In Nomine is a modern roleplaying game in which the players take the part of celestial beings -- angels and demons -- as they struggle for control of humanity and themselves. The celestials, powerful though they may be, are merely pawns in a much larger game being played by their Superiors, the Archangels and Demon Princes.

In Nomine places atmosphere above rules mechanics, and is designed for a Game Master and players who want to explore personalities and motivations. Each Choir of Angels and Band of Demons has its own distinct personality, and its own part to play in the Celestial Symphony, as they seek to bring out the best and worst in mankind.
