Marvel: Art of War [17 Oct 2011|09:27am] MARVEL: Art of War The RPG MOD RPG OOC Directory Premise Wanted Characters Rules Holds Apply Character Directory Friending Button The year is 1963. It is a time in history like no other. There are those who feel that they are standing on the dawn of a golden age while others feel that the threat of nuclear war will tear the nation apart. The fire of the Civil Rights Movement is beginning to blaze with men and women standing up against oppression at home, as costumed superheroes and criminals begin to make their presence known. Against this backdrop of conflict and change, a man named Charles Xavier is searching for others of his kind. Xavier sees the turmoil ahead. He believes that a war against mutants may soon be coming--he sees it in the reaction of Americans to the threat of the bomb and the fear of mutation. His friend, Erik Lehnsherr, argues that violence should be met with violence, that mutants should strike first and enslave those who would harm them. But Xavier is not a man quick to anger and instead, he is preparing a sanctuary for those who would band together for protection. It is not children that he seeks but men and women--in case the battle is brought to their front door. As movements march on and wars erupt, Xavier’s dream turns from fantasy to necessity. Where will it lead mutantkind? ________________________________________ Marvel: Art of War is an alternate universe game set in New York state during 1963 where the Xavier Institute is an establishment set up on paper as a thinktank.

[17 Oct 2011|01:07pm] ➠ WELCOME TO THE CITY OF COLLIGO Deep within the Canopus System lies the planet, Soter, a world strangely similar to Earth that was created long ago by an eccentric deity known as Asaph, later known throughout the multiverse as simply The Collector. In the early days of the planet, he created his own beings to populate his world, beings without free will who existed solely to do as he wished. Though other deities had warned him that filling his world with people who lacked free will would prove tiresome and that he would ultimately regret the choice, he was a stubborn entity who did not care to listen to their wisdom. Of course, in time, he came to see that others were right and he had made an error in judgment. But rather than starting afresh, creating new people to replace the old, Asaph instead chose to collect people from other worlds, stealing them away to fill his own. Over the centuries, there were many cities on the planet, many collections of individuals that existed and fell. Colligo is his latest attempt at a city, filled with the stolen denizens of other worlds. These unfortunate people, after having been grabbed from their respective planets, times, and realities, awaken within Colligo's grand library, unaware of where they are or how they got there. Most of the books in this library are blank, no words or titles or pictures, but some have names and stories, names of captives trapped by the Collector. They are soon ushered out of the building and into the city by guards dressed in medieval armor that step off podiums, breaking the illusion that they are merely statues. No matter what abilities the new collection possesses, fighting these guards is impossible - as is leaving the planet. One can leave the city for a brief time, but they must return. Nobody can leave permanently. If one tries, they find themselves back in the library and being pushed out into the city once more by the guards. You, unfortunately, have caught The Collector's eye and have been added to his collection. Where you are is unknown, how to return to your own world is an even bigger mystery, but you're faced with two choices: learn to live in this city or die trying to escape it. THE CHOICE IS YOURS. colligo | colligo_comms | colligo_network | colligo_threads | colligo_ooc [ RULES | FAQ | APPLICATIONS | TAKEN CHARACTERS | HOLDS ] [ CANON PUNCTURING | HOUSING | OCCUPATIONS | CONTACT LIST ] [ WANTED | HIATUS | DROPS | MOD INBOX | GAME CREDITS ] post comment

Crescendo [17 Oct 2011|08:39pm] It's 1981. Voldemort is on the rise. Death Eaters roam free. Hundreds have died or disappeared. As each day passes, the resistance grows weaker. Voldemort seems to be invincible and all hope seems lost, that is until a Prophecy is made; a child with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies to those who have thrice defied him and with a power that the Dark Lord will not understand. This child will bring an end to Voldemort's reign. And so the Dark Lord set out to kill this child before he could grow into a threat. We all know the story, little Harry Potter is that child, his parent's die to protect him, the Dark Lord falls, Sirius Black is sent to prison, The Longbottoms are tortured to insanity, dozens more die, and the survivors are left broken. But let's not get further into that, because we all know that story. Because, what if the story had a different outcome? What if you had a chance to re-write canon? Decide who lives? Who dies? Who wins the war? What if you could re-write history? Here is your chance! Crescendo is an AU Marauders Era RPG taking place in 1981, when the war is in full swing. Through your actions, the story will slowly unravel into something new and exciting, or still have the same outcome. The ending is unknown, but the journey to discovering it will be a good one. So...what are you waiting for? Most Wanted: Rabastan Lestrange, Severus Snape, Rita Skeeter, Peter Pettigrew, Gideon Prewett, Dorcas Meadowes, Sybill Trelawney, Caradoc Dearborn, Benjy Fenwick, Glenda Chittock, Andromeda & Ted Tonks, Petunia Dursley, Evan Rosier, Lucius Malfoy, and many others!
