A game of mythic demigods using Sine Nomine's Godbound, GM'd by Mister Kent

Map of the Raktine Confederacy

Pantheon[edit]

  • Chen, played by Fred. Justice-seeking warrior with a price on his head. DEATH. JOURNEYING. SWORD.

Chen is from Dulimbai and lived in a village at the border with the Patrian Empire, near Lake Nemia. When he was 8, a Patrian century rolled into the village killing, raping and burning. The only survivors were Chen and his grandfather. They fled to Raktine, but the horror of what happened festered inside Chen, begetting a strong desire for vengeance. Sixteen years later, Chen's grandfather died, but what was most surprising was that Chen found himself speaking with his ghost. Chen became a Godbound, bonding with the Words of Death, Journeying and Sword. Finally able to carry his vengeance to fruition, he started tracking the members of the Patrain century and killing them. Today, two years later, he has a few deaths under his belt, but there are still many more to go. While searching for his prey, Chen helps other unfortunate souls break the shackles of oppression or gain retribution for past sufferings.
