Cult of the Deep

Cultists from hidden factions struggle for control of the cult while performing rituals and confronting mythical monsters. Each player has a secret role with a different victory condition, alongside a character ability and a one-use sigil power. On each turn, players roll dice and commit them to rituals, attacks, healing, or aiding other cultists. Completing rituals grants temporary or permanent effects. Fallen cultists become wraiths rather than leaving the game, continuing to play by altering the dice of living players.
