Islington School

Could you thrive at a school like this?

We live in a world where people are either Mundane, or Gifted - and the Gifted have the ability to control an element, even if only in a small way. It's not a secret. It's not even all that taboo. It's something of a fact of life. The great thing about schools like Islington, is that there's no real emphasis on how different people are. If you're Gifted, you will be taught how to control and use your Gift here, but you won't be made to feel like an outsider, or a freak, like can happen in other places. If you're Mundane, you'll be given just as many opportunities as the Gifted students - they might be different, but they will be just as numerous - and you won't be made to feel less-than.

All magic aside, no matter where your talents and skills lie, there is a place for you here at Islington School.

Islington School has been completely revamped and retooled! It is a het and fem/slash friendly, original character roleplaying game on InsaneJournal, set in a boarding school environment with a supernatural twist. This game will focus on character development, especially on the way the Gifted are perceived by the Mundane and vice versa, but there will also be non-supernatural issues based in and around boarding school life, as well as some larger plot. We are looking for writers who are 18+ and who enjoy seeing their characters grow as people!

When Darkness Falls: A Multi-City Supernatural RPG



WE ARE A MULTI-CITY GAME FEATURING NEW ORLEANS AND BOSTON! WE ARE CURRENTLY ACCEPTING HOLDS AND APPLICATIONS FOR BOTH LOCATIONS!

When Darkness Falls is a multi-location original character role-playing game set in the iconic ciies of New Orleans, Louisiana and Boston, Massachusetts. The story began in November 2012 when supernatural beings were still hidden from the public, living alongside unsuspecting humans who were never the wiser. Werewolves, vampires, shape-shifters, gifted humans, and others struggled to keep their secrets, while still maintaining relatively "normal" lives.

In 2014 a group of humans, bent on exposing the supernaturals for what they are, began cropping up in cities across the globe including New Orleans and Boston. Their cause grew quickly, and despite resistance the supernatural community was exposed to the world in grand fashion.

In New Orleans the initial reaction was to condemn supernaturals, to lock them away and to keep their kind away from humans. This proved futile, however, as the supernaturals banded together and fought back. The war between the human and supernatural worlds did not last long, however, before the government began to intervene.

In Boston the news of the supernatural world was swallowed with a bit more ease, though unrest was soon apparent. While no fighting broke out there was a push to separate supernaturals from human beings for safety reasons, a movement that was quickly squelched out when the government stepped in to run the show.

Presently the world is still making a shift toward a new era, where supernaturals and humans can co-exist together in a world no longer segregated by lack of knowledge. There are those who still oppose this movement, though laws and regulations are now in place to protect the interests of all parties. While humans must learn to cope with the new world order, supernaturals must learn to adjust to no longer lurking in the shadows; darkness is no longer their ally.

Opened in November of 2012 and currently seeking new, active players for both New Orleans and our new city: Boston!

Marauders!: An 80s AU




Marauders! is an AU 80s game based upon three major 'fixes' to canon. First, Peter died rather than give up the Potters, and despite Voldemort ripping the secret from his mind that fateful Halloween night had a rather different outcome. James and Lily survived, and Voldemort is presumed dead. Harry's still got his scar, but Dumbledore says not to worry about it. Second, Regulus got the ring to Dumbledore and Dumbledore was able to destroy it without cursing himself. Regulus was presumed dead as well, but not everything is as it seems. Third, the Lestranges were defeated before they could drive the Longbottoms insane, and are currently languishing in Azkaban while the Longbottoms (among others) are alive and mostly well.



Current game plots: A dark-wizard cult has been kidnapping and killing people in the name of power. An unlikely source comes forward with information on how to stop them. Oh, and Harry Potter's pirate-themed birthday is a go.

Wanted: Ted Tonks, Fabian Prewett, Molly & Arthur Weasley, Auror Proudfoot, Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs, Parents of Trio-era characters.

Zenith

When your eyes open you're staring up at an unfamiliar ceiling. The world is hazy and you feel as though you’ve been in this place a long time. Slowly, awareness filters in. You’re lying in a strange bed, an IV in your arm. You wear a hospital gown and a bracelet identifying you as a subject number.

Not patient.
Subject. This is all wrong.

You sit up and take in your surroundings. You are in a room tailored to your tastes. With a jolt of alarm, you realize a camera points at you from the ceiling. You are being watched. On the floor near the bed sits a cardboard box. Slowly you make your way to it and find whatever clothing you were wearing last.

You remember now. You’d been going about your daily life when someone approached you. You had a moment’s warning that you were in danger, and then—nothing. You opened your eyes and found yourself staring up at fluorescent lights. Something vaguely like a hospital room. The feel of restraints upon your wrists. Those restraints are gone now. There's nothing else for it: you must open the door.


Mount Zenith is an original psychological horror game centering around the abduction of a seemingly random group of people, and the experiments they are subjected to. Every day the characters will be tested against strange scenarios and harsh stimuli. They will have no choice but to live and work with one another in the strange town they have been placed in. Play by the rules and be rewarded. Refuse, and be punished. They have no contact with their captors, but one thing is apparent: escape is impossible.

Through the course of gameplay the characters will come to realize their selection for this involuntary experiment isn’t random at all. Each and every one of them has something in common - a secret that’s been kept from them their whole lives...

You only have until sunrise to finish.

PHOENIX BAY


It is the year 2017 and the Torchwood team has done its best managing the rift with only a three-man team, (Jack Harkness, Gwen Cooper and Martha Jones) for the last 12 years, that is until things started to change. While it was always expected for people and other beings to slip through the rift here and there, the numbers seemed to be on the rise. The thing that worried the team the most was that not only humans were coming through. The team was finding that beings such as vampires, werewolves, and so many other kinds were arriving and unable to register who was safe and who wasn’t led to Jack Harkness to consult with other experts: the Watchers Council, led by Rupert Giles, and the Cullens, led by Carlisle Cullen and his family.

The Watchers Council had moved to Wales after the fall of Sunnydale. They had to find a new place to form their base of operations once the First Evil was defeated, and while Giles would have preferred to return to London, it became obvious that Cardiff was where they needed to set up. Two years after Giles made his new home Cardiff, he reluctantly agreed to work with Angel and his team as well, once he became aware of their actions to bring down Wolfram and Hart. While Giles had seen a rise in vampire and other demon activity, he wasn’t aware how bad it had become until he was approached by Jack Harkness. Again, Giles reluctantly agreed to work with the Torchwood team, if only to maintain the safety of the citizens of Cardiff.

The Cullens were an odd choice for Jack to choose, but he had become aware of their presence in Cardiff only after they defeated the Volturi in Italy. The battle between the two began after the Cullens were falsely accused of creating an immortal child. That was only the tipping point in the beginning of the end for the Volturi. The Cullens always knew that there had to be laws in order to maintain the secrecy of their kind, but the rule of the Volturi always seemed to be too much. The other issue of their rule was Aro and his penchant for “collecting” those with special abilities that he desired to be in control of. The Cullens knew that none would be safe if Aro remained in control so that left them no choice but to stop the Volturi as a whole. The Cullens and their many friends prepared for the battle, and while they nearly lost everything as they fought, however they managed to pull through defeating the Volturi in whole While Carlisle didn’t relish in the thought of having to kill others of their kind, but he knew there was no other way.


The three groups now work together to keep the city of Cardiff and the rest of the world safe from whatever makes it through the rift. Those who have been deemed safe by The three groups can find jobs and homes within the city of Cardiff, or they can attend or teach at the local university, Phoenix Bay University. Each person is given a laptop and money to get started, a debit card with £2000.

Veiled World - Actively recruiting Vampires, Dragons & Hunters

Veiled World - Open since January 2016


The supernatural is all around us, vampires and werewolves live next door to you and to be honest, your senator's likely a vampire, incubi and merfolk serve you coffee in your favourite coffee shop . That alternative looking woman that runs the herbal shop down the road? She's a sixth generation witch. The bank manager that sort of weirded you out but looked excited when you handed over your family jewels to put in a safety deposit box? Yeah... good luck getting that back: you just handed grandma's gold to a dragon.

The Supernatural Government kept peace for years, brokering a tentative peace between all of the supernatural races and making sure that they stayed out of the light, as it were, out of sight. Ten years ago, a number of the elected officials were executed, assassinated by an unknown party. The peace that had been on a knife's edge was shattered and now the supernatural world is at war within itself. It's an underground war, fought with polite words and veiled threats, but a war all the same.

With a recent surge in the death rate in the city, and an increased reporting of ghostly sightings all over the state there's more going on than meets the eye. Between the possessions and the mass- induced hallucinations that are plaguing human kind and sudden increased tensions between the werewolves and vampires, with malcontents on both sides stirring the pot to cause whatever trouble they can, maybe it's time to start thinking that what was initially thought to just be a war within the supernatural world isn't as simple as was first thought... Perhaps there's a bigger threat out there that they need to face.

Welcome to the war.

Watchers, Please

In the beginning, there was only the Creator. And She created the world; its lands and seas, peoples and beasts. She created the Keeper, to rule over the dead. She gave the world to her people, whom She loved dearly, to do with what they would. The people multiplied, forming their cultures and societies, and were faithful to the Creator. And when there were many, the Creator made the Watchers: lesser deities to watch her people and report. You see, there are simply too many people for the Creator to keep track of, too many prayers to answer. The Watchers watch, and tell Her what her creations need.

But they speak in His ear, too.

She gave the Watchers free will, and perhaps that was Her greatest mistake. Not every Watcher is good. Not every prayer is answered by the Creator. The Keeper speaks to the Watchers, too, and He does not want for good in the realm of the living. He wants only to rule all, with the death of all things.

You, the player, are a Watcher, and the choice is up to you. Will you do good or evil? Which prayers will you answer? Which side are you on?

Watchers, Please is an original high-fantasy game in a medieval setting where the players themselves are the gods. You are a Watcher. Characters pray, and players submit requests. Every week, players will vote on which prayers and requests will be answered – and by whom, and how. How do you want to rule? Only one thing is certain: characters should be careful with what they wish for.

Premise


In 2004 a new threat rises up against the wizarding world. It's not a new Dark Lord. It's not a foreign power. It's the Muggle world.

The scientific and technological advances in the Muggle world have allowed governments across the world to spy on wizards. The spells that worked so well against people aren't effective against CCTVs, satellite imagery and mobile phones that record everything. Governments are intent on capturing and studying wizards to harness the power of magic for their own purposes. No where is safe.

The British world responds by becoming more insular than ever. After the Muggles destroy Diagon Alley, new villages are created to keep everyone away from Muggles. Spells are researched to counteract technology. In the meantime, magic around Muggles becomes lethal. Finding and keeping away magical beasts and beings is paramount. Can they find a way to defend themselves before Muggles take over the magical world?

Features


* Gameplay is set in 2004
* Plot Focused
* Minor characters welcome
* World building encouraged

Pax Letale: A Deities RPG

Apartments For Rent
VACANT. Maui and Coyote were unlikely friends growing up, and now that Coyote finds himself in a bind with drug gangs, he could really use his best friend's advice.



VACANT. Sigyn is Loki's ex-boyfriend but still soulmate. Loki believes Sigyn cheated on her, but the truth is far stranger than that — he's actually in witness protection.



VACANT. Giltinė met Hades in Stuttgart, Germany, where he discovered his family's past, and they had a brief, ill-advised affair. They've remained good friends since.



VACANT. Persephone and Xochiquetzal both attended Los Angeles City College, ending up in a night class together. Due to similar interests, they became fast friends and remained in touch after Persephone earned her degree and moved on to UCLA.



VACANT. ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTS.


Premise:
Five years ago, Pax Letale opened with much fanfare to provide a home to a unique set of clientele in Newport Beach, California. After nearly a year of mishaps, culminating in the death of one of its tenants, the apartment complex was shut down by the authorities after management was considered culpable in what was being called a murder investigation. In time the investigation turned cold case, and no charges were ever brought.



Now, Pax Letale is opening its doors once more. Boasting the tagline, "under new management!," the complex is newly updated to the latest fixtures and ready to cater to customers once again. Though the building offers the latest in amenities and apartment layouts, it's difficult to get a lease. There isn't even a waiting list to be put on. Instead, tenants who do manage to end up living in the building are special — they just don't know it yet. Anyone who does end up calling Pax home belongs there.



Every tenant of Pax Letale is a deity reborn in a mortal form. Those gathered within the complex are close to an awakening, touching the memories of their former selves and realizing once again who they truly are. With this awakening comes dangers in a new form, whether it be from old enemies, those who control the building itself, or from mortals who will throw themselves at the deities' feet for the barest scrap of attention.



To each and every new member of Pax Letale — welcome home.
