The Unmasqued World
Basic Information
The Unmasqued World represents both a setting and a speculative fiction trope. It represents a world where some supernatural or otherworldly element - magic, aliens, and so forth - have hidden or gone away for a long time, and now return - changing the world drastically in the process.

Game and Story Use
- Shadowrun uses this trope to great effect, radically transforming a near-future world into a rather strange and increasingly alien setting by adding magic and mythological creatures.
- And then there's the question of who would win in a fight: Atlantis, or a modern military?
