What happens to the old gods, once their temples have crumbled and their believers have abandoned them? Do they die, forsaken, alone? Or do they remain, still wandering the world, immortal, surviving off what little belief they can gather?

Forgotten Gods follows the lives of these old deities, brought to America long ago by explorers or immigrants from their homelands and eventually abandoned or lost from memory. As their worshippers moved on to new religions, the gods' powers 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, attempting to regain the power that was once theirs, to revive 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 older gods, 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 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.

The year is 2003, the new renaissance for the magical world has flourished after the war. It seems that everyone has forgotten about past events and have moved on. Not everyone moves on easily...As the ministry gives magical journals to every resident, people begin to wonder for what? Isn't peace already there?


As the wizardry world rebuilds so does certain things that shouldn't be re built. Lucius Malfoy hasn't moved on that easily. Even if he did vow to be good. Nothing good ever lasts, now does it? As time passes by his hunger for power rises and each passing moment is making it harder for him to achieve that goal.

Say hello to the new Dark Lord. Behind the backs of the Order of Phoenix , Lucius builds his dark army with followers who are hopeful of another apocalypse and this time, Lucius was prepared. As he found an artifact that could bring the dead back, he thinks on who to use it? And how many people.

The only problem with the artifact is, that once you are reborn to before your death, you are the opposite.... So what did this mean? If you were good before your death, now you were bad? His plans exactly.

What was once dead walks amongst the living. And with a taste for blood. Remus Lupin and many others on the wrong side. No one seems to notice for a while until they see it for them selves. Why would dead loved ones return? Who was doing all of this?

Questions begin to be asked as the ministry slowly loses control to their utopia. It seems that no one can answer the questions, not even Harry Potter. Who will stand up and fight this time? Will anyone be willing to risk their new families or loved ones for another war? Are they ready for what's planned for them..?

In the end you look for hope but never get to find it. It seems that all good that has existent, all dreams that were made, have been destroyed;piece by piece. No one is safe any more. It's a matter of time before catastrophe happens.

What if they were real?
The myths and legends.
The things that go bump in the night.
What if they were just like you?
Since the dawn of time they've been blamed for all of life's oddities. A strange noise? It must be a ghost. Pets mangled and eaten? Maybe a werewolf got them. That pale man that never ventures out in the day? A vampire, surely. Children behaving badly must be changelings, and that table had to have been forced into your path by a mischievous sprite, now giggling at your misfortune.

The list goes on. For each being, there are hundreds of tales, most pure delusion of course, though much of it based in fact.

From Nessie and Sasquatch to the Bermuda Triangle and the Land of Mu, our world is filled with the unattainable, the unexplainable... that which we call Myth, or Legend.

Yet, like the Will O' the Wisp, or the ghost breath that sends a shiver down your spine, the truth tugs softly at our conscience. Whispers in the dark of a boogeyman in the shadows, or a fairy spinning gossamer tales in the corners of your mind. They are real. And in so many ways... they are just like you. They work. They feed. They even have children. And just like humans, those children go to school.

School however, isn’t always as just classes and homework. Strange old castles often have far more lurking about them than is so readily apparent. Ancient curses have once been set loose on the school. Memory loss. Sickness. Power switching... Was it an accident? Or are more sinister plans afoot? Will it happen again? Here you just never know...

Welcome to Halcyon Halls.
We're changing the future one myth at a time.

"Come on in. The first drink's free."

The house materializes out of the fog, a haven for the weary traveler in need of a hot meal and a stiff drink. Stay as long as you like, and don't worry if your wallet's empty. Your money's no good here. What we really want from you is a story.

The House of Mystery is a pan-fandom RPG/writing prompt community based on the Vertigo comic book title of the same name. The house exists in all places and in all realities. Characters arrive at the house without knowledge of why they are there. Only the staff remain fixed within the house and can't leave. All other characters are free to come and go between their worlds as they wish. Although, it should be said that sometimes the house could grow fond of certain individuals and their stories, and these people might not be permitted to leave.

Now open! New adds every Saturday. Currently seeking characters from all fictional canons to help populate the bar.
