"The words 'I am' are potent words; be careful what you hitch them to. The thing you're claiming has a way of reaching back and claiming you." -A.L. Kitselman
Summoner: the Transcendence
Welcome to my little World of Darkness fan project, inspired by the Shin Megami Tensei series of games and stories. I claim no right or authority over any product of either source, or any other sources sampled in this strictly fan-based work. Do not sue me, as I can barely pay rent as it is.
Throughout this area, we'll explore a Storytelling Adventure of Self-Discovery and Deception. Over time, I will develop this page into an outright splatbook of sorts, based on the framework of the wonderful White Wolf titles, which I will gladly sell out and tell you to buy. Here goes...
