britishlit British Literature [19 Aug 2008|01:04am] Characters | Rules | Contact | Friend All | Apply Premise | A-Levels/Clubs | Wanted List The year was 2007. Lancaster College, a private school for A-Level students in Oxford, began having a problem with their students. Many were failing their exams, deciding they didn't have the time or motivation to focus on their courses and studies. Parties began happening every night, teachers lost control, and the students began cutting, being disrespectful, and violent. The needle that broke the camel's back, however, was the library fire. It's still debated whether it was an act of violence, or if someone just left a cigarette burning, because practically everything in it was destroyed, but something had to be done, but what? It was the Headmaster who decided that it might be best for everyone if the students began boarding at school. It would give the professors a better idea what the students were like, allowing them to focus and improve on their classroom tactics. If they were able to approach the subjects in a way that the students could grasp, then the students would surely benefit. So, the school was closed down that December, and the Headmaster called in construction crews to build another building- a four story dorm. After several months, Mullen Hall, Lancaster College's newest addition, was ready for use. A few students weren't exactly happy with the idea of a sixth form boarding school. To them, it severly limited freedom. But to most, it gave a good idea what University would be like. So a handful of teens signed up. It is now 2008 and the new school year is just beginning. Will the Headmaster's idea prove successful? Will the students finally buckle down and learn or will they continue to fail their A-levels? post comment

Some we shun against our better judgment and instinct, others we are advised not to take but in spite of this warning, do it anyway. The smallest of decisions can warp your entire perspective, your entire surroundings. Every choice offers an alternative. We ask ourselves the littlest of things, but those so-called 'little things' could have results of mind boggling proportions. What if you steered in the other direction?

[19 Aug 2008|03:44pm] - Mod Journal - RP Comm - OOC Comm - - Plot - Rules - Character List - Played-Bys - Team Info - Apply - - Contacts (F-Lock) - Advertise (F-Lock) - As the crew of Galactica jumped into the orbit of the green and blue planet, a wave of shouting erupted throughout the entire ship. They had finally made it. Friends embraced each other, lovers kissed, and children bounced happily. The truce between the Cylons and Humans remained steady as each gazed upon the beautiful planet known as Earth. They had found their new home, and they were going to share it. The planet would help continue the existence of each race, or so they thought. The few that were given the chance to step foot on the ground soon found the planet not to be up to their expectations. There was nothing left; the planet was in ruin. Something had happened many years before their arrival. How could this desolate place be home of the Thirteenth Tribe? How could it be home to anyone? The group looked over the land, unable to comprehend what could possibly have done this to a planet. There was silence; everyone was too surprised to speak, and too downtrodden to suggest that it was only part of the planet. Before anyone had a chance to return to the Raptor, Dr. Gaius Balter stumbled across a piece of technology that was foreign to him. He stood in front of the DHD and peered over it, recognizing the shapes as constellations. In fact, he recognized quite a few of them, from this galaxy and their home galaxy. As he examined the device, Six appeared next to it, whispering in his ear and telling him to punch in a certain code. He listened to her, and did as he was told. Within moments, the watery-vortex that was the wormhole burst forth through the ring-like portal and the group was taken aback. The group cautiously approached the Stargate, curious as to what type of technological capabilities the 'Thirteenth Tribe' possessed. It was Kara Thrace, triggered by something in her memories, that passed through the Event Horizon first, followed shortly after by Lee and Sam. It wasn't long until the rest of the group made their way through. What awaited them on the other side was something that would surprise them even more: the past. A glitch in the system allowed the group to bypass Atlantis' precautionary measures, and they all arrived on the other side, guns pointed at them and Dr. Elizabeth Weir gazing down at them. And that is where the battle for humanity continued, for the groups all worked together to keep the Wraith and Ori from teaming up and destroying Earth together... The Event Horizon is a Battlestar Galactica/Stargate RP that allows for most characters from the series (New BSG, SG-1 & Atlantis) to be incorporated, as well as original characters! It takes place during the last season of SG-1/season 3 of Atlantis and the last season of BSG. We've only just started and we're looking for a majority of the canon cast still. There is a whole range of characters available, and OCs are welcomed. If you think you are ready to cross the Event Horizon, then we're here to meet you on the other side. We're Currently Looking for: ALMOST EVERYONE! WILL OPEN WHEN THERE ARE 5 MEMBERS (or if we want to start earlier) post comment

Durmstrang Uber Alles - a Durmstrang-based HP game on Inksome [19 Aug 2008|04:04pm] PREMISE The Durmstrang Institute was created for the magical instruction of Eastern European wizards. Once upon a time, it accepted all promising students who had magical aptitude, but now, any time that Muggleborns and halfbloods were ever accepted is a distant memory, in favor of rigid social classes and tradition. Students are ingrained with a sense of superiority or inferiority [one that often starts at home], a respect for tradition and appropriate social behavior, and most importantly a strong desire to succeed and to be the best. Students that graduate from Durmstrang are the most talented, the strongest, the brightest, and the best. The only question is...are you strong enough to survive until graduation?

Mythushaus: A new PB roleplay [19 Aug 2008|11:53pm] Concept | Rules | Characters | Contact | FAQ | Apply | OOC Comm | Main Comm A city is full of stories. Hundreds, thousands, millions of stories unfold everyday along the concrete byways and beneath steel towers. And while every story is unique and original, there’s no denying that some of them seem…familiar. As if the same stories were repeating themselves, the same characters taking shape in slightly different forms. In one particular city, on one particular block, that déjà vu is particularly intense. The people that live and work on this particular block seem to come from the oldest stories. The ones that keep showing up, everywhere you turn. All on this block. This is the home of the archetypes, the culture heroes, the origin myths, the figures of childhood bedtime stories and the characters of song and legend. They’ve shown up in dozens of places, in countless variations. And now they’re here. The only question is: what form will they take this time? The resemblance may be as striking or as subtle as you like. Impress us. --- What we provide: Experienced mods, friendly and welcoming atmosphere, fun characters, mature players, stimulating setting and storyline ideas. What you should bring: Solid characters, mature attitude, decent writing, imagination, eagerness to initiate and interact. post comment
