A Song of Ice and Fire RPG [06 Dec 2009|02:15am] Opening Dec 14 2009 A Whisper of Darkness A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE RPG moderators the game ooc player directory premise faq rules characters cast application "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come." --The Oath of the Night's Watch, A Game of Thrones The War of the Five Kings gave way to the War of the Four Queens, and fealty sworn and allegiances shifted as the West scurried to side with either the Houses Tyrell and Lannister or the House Targaryen in anticipation of the Great War That Never Happened. Indeed, all the nobles' scheming was undermined when the Others broke the Wall. In spite of the fierce efforts by the Night's Watch to keep the Others--and wights--at bay, it was simply not enough. Even as Wildlings lent reinforcements for the Watch, those who had been quick to dismiss the threats from the north soon learned the bitter truth of the Stark words as the North plunged into the dark. A temporary truce was declared by all sides of the impending battle for the throne, and the Others were once more driven back by the combined forces of men and dragons, but at a terrible price. Queen Daenerys took the throne unchallenged, but found herself ruling cities of ash and bone. Spring was still a distant dream... but spring did arrive, and the years passed, turning into centuries... ( It is now 500 AL. ) A Whisper of Darkness is a role play game based on the world depicted in George R. R. Martin's epic series A Song of Ice and Fire. post comment

[06 Dec 2009|02:56pm] THE OTHER SIDE MODS • RPG • OOC Have you ever craved something a little different without ever knowing exactly what it was? Well, here at The Other Side, we'd like to indulge you. Enable you, free you. We understand the appeal of crack!comms. Getting to create a character all your own with a little dash of canon thrown in. You always wanted the Malfoys to have a daughter. Or maybe you wanted all of the Weasleys to be boys? Or perhaps you were always a sucker for Severus/Lily and were always upset that they never ended up together. That's what crack!comms offer you. Freedom of creativity. We admire that. However, on the other side, we understand the appeal of a normal, plot based canon game. While not nearly as unrestricted as a crack!game, it gives you plot to work off of and create a story with. It brings you stability and sometimes it's just nice to sit back and play a canon character you happen to love, no alterations needed, right? So, at our game, we decided to dip our fingers in both soups. The Other Side is an Alternative Universe Harry Potter game. In 2001, with Second War alumni returning for a sudden reunion, they quickly find themselves sucked into another world altogether. Being no common magic, everyone is alarmed and confused. Given housing of their own for the time being, they come to realize that they're not the only ones stuck in such an intensely abrupt situation. With them, huddled all under one Inn's roof, are various alumni from the First War. Funny thing is, they don't seem to know any more about what happened than the rest of them. This new world is an alternative take on how the war could have gone. With Bellatrix leading the head of a vicious group of assassins called the Moraie, she stands tall as conqueror of Britain with her husband Rodolphus and their adopted son, Neville. It seems as if she had a different take on how to deal with the "Chosen One" the Prophecy spoke of. Surely raising him would be enough to cancel it out? So she hopes. And, where is Albus Dumbledore in all of this, you might ask? Disappearing shortly after the crumbling of the Order and Bellatrix's rise to power in 1981, he has been neither seen nor heard from in twenty years. Aberforth was kind enough to take over the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts after his brother's disappearance and is hoping that with the arrival of all of these new visitors that perhaps reinstating the Order to what it once was will bring Albus back for good. | premise | rules | f.a.q | | available characters | wanted characters | | application | post comment
