X-Project: An X-Men Movieverse RPG on Livejournal

X-PROJECT: AN X-MEN MOVIEVERSE RPG

Name: KAROLINA DEAN

Taste The Rainbow

I know I’ve been a bit of a brat, but believe me, people can change! I’ve had time to grow up and appreciate the joy of having a player. Especially with my powers only half-developed - there’s still so much more for me to learn! And not just about my powers; there’s whole facets of my personality that haven’t been touched on yet! So if you’d like to try your hand at the quintessential New Age mutant lesbian, here I am!


X-Project is an X-Men movieverse RPG on Livejournal. Set after X2, we've been running since May 2003 and use a combination of in-character journals and email/IM logs. There's a number of settings for a range of play, whatever your preference, and while we accept new characters we strongly encourage people to adopt one of our orphans.


Check out the Wiki and the advertising community to see what's available. Readers are highly encouraged! If you're looking for X-Men based entertainment, X-Project welcomes you to read along and enjoy the ride!

Forgotten Gods


"I know how gods begin. We start as dreams, then we walk out of the dreams into the land. We are worshipped and loved, and take power to ourselves. And then one day there's no one left to worship us. And in the end, each little god and goddess takes its last journey back into dreams... and what comes after, not even we know."

-- Neil Gaiman, Brief Lives



Forgotten Gods follows the deities of ancient mythologies, brought to America long ago by explorers or immigrants from their homelands and eventually abandoned or lost from memory. As their worshippers have moved on to new religions, the gods' powers have waned -- for a god, at its most pure essence, is no more than an idea, and an idea is worthless if there is nobody to believe in it. Some have passed, forgotten, from the world, while others have fallen into madness. Some have simply tried to adapt, to make a life for themselves in this place without gods, getting by on what little scraps of worship and belief they can garner. Others are more radical, intent on regaining the power that was once theirs and reviving their followings.

And then there are the New Gods. Gods of cars and computers, television and radio, cities and highways, all those things that modern Americans put their faith in. They are young, at the height of their power. These newcomers are regarded dismissively by some of the old ones, who have seen so many new deities rise and fall in their time; jealously by others, who wish to reclaim the power for their own; and by all with a deep, abiding wariness.

Inspired by the world of Neil Gaiman's American Gods, this game invites players to step into the roles of deities, old and new, to create their own modern mythology.

Seattle; Drop by Drop (Original fantasy/supernatural creature roleplaying site)



Seattle; Drop by Drop is an urban fantasy/supernatural site, set in modern day Seattle. We've got a wide variety of playable races, from witches and necromancers to vampires and lycans, and several completely unique races like the Viri, who are winged humans, the Idimmu, refugees from other dimensions with colorful skin, wings, horns, and more, Shapeshifters, who come in several varieties; animals, reptiles, plants, and even a class who can shift their gender. And we just unveiled our newest race, the Deasura, who you might know by the name 'mermaids', but I can assure you, these are far from the cuddly disney versions you know.

We're a friendly and welcoming site, active but laid back. We've got a lot of great things for members, from a 'Searching For' section to a Player Adoptions section, writing challenges, diaries, and more.
Our plot is basically member driven and open, but we also have monthly, site wide storylines that anyone can get in on.
There's no word count; we have a variety of players who post anywhere from 120-1500 words on average.
And our apps are short! Just basic info like height, age and weight, with a focus on the history.

We believe in letting people have choices, whether it's using a celeb/musician/stock model or a custom made 3d model for their playby, or writing in 1st or 3rd person. We have the Sub Accounts mod, so we let players choose whether to use an accounts-per-player style or an accounts-per-character style linked to a main OOC account.

We're self hosted, but don't let that intimidate you; it's a very user friendly board software, and because it's self hosted, you won't have to worry about downtime or shutdowns. We use BBcode and html,and we are very newbie friendly, and we'll walk you through anything you need help with! We're also very laid back, encouraging members to register and hang around getting to know people rather than demanding applications be posted the minute you join.

So please give us a look, and if you have any questions, please catch us on the cbox!
