You are called to exorcize a possessed soul, and what you’ve long feared is unveiled—this is just the tip of a far more sinister scheme. An ancient demon is pulling the strings, and if you fail, countless lives hang in the balance, and the course of history will be stained by demonic influence.
In The Exorcist's Codex, your primary enemies are the Archdemons—ancient beings thought to have been banished ages ago but who, over the last millennia, have silently returned to reclaim the mortal realm and its inhabitants. With the aid of their followers, the cultists, the Archdemons steadily expand their influence and corruption, infiltrating every aspect of modern civilization. They will use every trick at their disposal to grow their power, and it is your task to stop them—or at least hold the demonic resurgence at bay.
The Exorcist’s Codex is a game of high-stakes spiritual warfare set in the 1890s. Players take on the roles of exorcists, demonologists, spiritual mediums, and more, navigating a world where rituals, holy artifacts, lore and faith are your greatest weapons. You’ll be tasked with uncovering dark schemes, finding lost relics, and confronting powerful demons. Each scenario tests your wit, preparation, and spiritual strength. Success demands careful planning, gathering the correct tools and components, and preparing complex rituals—all while grappling with moral dilemmas that could shape the fate of entire nations. In The Exorcist’s Codex, you aren’t just fighting demons—you’re uncovering and wielding the wisdom of millennia to defeat them.

Enter the Demon's Realm (Art by Mohammad Yousefi) - The Demon Realms range from vast, pulsating swamps filled with fleshy, organic growths, to dim, planetary worlds where the sun is faint, casting only minimal light.

VTT Support
The Exorcist's Codex will offer free access to character sheets and rules on Virtual Tabletop (VTT) platforms as soon as the books are ready for delivery! To reach as many players as possible, our dedicated team is working to make this available on both Roll20, Foundry, and Alchemy!
While The Exorcist's Codex is primarily designed as a Theater of the Mind experience, we understand that many prefer the accessibility and tools provided by VTT platforms. We're exploring the best way to provide full VTT integration for The Exorcist's Codex.
