I wish this game had caught on more. 

It begins play in modern london where supernatural things from a mythic erra long forgoten begin to turn up in meuseums or, even more often, wake up one morning and realize that they are mythic beings reincarnated in human souls. 

First among them are dragons.  These are the Fireborn.  Human in flesh, dragon in soul.  They dream of the mighty wyrms they were in the mythic erra and thus tap into that power in the new mythic age that is awakening today. 

I have neither the time nor the skill to run it.  Does anyone?

I've never even heard of it. It sounds an interesting idea though.

Exactly!!! 

Only in Scion the son of Zeus doesn't play 1-2 hours out of every game session as Zeus in mythic grease. 

In Fireborn, you start the game in modern London, exploring the arcane mysteries awakening around you.  Then you have a flashback to the mythic era and spend 2 hours RPing a great dragon before returning too London with new mastery of partial draconic shapechanging or spellcraft with which too complete the days adventure.  You learned it because you remembered who you were!

If you can make head or tail out of that game's rules, sir, you've twice my brainpower.

Muse

Well... 

What percentage qualifies as heads or tails? 

I didn't have too much trouble... 

Of course, I was playing, not GMing. 

Good to see you, Jefe.

I fled in terror when I beheld the resolution rules for chains of actions.  It's a neat idea, but I just can't make it work in my head.
