Join the chaos!
When Divinity Fades - Forum Ars Magica Estimated Members Requested: 1 Political intrigue, arcane research, faeries and demons running amok. The secret web holding mythic Europe together, the divine aura holding the magic, faeries, and demons at bay has vanished as the church has divided and Fredrick II makes war on the Pope. Where will things end up? The answer may be up to you!
Game Description:
The year is 1239. Following the second excommunication of Frederick II by Pope Gregory, the divine aura has disappeared from the world. The essence of this situation has not been shared with any who would not recognize it already for what it is, and of course everyone has a different take on what it means. The Pope and his allies see it as a sign of divine disapproval of Fredrick II's herecy. Fredrick and his allies see it as God's disapproval of the growing secularism of the church. Other less well known factions have their own understanding of what it means, or indeed even if it meens anything (some Jewish mystics seem to be of the opinion that God simply periodically abandoned his people in the past and has now done so to all his people). Of course within the Order of Hermes other questions are likely to be brought to the fore. |
