Recuperatio





Currently Casting | Casting Studio | Application | Rules | Recuperatio RPG

“Tragedy blows through your life like a tornado, uprooting everything, creating chaos. You wait for the dust to settle, and then you choose. You can live in the wreckage and pretend it's still the mansion you remember. Or you can crawl from the rubble and slowly rebuild. Because after disaster strikes, the important thing is that you move on.”-Veronica Mars

Seven years ago, the Dark Lord Voldemort fell, finally bringing an end to his vicious reign of power and terror. Yet, the war did not end with his death. For years, the Wizarding World has worked to repair the damages left during the aftermath of war. Emotional burdens have yet to fully heal, too many lives destroyed, families torn apart, and friends lost. Hogwarts was left in rubble, unable to reopen for years, the damage too great, endless sweat and tears shed as people worked to rebuild the foundations to give their children a future. Death Eaters still roam free, cunningly avoiding even the best Aurors, leaving many in fear that another war will be on the horizon.

As things begin to resemble some semblance of normalcy, an old follower of Voldemort is in the wings, plotting his revenge, gathering the remaining Death Eaters and new followers, planning to unleash a new war, wanting to finish his master’s vision. In the Ministry, a serial killer is murdering powerful political figures, leaving everyone pointing fingers and letting things slip through the cracks. Fenrir Greyback has escaped from Azkaban, butchering countless individuals as he runs from Aurors, gathering and making new werewolves in his travels, gathering an army to strike against the Ministry. All the while, the Muggle World is at war, affecting the Wizarding World as it heightens. The world is in complete chaos.

Minister of Magic, Kingsley Shacklebolt is determined to rebuild the Wizarding Community into a vision of peace and has called forth some of the best Aurors from around the world in an effort to clean up the United Kingdom, determined to capture and imprison the remaining Death Eaters and send a clear message of constant vigilance to those seeking to do more harm. Many are unhappy with the Minister’s plans, many seeking to replace him and other important individuals, some willing to go to great lengths to achieve their goals.

The Wizarding World is torn between fully recovering and moving forward and taking two steps back, arriving right back where they left off seven years ago. A new war is on the brink, which side will you choose?

Recuperatio is a canon, non-epilogue compliant game taking place in 2005. Game opened June 06, 2009.

Most Wanted: Rabastan and Rodolphus Lestrange, Luna Lovegood, Ernie McMillan, Draco, Lucius, and Narcissa Malfoy, Adrian Pucey, Bill, Charlie*, Fleur, George, Molly, Percy, and Ron Weasley, Oliver Wood, and many others!

Darkness Rising






Currently Casting | Casting Studio | Application | Rules | Darkness Rising RPG Community


"….Voldemort's powerful now. You don't know who his supporters are, you don't know who's working for him and who isn't; you know he can control people so that they do terrible things without being able stop themselves. You're scared for yourself, and your family, and your friends. Every week, news comes of more deaths, more disappearances, more torturing … The Ministry of Magic's in disarray, they don't know what to do, they're trying to keep everything hidden from the Muggles, but meanwhile, Muggles are dying too. Terror everywhere … panic … confusion …"

Across Europe the Wizarding Community lies in fear. Voldemort and his followers are on the rise, leaving behind a reign of terror in their wake. As his numbers increase, Wizards begins to grow more uneasy, increasingly choosing to fall prey to his Empire, out of fear, unwilling to stand up and fight.

In spite of the increasing danger, a small group of vigilante Wizards have begun a rebellion, daring to do what the Ministry fears to do; fight. The Order of the Phoenix is slowly growing into a force to be reckoned with, threatening not only Voldemort, but the Ministry itself.

Change is on the brink for the students of Hogwarts. No longer will they be safe behind the confines of the castle, unaware to the real dangers of the world. They will soon be forced to make their own loyalties known; a decision that will affect not only the rest of their lives, but the entire Wizarding World.

Amongst the darkness, these students are potentially the light needed to give the Order the man power to take on Voldemort’s forces. As both sides fight to gain support, one question lies: which side do you choose?

RIDDIKULUS RPG
post-hogwarts trio-era

The year is 2000. After seven tumultuous years, everything is calm. Harry Potter has defeated the Dark Lord, and things are finally as they were always meant to be.

Hypothetically. Nearly two years after the war, and witches and wizards everywhere are still having trouble putting their lives back together. Missing friends, dead family, strained relationships, and social inadequacies are causing mixed feelings everywhere. What should have been a perfect time is now, to put it best, awkward. There are so many people who don't quite know what to do with themselves now that the world isn't in grave peril.

Lucky for them, there are still a few people out there looking to change that.

Riddikulus is a game focused on character development and interaction. We offer writing prompts, a driven plot, a quill-bearing Rita, and fun players. We hope to see you soon!

WANTED: Bill & Charlie Weasley, Viktor Krum, Verity White, Fleur Weasley, the Montgomery twins, Seamus Finnigan, Eddie Carmichael, Michael Corner, Astoria Greengrass, Theodore Nott, Kevin Whitby, Marcus Flint, Terence Higgs, Zacharias Smith, Oliver Wood, Dean Thomas, Parvati Patil, Padma Patil, Luna Lovegood, the Carrows, Death Eaters, Blood Purists, and TONS more!

It’s been one year since the events of Breaking Dawn. Everything’s been quiet and uneventful. The Cullens still reside in Forks, and the treaty between the wolves and them remains strong. Jacob and Sam are still Alphas in separate packs, with Leah, Seth, Quil and Embry in Jacob’s pack. It looks like things have finally settled down nicely.

But what they don’t know is that the Volturi isn’t planning on backing down just yet. Aro wants his hands on Alice, Bella, Edward and even little Renesmee. But they have to be very careful. They won’t tolerate any more mistakes. So what will happen? Will it be the end of the Cullens or will they once again leave victorious?

After Dawn is a post-Breaking Dawn roleplaying game which will focus on writing the events that will follow after the ending of the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer.

All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players . . .

There is a longstanding rivalry between competing theatrical troupes - the Venetian Baubles and the Queen's Regency Players, besides the obvious - that they are both competing for the queen's favour and the chance to be named the premiere acting troupe in all of England. Beneath the surface is another entire quagmire of doings and goings on, because what most people do not realize is that both groups of actors is comprised of..............vampires ..........who snipe at one another every chance they get, and who are staking claims territorially over the city of London. No pun intended. Hams with a cause and a blood fetish? What is this world coming to? Now add to the mix the hunters who are determined to stamp out their very existence, and who have a tendency toward overinflated egos of their own. Who shall prevail? Or will the battling Thespians destroy themselves before the slayers even lay a finger on them? And what of the poor humans that seem to be caught in the middle?

London as you've never seen it - beneath the belly of the beast. Come join in the fun - the casting has just begun. Bring your favourite character and make him part of the action, whether upon the stage, or behind it - many choice roles are available!

Absalom, Absalom wants YOU!

Openings for actors, slayers, crew - and many more! Come find your niche and have fun with us!

Absalom is having a Renaissance Fair - come join in the fun, visit the various booths located on the main thoroughfare, watch the actors do their thing - engage in jousting or tilting to your heart's content! Just beware of the vampires

Several of our players are seeking people to fill storylines -

Rebecca would like a love interest, preferably but limited to Gerard Butler as a pb
Johnny would like a fellow slayer, and/or a love interest, pb negotiable
Edmond would like someone to play his younger brother, also a vamp, pb negotiable

The only limit here is your imagination!

Incarnate.





It is the nature of life to cycle. All things go in circles, from the helplessness of infancy to the helplessness of old age, from the role of daughter to mother, son to father. Human events cycle through peace and war over and over again. Hearts are broken and won by turns. Civilizations swell and then recede like tides through human history. Life continues.

Stories, too, cycle. The strongest stories begin with people, who tell them to their children and their grandchildren. Sometimes stories are treasured over wealth, even worshiped as lifelines against the turning confusion of chance. Stories found societies and anchor families. They teach both young and old the value of life. They drive culture and reflect change.

They also live.
People today cling to the real. They worship their own ambition and dismiss the stories of old as dusty, irrelevant pictures of times that no longer matter. Our world is not a world of stories, but a world of cheaply painted scenery and cardboard cutouts of heroes. No one has time for stories anymore.

Yet some people who live today are much more than real. They are a generation of stories incarnate, gods and legends, fables and folklore. In these gray days of reality they find themselves unable to ignore their pasts, blessed or cursed with abilities and attributes impossible to explain in cold modernity. They are beginning to discover tangible relics of the past, items that still hold power even now. Through a journal page they are now discovering each other, and as the days pass it becomes more and more clear that stories, no matter how hard they try, will not be ignored.
