100AD

It has been nearly a hundred years since Jesus walked the Earth, a hundred years since God took offense at the man who was to become known as his son-. He was furious when he discovered he was a fallen angel, pretending to be human. An Angel who had transplanted memories into a family and a villiage of people so he would have a backstory. An Angel who was doing what he wanted, that went against the rules and regulations that Heaven functioned with.

A hundred years since Saetan took delight in God's fury and started a war between Heaven and Hell.

2010
Today, the war is still waging between Heaven and Hell. It has esculated in fury and has left not one Angel or Demon untouched by it. The only people who remain unaware of the war being faught around them are the Humans of Earth.

Except that is about to change.

Saetan, has cast his eyes onto the Human Race as a way to win the war against God and Heaven. A way to end this once and for all but God won't allow that to happen. Instead he sends his own people to Earth to go against the ones Saetan sent, ones to get the Humans to help him.

With the war spilling over to Earth and the Humans caught in the crossfire of the war, the question is what will happen now? Will they accept that Heaven and Hell are real? Will they participate in the war? If so which side? Will they stand united against Heaven and Hell or will they be split into sides of who to support?

Only time will tell.

"Immortals are what you wanted," said Thor in a low, quiet voice. "Immortals are what you got. It is a little hard on us. You wanted us to be for ever, so we are for ever. Then you forget about us. But we are still for ever. Now at last, many are dead, many are dying," he then added in a quiet voice, "but it takes a special effort."

-- Douglas Adams

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.
