Xemplify - An X-Men AU

DATE LAST UPDATED: August 30th, 2008
Name of the Game: X-Emplify: An X-men RPG
Format: AIM & Journal Comment
Genre: X-Men Movie-verse AU
Contact info: [info]xemplifymods
Premise Summary: To put it simply, this is an X-men game that slides in somewhere after the first movie and skews off to the side. Made by those who are dissatisfied with the movie continuum and who would prefer to see more comic influences in the game, we have completely disregarded movies two and three though their story concepts may be played out at some point because, in essence, they would be fun to play. OCs are welcome and the game is in full swing. The time frame is somewhat mod-controlled (two weeks "real time" is equal to one week "game time") to accommodate those with real life obligations - school, family, etc.
Age limit: None, but please understand that adult situations may occur. PG-13 to R rating at the moment.
Starting date: July 2008
Other details:

Nightworld RPG

Date last posted: First post
Name of the Game: The Night World
Format: Journal threads and AIM
Genre: Supernatural / L.J. Smith verse.
Contact info: The Nightworld Mod - Click Link
Premise Summary: Vampires, witches and shapeshifters have existed since the dawn of evolution, but only recently have they stayed in the shadows, with normal jobs, normal cars, normal families. Hundreds, even thousands, of years ago, these supernatural beings ruled over humans with an iron fist, feeding off humans, making them servants and slaves. It all stopped abruptly several hundred years ago. Since then, members of the Night World have lived alongside humans, but never revealed themselves to the human race as an individual or whole-- the first rule of the Night World is that you can never tell a human about it. You certainly can't use your powers to dominate humans, like in the old days. But some want that way of life back. Unfortunately, there are some hitches-- the biggest being Soulmates, the existence of what's called a "silver cord" that links two people together, binding them forever. It's a love thing, and there are no boundaries for soulmates-- they can exist between humans and vampires, or vampires and witches, or shapeshifters and zookeepers. There are no boundaries and this causes some serious problems for members of Circle Midnight who happen to discover they have a human soulmate. Many of them defect to Circle Daybreak.

The Night World exists alongside the day world, the world of humans. Most witches, shapeshifters and vampires have a brilliant facade in place-- for example, the vampire psychiatrist who can feed on his patients after hypnotizing them as part of "therapy", or the exotic dancer who seduces men and takes them for more than just a ride. But while the Night World seems to exist alongside humans, there are certain places-- clubs like the Black Iris, for instance-- only members of the Night World know about. Certain rituals and ceremonies the witches are present for, out in the desert every year. There are symbols of the Night World that each member wears-- black flowers like irises, roses, dahlias, and others that Night World members have as a decal on their car, a pair of earrings, a drawing on a notebook in a schoolroom. There is a High Council of Witches, and one of Vampires, and another of Shapeshifters. An entire society of people pretending to be something they aren't.

Premise Summary: Sunnydale, California. A town that was, according to its residents, notorious for being a little...strange. It all started in 1989 when the town fell victim to, of all things, a rain of fire -- a meteor shower. The town was devestated. So many lives were lost, homes destroyed, and soon, Sunnydale became known as the meteor capital of the world. A shadow seemed to envelop the tiny town. Whispers of strange disappearances, disturbing murders, and questionable establishments have been spreading across the town. Something was coming. Everyone could feel it.

Welcome to Sunnydale, the town where nothing is ever as it seems. Let's hope you don't get eaten alive.
