I have GOT to start running an RPG again. . .

This may be distressing to a lot of people. But it's ALSO really cool.

Let's say that you're a homeless kid in Miami, dealing with gang warfare, starvation, and disease.

What myths would you create to give your life meaning?

And, my Ghu, wouldn't that make an AMAZING RPG setting?

ETA: And a question for those of you of a more mystical bent: what if they're right?

Or at least, if there is some sort of truth in what they have seen. I mean, I don't believe that God can lose to Satan -- but something smaller can lose to something smaller. There may be . . . things out there. And not all of them are nice.

I don't always believe that. But I don't always NOT believe it, either.

Mercedes Lackey and Rosemary Edgehill made this mythos the center of their second-to-most-recent Bedlam Bards novel, Mad Maudlin. It's not a great book in and of itself, but the Bloody Mary storyline is excellent.
