Pardoners
Your sins cry to me from the depths of your Shadow. Yield to me, and I will grant you absolution and healing. If you resist, I will still aid you. It's just going to hurt a lot more.
Puppeteers
Hiya, bunky. Guess what? You're a passenger in your own body right now, so sit back and enjoy the ride. I've been watching you for a while, and it's pathetic. So I think it's time that this dead man showed you how to live. Hope your credit cards aren't maxed out, 'cause we're gonna need 'em.
It's Getting Crowded in Here!
The Puppeteers: renegades who challenge Charon's Law every time they practice their powers of possession. The Pardoners: confessors and healers of the Dead, but they harbor a terrible secret. Both groups work toward what they see as the ultimate good for the Underworld -- but would any other wraith agree if he knew what these Guilds are hiding?

The first Guildbook to contain two Guilds under one cover, Puppeteers and Pardoners includes everything -- new Arcanos Arts, Merits, Flaws, Artifacts, histories, and more -- that you need to play a fully realized member of either of these Guilds.
