matthew has also sent over a fantastic snippet from the upcoming Earthbane Cycle fantasy game Jadestorm that provides some cool info on Chains in the game. What are they? Check out the excerpt below in the progress reports section!
  • Now we enter final drafts, so it’s time to tease Chains: the first SPU mechanic that allows you to roll fistfuls of dice above the usual ten cap, without breaking the system!
• Elemental Tsunami
  • With but a word, the Jade inside calls outward, finding that with which it resonates and giving it a slither of its infernal power. This fragment of energy, as small as it is, is sufficient to summon great volumes of the elements, causing the ground to shake and spear skyward, flames to roar into life as if summoned from a dragon’s maw, or waves to rush across the ground, washing away everything the Jadebearer considers beneath them. The Jadebearer’s allies are exempt from this rush of nature, proof of their utter dominion over all.
  • Skill: Esoterica
  • Prerequisites: Esoterica 3, Shadesinger, Stormbringer, Wordbinder
  • Action Type: Simple
  • Difficulty: 2
  • Duration: 1 scene
• Chain Links:
  • First link: Attacks made by the Jadebearer receive +1 Enhancement and gain one of the following tags: Crushing, Electrified, Flaming, or Freezing. The Storyguide can allow trivial effects of elemental change as well, such as brighter flames, lighting the weight of something, or creating small amounts of water.
  • Second link (2 hits, Multi-link): Choose one of the following area effects and apply it against all targets of your choice within medium range: Flooding, Fortified, On Fire, Overgrowth, or Quaking. Each purchase of the link raises the level of Complication applied. This effect is centered on the area in which it was cast, but may of course spill out of control naturally.
  • Chain Breaker (3 hits): Summon an Elemental ally to assist you.
• Eruption of the Inner Cinder
  • While Jadebearers carry within themselves enough of the Malefic’s cinder to manifest its power directly, tiny splinters of these fractured souls are embedded within a great many citizens of Eos. By beseeching the spirit of the unmade infernals, the Jadebearer causes that splinter to grow and seek out more of the same. The eruption is short lived, but deadly.
  • Skill: Leadership
  • Prerequisites: Leadership 3, Shadesinger, Soulweaver, Wordbinder
  • Action Type: Simple
  • Difficulty: Opponent’s defense
  • Duration: 1 scene
• Chain Links:
  • First link: The opponent gains the Slowed status effect as their tissue begins to calcify.
  • Second link (2 hits): Thorns of blood red Jade erupt from their body, inflicting them with the Impaled status effect.
  • Third link (2 hits, Multi-link): The Jadebearer directs the crystalline vines to spear an additional victim for each purchase of this link. Targets must be within medium range of an already impaled victim, and have either the Nascent or Risen template.
  • Chain Breaker (3 hits): All victims gain the Petrified status effect. If they’re reduced to 0 injuries or still impaled by the scene’s end, they become statues of pure Jade.

July 27, 2026 

• Jadestorm – this is the latest Earthbane Cycle fantasy game that we’ll be crowdfunding after Lair of the Rat Kings – hopefully pretty quickly after Rat Kings is over. Fantasy, high-powered, “wuxia” some have called it; all in a world where the jade shards of warring demons/gods slammed into the earth, and into plants and animals, and intelligent beings, too, and changed them!
• Jadestorm (BK) – Getting changes over to Gong and Navella… Matthew is typing something up as I don’t have a way to type up a long email at the moment.

August 3, 2026 - Development - Jadestorm (Earthbane Cycle)

• Jadestorm enters development this week (just in time for me to go away on holiday)! Chains seemed to spike some interest, so expect a lot of focus on those fun new combo powers as we close in the crowdfunder. In the meantime, here’s another fantastic element: fighting multiple foes (a Tide) as one Jadebearer!
• Tide
  • Tides are faceless crowds that fight as a single antagonist: waves of charging swordsmen, packs of beasts, riots, or an honor guard converging from every alley and doorway. Tides are immediately overwhelming, if only due to numbers alone, but as the Tide takes injuries and begins to thin, its effective threat diminishes. Tides are particularly susceptible to the Wavering status effect and Breaking. Tides can be small (10-500 figures), modest (500-1,000 figures), or large (more than 1,000 figures), which affects their traits as detailed below. Tides cannot engage in duels, but they may be Worthy and have access to Sorceries, depending on the origins of their members.
  • Primary Pool: 8/9/10
  • Secondary Pool: 6/7/8
  • Desperation Pool: 4/4/5
  • Size: Small / Modest / Large
  • Enhancements: +1/+2/+3 to attacks within close range.
  • Defense: 2/2/3
  • Integrity: 1/2/3
  • Injuries: 4/5/6
  • Armor: 0-2
  • Initiative: 4
  • Qualities: 1-4/4/5; Most Tides will have the Encircling, Endless Tide, and Pressing Bodies qualities, as seen in the examples below, and an additional one or two qualities depending on their size. This best represents the threats that large bodies of enemies pose to the party, but Storyguides should feel free to adjust according to specific situations.
  • Moves: 1-4/4/5
  • Thinning: Each Injury the Tide takes reduces its primary and secondary pools by 1.
  • Leader: Tides may be attached to a single antagonist of Risen tier or higher, designated as the leader. The leader has their own separate stats according to their template. If the leader is Taken Out or otherwise removed from the Area, the Tide immediately becomes Wavering and makes a reflexive Break action.
• Wavering and Breaking
  • Enemies in Jadestorm, especially sentient ones, don’t normally fight to the death. A scattered crowd, a rival whose composure has finally cracked, a champion who suddenly remembers that they have a different story to tell — these are the moments that Breaking aims to capture.
• The Break Action
  • A Wavering character makes a reflexive Break action whenever the situation against them shifts unfavorably — a new injury, a new status effect, an attached leader falling, or any other discrete effect that worsens the situation for the character.
  • When making a Break action, antagonists roll their desperation pool against a difficulty determined by their current situation. The base difficulty is always 1. Upon success, enemies remain to continue fighting. Upon failure, enemies Break, fleeing the Area.

August 10, 2026 

• Gonna take the opportunity to read through the Jadestorm text Matthew sent my way (in preparation for its crowdfunder coming up really soon in August), and keeping rolling on more Curseborne Covenant symbols! You folks have a great week, and I’ll talk to y’all next week!
• Coming to Crowdfunding Next in August! Jadestorm for the Earthbane Cycle!
• Jadestorm (BK) – Gong’s finals are in… Navella should have them in the next few days. Meanwhile I continue to work on the logo and prep the crowdfunder assets.

A Stockpile of Monsters - Volume 1

A new series of antagonists for Storypath Ultra, with a focus on high-fantasy action-adventure games!

Monster Qualities and Powers that you didn't even know you needed!

Me making good use of the shitload of stock art I've acquired over the years!

A sober, clean, black-and-white layout because I'm a rebel!

More to come! (hopefully)

So, I recently bought the manual and I am currently reading it. There is a lot to be liked about this system: I especially love how the tricks work and the fact that every skill comes with examples on how to match it with different attributes. I am slightly perplexed by how combat works, though. Actually, I really like how damage is handled (even though I would make the critical strike trick repeatable, which is something the manual itself covers). The only thing I am perolexed about is the defence action: first it uses only Stamina, second I don't get why it would be necessary. Personally, I think that it would be better to use the lowest between Stamina and Dexterity, envisioning defending yourself as a complex action requiring both attributes. However, I don't claim to understand the reasoning of the developers flawlessly, it may very well be that I haven't understood how this mechanism was created. This is why I ask: is there a concept I fail to grasp underneath this choice of having the Defence reaction work the way it works? If not, don't you think it would've been better to involve Dexterity in the action?

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 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.

Does one exist? Even a fan-made one? Couldn't find one on DriveThruRPG. Though I did see TC Core, etc screens out there.

Going through the Storypath Ultra - Core Manual, I've tried to combine the character creation process with the existing TC: Adventure rules. For those with any experience with this, am I missing anything?

Step One: Concept

• Character Name
• Background
• Aspirations

Step Two: Paths

• Origin:
• Role:
• Society:
• Gain Skill dots and Edge dots from each Path
  • StoryPath Changes: 
  • Dot ratings in Paths are ignored.
  • Select one Path that grants 3 dots in Contacts
  • The remaining two Paths grant 1 dot in Contacts each.
  • This means the character starts with 3 contacts minimum (if they drop all three dots in one contact) and 5 contacts maximum
  • Contacts are NPCs that start with a single tag per dot

Step Three: Skills, Skill Tricks, and Specialties

• Assign six dots in Skills (5 dots is the maximum for Skills)
  • Aim, Athletics, Close Combat, Command, Culture, Empathy, Enigmas, Humanities, Integrity, Larceny, Medicine, Persuasion, Pilot, Science, Survival, Technology
• Select Specialties for any Skills with a high enough rating
• Select one Skill Trick in a Skill rated three or higher.
  • StoryPath Changes: Skill Tricks are generally converted to Edges

Step Four: Attributes

• Prioritize each Arena of Attributes (Physical, Social, Mental) and select your character's favored Approach
  • Attributes: Intellect, Might, Presence, Cunning, Dexterity, Manipulation, Resolve, Stamina, Composure
  • Each Attribute starts with one dot
  • Approach: Force, Finesse, Resilience
  • Assign dots in Attributes, 5 dots is the maximum for Attributes.
  • top-ranked Arena: 6 dots in Attributes
  • middle-ranked Arena: 4 dots in Attributes
  • lowest-ranked Arena: 2 dots in Attributes

Step Five: Moment of Inspiration

• Decide how the moment of Inspiration occurred and what the character became: Daredevil, Stalwart, or Mesmerist

Step Six: Add Advantages

• Assign three points between Facets 
  • Destructive, Intuitive, Reflective
• Inspiration Pool calculation: 1 point + one additional point for each Facet rated at 1 or 2, two additional points for Facet rated at 3 or 4 and three additional points for Facet rated at 5.
• Gain four Gifts. The character must meet the requirements of any Gift selected.
  • Daredevils: gain one Gift from each Path associated with the Paths Keyword and one Gift chosen from any Keyword regardless of Path
  • Stalwarts: gain three Gifts from their favored Approach and one additional Gift regardless of Approach.
  • Mesmerists: choose Biological, Cognitive, or Energetic as their primary Psychic Gift type and gain three Gifts from that group and one additional Gift from outside that group.

Step Seven: Final Touches

• Calculate Health and Defense Ratings
• Assign one bonus dot to any Attribute
• Spend four dots on Edges, these Edges can come from outside of your character's path; however, any other requirement for the Edge must be met.

General StoryPath Changes:

• Dice Rolling: Storypath dice resolution is replaced by the one in the Storypath Ultra book, pages 17 - 22.
• replace the word "Successes" with "Hits"
• Rolling a 10 creates 2 Hits (no more roll again)
• 9-again and 8-again both become 'double 9'
• Difficulties greater than 5 are reduced to 5
• Complications rated greater than 3 are reduced to 3 (Major). Successes with complications generally add the Complication rating to the Difficulty (Difficulty is still capped at 5)
• Divide Enhancements in half, rounded up. Any Enhancement greater than 3 is reduced to 3. Enhancements no longer stack, the highest rated Enhancement is applied. Total enhancement cannot exceed 5.
• Tricks costing more than 3 hits should be reduced to 3. Variable cost tricks are now 1-3 cost Tricks.
• Additional changes can be found in the StoryPath Ultra - Core Manual, pages 109 - 113.

I have been reading through Storypath Ultra to prep a little one shot for one of my friends using Pinfall from Grace, but I'm a little confused about the Bonds (just in general but also specifically with Pinfall).

So, Bonds are described as a pool of Enhancement. Does that mean that each player just has floating Enhancements that can be spent on any roll that involves the Bond? For example, say a Character has a Negative Bond of 2 with a specific enemy. Would that Character make an attack or something against that enemy and then have the option to get +2 Enhancement? If so, do they have to declare they're using it before the roll or can they do it after? Once they use it, though, the Bond against that enemy is spent until the next session, right?

Now, specifically for Pinfall, you have a Bond with the Audience, either as a Face (positive Bond) or a Hell (negative Bond). With the Moves you can purchase, you have to use Audience Bonds to purchase Face moves or Heel moves. But, on page 138, it says that a PC can only use the bond with their angelic partner in a match. So the Face and Heel keywords in Move costs seem completely useless because you can't actually get the Enhancements from your Bond with the Audience.

If anyone can help me with understanding Bonds, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

I am looking for a system to use for a homebrew scifi setting which is similar to the Expanse and Mothership in vibe.

I do not like Trinity because it is too steeped in its own setting, and is focused on psions. my setting is for mundane mortals.
