Then, when the crops failed, when the livestock died, Papa Lucy gave hope. He gave civilisation to the broken leftovers of humanity, their minds wiped blank when they stumbled after him, through the secret places and out into the Now.

In Short: The last remaining enforcer of an order of mystical lawmen battles the psychotic (but oh so charismatic) sorcerer responsible for the fall of humanity.

What's It About: Lanyard Everett–last of the Jesusmen who once protected the people of the Now–crosses the dangerous wasteland in search of a bleedthrough, an interdimensional rupture set to disgorge Before-time artifacts and riches into the land. Unbeknownst to Lanyard, a pair of powerful sorcerers–the titular Papa Lucy and the Boneman–also have their evil eyes set on those spoils, and a particularly powerful talisman that will make them unstoppable. This series opener, which received a starred review in Publisher’s Weekly, also sets the stage for the post-apocalyptic Bullets & Bleedthroughs roleplaying game.
