Defy the Gods

A queer sword & sorcery adventure-romance

Three adventurers rush to confront a towering goddess in a temple.

Enter a sun-baked world ruled by jealous gods and tyrants who want to destroy you. A single sword stroke or kiss can change everything.

    • fierce warrior
    • chaotic sorcerer
    • flirtatious trickster
    • animal-raised wildling
    • vessel of supernatural power
    • revenant escaped from the Underworld
  • Explore ancient, trackless cedar forests and wine-dark seas, home to gigantic creatures and the watchful ruins of lost Atlantis.
  • Win hearts, then spend them to tempt or help each other.
  • Powered by the Apocalypse, in the mold of Thirsty Sword Lesbians and Apocalypse Keys.
  • Burn brightly and hold fast to each other's hearts as you spiral upward toward your most glorious, monstrous self.
