The City is struggling. Costs are rising, the sick are dying, and crime seems to go not just unpunished, but rewarded .
But the people don't revolt. They don't rise up and fight. They seem to
accept it all, just trying to survive, with barely any awareness that
things weren't always this way. But you're different. You're a
Rift - a human being with a Mythos inside you that give you access to
supernatural abilities. It lets you see beyond the mist, the thin veil
of distraction and confusion that seems to blanket the city in ignorance
and submission. You won't let the City's lies cloud your vision and
your judgment. You're here to give the City back to the people, and
nothing will stop you from liberating the metropolis you grew up in.
This isn't just for you - it's for everyone . <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/430878/a-city-in-despair" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/430878/a-city-in-despair</a> Hi, I'm Phoenix! I've been a GM for about 15 years, and I would love to
find some players who are interested in creating a new group, playing
once a week at most, for a long-term tabletop game in City of Mist! If you're not familiar with the game... It’s
a modern urban fantasy game where you play as a Rift—someone living an
ordinary life (a job, a home, a family), but touched by something
extraordinary: a Mythos. Your Mythos could be anything from a
historical, religious, or mythological figure to a pop culture icon to a
video game protagonist
to a pure concept (like Luck or Time).
With it, you gain supernatural powers and the ability to see through the
Mist—an unseen force that hides the truth of the city from most people.
But your Mythos has its own agenda. Maybe it coincides with yours,
maybe not. Will you follow its search for answers, or your own? Your
character’s journey balances personal mystery, supernatural powers, and
everyday struggles. The city’s full of strange happenings, shifting
loyalties, and hidden truths. Your powers might help reveal them… or make
you a bigger target. You'll
have total freedom to create your characters. So if you've always
wanted Sora's keyblade, the winged shoes of Hermes, or even just to
embody the concept of True Love, you can have that while using those
abilities to take down a corrupt government and free the people from its tyranny. I myself recently made Rifts of the Naiad (a freshwater spirit) and of Moiraine Sedai from The Wheel of Time! If this story doesn't quite fit for you, I'm open to ideas! City of Mist has a great way to
decide what kind of game you want to play as part of character creation,
so if you like the idea of the game but not this story, let's
find one that'll work for you! Don't worry if you don't have the player's handbook. I've got you! If
you're at all interested or have any questions, leave a reply or send
me a message and I'll be happy to talk! The game will be on Monday
nights at 8pm EST and we'll use Discord for voice and video. First session is a free session zero! Come take a stab at corruption and free this City! All
games will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $40 USD per
month per player via Venmo. Roll20 is not responsible for any payment
transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements.
