[UA] The Cult of Revelations

[Royal Minister of Stuff]

Consider having ol' Cecil kick their butts.  One of
the points of literature -and maybe one of the points
of gaming- is to develop character.  I like short
stories and quick games, personally, because they
concentrate on more exaggerated changes -sometimes
House of Renunciation-esque reversals of personality.

I'm sure you've explored the angles -how wrong is
killing people?  What makes using a bullet more "Just"
than the hard, hard process of trying to change
someone's life? How do the families and friends of
those executed feel about the homicides?  Does that
even matter, etc. etc.

But, sometimes a climax is sweeter for a wrench in the
works or a sound, but NOT HOPELESS, defeat.  Superhero
Comics practically live and die by the principle.  If
you're going to hunt someone down and splatter them,
it feels oh-so-much better if they humiliated you,
first.

PS. You don't need the Sleepers sourcebook.  I tend to
just use Cletus, Forsythe and Daoud from the main UA
book.  Of course, for some reason, Forsythe almost
always ends up getting killed off and Daoud goes nuts,
then Cletus calls in his family, but, hey, I run short
campaigns (looooong games, but short campaigns.)

As long as they have a monkey, I'm sure this mockery
won't count as a mortal sin against them.  Everyone
loves monkeys.
