| High school: the best and worst of times - especially if you can move things with your mind, shoot fire from your fingertips, or lift up a car with one hand. Welcome to Tranquility, Pennsylvania, just another ordinary small town in a post-evolutionary world. Tensions are running high as, one by one, the powered students are outed and the anti-powered sentiment strengthens. It’s been thirty years since the Powered People’s Protection Act was passed, yet the world is still filled with discrimination and hatred, and in a small town like Tranquility, things don’t change unless you force them to. One thing is certain: revolution is coming, and sooner or later, everyone is going to have to choose a side. |

 1979 is winding toward its own close. Conflicts between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters continue as Dark Lord continues pressing for dominion of the Wizarding world, and the Ministry will not stand for it. With the rise of a new administration five years ago, Britain has seen the situation grow more and more tense as all three sides raise the stakes one after another.
Laws prohibit travel without Ministry approval, and increasingly, democracy seems to be giving way to a police state. Muggleborns and their advocates disappear in the night as terrorists spill innocent blood in the streets. Pureblood manors are burned and ransacked as an organization for peace lashes out to fight fire with fire. Chaos ensues.
The loudest question on everyone's minds and lips is the simplest: who will win?
No one is certain, and no one is certain what will be left for those winners when the smoke clears.

Salazar Slytherin wasn't the only person to leave his secrets embedded in the very structure of Hogwarts itself.But he was one of the most determined. And after another of his dangerous secrets was used against muggleborn with devastating effect, public opinion turned against Slytherin -- not just the man, but the Hogwarts house.
Three years and a lot of negotiating later, the four new houses of Hogwarts are about to be introduced for the optional summer term of 2021. But Hogwarts isn't just a mundane building that doesn't care what happens within it. And Salazar Slytherin wasn't the only person to leave his secrets embedded in the very structure of Hogwarts itself.
From the quarrels of the Founders to the enhancements of the Victorian Age to the magic added after the most recent Battle of Hogwarts, Hogwarts embodies the magic of the ages, secret lore and forgotten history. And what the reformers didn't realize in their zeal is that a great deal of that magic ties into the four traditional Hogwarts houses.
And what happens to Hogwarts when those four houses are replaced? Things Fall Apart![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) thingsfall_mod

 Super heroes exist. So do the villains, the mutants, and the alien races you've heard whispered about. Society has deemed mutants unsafe and across the globe the Mutant Registration Act is being talked about and decided upon. If this passes, what's next for the super-kind?
will you...

A NEVER ENDING BATTLE
It was fought in many ways, in many times. A Hellmouth that woke and spewed forth evil. Hell and Lucifer coming forward to our world. The unnatural awakening of a hybrid vampire and werewolf. A firm of lawyers that could bring the very denizens of hell to Earth. There has always been a constant struggle for the balance between good and evil. More than once the Powers have had to step in to try and right the balance. Every small decision, every sacrifice, was noted, changed the course of worlds.
But evil doesn't play fair, it doesn't follow rules, and it doesn't like to lose. Teaming up for a single purpose, the Evil of the world is taking the fight out of time and space. They've built a world in a bubble of time and summoned their enemies, our heroes, our champions. The spell is sent out into our world and the last thing they see before they wake up in this new world are eyes of

this is NOT the triwizard tournament
Twenty-five years after the fateful Tournament, the political atmosphere in Britain and Europe had changed drastically. The threat of the Dark wizard known as Lord Voldemort had disappeared, and in the years following the triumph, governments arose that were much more focused on cooperation and tolerance among wizards and witches at home and internationally. In 2019, a contingent of people led by Second Wizarding War hero Harry Potter and Bulgarian Quidditch superstar Viktor Krum formed, eager to encourage the next generation to focus on others' similarities rather than their differences. Both leaders spoke eloquently of the lasting friendships they had made and the valuable lessons they had learned during the 1994 Triwizard Tournament. They advocated a replacement event for the student population.
With the assistance of the International Association of Quidditch, three years later, the inaugural Junior International Quidditch Tournament is set to begin. Four Quidditch teams representing their schools will compete against each other in a series of matches throughout the academic year, with two finals at the end of the year to determine the overall winner. And alongside all the Quidditch fever that is sure to grip the castle, the typical difficulties of an academic year at Hogwarts must still be traversed: exams, friendships, romance, and antics. Can they handle the pressure?
Feinted is a canon-compliant next-gen role-playing game set at Hogwarts during the school year 2022–2023. Opens 19 August. |

a post deathly hallows rpg
Concept • Rules • Taken/Held
Afterward is set in 1999, over a year after the Battle of Hogwarts. Our concept is a simple one. What happened afterward? There are nineteen years between the last chapter of Deathly Hallows and the Epilogue and this game revolves around playing those intervening years out. Are we Epilogue compliant? Maybe, maybe not. It all depends on the choices our characters make and the directions they choose to go in.
most wanted: assorted weasleys, some harry potter kid, you!
