The Good Folk [12 Jan 2013|10:07am] ESCAPE THE HEDGE AND REGAIN YOUR HUMANITY, OR FALL INTO MADNESS. Boston, Massachusetts—Once the rallying point for those yearning for freedom and an end to oppression. These days Boston plays host to a different kind of downtrodden soul. These people are known as Changelings—humans spirited away by the cruel, twisted creatures known as the True Fae. Don't be deceived—these faeries are the furthest thing from Tinkerbell, and their once prisoners are now on the run from the twisted Wonderland known as Arcadia. The citizens of the Beacon Freehold are free for now—free to try to fit the tarnished pieces of their humanity back together and to come to terms with what they have experienced. But though they may have temporarily outrun their captors, the fear of the True Fae is never far behind them, and no Changeling can be sure if their freedom will last, or if the man who sells them out won't be their best friend... The Good Folk is based on White Wolf's Changeling: The Lost. THE GOOD FOLK goodfolkmods post comment

[12 Jan 2013|02:03pm] Temptation Hotel MODS • RPG • OOC Taken Characters Rules/FAQs Positions and Application Drop Box The City that Never Sleeps has a new game in town. Temptation. Among the flashing neons a new sign brightens the sky. Large, inviting gold letters tower above the Vegas Strip - the newest, and most decadent resort has finally opened its doors. It's a place that could change your life! Here your wildest dreams could come true, or your darkest nightmares. You could win absolution, or loose your soul. Welcome to Temptation Hotel. Heaven and Hell have fought for dominion over mankind since Satan's fall, and every few centuries the two sides come together to see just who currently holds the majority ground. It's an event no self-respecting denizen of either side would miss; the chance to take human form and stand firm with their friends and allies. On God's side, his most trusted Archangel, Gabriel, heads the charge, whilst Satan himself leads his troop into battle. They can be hard taskmasters, and neither will allow their followers to fall to the other side willingly, although losses are inevitable in any war. Obviously, Satan picked this particular location for their face-off, and sin is everywhere! The two factions share The Temptation Hotel Resort; above, in the penthouse levels, Heaven's inhabitants command the day spa and 'Salvation', an alcohol-free juice-bar and club. Below, Hell's minions govern the casino and 'Addiction', a decadent club known for its debauchery - and some of the best strippers on the Strip. It is here that the angels and demons, each with their opposite number, take human form and seek to tempt the human guests to their particular way of thinking. If they could also turn their opponents against them they are sure to be rewarded by their bosses favor. The scene is set for a spiritual battle that will be spoken of for centuries to come. Most importantly there is honor at stake, but also souls to be lost, or saved. The angels and demons aren't immune either; the longer the battle goes on for the easier it is for the angels to fall - the more humanity the demons gain. Even Gabriel and Satan aren't entirely safe - after all, this is war. Only one side can claim the ultimate glory! post comment

Golden Days: An AU Harry Potter RPG [12 Jan 2013|08:03pm] golden_days | goldendaysmod | goldendays_ooc Rules | Holds & Cast | Apply | Game Canon At any given time, there are a dozen projects in the Department of Mysteries that could destroy an entire world. One such project, headed by young researcher Hermione Granger, was nearing completion of Phase One. It dealt with a magical artifact known as The Veil, assumed to be the doorway between life and death. The truth was much more complicated than that, as Hermione and her team had discovered. Not only did the Veil mark a doorway between the living and the dead, it also acted as the gateway to other realities. Hermione was on the cusp of discovering why the Veil worked that way, when a spell gone wrong blasted through the Department, and sent Hermione sailing through the Veil. When she woke up, she realized immediately that something was wrong. This world was not her own. It was a quick realization, because staring down at her, perfectly alive (if bald), is Albus Dumbledore. golden_days gives players a unique opportunity to explore the "What Ifs" of a world where Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindlewald realized dream to rule the Wizarding World, and Tom Riddle is Headmaster of Hogwarts. Muggleborns are removed from their Muggle families and placed with proper Wizarding folk. Wizarding Great Britain is in the midst of a Golden Age of Wizardry, and there are some who would do anything to protect it. Game opens Jan 15th, and the first few weeks will be primarily a social game. The aim will be to get a feel for the characters in this setting, and to world build. A major game-wide plot will pick up in February. Prospective players can see this post for more info. post comment
