Warhammer FRP Manual - Book of Salvation (Hardcover)

On your knees! Bow before the power of the gods!
This world is truly grim and dangerous. The vile ratmen plot and conspire. Hordes of Chaos are approaching from the north. A friendly neighbor may turn out to be a disgusting mutant, and witch hunters roam the country, burning anyone suspected of being servants of the Destructive Powers at the stake. In the face of widespread horror and suffering, mortals have only one choice – to place themselves under the protection of the gods. However, despite their great power, these divine beings are not unwavering defenders of morality. They are more incomprehensible and inexplicable forces, sometimes as dangerous as the creatures from which mortals seek protection. The gods must be appeased, bribed with gifts, and repeatedly honored to gain their attention and favor. The Book of Salvation details the religions of the Empire, the role of faith in the existence of this great nation, and the functions it serves in a complex society. This extensive supplement includes:

• A detailed history of religion in the Empire, filled with fascinating details that can serve as seeds for adventures.
• A complete description of the cult of each deity, including its structure, commandments, key dignitaries, and more.
• A cross-sectional analysis of various ways of expressing faith in the Old World – from folk superstitions to fanatical sects presenting extreme visions of spirituality.
• A description of other deities worshiped in the Old World, from Khaine of the Bloody Hands to Händrich, the god of trade, from the green-skinned gods to the gods of Chaos.
• The most important holidays and festivals in the Old World, as well as the complete Empire Calendar.
• Information about the lives of priests, their learning, service, and cult hierarchy, as well as descriptions of temple knights, monks, and pilgrims.
• New spells of simple and common magic, including strong resolution and swearing.
• Expanded spell lists for priests of the nine main deities, as well as spells for lesser gods such as Gunndred and Händrich.
• New rituals, relics, and holy artifacts, including the Pauper's Chest and the Jade Amulet.
• New professions, including crusader and temple guardian.
• And much more
