| WTF?! RP - Not your typical Harry Potter Roleplay |
 Setting. Rules. Holds. Application.
Game Opened: April 1, 2009! Applications for female characters will be given priority.
WTF?! is a 'Harry Potter' afterlife-based roleplaying game set on its own island, called Sointula. It takes some of the clichés found so often in the fandom and in 'Potter' RPs and revels in them.
Four gods have set this island up so that they can observe peoples' daily lives. Think of it like a game of 'Sims' for the dead. The gods pick and choose who they want on their island for their own reasons and may or may not help people. They do whatever they want, because they can.
Note, though, that there's a lot of weirdness in this game. It's not your typical 'put everybody from the canon together in one place' type of setting. Modern Muggle technology is everywhere, and everyone who shows up on the island will know how to use that modern tech.
The game is quirky but not silly. There will be comedic storylines, and there will be dramatic storylines. It's all up to the players.
This game is looking for creative people who are willing to work within some set parameters and explore the possibilities of the fandom's clichés. Some aspects of your character's life on the island will be set by the gods when that character is accepted. If you're not comfortable with playing things that aren't determined by you, don't bother applying. It's not a crack game, despite it's name and setting, but it's also not 'high drama, all the time.' It needs players who have enough time to give to the game to develop their characters and storylines, not those who apply to every new game that starts up and never put in any quality time on any game because their creativity is spread too thin.
Characters that aren't active, or who only interact with one or two other characters, will be removed. That doesn't mean your character has to thread with every single person in the game, but you have to at least make an effort to have them talk to and interact with characters outside of those they were involved with in the novels. If you enjoy taking the canon characters outside of their comfort zones, exploring new possibilities, and you enjoy quality RP in an unusual setting, this game could be for you.
If you're looking for the same old tired stuff, go elsewhere.
Every character from the 'HP' canon is open for play, wizard, Muggle, or whatever, but be sure to read the Rules, Setting, Posting Guidelines, and Taken Characters & PB Lists, before applying.
I'm a harsh guy when it comes to my rules. If you give me crap, I'll give it back to you. I don't care who you are, or how your popular you are in the fandom, or how many games you're in, or how many times you've played 'X' character in games, or how long you've been RPing, or if you write fanfic that makes people squeal. I don't care.
Once you've read the threads, and you're still interested in applying, here's the Application. |

ANOTHER YEAR BEGINS
Dear Parents,
As another school year approaches I wanted to address the news surfacing across the nation that muggles are developing latent magical abilities. While there are many sensational articles out in the muggle media right now, I must stress the fact that the governmental committee assigned to investigate these cases have not found any conclusive evidence to confirm these claims. While Pacific Coast Academy will continue to offer its volunteer weekends in wizarding and muggle communities alike, a heavier emphasis upon secrecy while among muggles will be enforced this year. I look forward to seeing new and familiar faces when Pacific Coast Academy opens it doors again and wish you the best in your final weeks of summer vacation.

After the events of March 29th, 2007 our Heroes are disheartened, spread across the U.S., and quickly losing their numbers.
And to make matters worse, one of their own was working up a plan that would sacrifice his peers to better himself.
As if that weren't enough, someone is out there with malicious intent toward people who are "special".
Someone is hunting and rounding up anyone with abilities. No one knows who the hunter is or where the hunter comes from.
And no one knows where their peers are going. Will opposing sides find allies in each other to end this menace,
or will they do as they always have and serve only themselves and their own purposes? Only time will tell...
and time is something they're running out of.
 heroesfugitives  fugitives_mod fugitives_ooc
HeroesFugitives will run parallel to Volume 4 of the series
starting from March 30th, 2007 (after episode 3.13 Dual) and run in real time.
We will be mostly AU from there, but will incorporate some of the events
that take place in the rest of season 3 with our game.

| At the end of the war everyone was happy to welcome Kingsley Shacklebolt as the new Minister of Magic. A practical man, they put their trust in him. "He'll do right by us," people said. That is, until he made a mistake. People began to talk: "That Seer has put a spell on him!" "When have they ever done anything to protect us?" "He's put every one of us in danger!" There is talk of a group of people who believe the government is too corrupt to truly do right by the people. There have been far too many wrongly appointed Ministers, and corruption among the high ranking officials. There is only one way to fix things:
BRING DOWN THE MINISTRY.
Most Needed: Ronald Weasley, male DE's and female's!

THE BUREAU NEEDS YOUAnother monster dusted, waiting for the clean up crew. Crisis averted, Earth saved, all was right with the world again. But when the agents go back to the office, there's a more daunting task they have to face: paperwork. Assembled are the usual band of freaks and geeks. The aliens the critters the mutants or just the fanboys who have knowledge of the paranormal - and more. They make up the Bureau of Paranormal Research and Defense, they protect a world that generally have little idea they exist. As Professor Trevor Bruttenholm once said, when things go bump in the night, the BPRD bumps back.
The Bureau is a multifandom agency RPG. Any characters from sci-fi/fantasy fandoms can be played, and you do not need to have a knowledge of the Hellboy universe. Rules || FAQ || Taken || Held || Wanted || Application
