Although thousands of years have passed since the Greeks were the magnificent empire of yore, the memorable persons that populated their fables and their explanations -- gods and goddesses, heroes and nymphs, muses that bring their inspired artists to their knees -- have been forgotten as truth and instead regarded as beautiful, if fictional, characters. Angered by the disrespect the human race has paid them, the Olympian gods devised a plan: go down to earth, as they were wont to do, and stir things up. After all, hadn't they done that so many times before, interacting with the mortal men of their creation to satisfy a bit of boredom? They needed to be taught a lesson.
Except for one thing: without the power of belief and faith behind them, the gods found their powers a bit... lacking. Rather than ending up on earth as the all-powerful beings who brought mortals trembling to the ground, they ended up as... mortals. Mortals who just so happened to be reincarnated mythological figures. Mortals who just so happened to be reincarnated mythological figures in New York. As their memories come through, will it disrupt the lifetime of personality they have set up for themselves? How will it affect their relationships? And will they ever be able to exact their revenge?
Letalis is a Greek mythology game that uses premades as a starting device for CR with other players. We encourage our prospective players to not only think outside the box when it comes to plot but also to feel free to break away from the premade description as the game evolves. We are hoping to be a dynamic community heavy on relationships and character development as the cast reconciles their identities as both mortal men and women and the gods and goddesses of mythos.
opens: friday the thirteenth, january text.

Are you tired of the same old canon Harry Potter games? Tired of your favorite characters being taken? Wish you could play your own original character in a Harry Potter game? Had your fill of seeing the same people with the same attributes and characteristics played over and over? Sick of high school games where the mods never enforce the rules and no one ever gets caught doing something they’re not supposed to? Are you looking for somewhere to play where the mods are understanding and actually do their job? Looking for people who don’t just play with the same two people all the time, leaving everyone else looking for plot?
Boy, aren’t you glad you looked at ads in this community.
Because this might be the right place for you. Here at the Washington Irving Academy, we have amazing professors, house point systems, open minded mods and characters, plot for anyone who would like it, a chat for ooc fun and getting lines for your kiddies, historically accurate... uh, history, weekly prompts and sports game results, and much more! We are looking to start the game up January 20th. Come and join us! |

Welcome to the year 8700.
Nothing is the same
They say history is doomed to repeat itself if we don’t look back and learn from our mistakes. But easier said than done when your history goes back thousands of years. No one remembers the names Voldemort, Harry Potter, or Albus Dumbledore, even though they played a significant role in how history turned out; the residents of the year 8700 may not know their names, but things would have turned out a lot different for them if the events of the 1980s and 1990s hadn't unfolded as they did.
Then again, maybe not.
No one knows how they got there, just that one by one, people have started waking up in a time not their own. And not all of them are from the same reality either. It’s our decisions and circumstances that shape our lives, and the residents and travelers alike are about to get a crash course in just how easily their lives can be affected.
How they choose to react to this knowledge is up to them, but one thing is certain: they won’t be the same.
Join us if you’d like a chance to live again.

EVAN ROSIER/ MULCIBER JR. Right now the Death Eaters are constantly arguing among themselves, and they are in desperate need of someone that can keep the peace. Someone that isn’t afraid to jump into the middle of the conflicts that we have due to all of the strong personalities to try to mediate. This person would potentially be a headstrong leader that isn’t afraid to call people out on not picking up the slack. Also, it would be great if they were someone with very strong pro-Voldemort and anti-muggle opinions, possibly because they are second generation Death Eaters like Evan Rosier and Mulciber Jr., both of whom have cousins already in play. Rosier is related to the Black sisters, and Mulciber Jr. is related to Thorfinn Rowle.

MINERVA MCGONAGALL To be completely honest, the Order is currently a bunch of kids galavanting around the world without any real plan of action. We need someone older and more experienced to come and change that. Minerva McGonagall would be perfect for that job. She is Dumbledore’s second in command at Hogwarts, so why couldn’t she be his second in command in the Order? She could bring more structure and organization to the disorderly Order, thus allowing them to be more productive. Plus, she is a recognizable face of authority, and someone needs to remind several Order members that they are no longer students at Hogwarts.

 The Space-Time Orient Express
A MULTI-FANDOM EXPERIENCE
Thank you for choosing the Space-Time Orient Express! You have currently boarded a Möbius class locomotive. The Möbius is no ordinary railway service. Equipped with a self-propelled steam engine, first-class parlour, observation and dining cars with dedicated kitchen cars, and an ever-expanding fleet of sleeper carriages, we pride ourselves on our frontline stewards' excellence of service. The Möbius' routes are neither here nor there. Defy the spacetime continuum. Immerse yourself in a side of the universe you've never before encountered. Be a part of the legend. Every stopover is guaranteed to be an exciting new adventure.Notice from the Senior ConductorDue to unforeseen instrumental and environmental factors, the Möbius is being evacuated and as of now is designated a RUNAWAY. We are currently aware of the situation in which involuntary and quite unsuspecting non-passengers are being commandeered by the vehicle's inter-dimensional engine.
Please be advised that these units are uniquely designed to traverse between alternate realities and dimensions. It is imperative that you not be disembarked at the train's hour of departure. Those who choose to disembark in a foreign world do so at their own risk and peril of being stranded indefinitely. The Space-Time Orient Express cannot be held liable for the retrieval of passengers with implied intent to remain at the destination. An intent to remain can be demonstrated by a failure to board at the designated hour of departure.
Rescue is underway at operational headquarters and our specialists are working around the clock to track the Möbius. However, the renegade nature of the train presents inherent challenges in anticipating its route. We ask you please to remain calm during these trying times. Godspeed.

South Peak National Institution
South Peak National Institution or Supernatural(SPN)High as it's not so affectionally called, is a place where unruly children, teenagers, and adults are sent by either by choice, their parents, or a court of law, to reform and rehabilitate their not so pleasant behaviors.
South Peak is special, taking in only the toughest cases. Weres, Shifters, Vampires, Witches, Gifted Humans and other Supernatural beings are taught to control their instincts and blend in with society. Here a talented staff of teachers, Hunters, and officers provide a safe learning environment for all enrolled. Some have rap sheets a mile long, others have been bitten and turned against their will and some were just born with their gifts. But all have one thing in common, they are all stuck in this secluded reformatory high in the Catskills. Can they all learn to coexist? No one knows for sure.

"I guess when it comes down to it
Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up
these are the best days of our lives."
It's the start of 2023, the 25th Anniversary of the end of the war will be later this May. Purebloods are a dying breed, halfbloods and blood equality are wildly accepted, sentient creatures are attaining more and more equal rights with each passing day. Blood status still technically exists, but the ruling theme of this generation seems to be 'who cares? I can't believe we fought over this stuff in the past'. The elite purebloods are few and far in number, and don't hold anywhere near the social and political clout they once did. Don't let it all fool you, the Muggle and Magical worlds still remain firmly divided, and whatever Muggle struggles have happened in the past 25 years haven't breached the walls of the Wizarding world.
For these kids, born in the baby boom after the war, life is perfect ... or as perfect as it can get when you're a witch or wizard.
