Re: Who's next?
Well, most of the living "minor Superiors" have already been done; of the ones in canon, all but Christopher and Furfur have a full writeup.

Re: Who's next?
Really? I have to look again.
When you say 'write up' I am thinking of a full book as opposed to a page or two. I was thinking more along the lines of taking everything written up about a Superior and putting it all in one book, or one section, as opposed to looking up bits and pieces in several books. Although I really like the idea of places, cities and such. It would make it so much easier planning. But, then again, that is a part of the fun of the game... hm...I find myself in a bit of a quandry... |

The minor Archangels Litheroy and Zadkiel (yay!) each got their own PDF. The minor Princes Alaemon, Fleurity and Mammon were each featured in Superiors 4.

I totally forgot about the Superiors series. Darn it... But Alaemon, Fleurity, Mammon, Litheroy and Zadkiel are considered minor? I actually didn't realize that. What separates a minor/major Superior? I am fuzzy now on the distinction. |

Re: Who's next?
Major Superiors are those featured in the core rules, any other superiors are considered "minor". Minor superiors have less political power or don't move in quite as many circles and may not have as many servitors as the major superiors. Before the Great Depression, Mammon was a Major Superior, but acts against him forced him into the minor leagues.

* Fleurity is minor because he's only been Prince for 20 years or so. He laid a lot of groundwork as the Demon of Drugs, but he hasn't had time to build a huge organization or claim extensive Tethers. (Christopher is minor for much the same reason; his Archangelic status is only about 30 years old.) *Litheroy is minor because he lacks political heft. Much of Heaven is reluctant to work with him because he insists on revealing everything and putting all plans in the open. * Alaemon is minor for a parallel reason to Litheroy -- by nature of his Word, the Prince of Secrets is reluctant to directly work with anyone, and thus lacks the influence he might otherwise have. (It doesn't help that some of the older Princes preferred Gennubath, the original Secrets lord.) * Zadkiel, though an older Archangel in human terms, is minor because she spreads herself thin. Her people try to be everywhere, helping everyone, with the result that her organization isn't as concentrated as it might be.

Re: Who's next?
And Furfur would be a Minor Superior because A) he's pretty young and potentially self-destructive, and B) the players might actually foil him, actually.

Anyway, to address the concern - I have a backup of my old In Nomine Web site on my home PC. Had I known that there was still interest in the content, I would have put it up somewhere else before Geocities closed down. I'll post it all up somewhere and provide the link here for your convenience. Thanks, ;) Manny p.s. I haven't heard from many of you in years. I hope you've been well. |

Re: Who's next?
Thank you!
There aren't as many IN fans as there used to be, but we who are left are a bit more passionate about the game. When one is passionate about a game, one tends to collect as many add-ons as possible for it, and not care whether they're "canonical"...
