"The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches...born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies...and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not...and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survive..."-The Prophecy
Our story begins as 1980 dies, as the final year of the first war against Voldemort is underway. Lord Voldemort and his followers strike fear into the hearts of all. Giants and werewolves serve the Dark Lord, doing his bidding. The Death Eaters roam free, killing Mudbloods, Muggles, and Blood Traitors as they please. Hundreds have died and disappeared. As each day passes, the resistance grows weaker. Voldemort seems to be invincible and all hope is lost.
That is until a Prophecy was made; a child with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies to those who have thrice defied him and with a power that the Dark Lord will not understand. This child would bring an end to Voldemort’s reign. And so the Dark Lord set out to kill this child before he can grow into a threat.
The problem lay in discovering the child, for two couples who had twice defied the Dark Lord were expecting children, both due in July. In order to seek the answer, Lord Voldemort kidnapped the Unspeakable assigned to the Prophecy, assuming that there he would find the truth, but the Dark Lord did not expect Marlene McKinnon to be brave enough to deceive him.
How could a child born to either the Potters or the Longbottoms be the supposed Prophecy child when their parents had only defied him twice? And the probability of them doing it a third time was inconceivable, who would be foolish enough to defy the Dark Lord that many times? She insisted that a wizard as great as he was, was foolish to waste his time on the silly words of a false seer; she believed the prophecy was false.
With that lie, the children remained momentarily safe with their parents none the wiser to the fate that potentially awaited their children. Until the night of the Autumn Equinox; Halloween, 1980, when Lily and James Potter will once again defy the Dark Lord Voldemort and make the Prophecy a reality.
Now the Dark Lord hunts for the couple and their son, his focus distracted from his original goal of ridding the world of those whom he found to be unworthy; all that matters now was his immortality. This leaves room for the resistance to grow stronger. And just as it seems that there is no hope for the Potters to come out of this alive, Alice and Frank Longbottom thrice defy Voldemort, sending them into hiding as well.
The fate of the Wizarding World lies in the hands of two small infants and a group of vigilantes working for Dumbledore. How can they stand a chance against Voldemort and all of his forces?
It’s time to find out.

You're just a normal person, you tell yourself. You go in, you do your job, come back home. Your life is normal and you don't quite believe in the things that go bump in the night.
Well.
That's until you start noticing little things. Like the bakery down the street, the one you visit every day for their delicious cookies? There's always a man there, in a white suit ordering gingersnap cookies. When he looks at you, the sudden need to stuff yourself beyond your limits with everything in sight makes you swallow and run off. He doesn't seem to notice.
The woman who works at your office, the one who you know is having an affair with your boss, well she always seems as if she's looking at you, smiling wide. And yet, you have this feeling that if you ever budged an inch, gave in to taking what her eyes, her body's offering to you, that if she dared go back to her boss, you'd kill her, you'd kill him.
What's worse, is when you come home, your child is off. She seems to like playing with her doll, talking to it like it's alive. As if the doll really does say things to her, and every time you see her doing something wrong, it's the doll's name that slips from her mouth.
It seems you're the only human left in this place.

This is not the Hogwarts you know. Certainly, its layout is identical, but its ghosts and professors have disappeared. Monsters roam the lower dungeons, and silent house elves dart about performing necessary duties. Outside, it is always winter; the enchanted ceiling of the great hall is always black, even in the daytime. Hogsmeade is deserted, the train doesn't run, and few who venture into the wider world ever return.
People of all ages and from all times are beginning to appear, and they are told by a mysterious old man with no name that they have been rescued, though rescued from what is unclear. Who is the benevolent dictator ruling this world? Is he really that kind after all? What happens when monsters begin to rise to the inhabited levels? And what happens to the people who try to escape?

| No Such Place: An Original Fantasy/Supernatural RPG |

“ . . . All that was left in Pandora’s box was hope.” During the 21st century, a global pandemic swept over the world. They dubbed it the “Pandora virus,” or PV for short, because of its devastating nature. The virus tore through the world’s population. It killed almost one-third of humanity in its first month alone. Countries everywhere grew panicked, believing it to be a work of biological terrorism. Nation stood against nation, and a worldwide war began. Much of earth was laid to waste within just a handful of months by the combined effects of nuclear war and the Pandora virus. Survivors immune to the virus found the world uninhabitable, and many of them perished due to radiation poisoning or famine.
There were other creatures who inhabited this planet along with human beings, though. They had just been in hiding for many centuries. Praeternaturals, they were called. Legendary beings and creatures believed to be nothing more than myth. They were also biologically immune to the Pandora virus. With the foresight of the oracle Euryale, groups of praeternaturals learned of what was to come and prepared for the preordained onslaught. They had built safe havens protected by magic in hidden areas across the world. Taking in as many humans and praeternaturals alike as they could before the war, these communities provided a stable living environment for the survival of all species.
One such safe haven is an ancient land once inhabited by elves, abandoned by them long ago, and renovated into a sanctuary. They call it Elysium. Located in the modern-day Republic of Macedonia near Lake Ohrid, it was once a part of Greece. Now, it is a part of the process to one day rebuild the world. |
Game Objective.
No Such Place is an original fantasy roleplaying game established in December 2007. We actively incorporate game-wide plots that affect all players, but we strongly encourage individual plots among players as well. The world itself is completely interactive and reactive. Whether you prefer action, drama, romance, or horror — this game allows you to play all and pick your favorite to explore. Your objective is to create your own story. However, beware the setting. Everything affects everything, and like a domino effect, No Such Place will affect every character and player with things beyond their control.
Go ahead, take refuge in the land of Elysium. We promise you'll be safe. |

Canon Future Gen goes back in time to 1996 to find that the stories they grew up hearing from their parents have all been changed. The Blacks run the Ministry of Magic and Voldemort disappeared in 1980. Nothing is the way it's supposed to be.
