 | Think of any long-gone deity from mythology. Now imagine that they aren't truly gone but instead that their essence lives on...is reincarnated inside of that guy who sits next to you on the bus every day. Or Maureen from Accounting. Or maybe even inside of you.
The old deities once existed, once walked the Earth, and mortals trembled at their names. Long ago, they each slowly faded out, their existence only remembered as fables and tales. During this decline, one deity gathered up and called upon his or her last reserves of power and influence to create a reprieve, of sorts, for them all. They would find their essence--their souls if you will--not dissipated amongst the matter of the Universe but instead reborn inside a mortal body. The gods would be mortal, yes, their power would be greatly diminished, yes, and they might not even remember what they once were, but they would at least exist. |

| the colony: a post-apocalypse rpg |
[Mar. 2nd, 2011|06:34 pm] |
 | Over a year has passed since the end of the world, when a mutated strain of swine flu wiped out almost all of humanity in a matter of months. One small group of survivors has settled in Grants Pass Oregon looking to rebuild their lives, but surviving the flu was the easy part.
The modern world as they knew it has passed and a new dark age is rising from its ashes. Slave traders, breeding camps and marauders are all around them. People are no longer fighting for survival, they’re fighting for control. Whoever wins out will redefine civilization forever. The Grants Pass Group must join the fray or risk annihilation. The end of the world didn’t kill them, but rebuilding it just might.
The Colony has been running for over a year, but we would love to get some fresh faces
and have some amazing plotlines waiting to be filled. We'd love to have you!
