[12 Feb 2008|06:11am] info | available/taken | pbs | rules | application| faq In 1996, the Dark Lord went back to the Gaunt dilapidated shack and found something he didn't expect: a hidden room. This room only appeared to the eyes of the Gaunts, who bared the name. It was very old magic, but now with his new body he could now see the room that had been a secret from him even within his youth. The room itself was a bedroom with lavish decorations, trinkets and a bunch of items that belonged to the Gaunts and Slytherin himself. It seemed to be interchangeable and could be any size, having every great answer that involved the Slytherin ancestry and the one thing he was looking to create: a way to be reborn. His search ended with something simple-- the Mirror of Erised, the mirror created by another who "mastered" death. Erised is the name of a woman who had found the solution to the veil but was unable to go that far with her experimenting. We all know that Voldemort is about experimenting, he stole the mirror after tracking it down from Russia and placed it in front of the veil. Lord Voldemort spent a great deal of time preparing a complicated, time-set spell that would release in a time where Harry Potter nor his friends alive. When the preparations were finished, he needed to give the task of activating it to one of his followers. He handed it to Bellatrix LeStrange, but she perished and Rodolphus handed it off the the Malfoys. Lucius, for one, never wanted to bring him back and thus didn't do as instructed and neither did Draco. It wasn't until generations later where Cerbirus Malfoy, a far, far, far grandson to Draco that it was acted upon. Lord Voldemort would not be happy upon returning. The year 3000, no one to defeat him. Voldemort had a back up plan PROMISING. GAME ALREADY HAS 16 MEMBERS. COME JOIN. House of Gaunt is a game that combines muggles, wizardry and a small war.

Ever At The Ready [12 Feb 2008|08:15am] - Mod Journal - RP Comm - OOC Comm - Graphics - - Plot - Rules - Character List - Played-Bys - Team Info - Apply - - Contacts (F-Lock) - Advertise (F-Lock) - So we all know that Captain Jack Harkness runs Torchwood Three, that Torchwood One was destroyed in the Battle of Canary Wharf, that Torchwood Two is headed by "a very strange man" and that Torchwood Four is currently misplaced. Well that's all fine and dandy, but things are about to start changing. Torchwood One is reopening just outside of London and is now known as Torchwood 1.1 and Torchwood Two's leader has been replaced. Torchwood Three of course isn't any different, with the exception that Jack has been missing for a bit. The big thing is that Torchwood Four is back on the map, headed by the same person it had been before it was 'misplaced'. 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: TOSHIKO, people for the Torchwood Teams, Civilians, Aliens, Bad Guys, other Canon characters and more! post comment

JH Corporation: An Original Sci-Fi RPG [12 Feb 2008|10:02am] This games opens officially on Wednesday Feb. 13th (weird day, I know), but feel free to post once a member. ------ setting rules faq's news archive mod contact joining ------ locations world information guide to AIA characters suggestions ------ add friends contact list ------ It began with prosthetics... Ways to repair humans physiological functions, augmented or replaced, by electronic or electromechanical components. By rewiring nerves, or flexing another muscle, one was able to control a bionic appendage that made it possible to live a normal life. That opened the floodgates to approving Stem Cell research, generic cells that can make copies of themselves, and eventually those geneticists learned ways to not only create organs.. but skin. Brain matter. Emotions. Many people didn't think it was possible to create an artificial person, and have it perform human tasks as efficiently as someone trained all their life to do the same job. Sentient machines, Bionic Technology, and Human-like "robots" increasingly took on the less extravagant occupations of man. It was a concept that slowly made its way into the minds and lives of the world. Most notably, Japan where it flourished and was refined into a scientific art form. It was believed that one could make a unit think. And they did. They even made them feel... The year is 2025 post comment

Halcyon Halls [12 Feb 2008|10:51am] What if they were real? The myths and legends. The things that go bump in the night. What if they were just like you? Since the dawn of time they've been blamed for all of life's oddities. A strange noise? It must be a ghost. Pets mangled and eaten? Maybe a werewolf got them. That pale man that never ventures out in the day? A vampire, surely. Children behaving badly must be changelings, and that table had to have been forced into your path by a mischievous sprite, now giggling at your misfortune. The list goes on. For each being, there are hundreds of tales, most pure delusion of course, though much of it based in fact. From Nessie and Sasquatch to the Bermuda Triangle and the Land of Mu, our world is filled with the unattainable, the unexplainable... that which we call Myth, or Legend. Yet, like the Will O' the Wisp, or the ghost breath that sends a shiver down your spine, the truth tugs softly at our conscience. Whispers in the dark of a boogeyman in the shadows, or a fairy spinning gossamer tales in the corners of your mind. They are real. And in so many ways... they are just like you. They work. They feed. They even have children. And just like humans, those children go to school. School however, isn’t always as just classes and homework. Strange old castles often have far more lurking about them than is so readily apparent. Ancient curses have been set loose on the school. Memory loss. Sickness. Power switching... Was it an accident? Or are more sinister plans afoot? Unanswered questions abound as the students and staff first try and understand exactly what has happened to them... Welcome to Halcyon Halls. We're changing the future one myth at a time.

[12 Feb 2008|12:50pm] Rules | Character List | Application | Contact List | Played By's Asphodel: Powdered root of asphodel is used in the Draught of Living Death. This plant is traditionally associated with the afterlife and the underworld. We are living in a world of uncertainty now. Before, the only worries we truly had were whether or not we would pass our examinations or if the marauders were the ones responsible for turning everyone's hair a nice shade of lilac. But times are changing and things are getting darker out in the real world. A growing army is fast approaching; friends and family members are disappearing more often and there are a growing number of events happening that can no longer be explained easily. All done by he who dare calls himself Lord. Asphodel is a game focused almost entirely on the war of the late 1970s that threw the entire wizarding world into chaos. With darkening themes and realistic events, it won't be for those who are faint at heart and can't bear to sit back and watch our most beloved characters thrown into the lion's den. Wanted Characters: Peter Pettigrew, Mary MacDonald, Greta Catchlove, Alecto Carrow, Evan Rosier, Marlene McKinnon, Emmeline Vance, Narcissa Malfoy, Lucius Malfoy, Gideon and Fabian Prewett, Molly and Arthur Weasley, and Death Eaters and Order members would be fabulous...basically, almost all characters are up for grabs! post comment

[12 Feb 2008|04:14pm] Rules || Character List || PB List || Application || Contacts || RP Community By the spring of 1999, the Order had collected and destroyed all of the Horcruxes except one; the locket. Coming face to face with each other before the locket was found, Lord Voldemort located the threat to the last piece of his soul. During the duel between the Dark Lord and The Boy Who Lived, one last powerful spell was cast from Harry's end, and Lord Voldemort used his last resort; a time turner. Believing victory to be in their grasp, the people rejoiced; wizard and muggle alike. The two communities worked together to push back the last remnants of Voldemort's army of monsters, and together rebuilt their homes. No longer able to hide the wizarding community from the muggle world, the two Ministers announced that the alliance between the two worlds was there to stay. Knowing that a fragment of Voldemort’s soul was still out there, the Order continued their desperate search for the locket. ....... With the beginning of a new year, 2003, the people were awakened to the truth when the Death Eaters, along with their allies of magical creatures, attacked the New Years Ball held by the Ministry, and the Dark Lord announced his return. Hundreds were slaughtered and few escaped unharmed before the Death Eaters withdrew, content to let their victims lick their wounds and think about what had occurred. Once again reassembled, the Death Eaters continued their recruiting that had begun before their attack on the ball and planned their next course of action. With the abrupt knowledge of the return of their worst enemy, the Order threw all efforts into their search for the locket that contained the final fracture of Voldemort’s soul; the deaths at the ball weighed heavily on their shoulders. The Ministries of the Muggle and Wizarding communities immediately strengthened their defenses and began their own search for those responsible for the lives lost. There are those who doubt the validity in believing that the Death Eaters have returned, while others take this opportunity and use it for their own personal gain. Groups of individuals use the guise of the Death Eaters to inspire fear and obtain worldly goods. Confusion, doubt, and old fears riddle the minds of the populace, causing trust to become a scarce thing. With deception becoming a more common art, even the tight knit within the Order can be penetrated. First blood has been drawn; now is the time for war. The Death Eaters have a plan to bring the Ministry to the ground and leave the Wizarding world at their feet. AVAILABLE CHARACTERS: Padma Patil || Bellatrix Lestrange || Cho Chang || Kingsley Shacklebolt || Severus Snape || Dean Thomas || Rabastan Lestrange || Blaise Zabini and MANY more post comment

[12 Feb 2008|04:45pm] Rules/Character List/Format/Application/Sample Application/Plot/Game Facts/Played-Bys/Backstory/Icon\PB Sources What if the Prophecy that made Harry Potter the 'Boy who lived' hadn't been given to the Dark Lord? What if a falsified Prophecy had been passed to him instead? The year is 1995, When Harry, Ron and Hermione return to Hogwarts. A few changes have been made to the staff over the summer, the most noticeable being the new Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor; A Mr. Tom Marvolo Riddle. His new post is widely questioned by the wizarding world; The man has been convicted of murders throughout the seventies, why would Dumbledore hire him to teach young children? Dumbledore simply plays it off saying that he has applied "twice before". That he has not been able to be convicted of anything. Mr. Riddle has, after all, been studying abroad since the 1980's, and is very knowledgeable on his subject.

[12 Feb 2008|04:53pm] &netherworld; As it is known to mankind now when death grips a lifeform they perish and are sent into the earth where they will reincarnate into something beautiful and provide the world with the always looping circles of life and death. But, what if those always interlocking circles were bent and broken apart leaving the Valley of the Light forever separated from the Land of the Dead never to continue on the chain reactions of life, death and reincarnation. However this does leave the question: Where does one go when they die if these linked circles are torn apart? A question that has a solution only known to those who have passed on to see their new land. Enter the Netherworld. A sub-world once connected to the state of the living, the Netherworld is an area with many realms all connected to each other by strange portals. Although the Netherworld in itself is mostly a neutral land, there are certain realms that seem to be more of a threat than the others. It is true that to be in this world one must be dead and therefore shouldn't have the need for fear of any things that could be even remotely ominous - but with death comes fear and with fear comes pain. Dead one might be, food you may not need but even in the Netherworld blood and pain are as real as the living. There are four different realms joined together in the Netherworld, each one with their own creatures native to its grounds - it is up to those in the realms to decided for themselves which creatures are friend and which are foe. Judge not by their looks entirely for such things can be deceiving. Shelter can be found if you look hard enough in areas such as caves, and holes. They can even be built if one is creative enough to try. Food and drink are not necessities in the Netherworld as there is no hunger to be felt. There is only one large difference between the living and the dead carried into the Netherworld - the dead have no hearts. The similarities are as simple as if one is cut they will bleed and feel pain. Cold and warm tempuratures have effects on the dead although it is minor. Injuries sustained in death are carried over into the Netherworld as permanent scars. There is but one rule to the land that allows you to pass through realms so freely: the dead cannot visit the land of the living under any circumstances. The living may, however, visit the dead. Perhaps - if one is lucky enough to be called by the living for a meeting, that is. &disclaimer; Netherworld and its moderators accept no responsibility for actions taken by the reader.
