Ever since being created back in the seventies Polari has been one of the many consistent gay magazines in London, never being listed as one of the top ones but never being shut down either. For nearly forty years this has never changed. Until now. After having no choice but sell the magazine due its financial difficulties, Polari has ended up as a property of a huge publishing company whose plan is to change the magazine completely. Make it the gay man’s Cosmo and FHM both collided in one. New staff has been hired to ensure that the magazine reaches it potential. The only few rules upon hiring staff so far have been that they have to be young, stylish and gay.

RULES/FAQ || THE PLACES || CHARACTER INFORMATION
Gotham had been at war for years over the presence of the Batman. Speculations of where he had come from, who he was, and how he got to Gotham in the first place plagued civilians and villains alike. Perhaps they were lucky, like Metropolis, to have someone dedicated just to them, to take care of them, and ensure their safety. Maybe, in the after affects of the chemical attack on a neighbouring city called Blüdhaven, a new hero was spawned. The stories were endless, but only Bruce Wayne had the real answers. There had always been unrest in Gotham, even with the Batman, some arguing that he was a vigilante, sick and tired of being bullied by those lurking in the shadows of Gotham, others pegging him a masked menace.
Harvey Dent, meanwhile, the youngest man ever in Gotham to run for District Attorney at the tender age of twenty five is the new face of rescue and hope. A man not afraid to show his face and not hide behind a mask, one that thinks that Batman could be the best way to catch the kind of villains Harvey can’t understand. But he’s also interested in having the Batman, to take him into custody and charge him, and show Gotham who he really is. Give them their masked menace, even though he believed in the Bat’s vigilantism.
It’s really too bad that the citizens of Gotham seem to have sided with all the villains, all wanting to capture the Batman and know who this caped crusader is once and for all, but some, like Commissoner James Gorden still believe in the Bat. Some, like him, notice that Batman hasn’t been around much lately. Letting Harvey Dent do all the work that he couldn’t possibly do alone. Has Batman been killed, or is he quietly sitting back, waiting for Gotham to fall into disarray until he comes to save them? What if Batman decides, Gotham has had enough saving, and it was time for the city to fight alone with their White Knight, against menacing forces they never thought imaginable?
"Batman's Gotham City is Manhattan below Fourteenth Street at eleven minutes past midnight on the coldest night in November." So what is Gotham like, without their caped crusader?
OPEN TONIGHT!

Mischief Managed is an original character, contemporary Harry Potter RPG currently seeking talented writers. We are a unique community of original characters that still respect the canon laws of the Harry Potter universe. We value in-depth character development and mature writers (Mary-Sues and self-inserts will not be considered.) This is an HP board for dedicated writers and storytellers that enjoy collaborating with their fellow 'students' to create their own history. We welcome people to apply for professors, as Mischief Managed is one of the few boards that holds active classes in any and all Hogwarts subjects, but we are also looking for students of all houses and ages (especially Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws!) As a moderator, I can tell you that we are always open to new plots and new faces, so feel free to contact the mod account at mismanaged@gmail.com. We look forward to hearing from you!

Many years have passed since the final battle raged at Hogwarts. The world has been at peace, but many post war efforts are still being put into place. Some efforts have taken years to go into effect and the newest one has yet to come into play. How will students react? Parents? We will all have to see.
What if the Hogwarts no longer had houses? Would it bring peace or cause disruption no one could have foreseen?
Is there still a darkness lurking out there in the shadows?
Welcome to Shadows in the Light, an AU next generation Harry Potter roleplay game set in the year 2022.
Game now open!

It's 1925, and the country is in the middle of Prohibition, with what looks to be no end in sight. Savvy businessmen from New York to San Francisco and Chi-town to the Big Easy are making big bucks running the rum...along with the brandy, whisky, wine, and whatever else they can smuggle in. Hot water bottles, ladies foundation garments, coffins...it's all fair game to the gangsters. Only heaven help anyone who gets in their way.
Luckily, some of the competition has an edge. Mutant powers. The government doesn't want anyone to know about it. They're trying to keep order in this crazy mixed up world. The official story is that mutants don't exist. But hey...the mob will take whatever help it can get. Any edge is a good one.

Tons of good characters are available! Officially the game has started, but plot has been progressing slowly and characters have been dropped due to real life commitments. Please take a look.

1535, a time of high tension in the Royal Court of England. The church is splitting in two as Catholicism is being threatened by Reformists and the dread Lutheranism. Plague ravages the lands, spreading the "Sweating Sickness" amongst the people in the most popular areas. Englishmen are tried and punished for not taking the Oath of Allegiance, England is at odds with the greater part of Europe, and the realm is in a continued state of unrest because of the King's "Great Matter" over who is the rightful Queen, Katherine or Anne.
In the Court, scandals spreads between the many factions. The love lives of the upper class seem to feed the wildfires of their gossip. No nighttime rendez-vous goes unnoticed, no bed stays cold for long, no young and innocent lady stays young and innocent.
Treachery, deceit and scandal. In the great power struggle of the Tudor court, will you prove victorious?
