Vanished Lands

Vanished Lands is a role playing game set far in the future after the day of vanishing when people all across the planet just disappeared, leaving fear, distruction, and despair in their place. An unknown amount of years later, the world has changed and pockets of humanity still exists. Pockets of humanity in the North American west have begun to explore their now harsh changed world and discover each other once.
But in a world where technology only works in the hands of the skilled, where strange magical mists grant those who study it strange and wonderous powers but, some say, at the cost of their soul, where strange inhuman beings some call demons hide in human guises corrupt and destroy whatever they can find, where entire groups of men have been lost to insanity and gone feral, where no dead lays still for long before they disolve into mist, can humanity survive?
Will you be a Post Man, dedicated to connecting the civilizations of humanity together and forging and finding the paths through the deserts, jungles, and magical mists that seperate humanity?
Will you be a Libarian from the great city of Alexandretta, dedicated to reclaiming the information of the lost ages of man or inventing anew the knowledge once?
Will you be a cowboy from Oakland, one of the few that still wield a gun with skill and go where their will or wind beckons or a Knight of the Barony of the North sworn to protect humanity and honor?
Will you be a holy man of the Church, wielding mystical forces against the demons who roam the land, or a Mist User, dabbling in harnessing the powers of Mist Magic to fight off the monsters that prey upon travelers and villages alike?
Will you adventure in the Vanished Lands?
