April Scion 2e Update!

Hello Scion Backers!
RichT here:
Well, this has also been a most unusual month, with most of our creators at home with their families, whether working their day jobs or doing freelance stuff for us. All of us at Onyx Path hope that you are all keeping safe and healthy.
My reminders from last month's update seem even more pertinent during this time when you may want more material for your Scion games, so here they are again:
An update and a reminder about the Storypath Nexus Community Content site, which seems to get new projects posted every day, here with the link for that excellent resource for Scion fans and creators:
Also, if you want to watch Scion being played, either for fun or more as a demo, please check out our Onyx Path Twitch channel. We publish the weekly schedule every Monday in the Monday Meeting Notes Blog (which is also where I get the info for the Status Reports here in the Update).
Finally, we just released Scion signature character two token packs on DTRPG for VTT play of Scion. Here are the links:
Here are the current Scion projects we're working on!

Scion LARP Rules - Editing
Titanomancy - Post-Editing Development and Art Direction
Scion Companion: Mysteries of the World - Proofing
OUR CURRENT KICKSTARTER!
Welcome to the Future
As the third decade of the 21st century dawns, the Technocratic Union stands on the cutting edge of a future imperiled. As science and technology draw humanity closer than ever before, certain factions within the Masses display gross negligence, undermining the Union’s work and endangering the world for shortsighted gains. Despite global telecommunications, new frontiers in virtually every field of study, and an understanding of the universe only dreamed of by earlier generations, humanity faces threats on all sides.
Can You Save It?
Climate change threatens to destroy life as we know it. Religious fundamentalism breeds terror around the globe. Diseases, once eradicated in the developed world through vaccination, have returned due to antivaxxer movements. Totalitarian, nationalist governments rise as the Masses succumb to fear of the other. The world stands on the brink of destruction, and it is up to the agents and operatives of the Technocratic Union to save it…or be its ultimate destruction.
Technocracy Reloaded peels back the curtain and examines the role of the Technocracy in Mage 20th Anniversary Edition. The various Future Fates presented in Mage 20 are examined and this book introduces a few of its own. This book provides a detailed look at life within the Technocracy, expanded information on the Conventions, a wealth of equipment, Adjustments, and Procedures, a breakdown of the various shadow conspiracies and factions within the Technocratic Union, and tips for running your own Technocracy Chronicle.

Mythical Denizens Backer PDF links sent out!

Hello Scion Backers!
RichT here:
I just finished sending out the BackerKit messages containing links for the Mythical Denizens (formerly the Scion Bestiary) Backer PDF to all backers whose reward tier included them!
If you think you should have received a link message, but didn't, please first check to be sure the Reward Tier you pledged to contains a physical copy of Scion: Origin or Scion: Hero 2e. Then, please check your message threads from BackerKit, and your spam folders before messaging me, but if you do have problems, we'll figure it out. Note: other than this informational Update, the links for this are not coming from Kickstarter, but via BackerKit.
You should also check the Digital Downloads section of your BackerKit page for the links.
Likewise, if you get your link(s) but for some reason the download isn't working, please contact DTRPG customer service before contacting me as I have no ability to engage on that aspect of getting you your reward(s). Either way, we will figure out any problems so you get your files. No worries!
As I mentioned in the message with the link, we encourage all backers to go to the errata form to send notes on any technical mistakes you might find:
We'll be gathering up comments for at least two weeks, and then after that we'll need to go through them and make any changes the devs think are needed. Any tweaks we make to the PDF will be automatically updated and show up in your DTRPG library. All you'll need to do is re-download the PDF. This includes things like pg XXs, bookmarks, etc. that we can't do until we're sure that things like the page locations won't change with the errata.
Once we get all the errata into the book and update the PDF files for the final PDF that will go on sale for the general public, we'll also put together the files for the physical book PoD version on DTRPG.
Thanks again for your patience as we worked to create this backer reward for Scion:2e!
