It's 1977; school has started in earnest, and everyone is settling in for yet another perfectly normal year at Hogwarts. The homework is piled on, the threat of looming exams being beaten into ignorant minds, but all the while... something doesn't feel right. It's so much darker this year than it was last year. The days seem to be shortening beyond comprehension. The fog is thick and cold and constant, not to mention the fact that everyone seems so glum. There are disappearances being noted in the newspaper, but everything seems vague, as though someone knows what is going on, but too afraid to voice it aloud. The teachers seem a bit on edge, uncertain how to handle the evil that is lurking in the shadows. The students, for the most part, are completely unaware of what is going on, even those whose parents are deep in the throes of swearing their allegiance to one side or another. The students, it seems, live in a world of their own, one untouched by the misery and doom of the outside world. No one will say aloud what is really happening. Even after the attacks on Beauxbatons and Kinnitty, there is too much fear to put a name to the tragedies. People are too quick to label them as accidents, or to pretend that just because nine seemingly safe months have passed, that it's time we forgot our fear of what lurks unseen. The disappearances? They're not worth mentioning... right? There they are, standing on the edge at the basis of everything, wondering when they will fall |
Basis of Everything is a Marauder Era RPG set in 1977, in the Marauder's final year of Hogwarts. We're not too canon around here, and this is a slightly AU board. We don't take ourselves too seriously, and if you're going to call us up on having the wrong canon characters together... well, c'mon, this is a game! Here at BOE, we pay attention to the canon aspects that matter and do our own thing otherwise. Characters behave as canon would dictate them to, with a little fandom mixed in there too. We're not too strict, and we're all here to play and have a good time. If, like us, you like to create drama or partake in funny threads, then you're just our sort of person! We were previously open on boe.pandoras-closet.net, an invisionfree forum, but have just moved to livejournal. It's fun and exciting, and a little new to us, so be gentle! We're the patient kind, and we have a lot of backstory. Our characters are developed and dear to us, and as a pretty large and friendly community, we're always looking for similarly minded people. So, take a look at our canon list and write us up an application, we'd love to have you! |
BOE is run by Rena, Mel and Molly, and you can contact us at basisofeverything[at]gmail.com. Rena and Mel are admins of Pandora's Closet, where Molly is Graphic Staff. BOE is Pandora's resident rpg forum, so if you want graphics for your character, be it a header for your journal, some icons, or some sort of graphic for your profile, you should register on Pandora's and request from our large and helpful group of artists. We're ready and willing to help! |
