Aberrant: Church of Michael Archangel

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

In their own minds, the members of The Church of Michael Archangel are heroes and martyrs. While the media surrounding them is tempted, deceived and misguided, and the masses are lured toward oblivion, the Michaelites stand firm against the nova menace and wield their faith like a sword.

Thou shalt not worship the idols set before thee by the media.

The Church of Michael Archangel hates and resents novas, claiming that they detract from the glory of God and eclipse the good deeds of baselines. How do they survive in a world where novas are the center of a media phenomenon? How do they spread their message? What tactics do they use to combat the "nova plague" they see beguiling the eyes of the masses? This book takes a look at the movement, its leaders, and its secret weapon, and allows you to include the Michaelites in your own Aberrant series.

Hidden Lore

Release: Originally published October 16, 2000. Unusual for an Aberrant product, few dates if any are described. This makes it suitable for use at any point, although purists may wish to attempt to definitively place it somewhere on the timeline. Given the release of Worldwide: Phase II two weeks prior, a date of 2015 is probably most appropriate.

Cover: The cover appears to be made of ancient weathered paper of some sort, featuring an illustration of relgious iconography. God is holding a book — presumably the Bible — and its holy rays are burning all the novas who stand before him. Reginald Thomasson is credited for the cover with Jeff Holt. It's not mentiond who did what portions, but this appears to be Thomasson's sole work for White Wolf.

This is 24 pages of purely in-world description. There is no stats for anything and everything is written as if it was a reprint of in-world material. It's an interesting mix that could be useful in game. My biggest complaint is that it's oddly sympath [...]

An excellent view on the fanatical position of religions within the game of Aberrant. Shows what could happen if the game was real. An excellent resource for both players and Storytellers alike. [...]

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
