Reality, as we know it, is a lie. An Illusion created to keep humanity at bay and prevent out Awakening. Behind its facade, something vaster and darker awaits. The True Reality, where Heaven and Hell fight to replace a vanished god that may be dead. Humans are pulled into that struggle as the Illusion crumbles, weakened by Time and lost faith. More and more people gain the ability to see beyond the Illusion and start disbelieving old truths. The laws of nature prove to be weaker than what we once thought. Magic is a reality. And nothing really what it seems to be.

Kult is a contemporary fiction universe, set in the world of large, dark, industrial cities. It is a world where human wickedness is mingled with terrors from other parts of a true, unseen reality. Under the surface, primitive passions still held at bay by the morality of past civilizations grow and fester until they erupt in sick perversions. Occult teachings can be used to establish openings into different worlds, and tap power from the unknown. Bet few if any human know anything about the powers they conjure up. Sooner or later, they are all consumed by demons they cannot control.
