Follow the Modern Path to a walk on the magical side!
Arcana of the Modern World explores the different ways to incorporate the use of magic in a modern-style RPG genre. Building on the foundations of the Modern Path: Heroes of the Modern World, this book introduces a new base class to the system; the Arcana Hero. To compliment this new hero class, there are new feats, traits, talents, trainings, & difficulties; along with new magical Archetypes to customize the spell caster that you want to play! GM’s and players have the option of using three different spell casting systems. One of these is the new Spellcrafter magic system; a sleek and modern approach to the classic spells we are all familiar with.
If your modern journey takes a turn toward the magical, this book can help you take the right steps!
• New Base Class: Arcana Hero
• 23 New Feats
• 7 New Traits
• Many New Training Abilities (Called Illuminations for the Arcana Hero)
• Many New Talents (Called Traditions for the Arcana Hero)
• 13 New Difficulties
• 4 New Archetypes
• The New Spellcrafter Magic System With 5 New Unique Archetypes
• Modern Spells
• Modern Magic Items
• Modern Factions That Add Flavor To Any Campaign
Also includes is a free Hero Lab’s dataset that can be found in the Hero Lab’s “Find Updates” section.
It can be found at RPNow and the Pazio Store
We hope everyone enjoys the new book.
Hero Lab notes:
I uploaded the dataset last night and you can find it in the "Find Updates".
I am sure there a few bugs, and there are few things I wasn't able to get in yet, (spell apps, and digital spellbook are a few).
BTW - You will the Advanced Player's guide dataset for the Occultist and Witch archetypes, but it will work without it, (just some abilities will not appear).
Please let me know what bugs you find and we will do our best to fix them.
Just want to say thank you for the support and feed back after the first day. We are glad eveyone seems to like the new book.

I really dig the concept of the series ... I think my only quibble is the design of the books themselves. I guess as a graphic designer, I like to see something with a bit more design it. Otherwise, I really like the rules and such :)
Thank you! As to the design of the books, none of us are artists, so we're doing the best we can...we'd like to step it up a notch, but being that we're starting out in business, we don't have the money it takes to hire a graphics guy/gal. But we appreciate the feedback and we're glad you're digging the rules!
