DIVISION X
A downloadable Campaign Toolkit
Division X is a fan-made campaign toolkit by gaa_txt for the tabletop roleplaying game CAIN made by Tom Bloom. It introduces new and optional rules for your game, expanding the scope of the system beyond the hunts the exorcists must go on. Inside you will find rules for:
- Handler Origins. Each division is trained and supervised by a handler, but their origin can be as varied as the blasphemy exorcists use to execute sins. Choose from a list of 6 Handler Candidates and gain a small but significant benefit based on their origin inside CAIN.
- Mundane Jobs. The responsibilities of an exorcist go beyond the simple execution of sins. Choose an extra kit from a list of 8 options and be ready to work a normal everyday job between hunts.
- Awareness and Fallout. A brand new mechanic to measure the collateral damage done by the exorcists or the sins they fight. Work to clean your own mess or deal with the consequences of getting too much attention.
- Off-hours. A downtime system focused on giving weight to player choice. Explore the time between each hunt and pursue your own goals.
This project is currently in development and not yet complete! Feel free to use it in your game at your own risk, but if you have feedback don't be afraid to @ me on discord or leave a comment below.

question, will you introduce methods and sugestions to change a normal campain of Cain into a Division X campain in the midle of the game? as if "as a reward, you all will go into X for a extended period for field work while the local team go back"
I'm really exited to see what this turns into, not to say it doesn't have some damn good quality work already! Great job!
"I will be watching your career with great interest..."
This is wonderful, as someone that is a fan of BitD ive been wanting a way to better flesh out CAIN and how its Exorcists exist outside the hunt and this is perfect for that.
one note that may bring other ideas, or just to help clean up the pdf, "regions" are mentioned as well as the fact that different regions can have separate awareness levels, but as far as I have read, there is no mechanical or narrative statement of what a region is, do you have plans to flesh that out? if not id recommend changing the wording around to remove it.
Thanks! And about "regions", you are right. The word was used to imply the region around the division, since with the supplement you are gonna stay stationed in one place for a campaign, but considering there isn't much more than that I will consider removing it from future versions.
oh this looks really good! i really love some of the other blades systems that arent in CAIN so im glad youve taken a stab at it
