[QUOTE="payn, post: 8514375, member: 90374"] Sounds like the movie Pandorum. Id likely use the Alien RPG for the right cinematic horror feel or perhaps Call of Cthulhu for the sanity aspect. The Pitch: A thousand years ago there was a capitol city that encompassed all the ancestries and kin of the world. There was a cataclysmic event that forced many to flee, others to perish, and even more to suffer a fate worse than death. Now, the region around the century old ruin is desecrated and anything that dies in this area is resurrected as undead. For the last century, most kin have stuck to their own communities. Not out of sense of hostility, but a sense of superstition that co-existence is detrimental to survival. With time, the superstition of a repeat event has started to fade. A new blooming city has erected on the out skirts of the former capital. New sense of wonder exists for those who can shrug of superstition and tradition and make a new life here. Also, many a scholar (and thief) are eager to journey into the desecrated cursed lands to reclaim knowledge and treasures long lost. [/QUOTE]
