Messiah's Army

Lore & Background

The composition of these forces varies by alignment. In Law paths, they often integrate with God's Army to enforce divine order under the new Messiah. In Chaos paths, they may reject divine law entirely, forming a wild coalition of demons seeking freedom from celestial control. Regardless of ideology, their common thread is the belief that the Nahobino possesses the power to save or elevate existence beyond its current broken state.

Reader's Guide

The ideology of the Messiah's Army is rooted in the necessity of guidance during cosmic reset events. Their primary goal is to ensure humanity and demons survive the Conception under the direction of their chosen leader.

Leadership rests solely with the Nahobino, though advisors like Metatron or Lucifer may influence strategy depending on alignment. Key members often include high-ranking angels or demon kings who have sworn fealty personally rather than by doctrine.

Their role in the central conflict is to enforce the Messiah's vision of the new world order. Whether that means strict divine law or chaotic freedom, they act as the military and political instrument of the savior's will against opposing factions.
