Premise
2018 was the year of The Great Failing. The world over, monarchies fell. Governments, law enforcement and militaries and other authorities disbanded. Even the Council of Mages was abolished.

For a few thousand years, as chaos ensued and the world fell further and further into dystopia, a few hopeful people tried unsuccessfully to turn back the tide. Until one day in 3517, a young apprentice mage - hoping to safeguard the future of makind - led as many innocents as she could to a previously undiscovered underground cave and, a year later - in 3518 - attempted to open an outgoing portal to a parallel world, with the intention of bringing them all back when it was safe.

But, due to her youthful inexperience, the mage's spell went wrong and, instead of creating a portal, she created several one way time slips, bringing people from different realities and time periods into her world, and trapping the cave and everyone in it - including those who come through the time slips - inside a time bubble that keeps them in 3518, where they have remained and thrived, ageless, for the last century and a half in real time.

Upon arrival everyone is provided a cellphone, laptop, a small amount of money to get them started so they can find work, and keys to a home where they can set up residence. It is then left in their hands to decide how to live their lives in this new place.

Arcane City is a panfandom, original character friendly game, set on a parallel Earth, that welcomes all fandoms.

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.

X-Mansion

Charles Xavier opened the Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, a school for young mutants to be themselves and learn to control their powers, in 1965. While it had some hard times through the late 60s and 70s, it was re-opened briefly in the 80s before being blown to pieces by an explosion.

Rebuilt by Erik Lensherr and Jean grey and once again re-opened, Charles Xavier continued to take in more students, and hope for a peace between humans and mutants.

20 years after it's second re-opening, a new mutant came to them without entirely understanding their power - at first his power appeared to be similar to Nightwing's, but they learned shortly after that it was anything but that. The student wasn't just able to teleport in the one dimension, but in other's as well.

In attempting to learn control to only teleport in one world, he made the mistake of teleporting between different worlds too many times, and created something of a wormhole. It wasn't something that stayed open all the time, rather at random times. And when it did open, it brought various people through with it.

People from different universes started showing up - doubles of the same person, lookalikes, various species, they all started to show up at the mansion and inhabit the small town of Salem Center.

The Professors are still trying to learn how to teach the student control, and have no idea how to get people back to the proper worlds.


X-Mansion is a panfandom multi-character RPG
Opening soon!

>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?

Charles Xavier: the man, the pacifist, the icon. Founder of the X-Men and advocate for peaceful co-existence, Xavier is well-connected, well-loved, and well-respected.

And that's why he's going to die.

What will happen to all his social progress when the face of such a movement is assassinated in front of millions?

There's nothing you can do to stop it. No way to turn back time and prevent this from occurring. All you get to decide is how you will react and what you will do after.

A Golden Age is about to meet a violent end. It's time for the Age of Marvels.

X-Men: Odyssey


[info]xmo_mods
[info]insane_games

An AU X-Men RPG


Everything changes. The nature of the existence of anything that lives is to change. Humans have been evolving since before they thought to label themselves. And, as happens with evolution, there have been outliers; strange twists to the code. Over the generations these aberrations have been called many things: witches, monsters, legends. Mutants. They have become the thing that goes bump in the night, what hides under the bed, all those stories parents use to keep their children from going into the woods alone.

But they're real.

It is a world where most governments, long scared of the possibilities, do what they can to keep the general population vaccinated to the point where manifestations are rare. Despite the efforts to keep the stories of things that go bump in the night as nothing but stories, there are those who know the truth. They have been brought together under the direction of Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr, and have worked hard to learn about their own powers. Keeping to the shadows, they are slowly but steadily working to change the machinations of the world in order to protect their fellow mutants. They are the X-Men.

They have seen many strange things, but perhaps nothing so strange as a rend in the fabric of dimensions; a rend that will bring all manner of other versions of themselves into their world. Different faces, different voices, different pasts but the same person.

Is a world that cannot even face its own inevitable change ready for the next step? Are a group of heroes doing everything they can to save their race prepared to see their twisted reflections? And can those who have been torn asunder from their worlds ever manage it make it back home?

Howard Stark had a dream to create a school where the best and the brightest could shine. Charles Xavier had a dream where mutants and humans could peacefully coexist. Each opening schools where such dreams could come into fruition, they would forever change the world, as would the students and staff that would find their home there.

After surviving everything from the Mutant Registration Act to a HYDRA invasion of New York City, it seems that things are finally settling down. The X-Men debuted as a team to help bring mutants in need to the Xavier school and also promote peaceful coexistence. The world appears to be at peace, even if it is far from perfect. Even Howard Stark's tragic death earlier this year doesn't seem to have much of an effect on the students of his school or of Xavier's, but their world is about to be rocked again and this time it will need to be avenged.

Now is as good a time as ever to join MARVEL PREP as we begin to transition into a new chapter of the game where the world will need more than the X-Men to save them.

Twisted Island

The playground of the forgotten goddess.



Toto, this doesn't quite seem like Kansas anymore. The island is far from the world you remember. This isn't your home, this isn't even Earth from as far as you can tell. But why? How did you get here? It seems the whims of an unknown and forgotten goddess has decided to make you her plaything, dragging you from your world and timeline and placing you on an inescapable island. Welcome to Twisted Island, where anything can happen and it usually does.

The island changes with the mood of the goddess. It’s her playground and you are one of the very many toys in it. But you’re not alone. There are others stuck on the island just like you and if you’re lucky the goddess didn't just steal you away, but friends and family you know as well. Best idea though? Make friends, powerful friends. Make sure there are people to watch your back because when the island starts to change, you're going to need every little bit of help you can get.

Will you survive, or will you give up and break under the pressure? Apply and become one of the many playthings that the goddess loves to toy with on Twisted Island. Only canon characters are allowed. The game will start May 10, 2015. Go check out the Wanted Characters or Holds page and get your application in!


Game will start on May 10th. APPLY TODAY.

Powers in the `Verse: A Marvel AU in a Firefly-Esque Universe

[info]powers_mods
[info]insane_games

Powers in the 'Verse

The year is 2867, and the human race took to the skies eons ago to flee a failing Earth. Stretched out across planets and star systems, they are tenusously held together by a governmental Alliance whose strings are being pulled by the fearsome Hellfire Club. There are those who dare to stand against them, a Rebellion spearheaded by young warrrior trained by Xavier; there are those who have been irrevocably pulled into the system, appropriated by the Weapon X agency. Mutants, augmented humans and other genetic aberrations fill the skies. What's your brand of freedom?

Powers in the 'Verse is a Marvel AU set in a world loosely based on Joss Whedon's Firefly. Though the X-Men are used for basic structure, most Marvel canon characters are available!

The premise of the game is simple enough: your character is not the gender that they appear as in the comics. No, they didn't suddenly wake up in the wrong body, they were born this way, and live this way. Their very origins have changed--who are they? What does Cyclops' stoicism (okay, grumpiness) look like on a woman? How does Wolverine's animalism manifest? Did Clark Kent live a different life when he came to earth as a baby girl instead?

It's 2014, earth. Human rights are on the rise at the demands of the citizens, but it is far from a time of peace and equality. The economy isn't doing great and many areas are experiencing political tension, if not worse. Crime is at an all time high, and for years, heroes have donned their costumes in order to try to give back, whatever their personal motives. Their actions make headlines, international news, and inspire children to dream of doing good, other powered (or not) individuals to take up the job. Unfortunately, it's also inspiring a few to become supervillains.

The game is meant to be a fun exploration into characters we know and love. We seek to be an open, accepting environment to the players and their characters, where everyone can really enjoy themselves. This world is full of the heroes and villains (and civilians) that you're familiar with, they just happen to be genderswapped--and that's where the fun is!

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 currently kicking off a plotline that will resolve some of the issues faced by our heroes and create a new status quo. If you're looking for plot-centered RP with a small and dedicated group of writers, then this is the game for you.

Most wanted characters include (but are not limited to!): Lex Luthor from Smallville, Any DC comics (or movieverse, TV, etc) characters, especially: Green Arrow, Nightwing, Robin, Huntress, etc. Any Marvel Comicsverse or Movieverse characters, particularly Charles Xavier and Nick Fury, and Kevin, Bobby, Jo, Ellen, and John Winchester from Supernatural, as well as Buffyverse characters including (but not limited to) Angel, Cordelia and Gunn.

The Xavier Institute for Higher Learning is a prestigious private school that gains students following personal visits from the Headmaster or the staff. Its doors opened in 1979 and has since then been a beacon of educational inspiration for those students who are shown to be exceptionally…gifted.

After a tragic accident that took the lives of both Charles Xavier and Jean Grey, Scott Summers and Erik Lehnsherr take over as Headmaster and run the school in his stead. The will asked for just that one thing: that the school continue to run and protect those who needed it and to help those that could not help themselves.

Erik has run the school as the Headmaster ever since, assisting in the creation of the X-Men teams (so named in deference to their fallen leader) who protect mutants from those who would seek to harm them as well as protecting those who cannot protect themselves from threats both mutant and non-mutant. Though not all is as it seems.

Erik has a plan of his own and only those closest to him know of it and this school, and its students - some of whom are from broken homes and ripe for manipulating and twisting - are all just pawns on the grand chess board of Erik's end game.




The Institute game is a non-movie compliant, open world X-Men game in an AU setting where you have a number of factions that your character can join or move between. They can be an independent free spirit that works within the scope of the school just doing their own thing, an adult X-Man who tries to save the world and help out in their own little way or an adult who just wants to teach and help those kids. They could be a member of the Hellfire Club under the unscrupulous Sebastian Shaw, a student just trying to get by or a member of Magneto's hand-picked, subversive team. The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants doesn't exist - overtly - in this game. Yet

If nothing felt particularly resolved when the last Chitauri warrior fell still after the battle for New York, one thing was clear. The world had changed. Super-powered individuals were no longer the remnants of half-believed legend, written off as freak accidents, or simply the pet project of self-impressed billionaires. They became real--a valid topic for political and social debate. For every whole-hearted supporter donning a 'Tony Stark' haircut, there was at least one person who felt it was simply the next phase of vigilante justice (and that it should be terribly illegal). The visibility of the Avengers spurred the growth of more costumed super people--villains and heroes and the more morally muddy all amongst their ranks. If anything was clear, it was that the world had just become more complicated--and out of the shadows would come forces intent on ensuring that not every victory would feel so decisive.

Gravity: Chapter 1 is a Marvel role play group psl set in the Cinematic Universe, canon through the end of The Avengers. The game has a lifespan of between six to nine months with a plan in place for continuation. Our hope is to provide an active and interactive community for Marvel muses that will make the community as dynamic as Marvel films and comics.
