When Things Really Started Going Wrong: The World of Bring Me the Head
Four factions. Two cabals. One 600-pound head.
In 2003, the universe got rewritten and the Comte de Saint-Germain — arguably the most important human to ever exist, the Once and Future Eschaton of the Invisible Clergy — got his brain scrambled. Now the race is on to retrieve the huge stone religious bust in which some of his memories are locked up.
That head was dug up and stuck in a museum in Québec, but now there are at least two different groups looking to steal it, another looking to steal it from whoever steals it first, and a fourth that would rather the head stay right where it is. Can the players steal it? Defend it? Steal it back again? It’s all up to them.

What is Unknown Armies?
Unknown Armies is a horror game set in an alternate version of our world where magick is real. The world is caught in a power struggle between members of the Invisible Clergy — a group of beings so dedicated to certain attributes that they become archetypes of them.
In this RPG, the gamemaster weaves mysteries based on player ideas. Players choose objectives and obsessions for their characters, and the GM uses these choices to drive the plot. The GM also plays the character's adversaries, allies, and other people who inhabit this world of cosmic horror.
