WitchCraft (Tabletop Game)	comment	CJ Carella's WitchCraft is an Urban Fantasy tabletop RPG based on the Unisystem rules. The setting is a world like our own, but with an extensive Masquerade to mask the fact that just about every supernatural being and mythological figure exists (or has existed).The players take the part of the Gifted, humans who secretly wield the power of magic, psychic abilities, divine miracles, or other supernatural talents. Set against the Gifted are a wide array of inhuman threats, Dark Covenants (evil Gifted who abuse their powers), the shadowy Combine (an ancient conspiracy that manipulates world events to oppress humanity), and the cults of the Mad Gods (who seek nothing less than the dissolution of Reality itself). For all of recorded history, the Gifted have kept their existence hidden, but now an approaching Reckoning threatens the world, and new Gifted are being born in record numbers. The time for hiding in the shadows is coming to an end.While similar in many ways to the World of Darkness games, Witchcraft differs in having less emphasis on personal horror, a more integrated setting between the various supernatural factions, more of a Lovecraftian flavor (albeit with heroes who can often fight back against the sanity-blasting horrors), and more focus on human protagonists rather than monstrous ones.A Spin-Off, Armageddon, takes place in 2017, where the Reckoning is in full swing, and the Church of Revelations is spearheading the takeover of the Earth on behalf of a near-omnipotent Mad God: Leviathan. This time, player characters include not only the Gifted, but angels, the forces of pagan gods, and even demons.

Similarly, the Sentinels consider Psychic Powers another form of Creator-given gift alongside Divine Inspiration, but don't tolerate magic or necromancy. And the Wicce say that all of the above are being stupid, because it's all just different ways of channeling Essence.

After being reborn, most Iscariots still aren't very nice people, though they're now fighting to free humanity from the Combine. The Pariahs and the Mockers, having horrific powers and Dark And Troubled Pasts across the board, are not a particularly reassuring presence for their allies, to the point that other Gifted occasionally mistake them for monsters themselves. Yet both factions fight to protect humanity. Demons are evil through and through, but angels aren't exactly a prize, either. Even as they fight against the forces of Hell, many Gifted who encounter the angels perceive them as having an "attitude problem".

Parts of the country have gone Mad Max, with motorcycle gangs of army deserters and Believers roaming the roads, while other areas have rebelled and declared their own petty nations. The U.S. government simply doesn't have the time or resources to deal with any of this - they're too busy fighting a war for humanity's survival.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_2f41cac1	comment	Our Werebeasts Are Different: Werewolves are the most common type of Ferals (at least in the United States), but almost every mammalian predator has a Feral equivalent. Ferals can either be born that way, or acquire the Feral curse by being sufficiently injured by a Feral, killing a Feral, or even committing crimes against nature so grave that the local animal spirits curse them. While Ferals (of all types) are the most common "werebeasts", there are also Skin-Changers, the term for magicians who have mastered the right type of magic to assume Feral forms.

One Covenant, the Mockers, is centered around humans who survive the experience and choose to fight the Mad Gods with their horrible new powers. These powers are fueled by Taint, and the more Taint you gain, the more deformed and insane you become.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_324e2fcf	type	Power Levels
WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_324e2fcf	comment	Power Levels: The game defines five levels of starting power for PCs: Pre-Heroic: This tier is occupied by slightly-better-than-average normal people, with a sprinkling of weak and inexperienced Gifted. Generally, expect a horror-movie feel at this level, as the PCs are going to be heavily outgunned by any supernatural adversaries they face. Heroic: This is the default power level. Though they are far from helpless, Gifted at this level are generally journeyman-ish in strength, while supernaturals will be relatively new or inexperienced members of their kind. The absolute best Mundanes top out at this level. PCs at this level can be useful operatives of their faction and proactive in dealing with supernatural threats. Legendary: These PCs are outright superheroes, beyond the capabilities of any (Mundane) human. Gifted are powerful psychics and sorcerers, while supernatural beings will be highly experienced, belong to a powerful race, or both. Many of these characters will be Really 700 Years Old. Legendary level characters are major agents in their factions, the SEAL Team 6 to the Heroic level's regular enlisted. Mythical: Most of these are supernatural beings of great age and power, ranging from Greater Seraphim to Incarnate gods. Gifted at this level are The Archmage, with centuries worth of experience and knowledge in their respective field (though there's a few "young" prodigies with really awe-inspiring inborn talent). These beings are armies unto themselves, and reshape the world wherever they act. Transcendent: This one's mentioned in passing to represent cosmic-level movers and shakers, as usually these types don't make good PC material. This tier is pretty much limited to named characters who won't appear on Earth before Armageddon, such as the High Archangels and leading deities of Old God pantheons, as well as Dark Apostle Johann Goering. To give you an idea of just how powerful one of these can be, Odin single-handedly defeats the Army of Revelations' invasion of Britain and Scandinavia.

The Templars believe that humanity is best liberated by democracy, technological advancement, universal education and secularism (they don't see religion as bad, per se, but they're wary of it as a tool of Mundane control). The Combine's objective is to keep humanity under control, which usually means a unified and authoritarian church and state, failed revolutions, technology suppressed or turned to serve those in authority, and the deaths of reformers and free-thinkers.

If they're lucky, they come to the attention of other Gifted who can teach them about their new powers (and protect them from the Mundane world), but the less fortunate end up going insane, living as fugitives, or in the hands of the Combine (who might kill them outright or just put them in a laboratory). Think it sucks having to spend years learning how to properly cast Invocations? Resent how your Necromancy allows you to see ghosts and death everywhere, or that your Second Sight reveals to you all the corruption that lurks in Mundane minds?

If you're playing in a setting where the cat's out of the bag, anger makes a decent substitute. The jury's out on whether this applies to the Divinely Inspired. Are they actually calling on the Creator's power, or does the power come solely from their faith?

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_50f5dabe	comment	Reincarnation: Human souls reincarnate on a fairly regular basis. The Old Soul quality (which allows you to access your past lives) is one of the few supernatural qualities a Mundane can take. When the Bast die, they simply reincarnate when a (usually nearby) cat gives birth to a new kitten. Though the process from being reborn to regaining their former memories can take a couple months, it's about as close to Death Is a Slap on the Wrist as you'll get in this setting. On the rare occasions when they are destroyed, True Immortals are also subject to reincarnation. Unlike regular humans, however, it takes many thousands of years for them to be reborn, to the point that most True Immortals have Past-Life Memories of only one previous life - their first incarnation in Atlantis. As such, True Immortal characters (somewhat ironically) cannot have the Old Soul quality.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_575fd5e2	comment	Dark Is Not Evil: Not only are there playable monster-heavy Covenants, they're actually nicer on average than many human ones. The House of Thanatos, for example, are an organization of Necromancers and undead who want to be truly immortal... and go about this by preserving the sanctity of the Death Realms and the living world from each other, busting up Mad God cults, and generally being a social clubhouse. The Pariahs, being mostly Disciples of the Flesh, have grotesque and nightmarish powers. But as a whole, their faction is dedicated to sheltering (and avenging) abuse victims. The Mockers, a faction of humans who survived contact with the Mad Gods without succumbing to The Corruption, must struggle to protect their sanity from the Taint they now carry. But this doesn't stop them from fighting the Mad Gods by any means necessary. Necromancy magic in this setting is just a tool for dealing with the spirit world, and it is the practitioner's intentions that make it good or evil. In principle, you can use Blood Magic by just working in an emergency room and feeding on the ambient pain, without actually doing anything evil. In practice, there's no way for that to happen, and Sadicas is strictly in an "enemies" section.

He makes a habit of visiting local Rosicrucian chapters and meeting all members, making sure no problems are neglected for too long and helping to solve any problems that they can't solve on their own. His goal? He founded the Rosicrucians, and he wants the Covenant to flourish. And since the Covenant is only the sum of its parts, he wants to assist the various parts. When reporting suspected corruption in the Inquisition (see below), it's customary to go to Vitalinus, since "If he's corrupt, we're all stuffed anyway."

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_5ecdd585	comment	Renegade Splinter Faction: Many Covenants have at least one of these. The Storm Dragons have a lot of splinter factions, as their martial art has, over the ages, had a massive number of defectors who set up their own schools of Tao-Chi Supernatural Martial Arts. To hear the Storm Dragons tell it, everything from the Shaolin Temple to the legendary Ninja themselves owes their origin to Storm Dragon renegades. The largest group of renegades (with actual ties to the Storm Dragons) are the Red Lotus Society, a Dark Covenant whom the Storm Dragons have fought for generations. The Cabal of Psyche (the "psychic" Covenant) has a growing number of members who oppose the Cabal's traditional neutrality, feeling that they should get involved in the threats facing humanity. While the malcontents haven't yet splintered into a new Covenant of their own, that day is not far away. Also with the Cabal of Psyche, it is rumored that when the Cabal began in ancient Greece, one of the founding Seers rebelled against the others to set up their own order, which even now plots against the Cabal of Psyche (and humanity in general). The Cabal's leadership deny such an organization exists, however. The Cult of Pain was formed by a group of depraved French noblemen... and a renegade Rosicrucian sorcerer. The Society of Assassins has the Alamut Sect, who have betrayed their brethren to serve the Combine.

The expected morality of the Pariahs is subverted, however - for the most part, they just want to stop the real monsters of the world from causing further suffering. An even more blatant example comes from humans who get infected by Taint from contact with the Mad Gods. One Covenant, the Mockers, is centered around humans who survive the experience and choose to fight the Mad Gods with their horrible new powers. These powers are fueled by Taint, and the more Taint you gain, the more deformed and insane you become.

Not only are the powers incompatible (no character can have both), but most monotheistic religions that believe in magic take a dim view of it, to the point that the Sentinels (the main Covenant for the Inspired) are almost an Antimagical Faction. The Knights Templar are an exception to the above, as they are one of the few organizations where magicians and the Divinely Inspired work side-by-side. Rosicrucians look down on psychics as "useless wild magic," while the Cabal of Psyche dislikes "magical" traditions and any power that they can't fit into a "scientific" psychic paradigm. Similarly, the Sentinels consider Psychic Powers another form of Creator-given gift alongside Divine Inspiration, but don't tolerate magic or necromancy. And the Wicce say that all of the above are being stupid, because it's all just different ways of channeling Essence.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_c6aec72c	comment	Healing Magic Is the Hardest: Normally, most Gifted healing powers (Healing Invocation, Mindheal, Salvage Discipline) cause the healer to feel whatever pain that they're curing, which makes the power all the more draining for the healer. Divinely Inspired healing has no such drawback, but like all Inspired powers, the Touch of Healing can never be used frivolously or selfishly. Depending on the Chronicler's point of view, even using it to heal a non-lethal wound, or an injury or disease not caused by supernatural adversaries, may smack too much of hubris to pass muster. Tao-Chi has the Chi Healing power, which has the drawback of being draining to the victim, as every Life Point regained costs them an Essence point. While Essence does regenerate, if you're a Mundane with little Essence in the first place (or even a Gifted who's currently running on fumes), there's only so much Chi Healing will be able to do for you.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_dca70c44	comment	Reasonable Authority Figure: Vitalinus, one of the surviving founders of the Rosicrucians and unofficial leader of their council of Grand Masters, is mentioned as being the most approachable of the Grand Masters by a fair bit - relaxed, friendly, and almost impossible to surprise or annoy. He makes a habit of visiting local Rosicrucian chapters and meeting all members, making sure no problems are neglected for too long and helping to solve any problems that they can't solve on their own. His goal? He founded the Rosicrucians, and he wants the Covenant to flourish. And since the Covenant is only the sum of its parts, he wants to assist the various parts. When reporting suspected corruption in the Inquisition (see below), it's customary to go to Vitalinus, since "If he's corrupt, we're all stuffed anyway." Also the Rosicrucian Inquisition. Its name brings to mind the infamous Spanish Inquisition, but it exists to root out collaboration with demons or Mad Gods and other forms of extreme evil in the Rosicrucian ranks. Since the crimes it investigates (and the associated punishment) are so serious, it exercises extreme thoroughness and care, convicting on average one wrongdoer per decade, despite taking on twenty cases or so per year (the rest are either lesser crimes or simple misunderstandings as will happen in a secret society). This extreme diligence and fairness make the Inquisition respected instead of feared within the Covenant.

If you commit an atrocity under the orders of a higher Rosicrucian, the one who gave the order gets the heat for it, not you. As for why a "good" faction would have this as a law, and just how much "heat" is involved for someone who abuses it, the argument is made that the threats facing the Rosicrucians (particularly the Mad Gods) are sometimes so dire that there is no time to gather everyone and debate a course of action, not if disaster is to be averted. As for those who abuse this trust to order pointless killings, their subordinates might get a pass, but the Rosicrucian who gave the order will not only be executed, but have their soul "unraveled". The Ruya'ha sect, another "good" faction, accepts assignments (for assassination) from their One True Imam without question or hesitation. However, it is heavily implied that the One True Imam has something of an Omniscient Morality License, and thus the targets he doles out are genuinely hurting humanity.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_f9339f97	comment	The Red Mage: Taking multiple Gifted arts (except for combining Divine Inspiration with Invocations or Necromancy) is entirely possible, though human characters generally require a teacher to learn new powers, and teachers for a Gifted art may or may not be available in your Covenant (you don't see a lot of Rosicrucian psychics, for example). The rules themselves advise that it's best to focus on one or two Gifted arts rather than try to be a Psychic Kung-Fu Wizard Necromancer whose skills are so thinly spread that you're a Master of None. In the earlier Witchcraft sourcebooks, most Covenants focused primarily on one Gifted art, with other arts being a small minority (if tolerated at all). Later sourcebooks switched this up, with new Covenants whose rank-and-file members typically wield two different Gifted arts. Examples include the Covenant of Legban (Invocations/Necromancy), the Ghost Dancers (Invocations/Second Sight), and the Society of Assassins (Invocations/Tao-Chi). The Wicce are another exception, as they specialize in Invocations, but some covens have members who are Necromancers or Seers, and these types often pick up a couple Invocations and/or the skills for Ritual Magic.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_fd4f8299	type	Well-Intentioned Extremist
WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_fd4f8299	comment	Well-Intentioned Extremist: The Sentinels, the Society of Assassins, the Mockers, and the Knights Templar all fall under this trope to varying degrees. The Sentinels protect humanity from dark forces but are too often blase about whether a supernatural being is really "evil", the Assassins exist to exterminate the people who are holding humanity back, the Mockers will do absolutely anything to hurt the Mad Gods, and the Knights Templar fight to free the world from the Combine even if it means using the Combine's own black-ops methods. Not surprisingly, all of these groups are generally loathed, feared, misunderstood, or just outright blacklisted by the other Covenants.

WitchCraft (Tabletop Game) / int_fed93e1b	comment	The Disciples of the Flesh are Gifted who had such a mangled childhood that it awoke their Gift in a way which allows them to reshape their bodies into grotesque living weapons. The expected morality of the Pariahs is subverted, however - for the most part, they just want to stop the real monsters of the world from causing further suffering.
