[QUOTE="Ion, post: 2979464, member: 16028"] The first to walk the world were Demons. Powers of evil who sculpted empires, fought wars and ruled with a sulphur fist for times untold. Of the chaos came forth [i]Eidos[/i], the mother of humanity; In her womb grew the first two souls. From the birth of her children, humanity spread like a wild fire, struggling for it's own niche in the chaotic world. The souls of humanity tainted the Demons, snatched at their power and pushed them from the world. However, it was not only the Demons who were tainted; the essence of chaos echoes in the flesh and in the blood. The influence of Demons drove humanity from it's true form and it's mutations gave form to all the creatures that have walked the earth since. When the Demons left the world, [i]Eidos [/i]was forced out as well, taking with her all the creatures of myth and legend that were too corrupt to remain. The departure of [i]Eidos [/i]and the Demons gave rise to a great duality. There is “humanity” as it is known today with it's cars, skyscrapers and cell phones; There is also the otherworld. Dangerous times are upon us. The dark tendrils of chaos are reaching further back into our world than they used to. Demons long banished from earth are finding new ways to make their presence known. Humanity is not without hope; a few souls wake one morning knowing they are the [i]Chosen of Eidos[/i] and that the fate of the world may rest in their hands. This is a D20 Modern game starting at 1st level. (Stats are 28 point buy, and HD are max at 1st level) I'm leaning away from all that FX stuff in the core book, but if / when it does eventually come up, I'd like to use Ryan Nock's [url=http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=5531]Elements of Magic, Mythic Earth[/url] system. Is anybody interested? [/QUOTE]
