The Premise
Voldemort is dead – has been for almost seven years now – the war should have been over that night long ago when Harry Potter did what no one dared believe he would do. The war, however, didn't end, but went on. Regrouping under Bellatrix and Rodolphus Lestrange, the Death Eaters kept fighting and with the Ministry gone and the Minister for Magic killed, the wizarding world was thrown into chaos.

From this chaos, two new factions were born. One group (under the leadership of Minerva McGonagall) wanted to open wizarding society to a decidedly suspicious Muggle world, whilst the others wanted to close off the wizarding world completely from Muggle influence and seek strength in isolation. With a brutal attack destroying Diagon Alley that left a part of London burning, the two factions of light realised that they must start working together to defeat the Death Eaters.

The game began at this turning point of the war - the point where the side of light finally has a chance to win. But there is still a long way to go. Can these two factions put aside their differences to finally win this war, or will they dissolve into their own fighting, giving the Death Eaters a chance to overcome?

Which side will your character support?
The Game
Beyond the Darkness RPG is a role-playing game based on the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. The setting takes place seven years after Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows ends but is canon compliant only to Half Blood Prince (as the game began before the release of book seven).

If you're looking for a game where player influence on the main plot is high and the moderators are willing to listen to your suggestions, then this is the game for you. One year running and still going strong, we see a bright future for the game. With plot-lines running far beyond the end of the war, we're not going anywhere for a long while.

We are looking for creative and active players who want to build a story for their characters in this far from perfect world. All levels of experience are welcome, from the players who have never played an RPG before, to those who have played for several years.

You must be 18 years of age or older to apply.

Game officially started on February 2nd 2007.
The Characters
At the moment we're actively looking to recast several important characters, as well as seeking those we feel could develop the over all game. The list of available characters is still large and varied however, so don't hesitate to take a look.

Among those we're seeking to recast are: Rodolphus Lestrange, Minerva McGonagall, Draco Malfoy, Fenrir Greyback, Bill, Charlie and Arthur Weasley...as well as several others.

Examples of other needed characters would be Lee Jordan, Rita Skeeter or another canon character who is involved with the media in some way as this world is in great need of some way to spread news.

We're also looking for a Death Eater who could function as a spy within Upper Slaughter. This needs to be someone who could be recruited by Severus (so someone who trusts him), and also someone clever enough to manoeuvre around Rodolphus and Bellatrix - which is not an easy task.

Things are tense at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Rumors of Voldemort's return are being whispered amongst the students, voices hushed and nervous as the latest bit of information makes the rounds. Fear has settled heavily on many shoulders, quickly bringing uncertainty and mistrust to an already divided school. Who belongs to which side? Are there spies amongst the students? What will happen next, who will die next? Can anything be done?

The school may be safe from the outside wizarding world, but are the students safe from each other? The generations-long battle between the houses hasn't gotten better, and current tensions have done nothing but elevate the rivalries to a new level. To make matters worse, an anonymous group of four girls have stepped things up, creating a vicious gossip paper that periodically and sporadically details information about their fellow students. Details that only close friends would know. Details that no one is ever happy about having shared with the entire student body.

It's called Bavardage. No one knows who publishes it, or how information is gathered for it. The only certain thing about it is that it is another source of trouble and uncertainty. With the teachers seemingly unable to stop new issues from going out and the issues getting progressively nastier and revealing more secrets, the last, thin threads of trust amongst the houses are fraying quickly. Friendships are being challenged and broken, and new, dangerous liaisons are being built.

The general consensus is that the girls must be stopped: but how? The purebloods are getting snobbier every year, the halfbloods are losing recognition for their minds and intellect and the muggleborns are treated as welfare cases on scholarship from the British Prime Minister. The whole student body is stuck in a downward spiral, trapped by an endless ring of rumors and lies. Libel and slander are not punishable, but instead encouraged. There's nothing more important than bringing down anyone suspected of being responsible for Bavardage. People are getting hurt, and not just by the paper. With no one able to trust anyone else and constant fights breaking out, the search for the guilty is getting nowhere extremely fast.

There's war brewing, and not just outside of Hogwarts. Somewhere within the castle that is supposed to be one of the few safe refuges left in the wizarding world, four girls are playing a dangerous game with their fellow students. Will the school collapse onto itself, or will the youth of the wizarding world be able to band together and overcome the fear, distrust, and rivalries that are threatening to tear Hogwarts apart?

BAVARDAGE. Will you end up on the top, or on the bottom?

    Development. Ever have a character or idea for a character in the Harry Potter verse that you've just wanted to write out and put in a game where you can just develop their lives? [info]accio could be the game for you. The game is all about character development minus the sticky war and Death Eater plots. The war is over, it's 2005 and characters have moved on from that time of chaos. Lord Voldemort is dead and not coming back, Harry Potter is an auror and life as the Wizarding World knows it is back to normal.

This game is about the lives that these characters live after the war. Careers are to be made as well as families and social lives. It's about everything they need to do in society to survive. Some play Quidditch, some work for the Ministry of Magic or run businesses while some just attempt to live off of their parents money.

Still, a group of people who still believe that the Wizarding World should be only open to those of pure blood remain. Whether they've accepted that their hopes of achieving this was lost with Lord Voldemort, or are still hoping a new uprising will begin - one thing is clear: they still have the same beliefs they had years ago. A change should be made.

[info]accio is a social HP game started by a couple of people who are tired of all these games starting up and then dying 2 weeks later. After the last one died barely a week in, we both thought, hey, why not just start our own? So, please check us out! We have lots of ideas for the game and would love anyone to join.

PLOT RULES CHARACTERS PBs APPLICATION

The students who attended Hogwarts throughout the 1970s faced numerous challenges. They found themselves in a world on the brink of war. Upon entering the school, some were taking their first steps into a magical world that was completely foreign to them. Others had lived in it all their lives and were about to leave the safety of Hogwarts to see what the world had in store for them. How will these students react to the world that is constantly changing around them? Who will they become and what roles will they take up as the times shift? It is in their power to answer these questions. We know a little of what they will do outside of Hogwarts. Let's see how they got there.

This is a canon school-oriented Marauders-Era RPG that does recognize Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

It's March of 1972 and the Marauders are in their first year!

There are various familiar names and characters available now, including (but not limited to):

James Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Hestia Jones, Fabian Prewett, Bertha and Albert Jorkins, Marlene McKinnon, Evan Rosier, Caradoc Dearborn, Antonin Dolohov, Ludo and Otto Bagman, Greta Catchlove, Narcissa and Bellatrix Black, Lucius Malfoy, Stubby Boardman, Xenophilius Lovegood, Rita Skeeter, Rodolphus and Rabastan Lestrange, Amycus and Alecto Carrow, and Emmeline Vance!

What if the Prophecy that made Harry Potter the 'Boy who lived' hadn't been given to the Dark Lord? What if a falsified Prophecy had been passed to him instead?

The year is 1995, When Harry, Ron and Hermione return to Hogwarts. A few changes have been made to the staff over the summer, the most noticeable being the new Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor; A Mr. Tom Marvolo Riddle. His new post is widely questioned by the wizarding world; The man has been convicted of murders throughout the seventies, why would Dumbledore hire him to teach young children? Dumbledore simply plays it off saying that he has applied "twice before". That he has not been able to be convicted of anything. Mr. Riddle has, after all, been studying abroad since the 1980's, and is very knowledgeable on his subject.

Most Wanted: Bellatrix Lestrange, Peter Pettigrew, Luna Lovegood, Cho Chang, Ravenclaws and Death Eaters!

"On April 1st 4:30am, the Minister of Magic was found dead in his private chambers. The DMLE has ruled the death a suicide. This is a sad day for the Wizarding World when even it's leader has lost faith in it's people."

1979. Everything has changed. The world has been thrown into disarray, the Ministry are trying to repair their damaged reputation while healing the problems within and everyone is under suspicion.

The Order is still combatting Voldemorts followers as best they can and it has descended into all out dogfighting war. Several people have been taken in battle, one has been found in pieces, another died on the way to St. Mungo's and more people are disappearing every day. Widespread panic has become the norm over the last six months and there is malcontent everywhere.

Nothing is quite right and little is what is seems to be. Then when there is a clandestine admittal to St. Mungo's and the Minister for Magic is found dead, things just keep getting more suspicious...

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has stood the test of time. It's been the home to scores of young witches and wizards preparing them to take their first few steps out in to the real world. Designed to help students cope with their adult lives, things have scarcely changed in the thousands years of its operation. Until now. Severus Snape has taken charge of the school and with him come two notorious Death Eaters, all ready to modify the school in a manner to suit their evil whims. The seventh book gives readers a glimpse into what the young witches and wizards experienced whilst in these hallowed halls, but what really happened? How could things have gone so terribly wrong and how will they all get ready to take that final stand? To overthrow Voldemort and everything he stands for when Harry Ron and Hermione return in summer for that final stand.

A 7th year by-the-book community, Resurrecting the Hallows will replay Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows from the view of the students, reflecting on the moments that would make them stand and fight or run and hide.

Entirely convinced that the protection of Magical blood is essential to the further existence of the Magical populous of the United Kingdom, and inspired by the uncompromising determination to safeguard the future of the United Kingdom's Magical citizens, the Ministry of Magic has unanimously resolved upon the following law, which is promulgated herewith:

By Order of Gawain Robards, the Minister of Magic, all witches and wizards must report immediately to the Ministry of Magic to register their Blood Status. Those failing to comply will be assumed traitors to the British Ministry and promptly arrested, stripped of all titles and accolades, sentenced to ten days in Azkaban and thereafter released under watch by the Magical Blood Protection Department for a time of one year, wherein they will be brought to trial to reassess their loyalties.



THE GAME BEGINS IN APRIL 2008. PLEASE JOIN US.
