The State Museum of Art and Culture received a letter from an infamous phantom thief stating their intent to steal some of their most valuable artifacts this Halloween. Considering your long rivalry, you've been hired to stop them before they can make off with the best of the collection.

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.

Notes on Game:
-City of Mist is based on the Powered by the Apocalypse system, meaning that the rules are quick to pick-up and friendly for beginners.

-Characters will be generated at the table using quick-gen rules; nothing needs to be prepared beforehand, but an idea of what kind of legend/concept your character will be channeling (it can be super-specific like "Dracula", "The Headless Horseman", "Jack Skellington" or more vague, like "cyborg", "Halloween slasher flicks", or "tabletop roleplaying games") will help things go smoothly

-Only things required are a few six-sided dice and a pen/pencil
