Between - In the Lost Age when Meat comingled with Shadow the Tribe's greatest tool was The Word and Old Night was Young; the Tribe lost her greatest Heroes to the Scourge. A Beast so terrible is defies description the Tribe nearly scattered when they got word. Luckily for the Tribe and the Elders a new generation will be undertaking their Rite and claiming their Names. By taking a Name the Young become the Word and transcend the limits of Meat anchoring Shadow. The Scourge is coming. It may be behind the far hill or in the near valley but it will be Here before you know.
System- Icons an elegant, effects based superhero game that's available online. FATE's emphasis on fiction would parallel the setting's emphasis on language and naming.
Inspiracion- John Harper's The Wildlings, New Mutants' Demon Bear saga, Turok, Tengger Cavalry, Noah, The Quest for Fire
Magnum Opus- The War to End All Wars has torn the heart from European Empire. The frontiers are choked with tortured steel, scattered limbs, and unheard prayer. Even the mystical Guardians, seduced by martial glory, lie entombed in earthworks. Smelling opportunity, an entire generation of hungry American mystics flock to Europe's capital cities, eager to begin their own Great Works and plunder the shattered halls of power. Ignorant of ancient pacts, they shine new light on aged bones, recover lost knowledge and unleash horrors thought destroyed.
System- Probably the Cypher System, the {Descriptor}{Class}who{Focus} provides plenty of options while straddling the idea of magic as superpower vs. magic as resource.
