Homecoming: War of the Demigods
A multi-fandom RPG of mythology
| The History |
If the gods have ever been known as one thing, it is fickle. Fickle in favor, fickle in tastes… Fickle in love. For years beyond time may tell, the gods have moved from mortal love to mortal love, with nary a thought of the consequences, and often without a care for immortal partners. Thus, in ancient times, under the rule of the gods, it was not unknown to hear tell of strange pregnancies that gave birth to extraordinary individuals; children of gods and mortals who possessed astonishing powers and could commit amazing feats. These children were known as demigods, and stories were told, songs were sung, of their deeds. The people were slow to notice. After all, they had many songs to sing, many stories to tell, and these demigods, these great heroes, were proof of the gods’ favor. Years passed, and as the very nature of the half god was a mortal one, heroes began to die. It was not until the last demigod passed into the underworld that anyone realized that no more had been born to the world. The dalliances of the gods continued, yet those whom became pregnant mysteriously disappeared. Years, centuries, millennia have passed since those times when mankind still worshiped the gods. Humanity has evolved far past such arcane beliefs; the gods have been resigned to naught but mythology and legend. The old arts of magic are long forgotten, and instead science leads the way into a new era, an era which will change everything. For science… Science has rediscovered the oldest of myths. Science reaches beyond the mortal realm, beyond the limited scope of mankind’s own sight, and touches the eternal. And in this rush of discovery, of newfound knowledge of old truths about the gods, something else has returned as well. |

Maybe you're walking through Central Park to work. Maybe you're stepping into an elevator in your apartment building, talking to your friend on your cell phone. Maybe you're getting out of a taxi in front of a restaurant. Wherever you are in New York City, you take a single step and suddenly you're somewhere else. You're in the Fourth Kingdom, ruled by the family of Snow White. It's been two hundred years since Snow White, Cinderella, Rapunzel and their like ruled, and even though everyone in this land still believes in happily ever after, reality is much grimmer than anyone will admit. There's a Wicked Queen trying to take control, man-eating trolls crossing the border, and a thousand ways, magical and otherwise, for you to meet a grisly, unpleasant end. Will you take sides in the battle between the Whites and the Queen? Or will you do anything you can do to get home? |

| Welcome to Avalonis, where superheroes and villains walk the streets and nothing is quite what it seems. The city of Avalonis was once dubbed the superpowered capital of the world and even today the city is filled with people who can do the most extraordinary things. Some can move things with their mind, others can read them and then there are some who have no powers at all but insist on fighting for justice nonetheless. As when you have a city filled with heroes, villains will follow and now the city is host to some of the most spectacular and epic show downs the world has ever seen. Beneath the shiny exterior of the city and the side that the tourists come to see in the hope of catching a glimpse of the city's famous heroes and villains is a layer of corruption. The Irish mob and Italian mafia control parts of the city, pushing prostitution and drugs onto the streets of Avalonis. If there's something you crave then there's always a way to get it, no matter how sordid your tastes. There's a reason why the city needs heroes. Avalonis Police Department is rife with corruption. The internal struggle within the department is probably why they have yet to pay full attention to the recent disappearances of young superpowered individuals, but how long can these disappearances remain unnoticed and who knows more than they're letting on? |
