Description 

I know that look of disgust in your eyes.
You can't hide it from me.


I've seen all its expressions in many faces like your own.
I am intimately familiar with rejection.
Yes, these scars and stitched wounds are horrifying to behold.
Were I truly alive, they'd be enough to kill me.

But I am not alive.
Not yet.


Not in the way you know it.
A fire burns within me and animates this dead flesh,
these legs that have wandered the far regions of the Earth,
these hands that have killed men.

And I walk with a purpose.
You will not stand in my way.
These hands have killed men.


A Storytelling Game of Stolen Lives

Prometheans are soulless corpses animated by a mysterious, alchemical force — the Divine Fire stolen from the gods. Their hideousness forces humans, animals, and even nature itself to reject them on an instinctual level. They wander the dark places of the world, seeking what their creators denied them: humanity.

A New Game set in the World of Darkness

  • A whole new type of character for players, inspired by the classic Frankenstein monster and the worldwide myths of Golems
  • Explores aspects of the World of Darkness unknown to the other game lines
  • Strange new antagonists and mysteries to unravel for players of any World of Darkness game


US Page Count: 288 (hardcover).

Authors: Bill Bridges, Justin Achilli, Alan Alexander, Conrad Hubbard, Carl Bowen, Matt McFarland, Howard Ingham, Joseph Carriker, Rick Chillot. Developer: Bill Bridges

Promethean : The Created
Amazing. White Wolf has delved into so much to create this one of a kind book. the premise of playing monsters is not a new one but while the other games focus on characters who were once human, Promethean tells you the story of a creature who never had what we take for granted every day. this change is the key for understanding this game. this allows for a very different feel to both the story and for the creation of the players characters. an amazing job White Wolf, bravo!

Good Concept
Promethean as a new concept and entry to the WOD is great. You play this souless being who's trying to learn and understand the human condition and thus, become human. However, the concept also seems limited too. Due to the Wastelands that get created by a Promethean staying in one place too long, or the anger that's incited over time due to their unnatural state, a ST needs to prepare to have their chronicle and troop on the move. The game isn't necessarilly for everyone and I'd discourage the player(s) who think they'll play this game or any WOD for power and beat down instead of focusing on story and characterization.
