Conviction is the [[http://users.ox.ac.uk/~rpgsoc/|Oxford University Roleplaying Game Society]] society game for Michaelmas and Hilary terms, 2022/2023. Players will play members of the congregation of [[Bexgate St. Renagi's|Bexgate St. Renagi's Church]] when it is discovered that for once it is possible to say whatever you like inside the church without incurring the wrath of either Heaven or [[the Commission]], as though God isn't listening. How will your faith, and your neighbours, stand up when there is nobody to force you to toe the line? What dark thoughts and criticisms that the Commission would never otherwise allow might come to light?

Conviction will be running on Tuesday evenings during term time. For more details on the schedule, see [[when and where]].
