As you awaken to the very reality you had sought to prevent, the Angels move, claiming hosts even as the Demons do. Yet in their twisted obedience of His will they have chosen children as their hosts to carry on their war against Creation and the Demons; and there is no punishment this time.

In a world where evil begets good, and good begets evil, you must once again question faith as you are forced to choose what is right for what is good; the only thing you have to loose is salvation.

What has gone before: It is a time of turmoil in the Kobold Caves. King Torg, uniter of the clans of Thrud, Meep and Phang, has spontaneously combusted. The Priests of Vor (the Angry Red God) have ordered you to seek out his long lost heir as penance for...well, probably for being in sight when they were looking for pigeons. Don't worry, though. Prince Torg is probably just lost in the basement of Tabriz's new split-level vacation tower.

No Experience Required! Based on a true story! No one will be admitted during the climactic bowling-for-infants scene! (Did we mention that this game is "Darkly Humorous"?)

If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire Shadowrun Alpha.
