[i]Belief is the most powerful force of the cosmos.

Belief starts with the self. I [b]can[/b] do this. I [b]can't[/b] face that. Forces exist that wish to do me harm; that exist to support my success. All and none are made true by mere conviction.

Belief continues with stories and legends, and the fantasy-lies told to children to keep their wonder alive. From simple, infantile stories like Santa Claus, to historic legends like Arthurian tales, to mythical sagas that become the foundations of entire cultures: all are made real in the minds of the audience by belief and dogman. 

So, as Man grew, it was only natural that their stories and their beliefs would grow beside them; and this is how Gods were born.[/i]

And so are laid out the fundamental rules of the cosmos in Saṃsāra: A Divine Reckoning.

Saṃsāra is a Modern Urban Fantasy RP, styled after American Gods and Wicked & Divine, where conviction and belief shape reality in myriad conscious and unconscious ways. 

Players will take on the roles of Incarnations - Gods who have assumed Human form and descended from the realm of the divine to live among their worshippers and spread their stories, thereby revitalising their existences within the cosmos. These Incarnations spend a generation upon Earth before returning to their heavenly homes. 

All deities of all pantheons are on the table to be played, but they must all take human or human[i]like[/i] forms. Yes, you can play an Incarnation of Ganesha, or Sobek, or Fenrir, but no, your Incarnation will not be an Elephant, Crocodile, or Wolf respectively.

I'm looking for a reasonable group for a casual-level game, with players each posting roughly every fortnight at least. There will be a plot to pursue, but a lot of self-governed character interaction as well, with a secondary focus on how your Gods deal with their followers, and the general pitfalls of being a divine being living a mortal life. 

If  we gather good steam here, I can launch OOC this weekend. Feel free to shoot me questions!
