The Team
Joe Catholic
Joe Catholic’s a college kid at The University of St. Thomas the Apostle. He’s clumsy, scrappy-yet-chivalrous, and prone to yawning through Mass—until something strange starts yanking him places he can’t explain. A restless spark drives him, hinting at a bigger game he’s only starting to glimpse. With his crew at his back, he’s stumbling into shadows that don’t play nice—ready or not.
Giovanni DeLuca
Giovanni DeLuca’s Joe’s loudmouth shadow at USTA—always ready with a jab or a shove when things get weird. He’s got no fancy tricks, just guts and a nose for trouble he can’t ignore. Something’s pulling his best pal into deep waters, and he’s diving in—clueless but all in.
Fr. Gabriel Nard, FST
Fr. Gabriel Nard is a priest of the Fraternity of Saint Thomas haunting USTA’s halls—old-school, stern, with secrets tucked in his habit. He’s got a past that whispers of bigger fights and a book that doesn’t belong in anyone’s hands. When the dark creeps in, he’s the one pointing Joe at it—whether Joe likes it or not.
Elise Moreau
Elise Moreau lurks in USTA’s library stacks—quiet, watchful, with eyes that catch more than dust motes. She’s got a knack for sensing what’s off, a flicker of something golden when trouble brews. Whatever she’s hiding, she’s tied to Joe’s mess now—stepping out when it counts.
The Villain(s)
Heinrich Abendroth
Heinrich Abendroth’s a smooth-talking phantom from the Church’s edges. He's an ex-priest with a grin that cuts too deep. He’s chasing something big, something about time and power, and he’s got Joe in his sights. Whatever he’s plotting, it’s bad news—and he’s not done yet.
