  • Mythology was a collection of myths (a mythos, e.g., Inca mythology), considered an important feature of many cultures. A myth is a sacred narrative explaining how the world and humankind assumed their present form, although, in a very broad sense, the word can refer to any traditional story. Myths may arise as either truthful depictions or over-elaborated accounts of historical events, as allegory for or personification of natural phenomena, or as an explanation of ritual. They are used to convey religious or idealized experience, to establish behavioral models, and to teach.
  • In mythology, myths were traditional stories telling of ancestors, heroes, or supernatural beings, that were prominent in revealing the world view of a particular culture. Many myths were based on truth. (TOS: "The Way to Eden" ) Lieutenant Carolyn Palamas served as the archaeology and anthropology officer aboard the USS Enterprise. Her "particular specialties include ancient civilizations, relics, and myths." (TOS: "Who Mourns for Adonais?" ) On the planet Rakhar, the Rakhari told stories about changelings. Croden thought that they were myths until he met Odo in 2369. (DS9: "Vortex")
  • A myth is a story, legend, or political technique that appears to be true, inspirational, and/or fascinating. This quality is highly valued by people who enjoy using long sentences with obscure references, since it allows them to think that they have mystified their audience with their knowledge, when in fact the audience is just mystified. Myths have an important role in society as politics would not function without them. Examples of myths are: * Dragons * Trees * Moon Landings, * North Dakota.
  • Myth: The Fallen Lords and Myth 2: Soulblighter are a pair of classic Real Time Tactics games for PC and Mac produced by Bungie, the studio now famous for the Halo series, which contains at least one Shout-Out to them. A prequel, Myth III: The Wolf Age was produced by GOD games and developed by Mumbo Jumbo. It was rushed through development and released with no play testing, resulting in a game that was borderline unplayable until a much later fan-made patch fixed some bugs. Not to be confused with the book series of the same name by Robert Asprin.

abstract
  • A myth is a story, legend, or political technique that appears to be true, inspirational, and/or fascinating. This quality is highly valued by people who enjoy using long sentences with obscure references, since it allows them to think that they have mystified their audience with their knowledge, when in fact the audience is just mystified. Myths have an important role in society as politics would not function without them. Examples of myths are: * Dragons * Trees * Moon Landings, * North Dakota. Myths are often at the core of religious belief systems; notable examples are the religions of the ancient Greeks, the Romans, the Egyptians and the Church of Scientology. For a useful text that shows how effective myths can be, see The Koran. Other examples of myths are Bigfoot and Chinese Cheesecake.
  • In mythology, myths were traditional stories telling of ancestors, heroes, or supernatural beings, that were prominent in revealing the world view of a particular culture. Many myths were based on truth. (TOS: "The Way to Eden" ) Lieutenant Carolyn Palamas served as the archaeology and anthropology officer aboard the USS Enterprise. Her "particular specialties include ancient civilizations, relics, and myths." (TOS: "Who Mourns for Adonais?" ) According to Jean-Luc Picard, China was thought to be a myth until Marco Polo found it. Similarly, Wesley Crusher was informed falsely that the Iconians were only a myth. Picard compared the two situations in 2365 after USS Enterprise-D located evidence of the Iconians. (TNG: "Contagion" ) On the planet Rakhar, the Rakhari told stories about changelings. Croden thought that they were myths until he met Odo in 2369. (DS9: "Vortex") According to Kathryn Janeway, "Federation cosmologists had a theory that the Omega molecule once existed in nature for an infinitesimal period of time at the exact moment of the Big Bang. Some claimed Omega was the primal source of energy for the explosion that began our universe." Seven of Nine, however, felt that that was "a creation myth, like any other." (VOY: "The Omega Directive")

  • Myth: The Fallen Lords and Myth 2: Soulblighter are a pair of classic Real Time Tactics games for PC and Mac produced by Bungie, the studio now famous for the Halo series, which contains at least one Shout-Out to them. Heavily inspired by the Black Company novels and battle scenes from Braveheart, the games tell the story of an epic war between the living and The Undead, led by the eponymous Fallen Lords. They represent one of the first attempts to create a strategy game with no base building, instead giving each side a fixed number of units per level. What also sets this game apart from many others is its highly realistic and revolutionary for its time physics engine. Almost everything is potentially a projectile and everything is affected by its surroundings. This creates a certain unpredictability on the battlefield and can lead to horrible/funny outcomes. A prequel, Myth III: The Wolf Age was produced by GOD games and developed by Mumbo Jumbo. It was rushed through development and released with no play testing, resulting in a game that was borderline unplayable until a much later fan-made patch fixed some bugs. The series boasted of a vibrant modding community that lasted well into the next decade. This included entire, full-length fan-made campaigns with new factions. Some of these rivaled the original in quality and a few were even included in the Total Codex re-release. Not to be confused with the book series of the same name by Robert Asprin.
