The Faithful Witch

You live in a world that has fallen into darkness. It exists in agony, awaiting the return of a God that no longer answers its calls. Most have lost faith - but not you, not you. You make your way through the barren landscape, hoping to help those in need. You have a list of settlements, shrunken and ailing, that could use your aid. Though most settlements have lost all belief in a deity, they are desperate for a witch or a healer and will welcome you for as long as you wish to stay. And so you travel. You help where you can. You study your craft. You do what you must do. And above all, you pray, and you pray, and you pray. ------ The Faithful Witch is a solo journaling TTRPG that uses a ten-sided die and a deck of standard playing cards or tarot cards. It is about doing good for a post-apocalyptic world while faithfully serving an absent God. It was made for the Village Witch Jam .
