  • Torg: the Cyberpapacy
    The Near Now … Later today, early tomorrow, sometime next week, the world began to end. The Possibility Raiders had come to steal Earth’s energy, its Possibili- ties. At the start of the invasion, France experienced the Collapse, a period during which techonology ceased to function. Then the Raider’s plan went wrong and technology returned, with a vengeance. The Cyberpa- pacy was born. A false Pope, Jean Malraux I, has brought the gift of cyberware to a waiting nation. He promisesSample glories unimaginable, file security in an uncer- tain world, spiritual power in a darkening age. All you must do is serve God. Serving God is easy, for Jean Malraux is His Vicar. Jean Malraux shall tell you what to do. Always. The Cyberpapacy has everything under control. Except the streets. Those are yours.
