maskerade -- opens may 12th

"The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown."


It's 2011 in the New New York City- parallel in every way to its namesake, save for the fact that fictional characters are as alive as any of us and roam the streets undetected. Some of these Fictionals have taken it upon themselves to fight back against the crime and corruption that comes hand in hand with New York; still others see no reason to fight the inevitable; the less moral go as far as to join in the fray. Who will you be and what will you stand for?

Maskerade is a panfandom essences game looking for players who like plot without player-drama. We open May 12th and we’d love if you joined us!

OUR MOST WANTED: Torchwood’s Gwen Cooper seeks the rest of her team. Chuck’s Chuck Bartowski seeks Casey, Morgan, and Bryce Larkin. Indiana Jones seeks Marion Ravenwood. Britt Reid seeks Kato. And the entire game pleads for female characters and comic book muses!
Welcome to the Maskerade.

Musings

Most Wanted: Harry Potter seeks a Ron Weasley (Harry Potter), Dean Winchester seeks a Castiel (Supernatural), Wonder Girl seeks a Wonder Woman (Wonder Woman), Rogue seeks a Gambit (X-Men), Ramona seeks a Gideon (Scott Pilgrim vs. The World), Rorschach seeks a Night Owl (Watchmen), Darcy seeks a Wickham (Pride and Prejudice).


Musings has always existed, a world alongside our world.

In Musings, people live the way we do, eat the same food we do, love the same way we do, and work the same minimum wage jobs we do. The differences? They all have their roots in fictional characters, and they are immortal.

Though they are not the characters themselves, they carry in them the essences of characters from fiction. The sources that they spring from do not exist for them, but they are based on fiction we are familiar with all the same - though no one has ever read a Batman comic, there is a rich young man who uses his money to fight the forces of evil that destroyed his life. Though Moby Dick was never written, a sailor still stalks the bars of a town on the sea, watching, waiting.

Now, a portal has opened between the world of Musings and the mortal world, and the Creations (as they call themselves) have begun crossing over in droves. Now, they have abilities that they did not have in their own world, abilities that they can choose to do with what they will. There is no great prescribed fate for these echoes of fiction, only the destinies they choose to weave for themselves - living and losing on the shores of a new world.

All anyone needs to write a story is a ink and an idea. What's hard is creating a character.

The Storyteller spends his life creating characters. He's one of the few who can Read characters into the world, making them real and in turn changing their source material so that they can peaceably exist in our world. Since 1990 he has been Reading characters at random- from books, comics, movies and songs. If a character has a name, they can be Read. They wind up in Boston, histories just a memory and new lives ahead of them.

OUR MOST WANTED: Nightwing, Robin and Spoiler seek Batman, Batgirl, Jason Todd, Supergirl, and just about everyone else to have ever shown their face in DC Comics; Tony Stark seeks Pepper Potts and Commander Nick Fury; Chance and Guererro of Human Target seek Winston and Ames; the Firefly crew seek Inara and Zoe, Crowley from Good Omens seeks Aziraphale.

The Fountain is a panfandom game with origins in Inkheart and Vertigo's Fables. Any character who has a name and a fictional backstory is available for play- books, movies, television, song essences, folklore, etc. We're a low-key game- that means the hammer doesn't drop if activity slows, judgment isn't passed on creative content, and nobody's going to hate you if you miss a night or two to catch up on sleep. All levels of RP experience are welcome!

The Fountain opens for game-wide plot on April 1st. Applications submitted before that time will be reviewed for pre-play.

Pax Letale

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? Original creations 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.

Holds on all pantheons are now open! A new game-wide event will begin April 18th.
