Summary[]
From the White Wolf catalog:
- Awake, Aries
- The seals of Armageddon are sundered, and the damned have shaken off their chains. While the lords of the Abyss marshal their forces and rekindle ancient ambitions, they are unaware that darker forces wait in remote parts of the world. The Earthbound have slumbered for centuries, waiting for their oppertunity to enslave mankind, and the demons are the key. Caught up in the intrigues of a forgotten age, will the legions of the Abyss re-ignite the fires of rebellion or consume the Earth in flames.
- Or Be Forever Fallen!
- The Demon Storytellers Companion pulls back the veil of secrets on the Earthbound and the reasons for their relentless campaign to enslave the fallen. Expanded information on political factions, storytelling tips on interacting with greater demons and an overview of the events that will shape the course of the game make this an invaluable Storyteller resource.

Memorable Quotes[]
"Here alone I in books form'd of metals/ Have written the secrets of wisdom/ The secrets of dark contemplation/ By fightings and conflicts dire,/ With terrible monsters Sin-bred:/ Which the bosoms of all inhabit;"
—William Blake, The Book of Urizen
"Lo! 'tis a gala night/ Within the lonesome latter years!/ An angel throng, bewinged, bedight/ In veils, and drowned in tears,/ Sit in a theatre, to see/ A play of hopes and fears,/ While the orchestra breathes fitfully/ The music of the spheres."
—Edgar Allen[sic] Poe, The Conqueror Worm
