PREMISE
After Doctor Strange used the Eye of Agamotto to save Earth from being overtaken by the Dark Dimension, everything seemed back to normal. But the warnings against manipulating time are coming back to haunt him: "Temporal manipulations create branches in time and unstable dimensional openings." No one realized that time had already branched off...not until dimensional openings cause people to suddenly and inexplicably arrive in New York City. Those that died before are now coming back to life. Threats of the past can take form again. The bill comes due. Always. And the lives of Earth's mightiest heroes are about to get a lot more complicated...

AVENGERS is a MCU game based in New York City that will explore the entire MCU universe. There will be damage. Future movies and TV series will be relevant. First time RPers welcome. Journal Codes available. 18+ only, Rated M for Mature.

Two Minutes to Midnight

Two Minutes to Midnight
A comic-inspired real-world AU
PREMISE
On the 25th of January, 2018, the Science and Security Board of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists set the Doomsday Clock to two minutes to midnight. While typically focusing on nuclear risk, climate change, and emerging technologies, the Bulletin was forced to take growing metahuman policies into consideration which culminated in a response that the world is heading even more rapidly toward their own man-made doomsday.

This game expands on the idea of this imminent danger by placing superhuman characters in a world where the tide of metahuman panic is at an all-time high.

There are no Avengers or Justice League to save us. Only the everyday citizens who choose to stand up and fight against tick-tock of the doomsday clock.

You awake on a pristine beach, the clear blue water lapping at your toes. You can't remember how you got here, but you feel good. The sun is warm and pleasant, it's not too hot, and the sound of birds fills the air. A breeze from the sea ruffles the leaves of the trees. The gentle lapping of the waves on the shore is steady and calm.

As you rise, you discover that you are on an island. It's hard to say where the island is, but you can tell by the position of the sun (and the stars at night) that you're at a rather low latitude, and on Earth. It's not tiny, but it's not large, either. You could walk the perimeter of it in a couple of hours if you walked quickly. It's lush, green, and the middle part rises above you, full of thick undergrowth and undoubtedly a good number of surprises.

Not long after, a young woman approaches you. Or at least, she appears to be young. It's hard to say exactly how old she is, or exactly what she is, but she is beautiful beyond measure, with olive skin, black hair, and almond shaped eyes. She tells you that her name is Ava, and that she is the protector of this island. She tells you that she has brought you here, and that while you may not leave, she will do her best to see that you are as happy as possible. Her answers are vague and often incomplete, but there is no sense of danger. She is not here to hurt you. She does, however, exude a power beyond anything you have ever experienced...

[info]maroonedrpg is an 18+ panfandom RPG that takes place on a deserted island watched over by a strong and undefined supernatural force. It is a survival game, but in the best sense - this is not a place where survival will be difficult. The land is lush and full of things to eat and drink. It is also a game that encourages character development. While there may be an occasional gamewide plot, the game will focus more on examining your characters and finding their strengths and weakness when they find themselves tested by a new way of life.

This game is new and there are an infinite number of characters available! The game will open either on September 1, or when we have 5 players, whichever comes first!

TAMRIEL

an elder scrolls panfandom rpg

Tamriel is dangerous. If the flora and fauna don't kill you first, the cutthroat bandits or harsh weather might. Come explore Skyrim and perhaps even the neighboring regions of Cyrodiil and Solstheim. Have a taste of the hunter-gatherer lifestyle as you pick snowberries from Winterhold or enjoy a well-earned steak from a recent hunt. Perhaps your mettle will even win you a place among Skyrim's warrior nobles or a new family among the Companions of Jorrvaskr. If you die, may you die with a sword in your hand.

THE SHADOW BEFORE
On the surface, Point Pleasant, Maine certainly appears to be the kind of idyllic coastal town that every tourist would want to flock to during the warm summer months. It has that welcoming small town atmosphere that draws you in and makes you feel as though you belong. Locals will be sure to point out its gorgeous harbor, cozy little shops, the pollution free night skies, clear and full of stars... not to mention its disturbing fascinating history.

What the locals won't tell you is that for the past three hundred and twenty three years, Point Pleasant has unwittingly served as a nexus for the supernatural, the metaphysical, the evil and the damned. There are plenty who are dismissive of its history. After all, every town has a run of bad luck here and there. So what if Point Pleasant has an unusually high number of missing persons... strange and unexplainable deaths happen. That? That wasn't a monster you saw... monsters aren't real. Right?

Oh, everyone wants to talk about what's happening in their town, and yet no one really wants to talk about it. They're content with going on with their lives, getting through school, making another buck, getting through the day in one piece. But what they don't know is that ignoring the evil won't make it go away. Those who ignore the past are doomed to repeat it, isn't that what they say? Simply put, whatever has been drawing the darkness into their small town is only getting started, and nobody is safe.

The Shadow Before is an original, horror based game set in the fictional town of Point Pleasant, Maine. This game is inspired by various elements of horror and the supernatural, and will include both game wide plots as well as individual arcs. Warning: Mature and dark themes lie ahead.

Legacy


After discovering the means for viable space flight humans began to leave the Earth. Whether it was to seek personal fulfillment or fortune many joined the intergalactic stage. It was soon apparent that they were not alone.

In the decades that followed, about 50 years, humanity started to make its mark as other species made theirs. For some this meant great achievements in science, efforts to make further human society and legitimate business enterprises. For others it meant finding new and interesting places and people to offer less salubrious services to.

Once it was an intergalactic shipping and trading freighter, but now the Phoenix is a waystation in orbit around a desolate planet on the edge of a lawless zone. Over the generations it has changed hands many times and has been added to and modified as needed to suit the needs of those living within its walls. The size of a city, it holds numerous docking bays, living areas, markets, clubs and more. It has become a place where anyone can get damn near anything. Humans are here too now. For some it is a stop on the way to somewhere else or a place where they can get what they need. Others have insinuated themselves in the cutthroat world as surely as they did on earth.

Legacy is an 18+, OC-only, sci-fi themed role-playing community. We're very excited to meet all of you writers who are ready to create and explore new peoples and worlds!

Would you believe that all the gods that people have ever imagined are still with us today?


Across America, just beneath the world we see, exists another world. One full of gods and monsters, of immortals and saints and demons. They walk among us every day and although we don't know it, our every thought fuels their lives.

Nevermore is a well-established, long-running game set in the world of American Gods. This particular game has been kicking around IJ in one form or another for years - at the moment our player base is quite small and so we're looking for fresh blood to come join us.

New Eden - a mysterious island in the Pacific, covered by a dome. A fantasy retro-futuristic hidden city beneath a seemingly abandoned theme park.

>FRONTLINES
Ten years ago, a team of archaeologists and scientists unearthed an ancient artifact from beneath the cradle of civilization. It unlocked the superhuman potential in a small percentage of the human population, and these new beings were called atavists. The US government founded Project: Ascension to study, understand, and train these atavists in secret. But not all agreed with their methods. A schism shattered the foundation of the Project, and those rebels formed the Movement for Atavist Liberation, bent on subverting the government and freeing atavists from military control.

Choose a side. Build a future. Will you find your power?

Lost Codices: An OC Dragon Age RP


[info]codexmods
[info]insane_games

lost codices
an auish dragon age rp

A blight upon the land. Darkspawn have risen and the archdemon brings plague and death wherever he lands.

The year is 3:24 Towers. For fourteen years, the third Blight has ravaged Thedas while Tevinter and Orlais war with each other. They have provided aid to Nevarra, a country desperately fighting to keep the Blight from consuming them. But their help comes with a price, and it seems as though Nevarra is doomed to fall, either to the Blight or to the ambitions of their more powerful neighbors.
LOST CODICES is an original character roleplaying game set in the Dragon Age universe during the third Blight in the port city of Cumberland. No knowledge of the Dragon Age universe is needed. We offer your typical slice of life and an over-arching plot, complete with a healthy dose of politics and saving the world from the archdemon Toth. Come and shape the future of Nevarra or become the hero that stops the Blight.

We're a small, moderately active community. We'd love to add some new players! This game does require at least one log a month for AC.

Veiled World


The supernatural is all around us, vampires and werewolves live next door to you and to be honest, your senator's likely a vampire, incubi and merfolk serve you coffee in your favourite coffee shop . That alternative looking woman that runs the herbal shop down the road? She's a sixth generation witch. The bank manager that sort of weirded you out but looked excited when you handed over your family jewels to put in a safety deposit box? Yeah... good luck getting that back: you just handed grandma's gold to a dragon.

The Supernatural Government kept peace for years, brokering a tentative peace between all of the supernatural races and making sure that they stayed out of the light, as it were, out of sight. Ten years ago, a number of the elected officials were executed, assassinated by an unknown party. The peace that had been on a knife's edge was shattered and now the supernatural world is at war within itself. It's an underground war, but a war all the same.

Welcome to the war.
Can you survive?
