Harmony, Virginia. It's a small town riddled with historical landmarks and local color. Harmony seems pretty much perfect from the outside, but its idyllic facade is shattered when the chief of police is murdered. Just about everyone in town has a reason to want him dead. What's yours? |

"Can we ever hope to understand the force that shapes the soul? To fight evil, one must know evil; one must journey back through time and find that fork in the road, where heroes turn one way and villains turn another." God is tired. Tired of war.Of death.Of his children, his creations, fighting. Murdering each other for the sake of peace. Mostly though he tired of being searched for day in and out. He is tired of everything. Sitting on the edges of the universe, the highest angel came up with an idea. One good day, some time off, that's all he wants. So why can't his children be extended the same courtesy? He see's no reason why they can't. All them, from every world, one good day. "People fall out of the world sometimes but they always leave traces.
Little things we can't quite account for. Faces in photographs.
Luggage. Half-eaten meals. Rings. Nothing is ever forgotten, not
completely. And if something can be remembered it can come back" Creating a new world takes energy, time, and power that he simply doesn't want to use. Instead the Highest Being decides to do something he's never done before: restart the universe. Its simple really. Everyone gets a second chance. He gets some time off.Everyone wins right? Wrong. Restarting the universe also seemed to have restarted time. Memories are wiped. Loved ones are no longer dead. Roads that were walked down are now travelled. The question that remains however isn't what will happen now. No, the real question: What will you do with a second chance? |

Pax Letale: a modern myth game |

PAX LETALE: GODS REBORN
In Southern California, there recently opened a new luxury apartment building. Impeccably designed, impossibly convenient, ideally located, Pax Letale is the sort of residential Shangri La where Southern Californians spend all manner of favors and years trying to secure a spot. But Pax doesn't have a waiting list, nor can a place there be bought or sold. The people who find their way to Pax Letale belong there.
Every tenant of Pax is a reincarnated deity whose worshipers are by and large long dead. Once very real, these gods began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. Reborn as mortals, their essences remain, waiting to be awakened. Somehow, sometimes one by one, sometimes in groups or pairs, these creatures of destiny have discovered Pax, and have not been able to resist its pull.
For at Pax Letale, the awakening has begun. As these gods rediscover themselves and each other, the seemingly invisible but ubiquitous management tracks each of them quite closely, and the very building itself seems to have an agenda of its own. And as the gods made humans in their own image - or humans made them in theirs - so will the the behavior of the people of Pax turn as dark as their myths. Blood, strife, sex, petty plots, torture - even murder will wind their ways into Pax Letale.
A lovely place. A peculiar place. A dangerous place.
Available Tenants:Enki is the Babylonian god of water, crafts, intelligence and creation. Twin of and best friend of Ereshkigal, goddess of the Underworld, he is often seen as a positive foil to his brother Enlil, utilizing his magic and cunning for the good of others; he brings aid to deities and humans alike, serving as a rare masculine nuturer in a chaotic and often oppressively patriarchal pantheon. He will likely have connections to Tiamat, Ereshkigal, and other Sumero-Babylonian deities. Brighid is the Celtic goddess of the forge, inspiration, compassion and creativity, and a patron goddess of artists, craftsmen, and other creative types. In her mortal life, she may have connections to her parents, her siblings, or any of the Celtic pantheon. Masauwu is a Hopi deity sometimes called the Skeleton Man, Keeper of Fire, Spirit of Death, and the Master of the Fourth (present) World. He is depicted as a dark-skinned man wearing a mask; sometimes the creature beneath this mask is described as handsome, sometimes as a disfigured monster. Connections to Native American deities and gods and goddesses of death or enlightenment are likely. ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTSDon't see a tenant that interests you? Other deities and pantheons are welcome - pick one of the active pantheons in the game, or talk to a mod if there's one you don't see, and make your modern god as you see him/her/it.Pax Letale has re-opened under new management.
