Desired Citizens of Picturesque:

The Admiral's Legacy still haunts these harbors, and his affluent grandson grew up on stories of his heroics in WWII. Will he ever escape the spectre of the dead man's expectations?

The Fragrance Empress's glamorous perfumes are as timeless as the waves, but her business sense is something even more primeval. Is there any shore she can't conquer?

The Paparazzi is in paradise in Picturesque, where celebrities to embarrass can be found in every café. How far will he go to make a quick buck?

The Florist is the sunshine of the town, matching singles up with fresh bouquets and significant others. Can she keep smiling when big business is draining her profits?


Find yourself in these or any of our other 80 expertly balanced and diverse premades. Or, make your own waves with a simple and quick original character request. Being who you are is easy!

Picturesque has been built with writing in mind. Our application system is tailored to benefit you: rather than submitting a standard application, create a biography that YOU have creative control over. Submit it (even anonymously!) to our talented group of players and receive helpful and polite critiques! We want to provide you with tons of opportunities for critiques throughout play, too. Ever had a writing tip for someone, but didn't say anything because you were afraid they'd be furious? You can say it here in a safe and friendly environment!

We'll never let your ship pass us by in the night! The ooc is always open for chat. Be invested in both a deep and engaging community-wide storyline, and relaxed and open personal storylines. This is rp the way it used to be: plots, characters, and interaction. And better yet, we're brand new, so tons of premades and PBs are still open! No PB bans! No caps! All sexualities welcome!

PROLOGUE

There's an elite boarding school an hour away from San Francisco that's dedicated to the education of children with superpowers: Veritas Academy. Veritas takes these children in and helps them control their gifts - trying to turn them into productive members of society. The lucky few become heroes and villains that are respected and feared the world over, but the rest also have real stories to tell. They are known as businesspeople, lawyers, doctors, academics, nurses, and teachers. They are the people you know, but never stop to truly wonder about.

There are success stories and failures that are known everywhere, but not everyone can be Superman. The majority of the students remain virtually unknown to the majority of the public as they go about their everyday jobs and lead their everyday lives.

The Veritas Alumni Association decided to follow the trend that had been set by Livejournal, Facebook and MySpace, and set up their own social networking site. It became known as something that old students use to keep in touch with friends, watch their enemies and complain about their everyday lives. Yet in between the complaints, arguments and laughs that the students are having, something is beginning to interrupt their lives:

Someone is killing alumni, and no one knows who's going to be next.

WTF?! RP - Not your typical Harry Potter Roleplay
Setting. Rules. Holds. Application.

Game Opened: April 1, 2009! Applications for female characters will be given priority.

WTF?! is a 'Harry Potter' afterlife-based roleplaying game set on its own island, called Sointula. It takes some of the clichés found so often in the fandom and in 'Potter' RPs and revels in them.

Four gods have set this island up so that they can observe peoples' daily lives. Think of it like a game of 'Sims' for the dead. The gods pick and choose who they want on their island for their own reasons and may or may not help people. They do whatever they want, because they can.

Note, though, that there's a lot of weirdness in this game. It's not your typical 'put everybody from the canon together in one place' type of setting. Modern Muggle technology is everywhere, and everyone who shows up on the island will know how to use that modern tech.

The game is quirky but not silly. There will be comedic storylines, and there will be dramatic storylines. It's all up to the players.

This game is looking for creative people who are willing to work within some set parameters and explore the possibilities of the fandom's clichés. Some aspects of your character's life on the island will be set by the gods when that character is accepted. If you're not comfortable with playing things that aren't determined by you, don't bother applying. It's not a crack game, despite it's name and setting, but it's also not 'high drama, all the time.' It needs players who have enough time to give to the game to develop their characters and storylines, not those who apply to every new game that starts up and never put in any quality time on any game because their creativity is spread too thin.

Characters that aren't active, or who only interact with one or two other characters, will be removed. That doesn't mean your character has to thread with every single person in the game, but you have to at least make an effort to have them talk to and interact with characters outside of those they were involved with in the novels. If you enjoy taking the canon characters outside of their comfort zones, exploring new possibilities, and you enjoy quality RP in an unusual setting, this game could be for you.

If you're looking for the same old tired stuff, go elsewhere.

Every character from the 'HP' canon is open for play, wizard, Muggle, or whatever, but be sure to read the Rules, Setting, Posting Guidelines, and Taken Characters & PB Lists, before applying.

I'm a harsh guy when it comes to my rules. If you give me crap, I'll give it back to you. I don't care who you are, or how your popular you are in the fandom, or how many games you're in, or how many times you've played 'X' character in games, or how long you've been RPing, or if you write fanfic that makes people squeal. I don't care.

Once you've read the threads, and you're still interested in applying, here's the Application.

...And reflected in our world.

Peacedale, Vermont. A normal town with normal people. Nothing weird. Totally normal. Uh, except people have the same basic characteristics as comic book characters. Yeah. Like, Batman is an ex-cop or something who is like "lol taking the law into my own handz" and Spiderman...is well he's sort of the same. And like, the character powers aren't really there. YET. YEAH. THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A SECOND.

WE WANT YOU FOR THE LULZ!

frequently asked questions for the concerned american citizen

PREMISE

You wake up to the smell of smoke.


In the year 2008, a virus swept North America. Ever vigilant for a pandemic, citizens boarded up their windows, stockpiled their canned goods, and turned their neighbors in to the CDC. Short wave radios fell off the shelves, evacuation routes were prepared. Gas masks and specialty filtration systems were distributed. Pills were available for those showing early symptoms. Pills that did not work. That were later replaced with cyanide as their active ingredient. For those who were brave enough to put their fingers near a loved one's mouth. The United States, Canada, Mexico, the virus swept down into South America and festered in the heat of the jungle. In some places it burned out. Superstition ruled and saved lives. But nothing stopped the virus.

You wake up to the crackle of dead airwaves.


Three months after the first diagnosed case of Currere Excessum was recorded, NATO approved Great Britain's use of nuclear force against the United States. It was assumed that all organic material would be reduced to ash under the impact. It was assumed that the Quarantine of the Americas would be temporary, at best. Any who survived the blast would be given the highest in humanitarian attention and medical care. The only American emissaries who knew of the plan lay incinerated in Washington. The Quarantine continued. The Americas lay abandoned. Empty.

PROLOGUE

You wake up one morning with a headache, you wonder if you're hung-over but you didn't drink anything last night so that can't be it and after taking a painkiller and heading to work you forget all about it. A few days later you think you back to your childhood and there's a memory that doesn't fit, it doesn't make sense and you try not to think about it because it sets you and edge and makes you feel uncomfortable.

It doesn't stop.

Maybe weeks go by, or maybe it's months, and someone turns up on your doorstep. Maybe they look official, or they're wearing jeans and a T-Shirt, but they introduce themselves and tell you that they're from something called 'The Agency', they sit you down and if you're lucky they'll make you a cup of tea or pour you a drink before explaining it all to you.

The memories are real, but they're someone else's, someone you always thought of as fictional. You're what they call a reincarnate, someone who's been reincarnated from this fictional person, brought into this world with magic that no one yet understands.

They talk about a war that's being fought between two sides of reincarnates, the good and the bad. You're not told what side to pick or that you need to, but you know that a day will come when you and the person you were and are possibly becoming will need to choose.

Cross Academy...


Looking for more Day Class Students and Teachers of all shapes and sizes!

Cross Academy, a distinguished boarding school, is attended by two groups of students: the Day Class and the Night Class. At twilight, when the students of the Day Class return to their dorm, they cross paths with the Night Class on their way to school. The Night Class is an elite group of noble students. But the Day Class does not know the Night Class' dark secret: the Night Class is full of vampires and it is up to the Disciplinary Committee to make sure that the Day Class is protected from this secret.

Cross Academy was created as part of a experiment to see if vampires could bear living with the humans they lived to hunt. The expansive campus accommodates high school and college students alike with two main buildings for classes, four dormitories, and a library on the far end of the campus.

This is a game based on Vampire Knight by Matsuri Hiro. No knowledge of the manga series is required to join! No discrimination! Violence and sex, oh my! Now with weekly challenges and more premades! Apply now!
