City of Mist RPG :: Online Learn to Play Game (test)

In the shadows of shiny skyscrapers and derelict residential blocks, ancient stories and urban legends assume physical form, seeping into the City through Rifts in mortal form. But the Mist, a mystical veil known only to a select few, prevents the unwitting denizens of the City from ever acknowledging the miracles they witness daily, hiding their true nature from one another. Distracted by their everyday hopes and fears, the people on the streets remain oblivious to the clash of mythical forces that drive and control the very life of the City.

What is City of Mist?
City of Mist is a role-playing game of film noir investigation and super-powered action. It is set in a modern metropolis rife with crime, conspiracies, and mysteries. The protagonists are Rifts, ordinary people who became the living embodiment of a legend, their Mythos. While your Rifts may seek to strike a balance between the mysterious nature of their Mythos and their mortal aspirations, the powers within them always threaten to tear their lives apart. They have unwittingly become a part of a secret world of clashing stories, and soon other legends will come looking for them, with demands. The City of Mist game system focuses on cinematic action, drama, and investigation and it emphasizes narrative role playing.
