Knowledge is power, especially when that knowledge relates to casting spells. The colonists were on their own, the last living people… as far as they knew. Communication became erratic before ceasing completely.
After a world-wide, virulent pandemic dubbed The Fourth Horseman wiped out civilisation, survivors at Ares, the international base on Mars, listened helplessly as humanity sickened and died. If you like unique RPG experiences with lots of improv and meaningful character interactions and histories, Relics may be heaven sent. Fun fact, I collect nerdy tarot decks and have a Good Omens deck that would be perfect for a one shot in this system.

The ‘make it up as you go’ background / memory creation system could lend itself so well to difficult heartfelt moments as well as hilarity, plus any game that manages to incorporate tarot cards into he game is a winner in my book. Kitschy and stylized, this game looks like like fun. Plus the simple Tarot-card system makes gameplay simple and fast, with characters made in just minutes. The unique memory system allows you to build an ever-growing backstory as you play, making you the unreliable narrator of your own past. Players take the role of angels who have lived on earth for hundreds or thousands of years.
Relics: A Game of Angels is a roleplaying game in a world inspired by Wings of Desire, Dogma and The Prophecy. A desperate, brutal battle will be waged in the present on the secrets of the past. Their powers, long trapped in physical objects, now begin to awaken and the cold war between the two sides erupts into a arms race to control all of creation. God has gone and the Gates of Heaven have slammed shut, leaving angels and demons abandoned on the mortal world. There’s a lot happening and all of it is great. This week DriveThru RPG and DM’s Guild have angels, goblin astronauts, and punk faeries who fight fascism.
