the Light of May [24 Nov 2009|12:39am] On May 1st, 2009, nation leaders spoke together to reveal a truth to the world: the supernatural world is real. Vampires, werewolves, and more exist. They have been known to the government for a long time, and now they are coming out of the shadows - and they come with a message. They are not a threat. They mean no danger to humans. But there are other things out there that do. The days that followed changed everything most people believed they knew about the world, about history, and most importantly, about themselves. Celebrities, politicians, the family down the street - they began revealing their true identities, and telling the world what they really were. Missing people that had been turned against their will came out of hiding, and orginizations popped up to reunite them with their families. The revealing of the supernatural was penned in the media as the Light of May, as society made room for the supernatural. It wasn't easy. Many, human and supernatural alike, were terrified of what this would mean. Some wanted to keep the supernatural abominations down. Leading figures of both Democratic and Republican parties were revealed to be supernaturals themselves, and joined together to fight for civil rights for the supernatural. It is revealed that if the supernatural were wiped out, half of the entire world's population would be gone. Independent parties popped up through-out the country, opposing supernatural rights, and the fight goes on. But those aren't the only battles being fought. Why did the Light of May happen? If the supernatural has always existed, why are they only making themselves known now? For centuries, those with supernatural blood have been hunted, held, and killed - all for the benefits of their blood to hunters, and vampires who don't want to play by the rules of etiquette. There was a time when the angels, and even the fae, fought to protect them. But the fae have been extinct for hundreds of years, and worse - the angels seem to have disappeared. There is nothing fighting the demons of the world at bay now. The human race is at risk, and they are not alone. The Light of May is an original supernatural game, taking place in a time when the world is adjusting to the world that has been hidden since the beginning of time. The game is set in Ann Arbor, Michigan, centered around a fictional township called Scarlet Oak. Characters of many races are up for play, as are those trusty humans. The Light of May will be focusing on characters adjustments and the eventual struggle against demons, hunters, and more. The Light of May is for original characters only. Pre-existing fandom characters will not be allowed. WANTED: Teenage/young adult males, humans, vampires, and more!

Oh Marvelous: A Marvel Universe Game [24 Nov 2009|08:24am] Oh Marvelous: A Marvel RPG "Did you ever have one of those lives?" You inhabit a fantastical universe where anything can happen. Super powered beings exist, and living a sane life is no easy feat for anyone. In such an extraordinary world, an average day can be ruined by the strangest of threats; be it viral zombies, megalomaniacal criminals or assassination attempts. All just part of a normal day in a very abnormal world. You don’t even glance up at the shrill whine of sirens or the roar of a giant monster a few blocks over. In the sky above a caped character is flying towards the fray; a member of some super hero team or perhaps a lone vigilante. Maybe the monster is a mythical creature or an invading alien or a minion of the latest super villain. A van is hurled down the street followed by another angry howl but you go casually about your business- buy your newspaper, sip your latte- and mutter cynically to yourself, "oh_marvelous." Oh Marvelous is an age 18+, social, thread based, third person, AU Marvel RPG played in real time (quite a mouthful). The game is set in present day. Although the game is New York centered, action takes place in locations all over the world. Plot is primarily player driven with occasional inclusive plots that affect the entire game. This game does not follow any set timeline or particular Marvel continuity. That means that pretty much anything goes. |ohmarvelousmod|oh_marvelousnet|oh_marvelousooc| | APPLY | INFO | RULES | GAMEPLAY | TAKEN/HOLD | WANT LIST | SITE MAP | post comment

Deceptive Perception - An Dark Supernatural-Genre Game [24 Nov 2009|08:38am] Are you tired of the same old supernatural games? Does the premise always have to include vampires "coming out of the coffin" or supernatural creatures being a shock to the world? If you think you could use a change, why not try Deceptive Perception? Deceptive Perception is not just a game—it's an experience. Supernatural creatures can live out their lives and explore their desires in a world that knows they live and doesn't have to have all the conflict arranged around their very existence. Still not sure? Why not read our review from rpg_elitist and see what they think? WANTED | PREMISE | RULES | APPLY | CHARACTER DIRECTORY | CREDIT post comment

[24 Nov 2009|07:58pm] The year is 1978. The war against the Death Eaters has been boiling under the surface for almost a decade now. It was little things at first, easy to ignore, escalating to bigger attacks, bigger crimes, and of course, retaliation. Now the country is about ready to tear itself apart as the Ministry steps up their attempts to defeat Voldemort and no one is really sure who they should trust, if they should trust anyone at all. Who can you turn to when your own government is as likely to kill you as the masked criminals roaming the streets? Even the muggles are starting to notice. Attacks in muggle places are becoming more frequent, the Death Eaters getting more bold. And everyone is asking the same question. How long before it's open war? The First War is a Post-Warts, MWPP era RPG. We are canon through November 1st, 1978 and then we diverge, allowing the characters to tell their own stories. Currently we are most interested in: Order Members, Death Eaters, and MLE Employees Rules † Cast † Wanted † Available † Journals Timeline † England † Creatures † Locations _thefirstwar_ _firstwar_ooc _firstwar_media _firstwar_hist Gamplay open since November 1st. post comment

Romdeau, a multi-fandom Ergo Proxy roleplay @ LiveJournal [24 Nov 2009|08:49pm] Romdeau FAQs X Storyline X Applicatons X Taken Characters X Holds ( Game premise under cut. ) Romdeau is a multifandom game on LiveJournal set in the world of the anime series Ergo Proxy. There's no need to have watched the series to participate. (As a player there, I can vouch for this.) It's something of a memory loss game in which your character's memories have been wiped, and they have been reprogrammed with new ones so they believe they lived in Romdeau all their lives. As the so-believed perfect, structured city comes undone, your characters begin to see flashes of what they don't know are their real lives, the ones they were taken from to be brought here. It's a promising game, and it would love to have some more players to really get it going! Lots of characters are available, so if you weren't lucky to snag that one you really wanted to play someplace else, you're likely to have them here. Give the game a look if it's something you might be interested in. Thanks! post comment
