The Dee Sanctionis an award-winning tabletop role-playing game about serving Queen and country in the late Tudor period. While kingdoms vie for power and the Church splinters under the pressure of reform, folklorish creatures emerge from enforced hiding seeking revenge against those who imprisoned them.

As magic and creatures of the supernatural proliferate throughout the land,Queen Elizabethpassed anAct Against Conjurations, Enchantments and Witchcraftsin 1563, making the punishment for acts of magic severe. In1564, JohnDeeand FrancisWalsinghamconvinced the Queen to pass an amendment to the Act The Dee Sanction permitting the practice of magic in defence of the realm.

You are anAgent of Dee, not out of choice, but out of some twisted sense of self-preservation. Somewhere between conscription and penance, you work for Walsingham and Dee to make amends, with a faint hope that you can use your talents to earn your pardon and absolution.

You can see the light at the end of the tunnel. If only you can outrun the shadows of your past and the horrors of the present
