[21 Feb 2009|12:33am] | APPLICATION | FAQ | HOUSING | MOD JOURNAL | PB LIST | RULES | | TAKEN/AVAILABLE CHARACTERS | WQ AREA INFO | When Voldemort fell it was time for the Wizarding World to grow up. There was a world to rebuild and society to help reestablish itself. It wasn't easy and it's far from over, but the Wizarding World is once again reaching the strong, powerful world it used to be. A form of nationalism has gripped the Wizarding World. No longer do the Wizards of Today want to settle their homes on the outskirts of towns, or in the Middle of Nowhere. The city is calling and they want to be in the midst of that excitement. In a spike of almost patriotism, the younger generations have been moving into areas like Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley. Mere magical-tolerant muggle populations weren't enough anymore, people wanted the atmosphere of London with the magical roots of Godric's Hollow. In 2000 the first apartment building opened in Diagon Alley, just the first of several that would open over time. Since then this area, that has come to be known as the Wizard's Quarter, has spawned an ever growing number of buildings to appease the many residents. Townhomes and apartment buildings have sprung up in addition to clubs, bars, restaurants and more wizarding owned businesses than ever before. Wizards of all types and nationalities are being drawn to the this hip area of Britain, bringing with them a diversity that cannot be rivalled by any other community of magical folks. Not everyone is happy about this turn of events, people complain frequently about how this urban growth has ruined quaint locales like Hogsmeade. The glaring modern visage of the newer shops ruins the thatched tiny village that used to stand in it's place. Diagon Alley shop owners aren't about to complain because they now have new steady clients, but there are many that don't like the grand expansion and international hub their majestic street has turned into. Mouth-watering profits keep the complaints in check there, at least. As 2005 begins, the Ministry is attempting to draw up new ordinances to help mandate the expansion and residents of this new semi-city. Some think it's about time someone put their foot down, others (mostly residents) think the Ministry still has a lot on it's plate and doesn't need to worry about flats and tea shoppes. No matter what you think of the place, it's impossible to deny the Wizards' Quarter in Diagon Alley is the hippest, coolest, most exciting place to be right now if you are a Wizard in Europe. What kind of wizard are you? Flats Still Available!! post comment

[21 Feb 2009|01:24pm] Links Mod Journal Character List Rules Applications The Village Quidditch Schedule Contact List Friend Button Image Coding Welcome to The Quidditch Village In December 2003, the Ministry of Magic decided to hold a Quidditch Tournament with the old four teams when Harry Potter was a member. All four Hogwarts Teams decided to go, although some notable players were missing as they had died in battle, they still went to Hogwarts on April 14th. It was meant to be a fun way to start a new tradition of bring past players to the Hogwarts Pitch. As Oliver Wood, Marcus Flint, Roger Davies, and Zacharias Smith walked to the center to shake hands, the teams surrounded them in a circle. That's when it happened. To the 28 players standing on the pitch it felt as though the ground had fallen out from beneath them. It was almost like a dream as they landed just outside a village. They all looked around trying to figure out what had happened. Seconds later an old woman who wouldn't show her face walked up to them, some had their wands drawn, some were just watching, some were getting ready to cry. As the old woman opened her mouth to speak, two figures started to walk towards her... "Welcome, it is about time you showed up. We've been waiting for you. Welcome to your new home. You are tasked with completing a tournament and figuring out life here. You all have a room, and a job. Don't worry, time here isn't what you are used to. You will not miss anything from the world you are from. There are two additional players here, they will take their rightful spots on Hufflepuff and Gryffindor. The two who have come in their place will act as substitutes for all four teams." The old woman smiled at them, and the two men flanking her showed their faces... Cedric Diggory and Fred Weasley. Each has been here since their respected deaths, growing to the age they would have been in your world." Each player was quickly assigned a room, a journal to communicate in that also tells them when practice and matches are, and a day job... There is no trading, it is merely what the lives of these 30 Quidditch players now lead... With the promise as soon as a winner is announced they can go home.... Let the Games Start... Needed: Terence Higgs, Jack Sloper, George Weasley & Cho Chang post comment

The Marked [21 Feb 2009|02:12pm] Premise | Taken | Held | Rules | Application What makes a person good? What makes them evil? Is it their actions, or do ends justify means? Is it something that is at the core of every person? Are you born one way or the other? Is there truly a right and wrong side to every thing? What even defines "good" or "evil"? Is it inherent or is it something forced upon us? Perhaps it is simply the sum of everything we're faced with. What side would you find yourself on if everything you'd ever known was stripped away? What happens when your world has been reset and all you have are your memories of the life you've been taken from? What if you discovered you were just a pawn in some bigger player's game? Would you change? Would you join forces with a serial killer or turn your back on a hero to get to the bottom of a problem bigger than you? Or would you do nothing at all? The Marked is a multi-fandom game. Unlike most other games in this genre, we endorse canon portrayals of your favorite characters and we also provide a working plot for you and your characters to participate in.

Darkness Rising [21 Feb 2009|03:46pm] 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 has begun to pull ranks, 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 and 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? Darkness Rising is a canon compliant Marauders Era RPG taking place in 1978. Game opened February 1, 2009.

Fortunate Isles [21 Feb 2009|06:06pm] ◊ Rules & FAQ ◊ Character List ◊ Mythological and Historical Figures ◊ Application ◊ ◊ Played - By ◊ OPENS MARCH 1st! Imagine a place where Blackbeard the Pirate and King Henry the VIII have weekly games of poker, where the fates and furies walk among the everyday citizen, where wizards are gods and no one is what they seem, even your best friend. Welcome to the Fortunate Isles. Long before wizards, emperors, kings, and warriors walked the earth the gods and the fates did. But like all species the gods died out and were replaced or forgotten in favour of new trends and ideals, but the fates are forever. The fates have stood by patiently and watched humans evolve through the centuries, looking for the perfect species for their experiment and in their search they came across wizards. Human but not quite human at the same time; with the abilities to do pretty much anything with their minds the Fates have decided that they will be perfect for the Fortunate Isles, their private get away where gods, and furies, Valkyries and pirates, kings and emperors alike walk once more, their personalities transplanted into the bodies of wizards. Upon death witches and wizards will enter the Fortunate Isles where nothing will ever be the same for them again. With all of their memories from life still in tact the witches and wizards of past must now figure out how to live with new personalities and accept the fact that not everyone can be a god and everything you once knew, is no longer the same. post comment

[21 Feb 2009|10:24pm] its a wild, wild world out there The year is 2027, and all is well...mostly. The children after the war have mostly grown up and are slowly starting their own lives. Slowly. They have time, which is not something the generations of the past have felt. There is no war, no crumbling society to rebuild. There's time to waste, there's fun to be had.It's time for the Next Generation to start the fearful process of growing up, getting jobs, settling down. Though first loves are never last loves and debauchery is alive and well in today's youth. Though... there are whispers of an old Purist, a former Death Eater, whispers that he's forcing a "Bill of Magical Marriage" on the Wizengamot. There's a bit of fear that he'll have his way by February, fear that his argument is becoming too convincing. If the Wizengamot votes in his favour, not even Kingsley Shacklebolt will be able to stop it from coming to fruition. What's odd enough, people still support this bill. These antiquated ideas of "Magical Lineage" and "Inferior Muggle Blood" are still instilled in some of the children of the new generation. The Bill of Magical Marriage goes up in front of the Wizengamot on April 1st, 2027. Will you be protesting it or protecting it? But even if it's rejected by the Wizengamot, the plans won't just stop there... wild_world via wildmods GAME OPENING MARCH 1ST WANTED: Aurelie Creevey, Colin Creevey, Dudley Dursley Jr., Cormac McLaggan Jr., James Potter, Fred Gideon Weasley II, Samuel Wood, Leonidas Zabini & many, many more! post comment
