Seven themed books were released during 1999, building up to the creation of the imbued. The most important of the Reckoning books released was WTO: Ends of Empire Image:Bullet-nip.png, which made Wraith: The Oblivion the first line in the Classic World of Darkness to officially come to an end. In addition, the events that closed out Wraith, most notably the Sixth Great Maelstrom, would come to play a major role in both the existing lines and the four new lines to come (Hunter, Demon, Mummy, and Orpheus). The rest of the lines (except for the Dark Ages) would follow in 2004 during the Time of Judgment.
