I facilitated another game of Molotov College recently; this time with Charlie Etheridge-Nunn's The High Priestess playbook in the mix. Our super-powered misfits attempted to avert the apocalypse where demonic forces have eradicated all life on earth!

We had Kendra (she/they) the High Priestess, Alex (she/her) the Empress and Max (they/them) the World. Phantom Wind took Kendra when she was a kid and transformed her body into a demonic shape. She found solace in Molotov College, where she met other super-powered misfits, but the Headmaster used her and her powers. Alex is a blind telepath who can "see" through other people's eyes and has the power to edit memories. The Headmaster once instructed her to use her power on herself, and she can't remember why. Max has the power to manipulate and travel through time but get tired and disoriented afterwards. They went to the future and saw the apocalypse, and suspect Kendra might have something to do with the demonic invasion.

After returning from the future, Max calls for a meeting and tells the other alumni about the apocalypse. They remember seeing a newspaper in the future referencing a sports event, which is going to take place in the coming week! The trio then decides to go to a sleazy bar to look for Kendra's demonic contact.

Kendra threatens the bartender Lucy but then disappears into the Phantom Wind, leaving Max and Alex to deal with the angry demonic bartender. Max rewinds time to do it again, only to make it worse by attracting the attention of the bouncers as well. They manage to fight off one of the demon bouncers, and Lucy has a proposal to the alumni; if they return with souls later, she can provide them the information they need. The duo leaves the bar and are confronted by the Time Knights—protectors of the linear timeline. Donning mediaeval armour and wielding assault rifles, the Time Knights shoot at Max and Alex. 

All of a sudden, the battlefield is covered with smoke and the smell of sulphur, and Kendra comes out of a portal with bits of her clothes on fire. Seeing that her friends are being attacked, she summons hell beasts to tear the Time Knights apart, and holds up her hellsword to absorb the souls of the fallen combatants.

We flashback to the day Molotov College was destroyed. Dr. M gathered the students at the college's gymnasium and asked them to demonstrate their powers. Max went back in time and brought back a live dinosaur egg, impressing Dr. M and other students. When it came to Kendra's turn to display her powers, she failed to open a hell portal on her first try. On behest of Dr. M, Kendra pushed herself beyond her limit and unleashed a fiery demon into the gymnasium, which bit off the head of Dr. M and burnt the school to the ground. The demon eventually left and most of the students survived, but Molotov College and Dr. M were no more.

Back in the present day, the three alumni go back to the demon bar in the evening. Kendra pays Lucy with the souls she has collected earlier, and the bartender directs them to a room in the back. The trio enters the room and sees none other than Dr. M. It turns out that Dr. M absorbed the demon's power on that fateful day, and made Alex edit everyone's memories about the event, including herself. Max wants to believe that there is still some good in Dr. M, but he is too far gone. Perhaps the demon has corrupted him, or maybe he's always been evil. Dr. M has planned for the demonic invasion that would bring about the apocalypse, and he is too strong for the trio to handle! In order to get the power to fight Dr M, Kendra would need to sacrifice her humanity and become a full demon herself. Max however, has another idea.

Max uses their time travel power to bring the alumni back in time, to when Dr M was still a young man. They dissuade Dr M from studying demonology, thus preventing them from merging with a demon. Our alumni have averted the apocalypse and saved the day, or so they think.

When our protagonists travel back to the present, the world is now run by angels. The society is highly structured and ordered, with individuality and creativity snuffed out. This is where we end our session.
