Wraith: The Oblivion
Wraith: The Oblivion is a tabletop role-playing game designed by Mark Rein-Hagen. It is set in the afterlife of White Wolf Publishing's World of Darkness setting, in which the players take on characters who are recently dead and are now ghosts. Wraith: The Oblivion features a depiction of the afterlife and strong
emotional themes, but was the least commercially popular of the World of Darkness games. Both its first edition released in 1994 and second edition in 1997 were the product of White Wolf Publishing. White Wolf discontinued their production of the game line in 1999, leaving some planned material unpublished. In 2018 a
20th Anniversary Edition was released by Onyx Path Publishing. Following the game's cancellation in 1999, White Wolf revisited some of Wraith's themes in their role-playing miniseries Orpheus. Their 2009 release, Geist: The Sin-Eaters, worked as something of a spiritual successor to Wraith: the Oblivion. In 2011,
online role-playing game store DriveThruRPG.com began offering the Wraith: the Oblivion books in a print on demand format through the DriveThruRPG website, making all books available for purchase once again.
