Nobilis: A Game of Sovereign Powers is a role-playing game by Dr. Jenna K. Moran, previously published by Pharos Press and then Hogshead Press, and now to be published by Eos Press. In Nobilis, players take on the role of Sovereign Powers, former humans who have been charged by unthinkable beings with the defense of the Earth and given dominion over a specific aspect of reality, whether it be Song, Fire, Laughter, Meaning, Pain, or Mystery. Nobilis uses a diceless bidding mechanic to simulate miraculous conflict, and is well-known for powerful player characters, but is unusual in its focus on avoiding direct combat.
The Nobilis core rulebook is currently out of print, but is scheduled to be republished in a new format by Eos Press.
