Schism: Post-War Harry Potter RPG

[info]schism_mod
[info]insane_games

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Prejudices still run high. Purebloods and Muggleborns tend toward a mutual distrust at best and outright hatred at worst.

In response to the swinging pendulum, many Muggleborns have banded together, forming the political action group "Mudblood and Proud". They have made their voices heard and the cogs in the Ministry have begun their slow grind toward change. Yet, the dethroned will always rebel, and a new faction is on the horizon with its own agenda: preserve Pureblood Society at all costs. This is no Death Eater fan club, however, and many of those who would have followed the Dark Lord are not welcome.

Society is not built on honesty, but on millions of little lies that make life comfortable, polite. Now those innocent lies are threatened both by truths as well as vicious fabrications. Pureblood society is shaken, and there is a growing acceptance of Muggle culture. With the self-proclaimed guardians of Wizarding Culture heading towards disenfranchisement and a rising class of Muggle-raised activists coming into their own, what does the future hold?


Most wanted includes Blaise Zabini, Weasleys (in particular George!), Hermione Granger, Susan Bones, Gregory Goyle, Penelope Clearwater, Neville Longbottom, Harry Potter and more!
OCs are welcome.

Men of Marvel

[info]menmod
[info]insane_games
House of M transformed the Marvel Universe forever; even when it was undone, things never went back exactly the same way as before. Of course, that's what happened to Earth-616. Over on Earth-69, things went a little differently. Instead of "No more mutants," the fateful words that changed the universe were "No more women."

The magic took that rather literally, turning every woman into a man and erasing everyone's memory that something strange had happened. The men of the world just went right along doing what they'd always done: getting drunk, having sex, starting fights, and living out their lives day after day. The whole world was one big locker room.

Eventually, however, they got fed up with mutants and metahumans. After a bloody conflict, the humans banished them to an island nation to keep the peace. When they did, they wound up creating the best set-up for long days and nights of fun and frolicking in a tropical paradise the world had ever seen.

The dark times are upon the human race in this world. The prophecy has started to take shape. Newcomers from all realities are landing in our world and only time will tell how they will change our fate. These strange visitors, these 'chosen ones' are figures from what was left of our pop culture-they are from books and movies, television and comics. We once thought they were fictional but have now realized that they simply existed in another place and another time from our reality.

Now it is up to them to decide whether they will help us or send us to our doom.


Reality Crisis is a multi-fandom game accepting most action/adventure, horror, fantasy, and sci-fi fandoms. We are an active, friendly game and we would love to have a few more characters to add to our roster. We regularly run challenges and gamewide plots to keep things moving and to keep mixing up the players and characters, and we also have a much larger gamewide plot/plan in place that's slowly unfolding.

Most wanted characters include (but are not limited to!): Lex Luthor from Smallville, Any DC comics (or movieverse, TV, etc) characters, especially: Nightwing, Robin, Huntress, etc. Any Marvel Comicsverse or Movieverse characters, particularly Charles Xavier and Nick Fury.

Spider-Man Villains -> We have a Spider-Man & MJ Watson in game, plus a few villains, but a Spider-Man villain would be lots of fun to try and round out the crew! Green Goblin is requested by MJ!

New Alliance is a world where the DC and Marvel Universes have always coexisted, perfectly intermingled. Their characters have either known each other before, or will meet in the future, as naturally as in any other game. Characters may be related, have gone to school together, or have any sort of history their players agree upon. This is not the Marvel Universe, nor the DC Universe – it is our own: the New Alliance Universe.

The year is 2029—more than thirty years since Voldemort was vanquished. The Wizarding World saw years of rebuilding after the destruction it suffered during the war, but now the world is finally booming.

Nowhere is this more apparent than in Diagon Alley, deep in the heart of London, hidden from Muggle view. Wealthy investors have brought in a new way of living in Diagon Alley, no longer stuck in a time of old but rather a virtual mecca for urban witches and wizards. The investors have brought Wizarding London a new beginning with renovating flats, installing theaters and opening brand new stores. Diagon Alley has even become ground zero for higher learning with the implementation of Monarda University for Higher Magical Learning.

Join the new generation of
URBANITES living, working, learning and thriving in Diagon Alley.

Want something a little different? Looking for an AU game? A marauder-era game? A trio-era game? A game where you can play an evil Death Eater without people assuming that you are a horrible person in real life? A game where you can play an Order member with some actual opposition in-game? A game with talented players, an abundance of plot, and a promise not to die? ;-) Chronic Resurrection is a dark Harry Potter game set in 1981 and 2002 exploring the AU that arises following the inadvertent time-travel of four key individuals from 2002.

Panem et Circenses: An AU Hunger Games RPG

[info]panem_mods
[info]insane_games
  The third Quarter Quell is rapidly approaching, and the Gamemakers are prepared to make it the most interesting one yet. The nation of Panem is a powder keg ready to ignite; tensions are mounting throughout the nation as citizens wait to see what rule change will be introduced for this momentous occasion. And what transpires will serve as the spark that will set an already restless nation ablaze.
  Some remain loyal to the Capitol, not wanting their style of life to change, while others are prepared to take up arms and fight to the death. This is the Games on a whole new level with a nation of tributes and alliances and betrayals at every corner where the prize is the fate of a nation.
  Let the 75th Hunger Games begin, and, as always, may the odds be ever in your favor.

  Panem et Circenses is an AU Hunger Games RPG that takes place between The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. Peeta and Katniss are both Victors of different Games – the 73rd and 74th respectively. Its purpose is to allow for players to explore the world of Panem and the characters without having to actually play out the Games themselves. Instead, it will center around a rebellion led by District 13 against the Capitol in the wake of the Quarter Quell.

  Panem et Circenses is accepting both canon and original characters.

This is War: a 7th year AU HP Game


On July 27, 1997, the Order of the Phoenix came to 4 Privet Drive to move Harry Potter to an Order safe house, the Burrow.

He Who Must Not Be Named had a little extra luck on his side, because when he guessed which Harry was the real one, he guessed right. Mad-Eye Moody survived, Hagrid was killed, and Harry was badly injured. When the Ministry fell, he was apprehended in St. Mungo's and the Order prevented from getting to him. By the time he was well enough to be moved, it was November, and Voldemort had one hell of a head start.

Can the Trio still win? Will the Order of the Phoenix and Dumbledore's Army withstand the pressure of the new regime? What happens now? That's up to the people.

This is War is a plot-driven AU Harry Potter roleplaying game that relies heavily on player input and character activity.

The Reincarnates

Premise | Characters | Holds | Application | Rules | FAQ | Wanted

It's just like any other day, except maybe on this particular day you wake up with a bit of a headache. You get up, you brush your teeth, you go to work. Or maybe you're still in bed, sleeping off that hangover from the party you went to last night. Then you start hearing a voice inside your head that's not yours. Are you going crazy? No. Are you imagining things? No. Is there actually a fictional person living inside your head?

Yes.


Reincarnation has been a world-wide phenomenon for centuries. Fictional entities taking up residence in the minds of unsuspecting people, sharing memories, histories, talents, hardships. It began in secret, but as the number of reincarnates steadily grew the reincarnate world became a community that was increasingly hard to remain unnoticed by the rest of the world or to exist together peacefully.

Congratulations, you've just become a reincarnate. Welcome to the war.


It's the year 2011, but the Reincarnate War has been waged for centuries. The two warring sides, most recently going by the names Camelot and CORE, have been locked in a never ending fight over ideals, and the reincarnate community's neutral agent known as the Agency has been trying in vain to keep the peace. Many battles have been fought, with heavy casualties on both sides. Governments overthrown, fighting in the streets and countless loved ones lost. On April 2nd they thought the war was over. In a battle that lasted the night, Camelot took down CORE in a single swoop, those that survived were put in prison, and the reincarnate community began to rebuild. The worst was over. Or so they thought.

The reincarnate community is in shambles, torn apart by centuries of warfare. The magic that brings reincarnates into the world has shifted with the supposed end of the reincarnate war. It would seem that it's no longer set on bringing about destruction, instead it's reshaping reality as you know it. Cities, planets, everywhere that reincarnates have ever been connected to are beginning to appear in the real world and everyone is scrambling to find the place that they once called home

It's not as easy as that though. CORE prisoners have escaped and are now calling themselves the Resistance. They're out for revenge as well as territories to claim, and Camelot is ready for another fight.


Join the war today!

They had been granted an opportunity to put right everything that had gone wrong. Can Harry save his parents? Can Draco fix it so he is never asked to kill Dumbledore? Can Peter escape the lure of the Death Eaters? Can Severus keep Lily safe? Or could they possibly make everything worse?

Dark time-travel game Chronic Ressurection has had a recent influx of good guys, particularly in trio era, and we are in dire need of some bad, evil, shady, dodgy, immoral, amoral, bitchy, mean, vindictive, violent, or ambiguous types to bring the balance back to the dark side. Death Eaters, Slytherins, or just unsavoury characters are all welcomed and loved. We're an awesome game and we are absolutely not going to die - we're stubborn as can be, you see, and the current mods met on the game and got married, so have rather an attachment to the old place. We're set in 1980 and 2001 exploring the AU that arises following the inadvertent time-travel of four key individuals from 2001. 1980 is just a little AU, whilst 2001 is very AU because Harry got distracted by time travel and Voldemort won. The players are all friendly and there are no cliques. There's a plot post every week, but interpersonal plots are also highly encouraged. We have the easiest application process in the world and the most flexible activity requirements ever. We love IC drama and angst and dark nastiness, because it's fun. Come take a look and feel free to ask questions!

Ok, who moved the Whomping Willow?


Just before the end-of-year festivities in their sixth year, the Marauders set into motion a series of events that would set the tone for the following year. While they claim it was purely incidental, the students of Hogwarts are pretty sure that what happened last year was definitely intentional. After all, it was only the Slytherin house that was affected by the charmed bubbles in the baths that turned their skin green and hair silver. Intentional or not, that day began the soon-to-be infamous Prank Wars.

September 1, 1977. The first day of school, the Marauders' final year. The Slytherins are prepared to launch their first attack of the new school year's Prank Wars at the Marauders and the Gryffindor house and the Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws are forming their own allegiances.

Which side will you be on when the food starts flying across the Great Hall?

Pranksters is an AU MWPP roleplaying game set at Hogwarts in 1977. While Voldemort exists, the war outside of the school is not a main focus of the game. Most canon characters are currently open for play.

Ye Gods!


[info]yegods_mods
[info]insane_games




In centuries past, mortals believed in superstition. They believed in gods. They believed in other worlds. They believed in magic. The mist between the world of mortals and the realm of the gods was thinner then, and it was clearer where they overlapped. As human civilization evolved, and fewer and fewer people chose to believe in the other world at all, the thicker the mist grew, and the more separated the parallel worlds became. Mortals were blessed (and cursed) to see only what they wanted to see. They went about their business and fought their wars unable to see that the gods were still very much alive and still pulling the strings as they had done since the beginning of time.

Now, the gods use the children they have with mortals - their demi-gods - as chess pieces in their intrigues. This is where you enter. You are a mortal with a divine parent. You're not a god, but you are an important tool in their agendas. You may be that piece that stands between lightness, darkness, and utter chaos. What role will you play in this divine struggle?

[info]yegods is a modern fantasy roleplaying game inspired by White Wolf's Scion setting and Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series.

Game opens September 1st!
