Well, no, more like a heavily armed group of Purity angels turning a unicorn into guacamole. Creatures like Moe's version of unicorns are one of the main reasons the Purity Crusade got started -- with good reason. Things just got out of hand later.

Just like the canonical Cherub of the Wind/Djinn of Theft.

While the idea of requiring a greater service from someone who is more celestially potent makes sense, the bonus in question is potentially much too large (a Lilim of the Blade could theoretically get a Geas/12 in this way). Suggested change: "If a Lilim of Laurence attempts to Geas someone with the intent of making him help the cause of Hell she may accept up to three levels of Risk on the Resonance roll (thereby decreasing the TN by 1-3). If successful the Lilim adds the level of Risk to the level of the Geas. Anything more than a Geas/6 bleeds over into a second Geas with a level equal to the difference." > Shedim (Restricted): A Shedite of the Blade may possess > objects that weigh > no more than his Forces in pounds, and for one Essence, > instill the object > with unholy power, giving it a deadly edge with Power > equal to the Shedite's Corporeal Forces. IOW, Shedim of the Blade can become Living Artifacts at will.

AAAAAIIIIIIEEEEEEE! *Ahem* I mean, there are some game balance issues with this. The ability to create an Intervention on demand? No way would I allow it. All of the Distinctions look good. =====

I thought running the Revelations series would be best way to introduce both my players and myself to the system. Has anyone else had success/fun/disaster running the Revelations games? I'd appreciate anyone with the time to reply and give me the heads up :) Also anyone with the rules for the Essence Battery!!!
