Ascension Address: Feeling Divine

Dear Brethren,

It is with humility and gratitude that I accept the burden of becoming spiritual leader to our flock. I take this responsibility with grave importance, and will do my best to uphold the ancient tradition of sacrifice and devotion that has been settled upon my shoulders. Bless you, and bless all our people.

Upon consideration, though, Christianity is a bit silly, and I got a deck of tarot cards for Michaelmas so we’re going to try that instead.

Repeal all Dynastic Rules. Replace “Pope” with “High Arcanist” and “Cardinal” with “Reader” throughout the Ruleset.

Players

The following players were active throughout the Dynasty: Aname, Brendan*, Josh*, Kevan*, quirck*
