Not So Far Away [13 Nov 2010|09:06am] Not So Far Away... A Modern Fairy Tale RPG Premise II Rules II Application II FAQ II Holds/Character List II Wanted Characters II Taken Characters II Friend Button MOST WANTED CHARACTERS Captain Hook, Robin Hood, and Many More! For as long as anyone can remember, the City has always been one of the largest metropolitan centers in the world. It has had its share of glory and decline, but none so great as the age following the founding of OzCorp. Michael Ozma was no man of magic, but he might as well have been, for the technological wonders he wrought. Today, however, the Gilded Age is long past. OzCorp, now led by Ozma's three daughters, has become corrupt, and the City has fallen from its glory days. Crime and drugs now rule the streets, though some aristocrats continue to live above it all. Inspired by folk-lore and fairy-tales, Not So Far Away is a unique Role-Playing World that brings characters from fairytale, folklore, and mythology from around the world together into an ever-expanding universe. post comment

[13 Nov 2010|02:41pm] foolscarousel If you go down in the woods today...you’re sure of a big surprise. There are some new neighbors in Harpers Valley, West Virginia though it isn't the neat little townhouses or apartment complex that they're occupying. And like good neighbors they've decided to be hospitable to their new town-mates, though only a select few. Move over Tom's Pool Hall, there's a new hot spot in Harper's Valley and if you're one the young teenagers who've been put on the Guest list, you should count yourself lucky or should you?. After all, anyone who's ever read Shakespeare knows that no one knows how to throw a party quite like the Fae. If you go down to the woods these days, you're in for a big surprise... post comment

Dark Obsidian - A Neo-Noir Game [13 Nov 2010|05:10pm] You can't handle this place Welcome to Obsidian City where the sun never shines, the crime never sleeps and love never dies. A dark city in all sense of the word, Obsidian City is lucky to see one day of sunshine. If the city is dark at night, it isn't much better during the day. Too much smog and cloud blocks out the half decent light that struggles in between the skyscrapers. People make do though, possibly a little angrier than those who live under the undivided sun, a little more miserable, a little more hopeless. This is no city for the weak, and it certainly isn't a tourist hot-spot. Obsidian City was never a shining city on the hill, it was built and born as if already crumbling down. Beneath the heavy, dark clouds that rarely seem to let up, lies a sprawling mecca of theft, corruption and greed. It really is no wonder that in such sunlight starved streets, there is little light to be had in the city’s inhabitants. Each jewel-named district hardly lives up to its name: The Ruby District, a self-sufficient community of its own, ruled by whores, who are the law. The rich are safely tucked away in The Onyx Towers, far from their poorer brethren, the utterly impoverished who languish in the Ivory Narrows. Outside of The Ruby District, where the only laws are their laws, it is not the oft corrupt and always under funded police force that holds the most sway in the run of Obsidian City. No, the city is divided up and controlled by three major crime families, in close environs that seem to speak of a constant threat of war between two or more of the ruling families. The Russians led by the Petrovskii Family, from their base of operations, Duma, an upscale nightclub known for its beautiful women and for the illegal deals made in dark back rooms, lord over the Diamond District. The Irish led by the O'Donnell Family, from the Irish pub that the first O'Donnell to come to America founded, long ago, loud and busy and full of their history, control the Emerald District. The Italians led by the Pavoni Family, from their Italian family restaurant in the center of the Topaz district, and come with as much flourish and ceremony in both their illegal deeds and their lifestyle. The Families are not the only ones that the populace should fear, as there have been recent whispers that there is a serial killer preying upon the inhabitants of the city, lurking in the shadows and bringing death with them. As if the population of Obsidian City didn't have enough on their plate, they now need to look over their shoulder at every step. And so do you. Take a walk around town, if you're feeling lucky Scenes • OOC • Mods Rules • FAQ • Premise • Characters • Wanted • Holds Apply • Contact the Mods • Area Info</font> </center> post comment

The Crescent City Institute; on Scribbld.com [13 Nov 2010|08:39pm] CRESCENT CITYI NSTITUTE MODS • RPG • OOC ~THERES A CARNIVAL IN THE GRAVEYARD TONIGHT~ Premise Setting Rules Apply Character Directory Wanted List FAQ School Info The Crescent City Institute of Magic has a long history of educating the best and brightest Witches and Wizards in the United States. Located on the grounds of an old plantation near New Orleans, CCI has a culture shaped both by its students and faculty, as well as by the close proximity of New Orleans itself. CCI has been through changes in recent years. Hurricane Katrina hit the school hard, as it did all of the region. Many upperclassmen will remember the previous headmaster’s tragic death during the storm as he tried to help evacuate the school. As the new school year begins, more changes are in store. Adversaries old and new are drawn to New Orleans like moths to a flame, and strange…things…abound. One thing is for certain: this year, petty high school drama will be the least of anyone’s concerns… post comment
