Geist: The Sin-Eaters/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Dallas, 1963. President John F. Kennedy probably didn’t think this would be his last ride — but, at the very least, it was certainly a sweet last ride. The limousine, a Lincoln Continental, was tricked out for the time. Plush carpets? Golden thread in the lap pillows? Flood lights? Hydraulic seat? Yes to all. Ironically, the car also came with a removable bulletproof bubble-top, but hindsight is 20-20, right?

    • Incidentally, the bubble-top wasn't bulletproof - it was for inclement weather.
  • I Am Not Shazam: Unlike in other New World of Darkness gamelines, where the main name for the game's supernatural player characters is the term before the colon, the player characters in this game are actually called Sin-Eaters. Geists are the ghostlike beings that bring the person back from the dead by merging with them, but the new merged geist/human entity is still referred to as a Sin-Eater.
  • Lawful Neutral: As embodiments and enforcers of the laws of the dead, the Keberoi are this alignment.
