Salutations



Welcome to RPG-Connect! This community was designed as the middle ground for rpg advertising communities on insanejournal. When I was browsing IJ, I came across two types of ad communities: the over-restricted and the under-restricted. To me, most of the communities had lost it's personal touch with the roleplaying world. Here at RPG-Connect, our goal is to help quality players and games find one another. Are you looking for a home to place your character or find a person to fill your roleplaying needs? Do you want your game ad to reach the right kind of people? Look no further because you'll find that here.

NEW YORK BY NIGHT

A WORLD OF DARKNESS...

A delinquent vampire took you in a filthy bathroom at a rave, the music pounding as your young sire panicked after a feeding gone wrong. He gave you some of his Blood, and you collapsed in the ecstatic agony of the Embrace. You come to an hour later and stagger into the night a vampire, with no idea of what’s going on. How do you connect with the rest of the World of Darkness?

It’s not easy. The Masquerade means that it’s hard for vampires to find each other, especially in big cities. You don’t know the Traditions, and you broke the Prince’s law before you even knew there was a Prince.

When you finally find your way to Elysium, you discover that ignorance is no excuse in the courts of the immortals. Authorities far beyond the ken of mortals can sentence you to death – to the true death, this time.

But maybe you get to live. What’s the shape of the world you enter? What’s happening in the world of vampires?

Will you survive :

NEW YORK BY NIGHT

[info]nybynight is based on Vampire: The Masquerade and is a Camarilla focused chronicle with Anarch Movement undertones focusing on the uses of power, the dead hand of the past, and the questions of safety and duty versus honor and freedom as the Second Inquisition pushes in upon them.

No previous knowledge is needed to play.

Looking for Losers at [info]compass_mod! Bill, Richie, Eddie, and Ben already in residence but they need Stan, Bev, and Mike too, obviously. They're usually kids but sometimes jump to adults 'cause timey-wimey nonsense. Low-key slice-of-life panfandom and OC game with occasional game-wide plots. We've been going for almost a decade and, while not quite fast and furious, gameplay is still steady.

Our story is about a town, a small town, and the people who live in the town. From a distance, it presents itself like so many other small towns all over the world; safe, decent, innocent. Get closer, though, and you start seeing the shadows underneath. The name of our town is Riverdale...

WELCOME TO RIVERDALE is a pan-fandom game set against the backdrop of the CW's Riverdale and Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa's Archie comics. Mixing elements of magical realism, urban legend/fabulism, and the modern horror genre, we seek to seamlessly blend some of our favorite fandoms and thrust them into the most horrifying landscape of all: suburbia.

Come find a seat at Pop's, order a milkshake (vegan and dairy-free are on the menu now), and stay awhile.

There were rumors in the desert, but everyone knows the Sohar will say anything to make a trade.

The remaining clans of Fornya have existed on unsteady truces, capricious alliances, and merciless vendettas since before they can remember. Their only united effort is the neutral city of Enver. Once a beacon of hope for the survivors of the Great End, Enver has withered to a financial burden that many of the clans no longer support. Still, when the time for tributes is called, they pay their share. And when the seasonal festivals come around, they travel the distances to celebrate among friends and enemies in a temporary armistice of any feud between them. And this year was no exception.

Until the Rabid attacked their homelands and forced them to start anew in the old city. Without the space that once separated them, the clans must find a way to overlook their differences and work together for the survival of not only their own people but all people. The question remains, however, will they survive another attack by this distant enemy? Or will their centuries-old resentment and animosity bring about their own end?

✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥✥

Fornya is a years-in-the-future, post-apocalyptic, medieval setting, original character game. After an apocalyptic event, humanity started over sans technology amidst the rubble of the Old Word and eventually developed to a Middle Ages-esque dystopia ruled by warring clans. Threatened by an outside force of ravenous humans, the surviving clan members will make a home in Enver, the city where their societies began. This game is character and thread driven, supported by both mod and player devised plot opportunities.

the shadow before - an original character game


[info]theshadowbefore
[info]rpg_connect

THE SHADOW BEFORE
On the surface, Point Pleasant, Maine certainly appears to be the kind of idyllic coastal town that every tourist would want to flock to during the warm summer months. It has that welcoming small town atmosphere that draws you in and makes you feel as though you belong. Locals will be sure to point out its gorgeous harbor, cozy little shops, the pollution free night skies, clear and full of stars... not to mention its disturbing fascinating history.

What the locals won't tell you is that for the past three hundred and twenty three years, Point Pleasant has unwittingly served as a nexus for the supernatural, the metaphysical, the evil and the damned. There are plenty who are dismissive of its history. After all, every town has a run of bad luck here and there. So what if Point Pleasant has an unusually high number of missing persons... strange and unexplainable deaths happen. That? That wasn't a monster you saw... monsters aren't real. Right?

Oh, everyone wants to talk about what's happening in their town, and yet no one really wants to talk about it. They're content with going on with their lives, getting through school, making another buck, getting through the day in one piece. But what they don't know is that ignoring the evil won't make it go away. Those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it, isn't that what they say? Simply put, whatever has been drawing the darkness into their small town is only getting started, and nobody is safe.

The Shadow Before is an original, horror based game set in the fictional town of Point Pleasant, Maine. This game is inspired by various elements of horror and the supernatural, and will include both game wide plots as well as individual arcs. Warning: Mature and dark themes lie ahead.

GOOSEBERRY HIGH • a harry potter oc game on dreamwidth


[info]goosemods
[info]rpg_connect

It’s 2014, and the brightest teen witches and wizards in America are gathered in the wilderness of northern Utah, where they spend their mornings learning magic and inventing new spells, and their afternoons mountain-climbing, kayaking and riding winged horses. After last June’s harrowing encounters with the powerful magical entities that guard these woods, most are hoping for a quiet year...

But MACUSA agents have set up camp nearby, claiming to only be here for the students’ safety, and the ghosts of children, once rarely glimpsed, keep popping up as the living go about their days. “Be careful,” one of them warns. “Be brave.”

Welcome to Gooseberry High, a slice-of-life American wizarding school game with atmospheric horror elements. Combining Hogwarts (houses, magic and Quidditch), high school drama (nerds, jocks, cheerleaders and choosing where you’ll sit in the cafeteria), camp (mosquitoes, roasting s’mores and the great outdoors), and the creepiness of being stuck in the middle of nowhere. Original characters only.

Every once in a while, there is a door that appears for witches and wizards. One that lurks in the corner of a person's eye and begs their curiosity. A rickety old door with rusted metal and splintered, warped wood. Those that are brave enough to walk through it will find that there is not simply a dusty old closet. Rather, there is a world beyond that door -- one that is apart from time itself.

In a seemingly quiet, quaint little village lies something as dark and haunting as the door that leads to it looks. Once someone steps through it, there is no going back and you enter a world where nightmares become real.

The Cellar Door is a time-displacement Harry Potter roleplay with dark themes. We look to build an active, plot-centric community which tests the bounds of characters within the village. Will you be daring enough to walk through the door?

Would you believe that all the gods that people have ever imagined are still with us today?


Across America, just beneath the world we see, exists another world. One full of gods and monsters, of immortals and saints and demons. They walk among us every day and although we don't know it, our every thought fuels their lives.

Nevermore is a well-established, long-running game set in the world of American Gods. This particular game has been kicking around IJ in one form or another for years - at the moment our player base is quite small and so we're looking for fresh blood to come join us.

John Adams Prep - a preternatural high school game


[info]adamsmod
[info]rpg_connect
JOHN ADAMS PREP
On the surface, John Adams Preparatory School boasts an impressive and competitive academic program for the children of the 1%. What people don't know is that half, if not most of the students are preternatural. The school has more brewing beneath the surface than an old order of preternatural hunters alive and well among the student populace.

They brought across the pond hundreds of years ago. Something that's been asleep for a long time. That something is waking up and soon these teenagers will have more to worry about than who to vote for as Homecoming court.

HOLDS OPEN. GAME BEGINS WITH 5 APPROVED APPLICATIONS

John Adams Prep is a preternatural-themed roleplaying game set in an upscale private school in New York City. It blends concepts from the works of L. J. Smith, Kim Harrison, and others while utilizing premades to encourage a colorful variety of characters. This game is slash and femslash friendly and meant for players 18+.

Pax Letale: A Pre-Made Deities RP


[info]paxnarrator
[info]rpg_connect
Apartments For Rent
VACANT. Thoth is an intelligent, measured man, capable of bringing Ares somewhat down to earth. He is a skeptic, though not necessarily a cynic. The two drifted apart somewhat when Ares went away to college, though they did keep in infrequent contact.

VACANT. Raven is Eris' close friend and a paparazzi on the payroll of TMZ. Raven supplies Eris with a good majority of the fodder for her gossip columns and the two get into plenty of trouble otherwise.

VACANT. Giltinė met Hades in Stuttgart, was with him when he discovered his family's past, and had a brief, ill-advised affair with him. 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.

The Low Reaches

The Low Reaches

Break's over, cupcake.

Your alarm grins it at you from your bedside table. You roll over, willing that monster away, but it's already made its way in. You feel those whens, whos, and whys squirming inside you. The worst kind of worms. They'll be gone in the morning, but now it's just you and them and they're churning you inside out.

That'd teach them. For sending you back to school. For stealing away this sweet summer bliss.

The disappearances might steal some of your thunder though. There'd be no televised funeral, no pile of flowers left at your bed or your parent's door. No charities or sick kid hospitals either. Nothing. So unfair. You'd just be another flower on the memorial to everyone but your friends, family, and this new thing curled up at your side.

You lift it up into the air. Your new Pokemon — the one you got on your birthday. The one you're not legally supposed to have but no one really cares about. It stares at you with sleepy eyes. It quiets the worms. Puts back some of the spine they chewed away. You roll back over, cradling your new favorite thing, and brave the clock again.

The worms didn't go away. They're butterflies now.

Welcome to the Belfry, kid.

✕ ✕ ✕

The Low Reaches is an Original Character Pokemon RPG. As a young trainer in the new frontier region of Sinjoh, you’re thrilled to finally start catching Pokemon — but it’s hard not to be nervous, too, what with you just starting the seventh grade at Blackbell Middle School. And that's not to mention all the strange disappearances...

Game begins 10/01/2017.

No one was ready for it when the fanatic occultist group Ordo Templi Orientis revealed the truth about vampires to the world five years ago. At first, the public didn't believe and centuries-long rivals, the Templar Knights, did their best to keep the supernatural world a secret. The Templars, despising this new faction and the image they portrayed to the public, set out to stop the extremist group at all costs and protect the secrets kept by the supernatural. However, the extremists of Ordo were all to eager to show the world these supernatural monsters. Worldwide, vampires were forced to register with their governments or risk being hunted, legally.
