Revision as of 18:50, 27 November 2005
This came up in a TT game last night.. we all know the basics of the immaculate faith, and have a fair idea of the catechisms the immaculates will teach. But for your average Joe, what do they know of the Usurpation? For that matter, what do historical texts call the Usurpation? It's unlikely they will call it 'the Usurpation', given the associations tied with that word. For that matter, how much does your average peasant know about the anathema? Compared with your average dragon-blood, or an immaculate? What is common knowledge and belief? or, to give an example: Let us say your party comes across a room, marked with blasphemous iconography depicting anathema heroes, emblazoned with the symbols of the anathema, and with a blood-stained altar in the centre of the room. What would run through their mind? Does anyone have any ideas towards a baseline of knowledge? - Molikai

Your common man even without having to be a believer in the Immaculate Teachings have more then enough old legends and tales to have a good idea about things. The Anathema are horrible demons who once ruled the world but were overthrown by the DragonBlood who now rule on the Blessed Isle and who hunt them whenever they show their faces now. The Anathema do typical evil things. They sell their souls for power, trade in tasty babies with demons, sacrifices, murder, rape, etc etc. -BogMod
