Description

WARNING: While this game has been written with the best intentions, this is still a Bible game and could be potentially offensive to anyone with deep connections to the source material. Many characters' personalities and motivations have been changed for the sake of the game, and some Apocrypha has been incorporated.

The game could be described as Biblical Fantasy as it takes the various miracles in the Bible as having occurred (as well as the existence of demons, God, and other such supernatural entities mentioned in the Bible). Themes vary greatly and characters ranging from pretty serious to rather silly are available. Mechanically, most players will use only 2 mechanics-combat and faith. Particular faiths provide bonuses provided you don’t violate any of your faith’s tenets. As several characters intend to spread or suppress particular faiths, it will be rather important.

Players of all faiths and traditions (or lack thereof) welcome!

Content warning: suicide, parental abuse, demonic possession, and sexual themes including prostitution, though these do not impact all characters. Minimum age 18 or with prior GM permission.
