    Why not have specified categories like Size (how large the Temple is) and Integrated (how (un)noticeable the Temple is to those who (don't) know what to look for)?

    Yeah, I guess that's to be expected. Kinda hard to form a concrete set of traditions when your 'civilisation' is scattered across multiple different timelines.

          Yackronin sent me an image that I can use as a cover for Oracle, so I decided to post 0.2 earlier than I was originally planning.

          0.2, now with a fancy cover and typo fixes.

            I didn't like how the dicepools worked out for Miracles, so I've changed them over to a resistance-based system. Also more example antagonists.

            Version: 0.22

              First playtest for Oracles went well. We have Oda Nobuyuki, an executive assistant for a tech company, and apprentice from a timeline where the Exarches didn't exist transported into 2019 San Francisco to try and prevent some sort of explosion in 15 days which will engulf the entire world in it's flame. Oda is able to imbue arrows with his Time of Death, allowing any location hit by the arrow to suddenly transform into a place covered in fire with arrows raining down. The executive assistant is able to intercede her daimon as a top-of-the-line laptop which allows her to rewrite the future plans and schedules of people around her. The apprentice's daimon manifests as a revolver covered in runes of High Speech, and when it is raised to attack time is stopped allowing her to spend as much time as she desires aiming her shots.

              First session was mainly focused around being time-displaced people not knowing what's going on or where they are and leaving chaos in their wake. The players ended up accumulating 30-ish beats cause of using pre-errata geist style beats, so I'll need to keep an eye on that. It's a short campaign so fast xp is the point, but still something to take notice of. As for the supernatural mechanics, they seem to be working so far, we've had some use for most of the supernatural systems though only a touch of each. Still haven't used Crusade, Pilgrimages, and Ichor yet though.

              During session 0 we noticed some things that I'll need to edit because of me updating one part of the mechanics but not noticing I didn't update the other parts so hopefully a fixed update + plus some orisons pitched by the players should be out pretty soon.

                The aforementioned update is up. Orisons now are less clunky, and Apocalyptic Successes have been added in as a mechanic.

                    Not currently. I did a playtest of it and improved it by reworking the magic systems of the game, but Mummy 2e does a lot of this better with more stories it can tell IMO.
