Six books were released under the Year of the Lotus imprint. These were:
World of DarknessEdit
- World of Darkness: Demon Hunter X, focusing on the Shih and Strike Force Zero, the monster hunting organizations of Asia.
- World of Darkness: Hong Kong for Vampire: The Masquerade; a citybook covering Hong Kong; in spite of its designation as a Vampire book, it has extensive material for every class of supernatural creature.
Vampire: The MasqueradeEdit
- Kindred of the East Rulebook, the Asian setting for Vampire: The Masquerade. The sourcebook launched the Kindred of the East line, which focused on the Kuei-jin.
Werewolf: The ApocalypseEdit
- Hengeyokai: Shapeshifters of the East, which covered the way that shapeshifters in Asia operated. Unlike Vampire's Kuei-jin, the Hengeyokai did not end up with their own game line.
