[UA] UA and Nobilis

[TM]

I'm not terribly familiar with Nobilis, though I am shortly to begin playing
a game of it. Having said that, I think you could use the Invisible Clergy
as imperators selected by humanity. Their agents - the Nobles - would be
quite different from the Avatars, and often opposed to them. The Power of
Prey might work for the Savage, for example. The trouble is that the Powers
subservient to the different archetypes might necessarily be rather
abstract. The Power of Shelter for the Mother, perhaps. That would move the
tenor of the game in a certain direction if you were playing the Nobilis end
of things.

The House of Renunciation would, I suggest, be a strange adjunct to the
sphere of the Nobles, with no-one exactly sure how it fits in.

Of course, if you are adding Nobles to UA, then you've just got even more
weird stuff for PCs to get confused about. Which is good.
