Summary
- From the Onyx Path catalog:
- Does the mouse in the maze think:
- “Today I shall try a different route. Go left instead of right. Chew through a wall. Refuse to run.”?
Does it? I think not.
I think the mouse runs because it only knows the maze. It follows the corridors like a charge following a circuit.
It knows all routes lead to the same end.
You know it, too. You left, but you’ll come back. This is your end”.
- The Demon Storyteller’s Guide includes:
- Expanded information on angels, including a look at how Incarnations apply to them
- A extensive look at the spy genre and its permutations and how they apply to Demon
- Three “setting hacks,” including an examination of Demon in the Bronze Age
