Þe Goetia is part of þe Leßer
Key of Solomon, an hiſtorical
grimoire dating from þe 17
th
Century. It is amongſt þe moſt
notorious and influential books
of weſtern ceremonial magick
and derives in part from earlier
ideas from þe century before. It
was moſt famouſly tranſcribed,
tranſlated and preſented by
Aleiſter Crowley at þe beginning
of þe 21
st
Century and much of
what is found in it – demonic
ranks, þe appearance of demons,
þeir summoning and binding
– has become part of þe more
common underſtanding of what a
demon is and does.
As such, and as a ‘real’ book
of magick, Þe Goetia makes
a perfect fit for þe deadlier
end of þe Old School gaming
renaißance and, in particular,
Lamentations of þe Flame
Princeß whoſe position at
þe darker, naſtier end of
adventuring fits Þe Goetia well.
Introduction
Thoſe who conſider magick
to be real are often wary
of þe spirits and demons of
Goetia, conſidering þem to be
dangerous, hard to control and
hard to uſe.
We do not believe in ‘real
magick’ and preſent this material
in truncated and gamified for,
for uſe in your campaigns as
a different flavour of magick
from whiz-bang fireballs, magic
mißiles, or þe manifeſted miracles
of þe gods. This is a form of
magick with great riſk and
great reward, which takes place
between dungeons - not within
þem.
Unuſual Symbols
This book uses various old
English symbols for the sake of
immersion and replicating the
look and feel of old grimoires.
ſ: The long ‘s’ symbol is simply
another version of the ‘s’ and
not - as it appears - an ‘f ’. It
occurred at the beginning or
middle of words, mostly the
middle, and is often found on
gravestones. In this book it is
used in the middle of words.
1.
ß: This symbol is ‘the sharp s’,
or the ‘eszett’ in German, is the
long ‘s’ found when there is a
double ‘s’ in a word. It was used
- inconsistently - in old English
for a very long time, phased out
only much later.
Þ: This symbol, the ‘thorn’, is
pronounced as ‘th’ and appears
at the beginning of words. It
survives today as the ‘Y’ in ‘Ye’ as
in ‘Ye olde Taverne’ - though it
should still be pronounced ‘th’ as
in ‘the’.
Diſclaimer
Magick and demons aren’t real.
Nor are events that happen in
games.
If anything upſets and/or diſturbs
you, that’s your own look-out
and not our reſponsibility.
Don’t conſume media you don’t
like.
