Do You Believe in Balloonists?

Full Script

Lorion

Notes

The character for the Storm Catcher is the Balloonist, but this is optional if you donât like using the Fabled. The Theme On their maiden voyage an adventerous inventor with their brand-new hot air balloon get caught in a strange storm. Colorful flashes of light surround the balloonist. A rift in reality appears and there is no way out. The balloon is inexorably drawn into the rift. When the balloonist regains consciousness, they find themselves in a time long past. A wide variety of cults, religious sects, zealots and unbelievers engage in a philosophical battle for the sovereignty of interpretation regarding the world order. And evil doesn't stand still either and interferes. Soon after the Balloonist's appearance, rumors of a stranded magic work are spreading in the area â a miracle? The first religious communities begin to worship the balloonist as a divine being. But there are also doubters who vehemently deny the existence of a balloonist. Who might be right? Do you believe in Balloonists? Or â maybe â the few conspiracy theorists could be right and there is no divine being at all? Thanks to Hans from Funtails and Nogzi from the german Community Server for helping me thinking through this script!
