IC: Changeling the Dreaming in Portland, OR

I'm thinking of running a C20 game that would be set in modern day Portland, OR. A small city that is a haven for artists and outcasts that is also undergoing a population boom, housing crunch, and gentrifying to no end...all of which is pushing out the very artists and creatives that have made the city so attractive to Changelings in the first place.

The drama and adventures this game will focus on are drawn from several conflicts presented in Changeling: The Dreaming. Namely the tension inherent in balancing your Mortal and Fae lives and obligations. The game will also draw on the following conflicts: Unseelie vs Seelie Courts. Nightmares vs Dreams. Grumps vs Wilder vs Childlings. Nobles vs Commoners. Mists vs Bedlam.

The tone of the game will vary. We will draw from the original, sometimes nightmare-like Grimm's Fairy Tales and from the sillier side of children's daydreams. This is part of the Nightmares vs Dreams conflict mentioned above. We will tend toward a balanced approach that dips into both silliness and horror from time to time.

Anyone interested?

I'm always interested in a good Changeling game; while not completely sold on what you want to tweak, I'm intrigued by it.

I am assuming the TV show Grimm is also going to be a flavor of this game?

Not really, no. I’ve only seen maybe a half or one and a half episodes of Grimm.

On second thought, I'm sure mostly RAW will be fine.
