In Nomine Revisited: Usul, Angel of Chocolate.
As I recall, the major objection to this one was that I made the Angel of Chocolate a dude. Don’t yell at me; yell at Frank Herbert. He’s the guy I was ripping off, after all.

In Nomine Revisited: Tonics
Tonics
(Addiction cost: 3/level)
This type of drug is the latest thing to hit the streets: it’s going to be a while before the corporeal authorities can properly assess that it’s anything more than a particularly odd version of cocaine, though. That’s not too surprising, however, as the DEA isn’t exactly set up for the analysis of supernatural and alchemical substances. …OK, that last bit is a lie: the DEA has the largest proportion of outsiders aware of the War of any American government organization outside of the Secret Service and.or the Library of Congress. It’s just that every one of those outsiders is still trying to make up their minds about whether they should wreck their careers by talking to somebody else about all the weird stuff that they’ve been coming across (it should be amusing to see the inevitable cascade of mutual realization).

I like to revisit ‘Spin,’ every so often. Particularly when I have a vague urge to run In Nomine again. This kind of scenario is basically a master-class on how a Mercurian of Destiny is supposed to resolve complex mortal problems; and without use of that handy time-reversal feature, too. Then again, if Heaven had had access to time-reversal then there wouldn’t have been an actual War in the first place.

In Nomine Revisited: Ttthhawkawkssssthhh.
I am kind of wiped, so I’m putting up a couple of In Nomine ethereals up from the old days. One I love, and one I… do not.
This is the one I do not.

I know that this doesn’t make much sense, as written: it was based on an old concept that somebody else came up with for In Nomine. Think “Delta Green, but they’re fighting angels and demons, and it’s not quite so hopeless for Delta Green.” I had a friend asking around on it, though, so I might as well see how this works in the new system. (You can find the Project Silence stuff here.

In Nomine Revisited: The Game: Vice Division.
The Game_ Vice Division – Google Docs
The Game: Vice Division
The official name is actually the Unnatural Vice Division, which sounds surreal until you understand what the Game means by it. Basically, both angels and demons can suffer from two different kinds of dissonance. There’s Word dissonance, which comes from a betrayal of the celestial’s Superior’s overall vision; and there Band dissonance, which comes from a betrayal of the celestial’s own inherent nature. The Game’s theoretical purpose is to stamp out examples of either as being a hindrance to the War. A dissonant demon is one step away from being a Discordant demon, which is one step away from being a Renegade demon, and so forth, so the Game acts proactively.
