Are there any games similar to this one where the players play as gods or aspects of the universe (lust, pain, greed, etc)?
Preferably rules-lite, if such a thing exists.
I saved this one forever ago.
Never played it.
Has anyone even actually played Nobilis?

I've played the edition in OP's pic.

Storytime, however short.

I want to play this, and I get the urge every time I read Sandman or the related franchises.

Seems interesting, although incomplete.
I guess Everyone is John could fall under this category of RPGs, don't have a pdf though.
I always wanna play this, but being the only person in my group with an interest means I'd have to GM, and I have ZERO idea how to GM nobilis.

I have twice.
In theory, Nobilis can be played all straight and politics-style. In practice, the players usually just end up making it the ultimate lulz-tastic experience one can ever have. What did you expect when players choose to be the nobles of "Cats," "Oak Trees," "Explosions," and "Bishe Boys"?

It's been a long time.
Here's my character sheet though

That's a very interesting domain to be a Nobilis of. I like it.

Thanks. I think looking at it like a Vertigo comic like >>47001499 said is the way to go.

Same. It's one of the few games I'd want to play rather than GM, so I've never played it.

That's an insult, right?

And if it wasn't clear, his spirit flower is the dandelion.
I remember reading the pdf during my bustrips to work a few years back, and that shit was intense. It's a cool style of writing but there's not a lot of concrete information on stuff, which was somewhat difficult to follow at times. Just made me feel like "just fucking tell it to me straight for once instead of writing a poem"
And this is also one of two games I am feeling very daunted to attempt in GMing. I just don't know where to start.
