It’s Complicated [Promethean: The Created]

by

The votes are – you folks want the complex stuff first. You got it. Well, first, some context. A Refinement is a practical philosophy, a pattern of behavior and ethos that informs a Promethean’s approach to the Pilgrimage. But one Refinement isn’t going to lead you to the New Dawn – that would be a gross … Read more

Sunday’s Eternal Choice [Promethean: The Created]

It’s Sunday, and so you, faithful readers, are again faced with a decision regarding what aspect of Promethean you want to hear about come Tuesday morning.
