Martin Luther background

Martin Luther

Martin Luther appears in a society dominated by the Catholic Church, his devout faith centered on the idea of salvation.

Martin Luther is born into a world dominated by the Catholic Church. He vows to become a monk after a terrifying thunderstorm, but soon becomes doubtful about the Church's ability to offer salvation. His views solidify after discovering corruption in Rome and finding solace in the Bible. He turns on the Church, criticizing its practice of selling Indulgences and developing a new system of faith that prioritizes individual freedom. His ideas spread rapidly with the help of the printing press, leading to a legend that inspires revolution across Europe and ultimately overthrows the Church's 1000-year dominance.
