Be Not Afraid

Players: 13
Genre: Angelic politics
In
the year 20XX, as the End Times began – as the Earth stood on the verge of
Armageddon – the angelic host fell from Heaven. In its entirety.
The
angels did not know why this had happened, or how. They knew only that in one
dreadful moment they had been cut off from the Divine Presence, that they had
lost all knowledge and understanding of God’s true nature, and that they had
been sent screaming into the universe. Now they call themselves the Forsaken.
It is not a name that they coined, but they have made it their own, for there
is much bitter truth in it.
They
were fortunate, or perhaps favoured. They did not fall so far as Hell; they
found themselves drifting through the reaches of space.
Now
they have gathered in a temporary settlement on the moon. They are confused,
angry, and riven by controversies – concerning God, concerning mankind,
concerning the structure of their own society. So it is that the leaders of the
host, the chiefs of the nine great angelic choirs, have decided to come
together for a Synod. There they will make a law for the Forsaken, and
determine the future of their people.
Guests
have been invited to the Synod. Human heroes will be present, persons of miraculous
power and impeccable Davidic ancestry, seeking to be anointed Messiah – and to
obtain the angels’ help for their desperate crusades on Earth. And the True
Fallen of the Pit will send their own ambassadors, to see for themselves what
their long-lost brethren have become, and to decide whether the Last War might
be averted.
In
this dark age, when even the highest and holiest have been abandoned, it seems
impossible not to fear…
