Mummy: The Curse

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Interior Page from MummyWhen you trespass, 

the reason you feel 

you are being watched 

is because you are.

The fear is real.

When you steal, 

the dread that comes over you 

is neither guilt nor paranoia, 

but the cold certitude of fate.

The curse is real.

When you die, 

know that your life was but a flash 

upon the face of the deep 

in the mind of your judge.

We are real.

And we are arisen.

— Ankh-Nephris, the Hand of Wisdom

Imagine being both dead and deathless at the same time. Imagine being cradled in the arms of death for years, sometimes decades on end, but all the while knowing that you will eventually not only arise again, but awaken to an unfamiliar world that mostly fears and hates you. Now imagine that your purpose, your entire existence, is bound within this cycle -- that you are chained to it for all eternity. You sleep, you wake, your serve your Judge's will in the lands of the living, and you return to the death-sleep once more. The ancient culture that empowered you is gone, lost to the sands of time... yet you endure.

  In Mummy: The Curse, a Storytelling game set in the World of Darkness, you play one of these beings. Those who know they exist, from the cultists who serve them to the dark forces arrayed against them, call them the Deathless.

  We call them mummies.

What’s in it?

  • The first new New World of Darkness™ game since 2009.
  • Represents a step forward in the evolution of the Storytelling System.
  • Book includes a player’s section, a Storyteller’s section, and a complete S.A.S. story—everything you need to get a chronicle up and running.
  • Includes extensive information on the Deathless, from their half-remembered past to their beliefs and social conventions to their personal motivations and more.
  • Scores of new examples of both game elements (powers, relics, Merits, etc.), and new concepts, from the fivefold system of Pillars to the all-important Descent.
  • Opening fiction by award-winning author Greg Stolze.
  • Stunning original art by Sam Araya, Cathy Wilkins, Aaron Acevedo, Andrew Trabbold, Borja Linares, Vince Locke, James Denton, Marco Mazzoni, Johan Lindroos, and Tyler Winham.

Nope, the game is set in the new World of Darkness (now called Chronicles of Darkness). This games requires the World of Darkness corebook, or, with some adjustments the 2nd edition, called Chronicles of Darkness. The universe of MtC is related to Vampire the Requiem, not Masquerade.

Note on the Print Editions: Standard Color uses a thinner paper stock than Premium Color, basically the same paper as the Black & White books. This usually means the colors are less vivid, but it also means the price drops a bit per page in the production process.

Quick question, do you need the basic World of Darkness book to play this? The other core line books say they need it, as do Demon the Descent, but Mummy doesn't.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
