Ocean Cove  On July 27, 2001 humans found out that they weren't alone. Working, playing and living alongside of them were Others; lycans, vampires, the fair folk, creatures of myth that had been sharing their lives. Governments scrambled to calm the panic; leaders within the various supernatural communities stepped forward and, working with human governments, established a balance of power to ease the people's fears. For the first few years, it was peaceful on the surface. People and Others continued to work and live together. Small groups of humans started to arm themselves, citing that the peace was only temporary and eventually blood would be spilled. Their fears were confirmed when a newly turned lycan killed five people in one night. More people bought into the alarmist's propaganda. Hunting groups were formed, and the 'prey' became the predator. Certain breeds of lycanthropes and fey were hunted to near extinction. Those who survived the hunts and social stigmas fled to safe havens. The Cove is one of those safe havens. Located on the peninsula of Washington State it is right near the Pacific Ocean. A small collective of a three towns where humans and supernaturals live together. This community has been relatively quiet for the past ten years. However, with the discovery of lycan bodies just outside the gates of the Cove, and reports of missing humans and vampires- the fears have returned. In 2011, the hunters have become the hunted.

Forgotten Gods  |
"I know how gods begin. We start as dreams, then we walk out of the dreams into the land. We are worshipped and loved, and take power to ourselves. And then one day there's no one left to worship us. And in the end, each little god and goddess takes its last journey back into dreams... and what comes after, not even we know."
-- Neil Gaiman, Brief Lives |
Forgotten Gods follows the deities of ancient mythologies, brought to America long ago by explorers or immigrants from their homelands and eventually abandoned or lost from memory. As their worshippers have moved on to new religions, the gods' powers have waned -- for a god, at its most pure essence, is no more than an idea, and an idea is worthless if there is nobody to believe in it. Some have passed, forgotten, from the world, while others have fallen into madness. Some have simply tried to adapt, to make a life for themselves in this place without gods, getting by on what little scraps of worship and belief they can garner. Others are more radical, intent on regaining the power that was once theirs and reviving their followings.
And then there are the New Gods. Gods of cars and computers, television and radio, cities and highways, all those things that modern Americans put their faith in. They are young, at the height of their power. These newcomers are regarded dismissively by some of the old ones, who have seen so many new deities rise and fall in their time; jealously by others, who wish to reclaim the power for their own; and by all with a deep, abiding wariness.
Inspired by the world of Neil Gaiman's American Gods, this game invites players to step into the roles of deities, old and new, to create their own modern mythology. |
