Forgotten Gods [03 May 2009|10:26am] About / Rules / Cast List / Held / Wanted / FAQ / Resources / Apply What happens to the old gods, once their temples have crumbled and their believers have abandoned them? Do they die, forsaken, alone? Or do they remain, still wandering the world, immortal, surviving off what little belief they can gather? Forgotten Gods follows the lives of these old deities, brought to America long ago by explorers or immigrants from their homelands and eventually abandoned or lost from memory. As their worshippers moved on to new religions, the gods' powers waned - for a god, at its most pure essence, is no more than an idea, and an idea is worthless if there is nobody to believe in it. Some have passed, forgotten, from the world, while others have fallen into madness. Some have simply tried to adapt, to make a life for themselves in this place without gods, getting by on what little scraps of worship and belief they can garner. Others are more radical, attempting to regain the power that was once theirs, to revive their followings. And then there are the New Gods. Gods of cars and computers, television and radio, cities and highways, all those things that modern Americans put their faith in. They are young, at the height of their power. These newcomers are regarded dismissively by some of the older gods, who have seen so many new deities rise and fall in their time; jealously by others, who wish to reclaim the power for their own; and by all with a deep wariness. Inspired by the world of Neil Gaiman's American Gods, this game invites players to step into the roles of deities, old and new, to create their own modern mythology.

[03 May 2009|04:14pm] X Premise X Rules X Characters X Taken PBs X Application X F.A.Q. X Contact List X Friends Button On January 1st, 1980, Voldemort disappeared. Not even his most devoted followers know where he went, but in the absence of their leader, the Death Eater movement gradually fell apart, and the wizarding world found itself in an uneasy truce. The horror of the war has not been forgotten, but few still believe that the Dark Lord will return. Now it's the spring of 1998. Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom, the children of prophecy who might be able to defeat Voldemort once and for all, are about to leave Hogwarts, along with their peers - but they are Chosen Ones unmarked by grief and almost untouched by trial. Thanks to the anticlimax of the first war, the wizarding world is unprepared for a jarring end to their eighteen years of peace. But soon enough, the Dark Marks will burn again... NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS. GAME BEGINS MAY 5. WANTED: Neville Longbottom, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, Draco Malfoy, Rodolphus Lestrange, Severus Snape, Peter Pettigrew, James Potter, Frank and Alice Longbottom, Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy, Rita Skeeter, AND MANY MORE! post comment

[03 May 2009|09:30pm] It's now 2003 and after five years of healing the Wizarding World is ready to get on with their lives. The Wizengamot has reached the verdict on their last Death Eater trial. And just when everyone begins to breathe again, a family of Muggle-Borns with a brand new baby were brutally murdered. And above their homes the Dark Mark is glowing just as brightly as it had five years ago. The Order and the Ministry are both on the hunt for the Lestranges, the only missing Death Eaters. But the rest of the world is starting to wonder if it's all just smoke and mirrors. Is Voldemort really back from the dead? After all... he's done it before.

Welcome to the City of Sin ( original supernatural game ) [03 May 2009|11:09pm] For the past one hundred and fifty years the world has been held tightly in the clutches of the supernaturals. Demons, vampires, werewolves and creatures of that ilk have risen to rule over the mortals who have become nothing more than slaves and pets, things to be used and discarded when they are broken. Las Vegas is much like any of the other remaining cities - a cage re-built by Masters who rule with sin in mind. It is ruled by The Elari, a demonic family who keep the humans controlled so that they may live like Kings and Queens. The Elari are powerful, ruling over Las Vegas as they do, but even those solid foundations can be rocked. Especially with the arrival of the Raidan, another ruling family who seems to have plans for the city. Something is brewing. Some say war, other say the end of days. No matter what it is The Watch is there to stop it all, saviours of the little bit of Humanity left. But will that be enough? or will they rip the world apart? thecityofsin, thecityofooc, thecitylines the premise » the guidelines » the groups the taken and held pbs » wanted characters » application post comment

[03 May 2009|11:30pm] Rules - Available Characters - Application - Played By's Tired of those games that are purely meant for shipping purposes and barely focus on the events of the first war? We are, and that is exactly why we have created Waddiwasi. Tidbits of information is all we have been given, tiny nuances to sustain us, but what about the fine details? What really happened during the First War when You-Know-Who was at his peak and the Wizarding World was barely staying above water? The individual stories of those during that time and the conflicts they had were never written, but they certainly existed. Students just out of Hogwarts viewed the world with endless possibilities; some acquired jobs, found a place to live, settled down and had a family, while others made their parents proud, took the Dark Mark, and joined an organisation which promised to restore the wizarding world to its former glory. So join us and let's write their history, a complete history, of the events that happened that affected the fate of the wizarding world forever. Wanted: Bellatrix Lestrange, Remus Lupin, Gideon Prewett, Marlene McKinnon, Narcissa Malfoy, Lucius Malfoy, Rabastan Lestrange, Alice Longbottom, Mary MacDonald, Rita Skeeter, Hestia Jones, Amelia Bones, Bartimus Crouch Sr., Molly Weasley, Arthur Weasley, and more! If they were alive during the 70's, we would love to have them! Original characters are considered. post comment
