![[info]](https://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) crackandbleed oocandbleedThe year is 1980 and Albus Dumbledore is dead. While the nation reels from the Headmaster's mysterious demise, propaganda and guerilla violence flourish. Having ridden the coattails of this aura of fear, Bartemius Crouch, Sr. has risen to power, widely supported and completely unchecked; slowly he has transformed the Ministry of Magic into an Orwellian regime. Now nothing but a Dark Lord with approval ratings, Crouch's fanatical pursuit of order tightens his choke hold on Britain. While innocent dissidents rot in Azkaban, Death Eaters roam free - untouchable due to their wealth and status, they feed back into the public's terror and ultimately maintain the Ministry's dictatorship. The only resistance to this madness is the Order of the Phoenix. Once an organization dedicated to spreading unfiltered knowledge and duelling only when necessary, under Alastor Moody's new leadership the Order is becoming progressively more militant, combating both Voldemort and their own government in an attempt to finally restore peace.
This is an AU Marauders-era RPG with an emphasis on plot, politics and war. It follows the characters on every side of the struggle - their failures, their successes, their stories and their endings as they fight and die to uphold their own ideals.Wanted: JAMES POTTER, PETER PETTIGREW, Rita Skeeter, Frank Longbottom, Alice Longbottom, Rodolphus Lestrange, Bellatrix Lestrange, Walburga Black, Xenophilius Lovegood, Ted Tonks, Sybill Trelawney, plus many other Order Members, Death Eaters, Werewolves, and Ministry Loyalists!Opening once we find

Apartments For RentVACANT. Another child of the kind foster family that also took in The Big Bad Wolf, Snow White and Rose Red, Bear has always been gruff with a hard exterior. Inside, however, he’s as kind as they come. His family abandoned him at a rest stop without warning one day when he was three, and they never returned. He’s been searching for them ever since, to no avail. Bear has always been good at taking care of himself, and his skills at breaking and entering certainly contributed to all the help Snow White and Rose Red have received. Despite his closeness to the sisters, he and former foster-brother The Woodcutter have never seen eye-to-eye on anything, including The Big Bad Wolf’s obsessions.
VACANT. Having spun so many lies that even she is confused by them, The Miller’s Daughter has a secret that only Rumpelstiltskin knows - her name. The only surviving witness to a violent crime, The Miller’s Daughter was placed in the Witness Protection Program when she was very young (something she has never quite recovered from). Recently befriended by The Pied Piper and The Little Match Girl, The Miller’s Daughter knows better that to take them into her confidence, no matter how sweet they seem.
VACANT. ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTS.
Premise:
There is an apartment building in New York called 'Bellum Letale.' Most people ignore its auspicious name, though they would be advised to pay more attention to its meaning.
It is a strange building.
Every man, woman and child in the building is a reincarnated fable, the stories told to human children for hundreds, sometimes thousands of years. Once very real, the fables began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. They have all been reborn in human forms, though their essence remains, waiting to be awakened at the right time, in the right place.
Now is the time - Bellum Letale is the place. As their lives connect and weave together, as they follow their petty desires and long-held grudges, they are, all of them, on the brink of disaster. Their Landlord knows their every move, and the building they live in seems to have an agenda of its own. People are tortured, people die, people plot behind each other's backs and sneak around and cheat. They love, they fight, they draw blood. This is not the fairy tale you remember being told. |
