Premise Summary:

The Raccoon City incident didn’t hinder the Umbrella corporation’s underhanded dealings. If anything, the tragedy acted as a springboard. With the media placing no blame on the entity, and instead praising their work and the support they offered the ruined community, Umbrella was seemingly invincible. Untouchable.

Nobody listened to the survivors of the event; their warnings were met with criticism and slander. After a while they tucked themselves away and went underground to plan, while Umbrella’s higher-ups built facilities similar to the Hive, but with much more protection. Veritable fortresses, unseen and unknown of by the public. They began hammering out deals with other countries before too long, and their influence spread across the globe like wildfire.

Ten years after Raccoon City, the world had become an Orwellian dystopia, controlled by one single corporation.

——————

Wiser now, the survivors wait. Their own influence has been spreading, drawing in followers, and slowly but surely a small army has begun to rise. Revolutionaries, people who have seen through Umbrella’s façade, scorned relatives of the corporation’s victims, bitter former employees (and even current employees who have no qualms with stealing information for the good of the rebellion) have joined forces as members of the anti-Umbrella movement.

Of course, it’s not going to be easy… but these few men and women are devoted to their cause, and willing to take the company down by any means necessary.

Name of the Game: Lechance
Format: Journal based
Genre: Steampunk/alternate reality
Contact info: lechance.mods@gmail.com or Comment here
Premise Summary:
This world isn't quite like ours. Not quite. In the wake of the rennisance, which occured in the mid-thirteenth century, society changed. Gender became less important and chosen roles were taken more into account. Technology continued at a slightly increased rate but with a great deal of aestheticism taken into account: Computers exist in the nineteen century (now), but everything's different. The Americas were settled and warred, the Civil War having ended 8 years ago. The year is 1873. The City's name is LeChance. Located in Southern California, it sprung up almost overnight. Beautifully. The town is full of old world glory and decadance, a coastal city with paved streets, boardwalks on the coast, 100 miles from anywhere. Leroy LeChance, the developer has a city for 10,000 people without anyone to live in it. It has pharmacies and Doctor's offices. Repair shops and general stores. Dress Maker's and tailors and a dozen other things besides. He just needs people.
Age limit: 18+
Starting date: Already started, applications ongoing
Other details: All play is done anonymously- all communication occurs either IC or through the ooc community or the PM system

Name of the Game: X-Emplify: An X-men RPG
Format: AIM & Journal Comment
Genre: X-Men Movie-verse AU
Contact info: xemplifymods
Premise Summary: To put it simply, this is an X-men game that slides in somewhere after the first movie and skews off to the side. Made by those who are dissatisfied with the movie continuum and who would prefer to see more comic influences in the game, we have completely disregarded movies two and three though their story concepts may be played out at some point because, in essence, they would be fun to play. OCs are welcome and the game is in full swing. The time frame is somewhat mod-controlled (two weeks "real time" is equal to one week "game time") to accommodate those with real life obligations - school, family, etc.
Age limit: None, but please understand that adult situations may occur. PG-13 to R rating at the moment.
Starting date: July 2008
Other details:
