There is a convenience store I stop at which has a self help / religious book rack. On it, there is a copy of "The Action Bible", and, given it's cover, I assume this is the DMG for OPs campaign.

Jesus was a STR main

I love how there's a random cute girl in the top left, no idea who the hell she's supposed to be, but ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป.

Probably Mary Magnalin. That is pretty funny though

Hmm it might be his mom Mary. She's j got a virginal look.

There's also a Manga Bible, which is a pretty rad artistic interpretation as well. :D

I mean, I feel like making Jesus a samurai is as authentic to history as making him a blond white dude.

Also, wandering the countryside, helping out the peasants and tweaking the nose of the establishment, gathering a crew of like-minded friends/followers, and culminating in an act of self-sacrifice which results in the protagonist's willing death? I can easily see how someone could imagine, "what if Jesus, but ronin?".

Shit. Im gonna end up buying one or both of these at some point...
