About the adventure
You are in the middle of a 500 mile trek across the Wasteland when your caravan is hit by a dust storm. In the midst of the storm, your engine stalls and the sun is blotted out. In that howling darkness, monsters pounce upon your loved ones tearing them apart. Their screams are drowned out by the roaring winds. These are the Angels. Up ahead, is the town of Salvation. You were almost there when you were caught by the storm. If you get into the last remaining car you may just make it, but what then? Who awaits you? What will they ask in exchange for your shelter? Based upon a short story, The Angels of Salvation is a game of graphic violence and horror set in what was the American Midwest. Mature apocalyptic themes run throughout this story

About me
Bay Area progressive who has been running for 25 years and playing for even longer. Since I came across Apocalypse World in the 2010's I've become adept at running games Powered by the Apocalypse including Monsterhearts, Monster of the Week, Masks, Apocalypse Keys, and Thirsty Sword Lesbians. I use Roll 20 as my game table of choice and host calls on my Discord server.

What Michael Garcia brings to the table
I make use of the virtual table to present and feature a world of collaborative play. I fully intend the game to have a beginning, a middle, and a satisfying conclusion. This will not be a story that suddenly stops, but have a clear arch that we will all enjoy. Apocalypse World hinges on major player and GM buy-in, with powerful and deadly PCs that can and should do be the heroes of their story. Safety Mechanics, including Lines and Veils will be incorporated into the game. This is to ensure we understand our boundaries and can all have an fun together.
