Much like the Muggle England, the Wizarding world has always had a royal family. The one family who controlled everything and who ran everything with an iron fist. The Blacks are that family. The oldest and purest family in the wizarding world they have ruled Wizarding England for generations now, the crown passing from one member to the next or one branch to the next but always staying within the Black family. Those who live up to the Black name are treated to the finest things their money can buy. Clothes, jewels, tutors, and even in some cases friends.

But those who besmirch and do wrong to the name are cast out quickly and never looked upon again. Sirius Black the first did so in 1913. Known to be a man of the bottle, he let his inhibitions go one night and committed the ultimate crime. He not only revealed the magical world to the Muggle whore who sat upon his lap, but after a night spent in bed with her she ended up pregnant. Outraged that their king would do such a thing the rest of the Black family and the Ministry moved to have Sirius disowned and dethroned. Taking things one step further they not only stripped the king of his rights and title but did so to his branch of the family as well before passing it onto the next eligible heir; Cygnus Black the first.

His rule was a peaceful one marked only in tragedy with his death. Stepping up to claim the throne in 1943 his eldest son, Pollux Black has ruled steadily since his fathers passing. The country, and his family thriving under his rule.

Things are not as peaceful as they look though. For the last five years a movement has been building quietly in the shadows, a group of Knights recruiting people to their cause. Their goal? To overthrow the Black family and take back their world once more.

1970 is now upon them. With the start of a new year and a new decade the peace that has played a primary role in the Wizarding world is about to be broken and war is going to start. The question though is; Do you stand with your crown and country? Or do you fall in line with the group only known as the Knights and fight for a new world that may not ever succeed?

The town of Shelby, California has been around since the mid-18oo’s, back when Gold Rush fever was spreading like wildfire throughout the country. It’s relative closeness to the San Bernardino mountains made it a choice locale for miners and those seeking to start a new life. Twice it spat in the face of Fate. Twice it rose from complete destruction to become something great, something that would be a part of American history forever.

Present day, 2009. The years have not been kind to Shelby. Though it is a popular tourist attraction, the town has rebelled against every attempt to restore it to its former glory. How can a town rebel, you ask? It’s a controversial question, to be sure.

Psychics have reported that hundreds of restless spirits walk the streets and linger in the old buildings. Mr. Victor Shelby, a direct descendant of the town’s very first major and current owner of the place, has spent the last few years trying to track down the descendants of Shelby’s former inhabitants. The ones who responded and didn’t think him to be a crazy loon accepted the invitation (and the generous sum of money offered) to come to Shelby and attempt to communicate with the spirits. The project even garnered the attention of a popular ghost hunting television series, who expressed interest in wanting to film a documentary. For two and a half weeks the research team and the descendants would investigate the hauntings.

From the creators who brought you Old West RP, we invite you to once again venture into this fictional town. The first leg of the storyline will run from February 1, 2009 to April 1, 2009. After that, all game wide plots will be decided upon by the players. For the beginning of the game, there will be a close-off deadline for accepting applications. We will be accepting applications up until February 21, 2009, which will last up until April 1, 2009, when the second leg of our storyline is decided upon. After that there shouldn’t be any need for closing off acceptance of applications.

Whether you come as a descendant, a researcher, or even a ghost, we hope you will enjoy your adventure. This is your Haunted Legacy.

THE GAME WILL OPEN ON FEBRUARY 1, 2009.
WE ARE ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS.

Fugitives: A Volume Four Heroes RPG

After the events of March 29th, 2007 our Heroes are disheartened, spread across the U.S., and quickly losing their numbers. And to make matters worse, one of their own was working up a plan that would sacrifice his peers to better himself. As if that weren't enough, someone is out there with malicious intent toward people who are "special". Someone is hunting and rounding up anyone with abilities. No one knows who the hunter is or where the hunter comes from. And no one knows where their peers are going. Will opposing sides find allies in each other to end this menace, or will they do as they always have and serve only themselves and their own purposes? Only time will tell... and time is something they're running out of.

On December 26th, 2009, the cruise ship Nausicaä set sail from Miami to Bermuda on her maiden voyage.

In the months beforehand, 100 lucky people from all over the world won themselves a ticket with a budding cruise line, Odyssey Lines. Some entered themselves, some didn't - though it was explained that a friend, family, or co-worker anonymously submitted their name in a contest. To all winners, it seemed like a dream come true. An all-expenses paid New Years celebration in paradise. Plane tickets to Miami, and home from Bermuda were included.

The Nausicaä was set to arrive in Bermuda on January 4th, 2010. That never happened.

On New Years Eve, a terrible storm hit them at sea, pushing them off-course and sending them deeper into the Bermuda Triangle. All outside communication with the world was lost. Satelite devises, such as tracking, died. Compasses began to spin. Cell phones stopped working. They were lost at sea.

On January 2nd, the Nausicaä turned what was presumably East, knowing that eventually they'd hit something. This, too, never happened. Though direction was never altered, the sun rose and set in a new position every day.

Crew started disappearing. The captain kills himself. The Nausicaä is lost in the Bermuda Triangle, its passengers left to fend for themselves.

Will you survive?

Oblivion is a brand new, original-character game just opened on January 2nd. We have friendly, experienced mods, and an ever-growing player base happy to plot! Don't miss your chance to be there from the beginning!

IN THE 1970s, the wizarding world saw the rise of Lord Voldemort, fearsome leader of the movement to eradicate muggles and muggle-borns from the world. The first five years of Voldemort's active stage were relatively quiet though. Very few actually knew an uprising of the purist movement was coming soon - and in the most extreme of ways. Towards the middle of the decade, he and his Death Eaters came more into the forefront, staging attacks on the muggle and wizarding worlds alike. No witch or wizard could believe what was happening. Not since the time of Grindelwald had such havoc been wrought on their world, let alone to the muggles as well.

However, life goes on. People get married, have children, continue living their lives, even with the constant threat over their heads. Students continue to attend Hogwarts and learn, fight, and fall in love. The fifth years prepare for their O.W.L.s. As they hurdle toward their exams, stress, along with the sparks of conflicting ideas, put strains on students and the relationships they hold, particularly one of Lily Evans and Severus Snape. The pinnacle moment of the breaking of their friendship was talked about for months afterwards. Severus Snape called his best friend a Mudblood in a moment of humilation and anger, causing the demise of their friendship, and putting into motion the events and actions that would eventually lead to the death of Lily and James Potter and baby Harry Potter destroying Voldemort the first time.

But... what if it had not happened? What if James had not approached Severus and found something else to direct his attention towards? Would things have been different? Could it have changed the course of history or would Lily and James marry still and have the saviour of the wizarding world? Only time can tell.

Death Eaters are infiltrating Hogwarts by recruiting students within, student's families are being torn apart, and the world is spiraling into a war based on bloodlines. Through all of this, how will Hogwarts students lead their lives? Where will their loyalties fall as they are forced to choose between joining Voldemort or defying him? One thing is certain though: They will feel like they are not in control of their own destinies.



Most wanted characters: Kingsley Shacklebolt, Marlene McKinnon, Dorcas Meadowes, Amycus Carrow, Alecto Carrow, Alastor Moody, Arthur Weasley, Molly Weasley, Ted Tonks, Andromeda Tonks, Order members, Death Eaters, Ravenclaws, Hufflepuffs, Weird Sisters, and many more!
