Is that better? I think referencing three terms very relevant to the setting and ones most people will likely hear if they ehard about the game, one of which partially shares name with the game, will clue most people.

Correct. Rich Africans are Ngoma, because their current plan to uplift Africa is to push as many Ngoma Mages and African Sleepers into science and bussiness.

That was about Knights of the Temple of Solomon a.k.a. Knight Templars. Which in Mage are actual Christian Mages. They were fired from technocracy for, according to them, criticising the corruption within organization. According to technocracy they were fired for the Crusades. The truth is likely both.

This is literally lore of RPG Mage: the Ascension. What did you think it was about?

Actually well written Lawful Good characters getting along is so rare :)

Daimond is a fucking monopoly that held stranglehold on everything it coudl get its hands on, I hope the company closes and also hope someone manages to salvage all distributors affected, as Roll for Combat has some really good 5e and PF2 content.

And then there is Mage, where you get kicked in the ass and fly across the mat

I don’t pressume I could listen to your songs anywhere?
