Heaven's Shadow

Players take the role of Shadows, modern-day assassins serving God through a secret Agency. Empowered by Faith, they track and eliminate ancient Nephilim—immortal demonic beings hidden among ordinary people. The game uses a quick D6 dice-pool system for resolving skills, combat, and supernatural espionage. Players gain advantages during extended challenges, attempt risky stunts, and can earn special combat options through exceptional successes. Careful planning builds bonus dice for an assassination attempt, while Faith allows characters to call on divine aid through Prayers. Each Nephilim follows a specific Path of Sin, granting dangerous powers tied to its chosen vice.
