Of course I have a secret identity. I don't know a single superhero without one. I mean, who wants the pressure of being super all the time?

The year is 2108, exactly 100 years in the future. Thirty years ago, people with superpowers started appearing across the globe, and not long after that, masked and caped Super Heroes started patrolling the cities, protecting justice and the innocent and effectively making all the everyday heroes almost obsolete. Lately, the government has been urging those with super powers to relocate to a new city designed especially for them. Located underground, the city (called "Haven") is massive and contains everything you could ever want. The only catch is that anyone inside the city is required to report once a week for testing - so the government's scientists can figure out what distinguishes someone with superpowers from the rest of the world. But don't worry, the tests are "harmless"! In fact, they even pay you for your time, right along with giving you free housing and a free car. What do you have to lose? But, of course, everyone knows the old adage. If it sounds too good to be true...

[info]cityofheroes is a game based around former super heroes who have all relocated to one, fictional city. We're focused on character interaction and development through focusing on scenes and threading, with a minimal focus on journals and other forms of communication. We plan to offer prompts for character reactions as well as a place with no cliques and no OOC drama. This game is about writing and having fun!

Hexed Private is a semi-private community for Harry Potter storylines with no set mods, that is AU to Deathly Hallows in that all deaths from that book (except for Voldemort) are null and void, and those characters are up for grabs. Sirius and Regulus are reviveable as well. The year is 2001, the date will be in real time (for example: 25 January, 2008 in real time will be 25 January, 2001 in game).

There are a few simple guidelines, which (along with the taken character list) can be found here. A character profile is necessary in lieu of an application, but there's no set format (so long as it covers the basics, it's fine).

We are especially looking for Draco Malfoy, Ron Weasley, Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and many others. Lots of characters are free!

It seems Torchwood Four, headed by one Major Charlie Sheppard, had a minor malfunction involving Cardiff's rift. In fact, Torchwood Four is located right near Torchwood Three, or at least it was until it and its team got pulled into another universe. Which is where Lucian Devereaux comes in. It seems that he got a hold of a Time Agent's vortex manipulator in the far future and has been using it at his own pleasure. Well, until it backfired and he was sent to the present and made the rift flux, sucking Torchwood Four into it. Luckily, Major Sheppard wasn't there at the time.

Now as for Lucian, he'd been jumping through time randomly and unwillingly as he tried to fix the vortex manipulator. During this time he realized that he'd jump from the present in Cardiff to some different point in time and then back. Along the way, he managed to bring back people with him who shouldn't be during that time, and that caused the rift to go haywire, also bringing people to the present that shouldn't be there: those that are dead, those who aren't born yet, and those in other dimensions. And so, Torchwood realized they needed to work extra hard to try and stop this and thus re-established Torchwood Four, somehow convincing Charlie to head it once more. And that is where we begin...

Ever at the ready is a Torchwood/Doctor Who RP that allows for any character from either series (old and new) to be incorporated, as well as original characters! It takes place around the start of season two. We've only just started and we're looking for a majority of the canon cast still, including The Doctor (any of them) and most of Torchwood Three. We're also looking for bad guys and aliens to be hunted down, as well as people to fill up the other Torchwood Teams. If you think you're ready, then we're ready to have you join the team!

We're Currently Looking for: CAPTAIN JACK HARKNESS, OWEN, TOSHIKO, people for the Torchwood Teams, Civilians, Aliens, Bad Guys, other Canon characters and more!

AFTER THE RISING /// THE HISTORY /// THE GAME /// THE RULES /// THE DISEASE /// THE PRISON /// FAQ /// THE CAST LIST /// TAKEN/HELD PB‘S /// THE APPLICATION

"The Rising." That's how it came to be known eventually, the day the dead began to rise from their graves and walk once more.

It began innocently enough. Just a handful of cases located randomly across the country, of the recently deceased coming back to life. At first it was blamed on human error, the doctors must have made a mistake, what other explanation could there be? But it wasn't a mistake and it soon became clear that despite the fact that they were walking around, the recently deceased were still just that... deceased.

Essentially harmless if somewhat disturbing to see, but with no real sentience and no other signs of life to speak of the walking dead (now known as "The Risen") were placed in quarantine and subjected to procedure after procedure from teams of doctors and scientists determined to find an explanation for the phenomena. No explanation was ever found and the number of walking dead slowly increased.

Less than one month after the first reported case, the disease mutated.

A careless lab technician approaching the end of his shift and thinking more about his plans for the evening than of safety was accidentally bitten while taking a saliva sample from one of the risen. Afraid of being quarantined himself he hid his injury from his superiors and went home. He should have known something was wrong when he started feeling dizzy but he told himself he was just overworked and that he just needed to relax. He thought he'd be fine by morning. He was wrong.

By morning he was dead. Walking dead but different from the others. Self aware, though only minimally, he was governed by a hunger that could only be sated by the taste of human flesh. He attacked everyone he saw, his girlfriend, his neighbours, the mail man, the bus driver, taking a bite from each of them before being fought off. He was apprehended of course and eventually subdued but not before managing to inflict bites on several of the arresting officers.

Within 24 hours everyone who had been bitten had also become walking dead, consumed with the same hunger for flesh, and in little more than a week, the whole town had been infected. With no one left to even try and contain the contagion, it spread quickly to the next town and then the next, spreading right across the country and then the globe like a wild fire and in just a few weeks the number of walking dead was equal to the number of living... and rising.

That was a year ago. All that remains of humanity now are the small and remote pockets of survivors that live cut off from the rest of the world in secured compounds, ever watchful of the walking dead that surround them on all sides and hoping desperately that the nightmare will eventually end.

This is the story of one such group of survivors.

The war is over.
Harry Potter remains the first Master of the Three Deathly Hallows.
But not the true master, since one has been lost. And then forgotten.

The year is 2008. Harry Potter has been Head of the Auror Department at the Ministry of Magic for a year now. People are settling down, starting families, and for once in a long time the Wizarding World has been at peace.

But something so important that has been released cannot stay forgotten for long.

On December 21st 2007, a 4th yeah Gryffindor boy was serving his last detention before going home for the Christmas Holidays. He was near the outer edge of the Forbidden Forest collecting herbs for the Potions storage room that he'd managed to ruin with his spoiled potion. He was kicking through the snow near the edge of tree by the clearing when he found two peculiar stones. It was the darkness in colour and the strange way the light from his wand reflected it... He quickly stored them in his pocket when he heard Hagrid calling him and the stones were soon forgotten again.

The next day most of the students had left Hogwarts and gone home. It was by an extreme coincidence that this young boy's mother worked in the Department of Mysteries in the Ministry of Magic. In the process of him coming home, the stones had been swifted from the boy's pockets to the Mother's pocket. It was a habit she had while doing the laundry, so nothing would get lost.

Once the holidays were over, and the children had been sent back to school, all parents of course went back to the regular routines. The frazzled mother of course hadn't off from work for weeks, and now was returning again. With the stones in her pocket. She'd absently taken them from there and placed them on her desk. They sat there for weeks, until they'd covered with papers and books. Again, forgotten.

But by another chance, a book and some papers were needed from this pile by an Unspeakable. The stones had been picked up in the process, and taken to the veil room. Unbeknownst to anyone, the stones fell on the rocks. Ignored, and picked around, until eventually... they came in contact with the arch...

Gently, hardly anyone noticed right away, but a hand came and pushed the veil aside and a tall figure stepped out. He was soon followed by another man and two women.

"Where are we?"
"Godric... what have you gone and done now?"
"I have done nothing!"
"You always say that."
"He has a point."
"Well this time it is true!!"
"Well we are no longer at the Castle."
"Quite astute of you, Rowena."

Their conversation ceased as the noticed the stunned Unspeakables standing around them.
"You... came out of the veil! The Minister must be informed at once!"

The mysterious four looked to the archway behind them, and all four seemed to nod to each other in agreement.
"We will accompany you, in order to straighten this out," one of the men answered for the others.

Once the room was clear and the arch way no longer blocked, again hands gradually came out from behind the veil. The voices louder. All of them anxious, fearful, confusion, excitement. Fighting for life. Some came staggering out before disappearing into wisps of light traveling far away from the Ministry. The stronger the essence, the longer they stayed, exhale lasting for an hour.

And then there was one. A gleeful youth with curly blond hair. He stepped out of the veil much like the first four. He stepped out from the arch turning around, taking in the room. Then his eyes fell down till he saw the stones, his eyes a glow. He knelt down, picked them up in his hands testing the weight in his hands. "At last, I have it." was all he uttered as his excitement took control, and he too disappeared into a whisp of light to travel and reappear elsewhere.

The stones, were no longer forgotten.

Nearly spring and where is Harry Potter? Hogwarts keeps their ear out for any news while they deal with the horror of Snape and the Carrows. Freedoms they took for granted are stolen from them and many friends are even missing because of their blood status. The only ones getting a break are the Purebloods that get a kick out of torture and pain. Without the Trio, the small amount of D.A.s left in school try with almost no effect to stop the terror destroying their school and with what secrecy they can afford, they recruit new members as much as humanly possible during the small amounts of socialization allowed by their new Headmaster along with covertly spreading propaganda, including painting messages on the wall. Those outside lucky enough to be picked up by the Order are moved to there own personal prison stuck deep in Muggle London being taught and protected by Graduates and Order members. The ministry has been infiltrated. Slowly the corruption is being spread to every nook and cranny of Magical establishments. Not one single person is safe, not even Purebloods. How long can the students and Order hold off before completely being taken over by the evil that runs among them?

OPENS FEBRUARY 4TH

WHO WE WANT: Dumbledore's Army (& new recruits), Muggleborns and some Halfbloods to be out of Hogwarts and under Order protection, Halfbloods to be picked on and sassy in school, Purebloods to be bullies and elitists, Graduates that will help with Order or DE business and be useful in other such ways.
