It's been called the "Queen of the West," the "City by the Lake," "Paris on the Prairie," "My Kind of Town," and the "Windy City" but to those who live in Chicago and the nine surrounding counties of the Chicagoland area, it's just home. When you live in Chicago, you have to know how to get around and when you visit you have to know where the best of the best in the area is! The news team at NBC Chicago spends their lives bringing viewers the ins and outs of the sparkling city on Lake Michigan.
At NBC Chicago, you'll follow the lives on the on-air teams in the morning, afternoon, and night. They keep you up to date on local and national news, up-to-the-minute traffic and weather reports, up-to-date on local sports teams and give you the latest medical and health news. Of course, no on-air team would work without the dedication from the behind-the-scenes crew that's at-the-ready from dawn until well after midnight.
NBC Chicago RPG is an in-character, thread/log centric game. We're looking for players who are dedicated writers, looking to create their own characters and storylines and interact with other players to create a fun and active environment!

[info]nbc_chicago is now open! We're looking forward to having you at NBC Chicago!

STICKY POST





























Charles Xavier is a man born into a world that isn’t ready for him.

Howard Stark is a man who was born ahead of his time.

Two Futurists – two men of science with visions of a better world the world around them does not seem ready for.

Charles Xavier earned Ph.Ds in genetics, biophysics, psychology, and anthropology, and an M.D. in psychiatry. He is the foremost authority on matters of genetics, mutation, and psionic ability, and is extraordinarily skilled in other areas of science, as well. Arguably the world’s most powerful telepath, Xavier is also a skilled physical combatant.

All of these gifts have been directed toward one purpose – engendering a world, through education, where homo sapiens and homo superior can peacefully co-exist.

In 2007, Xavier opened the doors of his former family home and founded the Xavier School For Gifted Youngsters. Here, young mutants would be taught to explore and control their powers in an environment of acceptance and support, settled in picturesque Westchester County, New York.

Howard Stark is a billionaire, a brilliant inventor, and a genius, years ahead of his time. With Ph.Ds in physics and mechanical engineering, Stark is adept in atomic physics, robotics, artificial intelligence, computer imagery and biochemistry. A ruthless businessman, Stark is also a skilled fighter, whether barehanded, or using any kind of weaponry, from man made to alien technology.

His goal is to make the world and our future a better place to live, through the technological advancements created by the best and brightest minds of today.

To that end, in 2009, Stark founded the Howard Stark School of Tomorrow in Hartford, Connecticut – open to only the best, the brightest, and the most gifted students. While students with Xavier’s significant X-Gene are not excluded, most of the Stark student body consists of meta-humans, and those individuals with super powers.

Here at Marvel Prep we will explore the rivalries and camaraderie’s within and between both of these very unique schools as they come into their own, and begin to shape a future that will be anything but mundane.

And who can forget the joys of teenage hormones?

Join us, and experience the fun for yourself!

GAME BEGINS July 29, 2011. Join today>>>>>

XGENE

The year is 2011 and mutants are just starting to register as existing. They’ve been on the political sidelines for years now, but they’ve been left alone to pursue the type of lives they’ve wanted. Some have become teachers, some have hidden away and others have become known terrorists. Tensions are strong between mutant groups while human allies fight hard to promote mutant awareness over the voices of blind hate and fear.


Xgene offers:

A canon AU world that is politically charged and offers more than just a school environment; canon & player driven plot (with arcs already in play), a friendly writing environment, and active moderators that promote activity and open communication.

Pax Letale: a modern myth game

PAX LETALE: GODS REBORN



In Southern California, there recently opened a new luxury apartment building. Impeccably designed, impossibly convenient, ideally located, Pax Letale is the sort of residential Shangri La where Southern Californians spend all manner of favors and years trying to secure a spot. But Pax doesn't have a waiting list, nor can a place there be bought or sold. The people who find their way to Pax Letale belong there.

Every tenant of Pax is a reincarnated deity whose worshipers are by and large long dead. Once very real, these gods began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. Reborn as mortals, their essences remain, waiting to be awakened. Somehow, sometimes one by one, sometimes in groups or pairs, these creatures of destiny have discovered Pax, and have not been able to resist its pull.

For at Pax Letale, the awakening has begun. As these gods rediscover themselves and each other, the seemingly invisible but ubiquitous management tracks each of them quite closely, and the very building itself seems to have an agenda of its own. And as the gods made humans in their own image - or humans made them in theirs - so will the the behavior of the people of Pax turn as dark as their myths. Blood, strife, sex, petty plots, torture - even murder will wind their ways into Pax Letale.

A lovely place. A peculiar place. A dangerous place.

Available Tenants:


Enki is the Babylonian god of water, crafts, intelligence and creation. Twin of and best friend of Ereshkigal, goddess of the Underworld, he is often seen as a positive foil to his brother Enlil, utilizing his magic and cunning for the good of others; he brings aid to deities and humans alike, serving as a rare masculine nuturer in a chaotic and often oppressively patriarchal pantheon. He will likely have connections to Tiamat, Ereshkigal, and other Sumero-Babylonian deities.

Brighid is the Celtic goddess of the forge, inspiration, compassion and creativity, and a patron goddess of artists, craftsmen, and other creative types. In her mortal life, she may have connections to her parents, her siblings, or any of the Celtic pantheon.

Masauwu is a Hopi deity sometimes called the Skeleton Man, Keeper of Fire, Spirit of Death, and the Master of the Fourth (present) World. He is depicted as a dark-skinned man wearing a mask; sometimes the creature beneath this mask is described as handsome, sometimes as a disfigured monster. Connections to Native American deities and gods and goddesses of death or enlightenment are likely.

ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTS


Don't see a tenant that interests you? Other deities and pantheons are welcome - pick one of the active pantheons in the game, or talk to a mod if there's one you don't see, and make your modern god as you see him/her/it.

Pax Letale has re-opened under new management.
Holds and applications are being accepted for all available pantheons.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to see the members of New Directions as witches and wizards in training? Ever thought about what would happen if the Gleeks ventured into the Forbidden Forest? Want to see them hang at Hogsmeade or shop around Diagon Alley? Well, Do You Believe In Magic is the place for you!

For years, Lady Tromedlov and her legion of Death Eaters have wreaked havoc upon the wizarding community. Terror and death plagued the United States until she was killed by a brave group of wizards and witches. Her legion, sadistic and ruthless, were (and still are) dedicated to her cause. Some have been imprisoned and sent to Azkaban, others have hidden away from the public eye. They wait in the darkness for the return of their leader.

Ten years following the death of the world’s most feared villainess, the wizarding world is finally at peace and a set of students (new and old) are filling the halls of Hogwarts. The glee club members are in their 5th and 6th years at the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, ready to continue their fun-filled year. Amidst relationship drama, diva-offs over solos, and balancing adolescence with magic, will the New Directions manage to make it to Nationals in New York before imploding?

Apply for a gleek and enter the world of wizards, witches, spells and songs. Original characters are welcome and encouraged. The game started on December 1st. There are no holds on canon characters, so get in those applications!

hold on to that feeling.
