Hi! I'm Emily, and I play Luna Lovegood and Meaghan McCormack over at the LJ game Euterpe's Corner, a postwarts game set in 2002 or 2003, I can never remember which. EC is an apartment building in Diagon Alley that houses... well, a variety of people! We've got bartenders, journalists, businesspeople, Ministry workers, people in entertainment and a smattering of Quidditch players.
What we need is... well, older people. The cutoff age for characters is thirty, and we've got a few characters - Meaghan, her roommate and fellow Quidditch player Wilda Griffiths, and Veronica Smethley, the landlady - who are getting up there. A few more would be amazing, especially if they were men. The Wilda player and I would also LOVE, honour and ADORE an Oliver Wood, particularly one who does not mind being referred to as Olivia. Or at least not too much.
We've been going strong since July, and we're fun and welcoming... so don't let the fact that it's LJ discourage you. Luna will ply you with steak and ice cream if you join! Meaghan makes no promises, but she's likely to think you're pretty brilliant. I will give you mental hugs, and warm and fuzzy shall be the cockles of your delightful heart.

OHAI. I'm Zee, and I play Lucius Malfoy (![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) ofbadfaith) and Leon Thomas (jokey) at the fabulous MWPP game ![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) blurred_lines via blurred_mods. Lucius is currently chilling in Azkaban after being arrested on Halloween, and Leon is the biological father of Dean Thomas, currently in training as a hitwizard with a girlfriend who has no clue about the wizarding world. The game itself is set in 1979, with an AU premise in that Voldemort and the Death Eaters gain power much faster than in canon, culminating in the murder of the Longbottoms instead of the Potters in 1980, and no boy-who-lived.
We are a dark, active, plot-heavy game, with an amazing and dedicated player base. All characters are sorted into one of 5 categories (DEs & Supporters, Ministry, Order & Supporters, Media, Dark Army) to maximise plot for all. Applications are going invite-only as of Dec 16, so if you've ever considered apping the game, now is the time to do it. I come with some requests from the playerbase in general -
Hitwizards: We have an amazing bunch of aurors, but practically no hitwizards! There's a bunch of names on the castlist to choose from, and lots of plotty potential.
Amycus Carrow: We have a wonderful Alecto, and he would have plot straight off the bat as he's been established as a leak, passing information to the DEs from inside the DMLE.
Augustus Rookwood: Another Ministry leak!
[Stewart] Greengrass: Daphne needs to be born, and he has a sister in play.
[Patrick Vance]: Emmeline's DE brother
[Atticus] Avery: With two children in play and plenty of first-generation DEs to interact with
Igor Karkaroff: I'd love for Lucius to plot and scheme with him!
Alastor Moody: To give the Order some sort of, well, order
Arthur Weasley: Need I say more?
Broderick Bode: To chill with Aloysius Croaker in the Department of Mysteries
Julian Proudfoot: Brother of auror Kate Proudfoot
Dark Army: Muggle werewolves, vampires and hags, to fight in Voldemort's dark army lead by Fenrir Greyback. These characters have less activity requirements than wizards, so they make great second characters, and there's loads of chances to get involved.
To get in contact with the relevant players connected to these characters, leave a comment on the hold page and they'll certainly be in touch! But of course, all characters are welcome and the full cast list is here. We're very flexible about characters not on the list being apped too, just leave a comment!
While Blurred Lines is an established game, it's easy to get caught up due to monthly summaries and really helpful players. We're close but not cliqueish, and 24 hour AIM chat makes it really easy to get to know everyone, get some good plotting done, and generally have a good time. I promise you won't regret apping, a lot of people (myself included) adore this game and we'd love to see some new players and characters!

It's been a long time since I've pimped for euphorialane. I've gone back to JUST moderating that game, which is much goodness, because uh, moderating TWO HUGE games was really draining me. I wasn't doing ANY logging or RPing, and I couldn't even find the energy to bother updating my characters. So now that I'm back and just maintaining the ONE game, I'm here to pimp!
Firstly, we're in desperate need of Slytherins. I know that Terence Higgs, Georgina Bloxam, Miles Bletchley, Melinda Bobbin, Thomas Vaisey, Daphne Greengrass, Theodore Nott, Graham Pritchard, Adrian Pucey, and Ian Urquhart could use some loving. We're particularly in need of: PANSY PARKINSON, Draco Malfoy, Astoria Greengrass, Warrington, Montague, Millicent Bulstrode, Blaise Zabini, and Malcolm Baddock. There's room for you at the inn!
Secondly, I want to pick up my Fleur again, and I have a potential Gabrielle, so what I would need is a good Bill Weasley. The last PB was James D'arcy and I'd make icons of him with red hair. There's a serious lack of awesome Bill PBs out there. My Fleur isn't an ice queen with him, not in the least. And not to the people she loves either. And I'd be playing her as having all of her children, so no pregnancy plot. She's also something of an adventurist, considering she wanted to be in the Tri Wizard Tournament, I thought it gave her a bit of an edge.
Thirdly, we could definitely use more Ravenclaw boys. Our Stephen Cornfoot is LONELY without some males around. Terry Boot, Kevin Entwhistle, Anthony Goldstein, Michael Corner... you're all wanted! We could also use a Morag Macdougal (and you wouldn't have to keep the old one's history either).
Fourthly, we could use some more WEASLEYS. We've got Ron, George, Ginny, but we definitely need a Percy, Charlie, Bill (see the second point!) and potentially a Fred.
Fourthly, we could use some people who work in the PUBLISHING industry. We have a Seamus Finnigan who would love to have an agent there!
Aaaaaand finally, LUNA LOVEGOOD. PLEASE? WE LOVE YOU. And YOU are Roger Davies' boggart, if that's not incentive enough!

Bavardage via bmods! Opened up some new characters this past week and would LOVE to see any and all males. Gryffindors, Hufflepuffs, Slytherins the most! All three years needed, but right now we have a really unfortunate boy/girl ratio and we'd like to see it even out a little bit more.
Right now, we'd really like to get a Ron Weasley and Harry Potter. On top of that, the other Hufflepuffs are looking for their mates! Ernie MacMillan, Zacharias Smith and lastly, Daphne,Theodore, Pansy and Draco would like to see Blaise Zabini and maybe even Crabbe and Goyle. We're really desperate for guys and had to put a cap on all female applications until we get things evened out somewhat.
The game is a lot of fun, we're very character oriented and it's a very social, un-cliquey game. There's a lot of character development going on, which doesn't happen all the time anymore. Sixth year trio-era game with a twist on it. While it is canon, we did put an au twist into the social aspect of it, sending around a gossip paper talking about the on goings of the lives of the students, even letting out things that people don't need to know.
We'd love to see everyone come out soon, we need all sorts of guys for all four houses and all three years. Hope to see everyone soon!
