In Nomine Revisited: Fort Kanaloa

Fort Kanaloa

There is a section of Hades that was clearly designed and laid out to be a seaport, complete with an artificial harbor and coastal fortifications.  There is, of course, no ocean in the celestial plane – at least, no ocean now – so the Port District instead looms over a barren plane of rock, stretching all the way to the metaphorical horizon.  This being Hell, any useful equipment or materials were carted off long ago; but the buildings themselves remain. And of them, Fort Kanaloa is easily the most important.

It is not a particularly well-favored building, seeing as it was clearly designed to be the primary defense of the port in case of a seaborne invasion by Heaven*.  The fort stretches for easily several miles, taking up the entirety of what was once a breakwater and is now a sheer cliff, and its dirty grey stone barely contrasts against Hades’ ever-present smog.  There are no real windows, only narrow gaps in the walls where unknown weapons presumably were once kept.

In Nomine Revisited: Secret Societies in Alpha Complex.

Secret Societies in Alpha Complex

Or, “Why Secret Societies are not the answer, either.”

Many Demon Princes have infiltrated Alpha Complex, of course. They send in their spies, who develop their own organizations inside the Principality, hoping to quietly take control through influence and corruption. Gee, I wonder what the Computer might call groups of Commie Mutant Traitors who were formally plotting in secret to bend society to their will?

That’s right: Secret Societies, just like in the original game.  And just like in the original game, Secret Societies are largely useless!  For their members, at least. Demon Princes and GMs alike will find them very useful when it comes to causing problems.
