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.

PREMISE

You wake up to the smell of smoke.


In the year 2008, a virus swept North America. Ever vigilant for a pandemic, citizens boarded up their windows, stockpiled their canned goods, and turned their neighbors in to the CDC. Short wave radios fell off the shelves, evacuation routes were prepared. Gas masks and specialty filtration systems were distributed. Pills were available for those showing early symptoms. Pills that did not work. That were later replaced with cyanide as their active ingredient. For those who were brave enough to put their fingers near a loved one's mouth. The United States, Canada, Mexico, the virus swept down into South America and festered in the heat of the jungle. In some places it burned out. Superstition ruled and saved lives. But nothing stopped the virus.

You wake up to the crackle of dead airwaves.


Three months after the first diagnosed case of Currere Excessum was recorded, NATO approved Great Britain's use of nuclear force against the United States. It was assumed that all organic material would be reduced to ash under the impact. It was assumed that the Quarantine of the Americas would be temporary, at best. Any who survived the blast would be given the highest in humanitarian attention and medical care. The only American emissaries who knew of the plan lay incinerated in Washington. The Quarantine continued. The Americas lay abandoned. Empty.

Welcome to the City of Sin ( original supernatural game ) [03 Jan 2009|07:53pm]
The supernatural occupants of the world have always been very careful not to draw attention to themselves, not to expose themselves to humans. That is not to say that they haven't played, haven't hunted and killed - oh, they have. They've just been very careful. They do say don't bite the hand which feeds right?

But then that was before humans ruined the world - until their hatred and greed sucked it dry and left it a carcass of its former glory. They've left it a ruined, used up shell and some of the supernaturals have decided it is the perfect time to begin to emerge slowly from the darkness.

Two hundred years later and the world is becoming the supernaturals playground. While they have not yet emerged from the shadows it is beginning. The world is changing and it is beginning with The City of Sin also known as Las Vegas.

What we are looking for;
» Dedicated, creative, self-motivated players who are willing to push boundaries.
» Due to the nature of CoS we would like to see some strong characters. Characters who will force others to take action.
» At CoS your hand will not be held through plot and it is expected of you to push your character forward regarding plot.
» Players who enjoy a dark setting and like to push limitations and themselves.
