You are a member of a new-age cult, run by two charismatic leaders. They have invited you, and several of your rivals, to an exclusive event where you must prove your worthiness to become their new Left Hand. Only one will be chosen.

Can you navigate the toxic environment of manipulation, constant scrutiny, and bitter rivalries to be the chosen one? What inner mysteries of the cult can you discover? And what happened to the last Left Hand, whose place you are vying for?

Notes:
- This has nothing to do with Lovecraftian mythos. The intention is for it to be dark and intense, exploring the manipulative tactics of real-world cults.
- Two players will be cast as the cult leaders. This will come with a bit of extra reading, but also extra knowledge/power/scope to make up aspects of the cult. The cult leaders will spend a significant part of the LARP interviewing candidates.

Content warnings:
Intense emotions, seriously unhealthy relationships (potentially one-sided and/or involving infidelity), gaslighting and manipulation, verbal/emotional abuse, financial and emotional exploitation, drugs, murder, suicide, religion

Three wise men came to Bethlem Asylum, following a holy star.

Three wise men came to Bethlem Asylum, in search of the new Messiah.

Tower of Temptation is a hack of Dread about the followers of a just, but forgotten god.

We will use block pulling game (such as Jenga)

In this game gods derive not only their power but their identities from those who have faith in them. A god who is worshiped by many is a powerful god. A god who is believed to represent war is a war god. As you perform deeds in your god’s name, you will have the option of resisting temptation and keeping belief in your god pure, or giving in to sin to accomplish your goals, thus corrupting your god through others’ perception of them.

You will seek to restore your god to glory by converting others to your cause while balancing the temptation of power with the core identity of your god. We will create our chosen setting and religion on the day.
