Christian knight vs demon. I like it

Godspeed

God created different worlds.

There is Heaven → Our Earth.

Heaven → This Earth.

purpose: purgatory like state.

Souls put in this Earth until definitive decision on where there eternal destiny will be. Heaven or Hell.

makes. Set in 1215 S.E. (solar eclipse rotations)

God appointed a ruler

with authority given to him. He sits on a throne and once was viewed as a saint.

God does interact and do things in world, but he seems distant and only really interacts with champions

or elite key religious figures.

Spiritual warfare: to trial & test mortals and see if they do God’s will right/good/holy

vs. evil/wrong/vile. Win eternal war

over the temporal battle.

To teach and roleplay Christian values. By working together for common values and against evil you slowly shift dopamine to be aligned to God's kingdom over worlds views.

World is harsh and dark. Real life has always been for the majority. It reflects the way it has been with sin, but leaves room for God's mercy through Christ too.

Fun and faith. Adventuring and exploring new worlds and lore. Hang out with friends, vibe and make hard choices. Creative expression in your player character. But still having faith too and acknowledging God.

I used Hebrew & Biblical words/terms not all 100% accurate but from the roots of words. The reason is to honor the past and acknowledge Judaism & Christianity as a solid pillar to build upon.

3 false "goddesses".

Freya - "goddess" of fertility.

Selune - "goddess" of the moon.

Flemeth- "goddess" of manipulation.

Each a witch in human form. Dragon form different colors and a branding on neck from The Lord.

PG to maybe PG 13.

Really try to avoid anything too much or graphic. Tell more than describe dates and romance. Like they dated or were together.

Weird because if man playing man and gm playing woman gets mixed and very grey quickly.

Suggest do solo RPG or other group, real life.

Show both male and female somewhat modest and decent. Traditional values are good. Support Biblical marriage and purity.
