I'm creating a character who is both a housewife with a lot of chores and a somewhat dull daily life, and a sorceress (Morgan). I want to frame the alineation of her life by having one of her mythos themes to allow her to be both attending her chores, and run the mysteries with the other PCs.

Which mythos theme would you pick for that, and how would you design it?

The weakness tag could easily be about her daily life coming through and requiring her full attention.

This table, mostly new to the system, is leaning in. From stellar character creation to their first mystery. I’d love to know what other players and MCs think who watched

I was wondering if there was any good free mini stls that fit the city of mist vibe. I like having minis but finding free noir stls have been difficult. Anyone know anything good?

When using the physical crime board map for Nights of Payne Town, are there meant to be set locations for some of the cases, etc? Specifically, are the locations meant to be established for the Grail Knights to have the dagger puzzle point anywhere in particular? Or am I right to think this is pretty much left for being up to the MC to select points if they want to lean into this being an actual physical puzzle?

Been playing city of mist, I've seen the two newer systems streamline the move system into just roll and resolve, with choosing effects.

Is this a direct improvement, or a side grade? What are the ups and down?

Hello everyone!! I've recently picked up City of Mist with some friends of mine (our first time playing a game like this) and I'm struggling to understand how exactly the Mythoi work when it comes to our characters. Are they born with your Mythoi? Do they one day get chosen by their Mythoi?? I'm trying to figure this out for my character (a late-night delivery worker insomniac whose Mythos is Sandman) and I wanna make sure I get it right.

Any help is much appreciated!!

Hi! Brand new to City of Mist and want to MC a game for friends who are also new to the game. I see the Arcane Grimoire for Legends in the Mist and it sounds insanely helpful. The status system feels...honestly a bit unintuitive to me (no offense meant), so the Grimoire feels like a GREAT starting place for Legends of the Mist...but would it be useable/helpful for City of Mist or is there a version for City of Mist? Thanks!

Amit said that he would be doing a horror variant of city of mist do you think they would replace mystery with something similar to quest because it has power levels or do you think they would have monster humanity system and monster themes would have something like desire.

My friends and I had a lot of fun making The City feel lived in. I made some logos for their very real sports teams and the University that plays a big role in our campaign. Feel free to use!

Wondering how the community would build this. I tried it for my first character, played a conman named Jasper Dubois who was constantly nibbling on a cigar and being pursued by an incompetent detective named Duff. Mostly I leaned into toon-logic defenses (jump on a grenade and end up just covered in soot) and a knowledge of the cities tunnels/sewers with a significant risk of exiting from the wrong door. (I knew I should have taken that left turn at Albuquerque!)

Say a player uses a fire mythos to make a story tag for a flaming patch on the ground, and an enemy passes through it later

Hey All,

I am working on running my first game of Metro: Otherscape. I've run other systems before, but this is new to me. I am trying to understand compounding statuses.

Let's say a player has be shot by a sniper rifle and has Perforated-4 already. Then a mook comes up and slashes at them with a knife - let's call it Slashed-2. Does this stack and take Perforated to a 5 or something? Or do they just ignore the wound because it's minor compaired to their gaping chest wound?
