For centuries, the Ancient and Most Noble House of Black have ruled the Wizarding World. The crown has passed from father to son, and never has the line been broken.
But the Black line has been dwindling for years, and after the heir to the throne, Sirius, was disowned in 1997, it was up to his younger brother Regulus to take the reins. Only problem is, secretly Regulus never wanted to be King, and he certainly never wanted the arranged marriage and the constant scrutiny that came along with it. With political turmoil in the air as the line of succession plots against the heir, it is only a matter of time before backstabbing, deceit, and murder take their place within the royal court.
To make things worse, when Sirius left the royal family, he formed the Blackcoats, a group of witches and wizards whose goal it is to see the monarchy demolished. They will do whatever it takes to tear down the royal family and the nobles who follow them.
In a country on the brink of anarchy and open rebellion, both sides must fight to preserve what they believe in, no matter the cost. |

| Therians - an OC adventure to get your teeth (and claws) into. |
[19 Jun 2009|04:31pm] |
 ~~~ Application ~~~ Taken/Reserved PBs ~~~ Cast List ~~~ FAQ ~~~ Want Ads ~~~ RP Comm ~~~ OOC Comm ~~~ ~*~*~*~*~*~ PremiseFor as long as humans have recorded their history, there has always been mention of those that could change form.The Egyptians, for instance, had worshipped strange half human, half animal 'gods'. While the Native Americans believed that people had spirit animals that guided them and reflected their true character. Mythology features many creatures that can take on or show human characteristics. And then there are the stories of dark and horrifying were-beings that cursed people turn into once every full moon. All these stories have one thing in common - their true basis is about Therians. In modern times, the Therians keep their ability secret and live amongst the rest of humanity. Although, there is a specific town where Therians thrive. Though, in recent times, many non-therians have moved to live there and thus the abilities are kept from those that do not know of their existence. The Therians are not cursed like the were-beings of the stories and can change at will - there is, however, a specific time when their change is forced and out of their own control. The full moon. ~*~*~*~*~*~ Do you want to howl at the moon, or would you rather roar? However you wear your fur or feathers, welcome home. ~*~*~*~*~*~ IMPORTANT: Please read ALL information in the OOC comm before applying ***Want Ads now up, please read first*** Any queries or questions fill free to email at: therians.mods@gmail.com

Life is a series of open books
People get lost in the pages of books all the time, whisked away into worlds of imagination created by talented authors. People leave the real world behind for just a little bit as they sink into the written word.
Couldn't it go both ways? What if while you're reading about the characters in the book; they are reading you?
Perhaps you remember it; that quaint little book shop, it has big bay windows which always displays some book of interest to those special few, beckoning them to pause in their busy life, step inside and maybe look just a little closer. The Bookstores motto is "Life is a series of Open Books", it's shelves are packed with books of every kind, thick, thin, small, tall and wide. Not just books, anything that contains a story, or even just a page. Everything is packed; racks, shelves, and sometimes just stacked on the floor or available counter-space, all in a seeming disarray with no real organized system. Some fire hazard surely.
You never really caught the name of the place, something just drew you through the shelves and racks until you found some particular piece of literature... Perhaps you took it to the cashier, some elderly type who smiled kindly and rung up your purchase, placing it in a simple blue bag with little more than a passing 'Good choice', perhaps you tucked it into your jacket and slinked out the door unwilling to meet the shopkeepers eye, whatever the circumstance, you somehow managed to aquire something to read.
Perhaps you never went to the shop at all.. maybe your parents, or grandparents did and you simply found the book and receipt years later.
Maybe you read it right away, maybe you tucked it into your bedside drawer and forgot about it for months, maybe you are sorting out the attic and run across the book, either way, sooner or later; you find yourself opening the pages and begin to read. But this book it's special, the more you read, the further into the story you go, until you're finished reading it's all you can dream about, more and more as you read you feel yourself drawn toward a particular Persona. More and more you recognize things in your own life that could parallel that Persona, you see yourself as that Persona, you dream of their life, perhaps daydream it, who knows. Whether you read the book once, or a thousand times, each time it's the same, drawing you in, haunting you.
It's after the first time that you finish that maybe you begin to notice something, like something about you has changed, something is just a little different. Suddenly there is a talent or skill you didn't know you had before, suddenly there is an awareness of others like yourself who were drawn into stories only to find that when they finished they had changed in some little special way. Perhaps it's good, perhaps it's bad, what you do from here? is your choice.
The quaint bookstore with its big bay windows if you try to go back... is gone.
