    THE OTHER SIDE

    MODSRPGOOC


    Have you ever craved something a little different without ever knowing exactly what it was?


    Well, here at The Other Side, we'd like to indulge you. Enable you, free you.


    We understand the appeal of crack!comms. Getting to create a character all your own with a little dash of canon thrown in. You always wanted the Malfoys to have a daughter. Or maybe you wanted all of the Weasleys to be boys? Or perhaps you were always a sucker for Severus/Lily and were always upset that they never ended up together. That's what crack!comms offer you. Freedom of creativity. We admire that.

    However, on the other side, we understand the appeal of a normal, plot based canon game. While not nearly as unrestricted as a crack!game, it gives you plot to work off of and create a story with. It brings you stability and sometimes it's just nice to sit back and play a canon character you happen to love, no alterations needed, right?

    So, at our game, we decided to dip our fingers in both soups. The Other Side is an Alternative Universe Harry Potter game. In 2001, with Second War alumnus returning for a sudden reunion, they quickly find themselves sucked into another world altogether. Being no common magic, everyone is alarmed and confused. Given housing of their own for the time being, they come to realize that they're not the only ones stuck in such an intensely abrupt situation. With them, huddled all under one Inn's roof, are various alumnus from the First War. Funny thing is, they don't seem to know anymore about what happened then the rest of them.

    This new world is an alternative take on how the war could have gone. With Bellatrix leading the head of a vicious group of assassins called the Moraie, she stands tall as conqueror of Britain with her husband Rodolphus and their adopted son, Neville. It seems as if she had a different take on how to deal with the "Chosen One" the Prophecy spoke of. Surely raising him would be enough to cancel it out? So she hopes. And, where is Albus Dumbledore in all of this, you might ask? Disappearing shortly after the crumbling of the Order and Bellatrix's rise to power in 1981, he has been neither seen nor heard from in twenty years. Aberforth was kind enough to take over the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts after his brother's disappearance and is hoping that with the arrival of all of these new visitors that perhaps reinstating the Order to what it once was will bring Albus back for good.

    BUMPH: A HP POST-WAR AND NEXT GENERATION RP!

    The war that shook the wizarding world to its core is over. Harry Potter defeated the Dark Lord and life went on; Hogwarts reopened its doors. The students that chose to go back to finish their education did not all go willingly, but Headmistress McGonagall was determined to make their last year better than the ones before. However, she was worried; the war had changed them all. So in order for her students not to keep everything bottled up, she came up with a project. She gave all of them journals, and spoke an enchantment to connect them with each other. This way, the students could out their feelings and interact with each other whenever they pleased.

    At the exact same date but twenty-five years later, Headmistress Poe had the same idea; she had heard of the project and thought of it as a great way for her students to interact more outside of their house. So it was with two decades in-between them that Headmistress McGonagall and Headmistress Poe spoke the exact same enchantment and, unbeknownst to them, caused a rift through time.

    Now imagine your surprise when you write in your journal, and your mother from twenty years ago writes back? Of course the next generation students thought this was an opportunity they couldn’t miss. The Headmistresses have no idea how to fix it, and as long as they don’t give away any information that could change the future, absolutely nothing can go wrong! How hard can this be?

    Well, harder then they think, because even though they know who their parents are, the parents have no idea who they are and strong bonds, maybe a little too strong, are formed. How long can the kids keep their identity a secret?

    It’s going to be a BUMPHy ride, that’s for sure.

    And Harry realized, with a shock so huge it seemed to root him to the spot, that Malfoy was crying - actually crying - tears streaming down his pale face into the grimy basin. Malfoy gasped, and Harry was confused as Malfoy looked down into his own empty hand as if he'd never seen it before then gulped and, with a great shudder, looked up into the cracked mirror and saw Harry staring at him over his shoulder.

    BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR

    Wished RP is an AU game that diverges from canon midway through Half-Blood Prince and aims to honor canon while allowing players to craft their own end to the story we all spent years following. Wished is a thread and scene based, Trio-Era game that begins with the Trio's seventh year. Voldemort is still lurking, if weakened, and a final showdown still threatens - but how we get there, and what happens afterward, will look very different.

    Wished is only recently opened, and is an active and friendly community with chances for plot and character development for all characters.

    ONE WISH CHANGES EVERYTHING


    Currently seeking: Ministry Members, Death Eaters & Sympathizers, Younger 'No Name' Hogwarts Students.

    NOW OPEN AND ACTIVE! Opened 1 August 2009.

    Solemnly Sworn
    A Dark Marauder Era RPG

    1978 ...

    No one is safe.


    Frequent attacks and disappearances have rippled through the Wizarding World with no clear connection or reason. Scholars, children and Ministry officials are being picked off at random leaving fear in the wake of destruction and death as Lord Voldemort ascends to power. The Ministry is hard pressed to end the struggle as Death-Eaters watch their every internal move so closely that resistance is nearly futile.

    The world is dividing, and there is little way of escaping it as loyalties shift beneath the feet of the innocent.

    But life goes on amidst the atrocities; people fall in love, get married and try to adapt to a world of war. In the shadows there are some who would fight back. The Order of the Phoenix is hardly more than a fleeting thought of revolution, but as Death-Eaters gain influence amongst the fragile minds within the castle, students have begun taking the fight into their own hands.

    Which side will you choose, and who will succeed?


    Solemnly Sworn finds the Wizarding world in the summer of 1978 following a canon timeline with limited allowances for crack plot. In the last lingering days before Welcoming Feast the Marauders prepare to begin their 7th year in the midst of a progressing war.

    We're an open, friendly community with devoted moderators seeking an easy going atmosphere with emphasis on character development and player-generated plot.

    Set to open at the fulfillment of 10 characters.

    Please refer to the Available Character link below for a list of most wanted characters.

    A seriously cracked out and stupidly active game.

    Canon Future Gen goes back in time to 1996 to find that the stories they grew up hearing from their parents have all been changed. The Blacks run the Ministry of Magic and Voldemort disappeared in 1980. Nothing is the way it's supposed to be.
