As the new millennium dawns, Wizarding England is a bleak place. A failing economy and skyrocketing unemployment has most of the citizens living hand-to-mouth, strict laws seperate the muggleborns from the rest of society, and harsh punishments are visited on anyone who steps out of line. Violence and riots spring up, only to be met with force from the Ministry. The Ministry keeps its people under control by fostering a fear of muggles, leading the population to believe that muggles are one step away from discovering them, and that they would all be rounded up and killed if that happened. Unknown to most of the country, Voldemort and his Knights of Walpurgis run the government, ordering everything to suit their own ends. Though the population believes Voldemort to be dead (twice), he dictates everything, patient in his immortality and confident that his hiding is only temporary. At every turn, the Order tries to thwart them, but the Knights rarely use brute force anymore. The subtle weapons of propaganda and policy prove to be a deadly force, but the Order isn't beaten yet. They know Voldemort's weakness: the horcruxes. But they have to work fast. Because Voldemort has a new plan...

The year is 1957. The government has just mandated country-wide integration at all schools - which the President is enforcing with military troops. In Lima, Ohio, this means that Asian, Latino, and Black students at the Paul Lawrence Dunbar High School in Lima Heights are being integrated into previously-White William McKinley High School, a project that is jointly led by Spanish teacher Ms. Holly Holliday and principal Mr. William Schuester. Tensions are running high, to the point where some parents are contemplating enrolling their white sons in the private all-boys school, Dalton Academy, which thus far is successfully avoiding integration.

The McKinley glee club, run by Ms. April Rhodes, serves as a safe haven at the school. However, not every familiar Glee character will choose to be in the club, for many will be put off by the teacher’s reputation as a loose woman. Other familiar faces include Ms. Shannon Beiste, health and physical education teacher, Mr. Ken Tanaka, football coach, Ms. Emma Pillsbury, school guidance counselor, Mrs. Terri Schuester, nurse, and Sue Sylvester, esq., head of the school’s nationally-ranked cheerleading program.

Jukebox Glee will be an AU game, with all student characters from the show available for play. Adults will be NPCs and original characters are welcome. In order to maintain appropriate and safe conduct, explicit roleplaying of extreme situations of prejudice, stereotyping, or hate-related crimes will not be tolerated in the main community, in the OOC community, or in personal character journals.
