    Islington Prep is one of the best schools in the Eastern United States, and one of the things that Islington prizes above all else is pride: pride in oneself, pride in one's house, and pride in the school. So the fact that the school is slowly but surely heading towards bankruptcy, while not common knowledge, is cause for alarm for those in the know. Because there's a nasty, insidious little rumor that the dip in funds is due to someone dipping their hand in the school's coffers.

    Aware of the school's financial difficulties, the local Board of Education has offered to buy the school, which sounds like the ideal solution... except that would mean de-privatizing the school, something many of the students (to say nothing of their parents) are vehemently against. After all, they're paying an exorbitant amount of money in part for the exclusivity and security that Islington affords. There are even those who have gone on record stating that letting in scholarship students was enough of an indignity.

    So just what would you do to save your school as you know it? Will you throw yourself into school life harder than ever, hoping that Islington's board will see what a mistake selling the school would be? Or have you heard the rumors, and decided to actively seek the truth about the disappearing money?

    ******

    ‘Islington Prep’ is a completely non-supernatural original game set in a prestigious boarding school in Maryland.

    We're looking for writers who are dedicated to character development and quality writing. We have a bunch of different (IC) events planned, designed to both foster activity and to give characters a chance to compete for their House, because who doesn't like a bit of friendly competition?

    We'd like to see a good mix of both moneyed students (both those against the sale of the school, and those who don't particularly care!) and scholarship students (who are probably pretty tired of the stigma that lingers around scholarships and for whom the sale would mean a dramatic decrease in school fees). Bring on the inevitable conflict between the so-called Haves and Have-Nots!

    So, if this type of game appeals to you then please read the relevant information and join us!

    [info]dethrone!
    It’s been twenty-five years since the end of the Second Wizarding War, and the wizarding world has been drastically changed. After the previously disowned Princess Andromeda ascended the Black Throne in 1998, she led the wizarding world through a reconstruction era that was widely considered an unpopular reign that promised change but didn’t deliver it quickly enough. In 2022, Queen Andromeda passed away quietly in her sleep and her grandson, Prince Teddy, became King Edward II.

    Unbeknownst to the reigning royals, restless purists have gotten together to form a secretive movement devoted to putting Narcissa Malfoy on the throne instead. These shadowy radicals call their plan Salazar’s Purge, and have begun inducting their children into the movement as Knights in the exclusive Order of Salazar. But, for those children and others, the most radical move that King Edward II and Queen Victoire have made in the last year was shutting the doors of Merlin Wizarding Academy — the private wizarding school whose student body was solely composed of the children of royalty and nobility.

    Beginning in the 2023 - 2024 school year, for the first time in history, nobles, royalty, and commoners will be attending a single school, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, to encourage integration and reduce elitism. It seemed like a good idea at the time...
