I went through setting up the Burrow church with Samuel recently (extremely funny and embarrassing for him that this storyline starts with getting slapped on the wrist by the entire church of england. can a man not be catholic in peace) and I got very very attached to Sam's absolute disaster of a parish council, so I wanted to try to figure out how to draw them...... I didnt mean to render them all i just got carried away.......

Basic gist is that you are charged by a "Delightful Reverend" with helping to organise a "church in the wild," with the aim of making a church with the traditional vibes of a liturgical christian church but without the christianity, one that's open to humans and devils and anyone else and can't be claimed by either group. My favourite bit of this is that you are asked to assemble a Parish Council and they all give you their advice on any decision you have to make, which MAY OR MAY NOT ACTUALLY BE HELPFUL. Despite being very Christian himself, Sam was intrigued by the idea and wanted to give it an honest try. He chose:

Percy aka The Intrepid Deacon, an alarmingly hell-curious but deeply genuine deacon friend from a different adventure where Sam worked hard to help him seek answers while keeping his soul safe. Probably the one most aligned with Sam's values and the only person here that he trusts. I love him.

The Retired Vice-Admiral, who was the Reverend's pick and Sam didn't want to overrule her on everything. HES SO NORMAL and clearly just trying to recruit for some kind of sun cult. THIS ISNT THAT KIND OF CHURCH, MAN. I love him, Sam wanted to punch him on multiple occasions

The Crimson Captain!!! Sam wanted a devil on the council but felt oddly more comfortable with one of the devils who still serves the old devil monarchy.... They feel the most like they have a Faith as he understands it so there's a strange sort of kinship there? ANYWAY this guy is the soggiest devil imaginable, clearly still haunted by his mistakes and losses in an old Hell war in every piece of feedback he gives. Like getting relationship advice from someone who's been divorced six times. I love him.

And the Delightful Reverend herself! Every time you have to make a decision and ask her opinion shes like "augh i hate making choices" thus making her THE MOST RELATABLE CHARACTER IN FALLEN LONDON, A GAME THAT IS 80% MAKING CHOICES. She's very hard to draw but I love her.

[As always, no spoilers or hints for Fallen London things in comments or reblogs please! I'm still actively playing through the game (very slowly) and prefer to discover things myself!]
