[QUOTE="Madfox, post: 484992, member: 1714"] My impression from the game, and I have not read it fully yet, is that it mixes badly with the other dark world games. I also got the impression that the players will NOT be playing irredemable evil. It appears that when the angels where banished they were in a hell which slowly twisted them into become even more evil. Then they are janked back into the world, but they have to live in the body of a mortal. Suddenly they are confronted with the emotions and memories of that mortal. The fallen angel would not remain untouched by this flood of emotions of a mortal being. If that mortal was at its heart a good person, the fallen angel more then likely would become a fallen demon. The intro story shows this greatly. At first the demon feels the need to destroy, but then he starts realizing he still cares about humanity, because his mortal body truly loved somebody he had once again learned to love. Of course, many of the demons that returned where not lucky enough to get back into a good person or they were so lost that even human emotions and memories could not jank them back into sanity. As for how the game treats real life Christianity. The whole story of the fallen angels is actually told by one of those fallen demons. I am sure the authors chose to do that on purpose. The fallen demon is telling the story to a Christian priest who critizise the story highlighting the fact that what the fallen demon tells is from their point of view, nothing more, nothing less. Of course, to explain inconsistencies with other Darkworld books the book also discusses something about multiple layers to the world. I found that a bit too complicated for my taste. It just says that all supernaturals are right, since in the past one object/creature could be multiple things at the same time :/ [/QUOTE]
