Golden Days, an AU HP RPG

Rules | Holds & Cast | Apply | Game Canon


At any given time, there are a dozen projects in the Department of Mysteries that could destroy an entire world. One such project, headed by young researcher Hermione Granger, was nearing completion of Phase One. It dealt with a magical artifact known as The Veil, assumed to be the doorway between life and death. The truth was much more complicated than that, as Hermione and her team had discovered. Not only did the Veil mark a doorway between the living and the dead, it also acted as the gateway to other realities. Hermione was on the cusp of discovering why the Veil worked that way, when a spell gone wrong blasted through the Department, and sent Hermione sailing through the Veil.

When she woke up, she realized immediately that something was wrong. This world was not her own. It was a quick realization, because staring down at her, perfectly alive (if bald), is Albus Dumbledore.

[info]golden_days gives players a unique opportunity to explore the "What Ifs" of a world where Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindlewald realized their dream of a world where Muggles were subservient to Wizards, and Tom Riddle is Headmaster of Hogwarts. Muggleborns are removed from their Muggle families and placed with proper Wizarding folk. Wizarding Great Britain is in the midst of a Golden Age of Wizardry, and there are some who would do anything to protect it.

Game opens Jan 15th, and the first few weeks will be primarily a social game. The aim will be to get a feel for the characters in this setting, and to world build. A major game-wide plot will pick up in February. Prospective players can see this post for more info.

The Reincarnates




Premise | Characters | Holds | Application | Rules | FAQ | Wanted

It's just like any other day, except maybe on this particular day you wake up with a bit of a headache. You think maybe it's just a hangover from that party you went to last night, and then you start hearing a voice inside your head. Are you going crazy? No. Are you imagining things? No. Is there actually a fictional person living inside your head?

Yes.


Reincarnation has been a world-wide phenomenon for centuries. Fictional entities taking up residence in the minds of unsuspecting people; sharing memories, histories, and abilities. It began in secret, but as the number of reincarnates grew in the world it became increasingly hard to remain unnoticed, or to exist together peacefully.

Congratulations, you've just become a reincarnate. Welcome to the war.

It's 2012 and the Reincarnate War has been waged for centuries. Camelot and CORE have been locked in an ongoing battle of ideals, with the neutral agent the Agency trying in vain to keep the peace. Acts of terrorism, fighting in the streets and heavy casualties on both sides have painted the reincarnate community red, until a battle that lasted the night named Camelot the victor. Survivors began to rebuild a community now in shambles, and the magic of reincarnation has shifted with the appearance of fictional territories all over the world.

Even worse, former members of CORE have formed a new terrorist group called the Resistance. Their attacks have been brutal, and among these attacks has come the outing of reincarnates to the public. Some have accepted it with a fascination; others, fearing change and the Resistance, have reacted in outrage towards reincarnates. Mundie governments are no longer cooperating with the Agency for the protection of the community, and a temporary alliance between the Agency and Camelot has been made to weather the storm.

Where will you stand? With the Resistance, aiming for reincarnate superiority? With Camelot, aiming for the destruction of the Resistance? With the Agency, working hard to keep together a crumbling world? Or will you chance it on your own in a world where reality is being literally reshaped below your feet? The choice is yours.

Join the war today!
