ASWW was founded in the year of 1692, in the Ozark region, due to the occurence of the Salem Witch Trials. The school, hidden between mountainous and heavily wooded regions, is made from solid brick and stone, as is nearly all of the cozy wizarding town of St. Aguara's, only a mile south of the campus. A good fifty miles, in every direction, is warded with spells and enchantments to keep muggles away. Originally, it was a place that magical families of the North American region could stay, to keep safe from the hunters determined to eradicate them, and later it became the school we know of today. ASWW is still a safe haven for all magical families, and the families of muggle-borns, in times of war, the school building coping on its own with each fluctuation in the resident population. As the American Regions were more or less out of reach, Voldemort (his name still brought fear) and his reign never really affected this Hemisphere. Though both he and his Death Eaters have fallen, it is only time until a new problem arises for the wizarding world, possibly far more dangerous than Voldemort had ever been.

It has been 25 years since the fall of Voldemort on that fateful June night at Hogwarts, and although it took awhile to rebuild the Wizarding world to what it once was, the world has been stronger than ever. With the help of so many people that now were on the side of good, the Ministry was able to get up and working once again, under the watchful eye of their wonderful new Minister of Magic, Kingsley Shacklebolt. And the little Wizarding school was able to go back to what it was put there for; teaching young Wizards and Witches how to be just that. They took in students from far and wide, different and alike, from Wizarding blood or Muggle blood. And the school grew and rebuilt itself to be the greatest school in History. The Landing is a spot on the grounds of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and spot built in the safe woods just on the edge of the Black Lake, far from Hagrid's Hut and the Black woods of the Forbidden Forrest, hidden from the sight of the feared Caretaker and the Headmaster and his Professors. It was built by mischief makers that had attended the school after the War, put there for the sole purpose of being a secret meeting spot for friends, groups, or couples, for any use from parties to plotting to just enjoying the evening sky. It hasn't been discovered yet, but the students are still careful. The only way to get to it is Invisibility cloak--which is rare--or the hidden passageway on the fourth floor back corridor, behind the statue of a dancing House Elf. There is a crazy House Elf that likes to cause problems, and there are some new and exciting things to come! Join if you enjoy a social, friendly playing environment that's been around for just under a year now! We are going into our second school year! |

Located in the western part of the state, this mid-sized town has mostly failed to live up to its grandiose name. It's big enough that no one knows everyone else, small enough that a new face is noticeable. The leaves are lovely in the fall, tourists stop through with reasonable regularity, and nothing much ever changes.
Or didn't.
Some of the townspeople have dreams. Recurring dreams about blood, and horses, and steel. About silken gowns, and hawking, and high spires. About loyalties and rivalries long faded into legend.
Most of them have shrugged the dreams off. They're only dreams. But things are beginning to change after all.
Britannia, NY is a brand-new Arthurian game set in the present day. Arthur has returned, but so has his sister-enemy, Morgan. Characters will have to come to grips with past life memories, choose a side, forge alliances -- and hope to prevail.

"….Voldemort's powerful now. You don't know who his supporters are, you don't know who's working for him and who isn't; you know he can control people so that they do terrible things without being able stop themselves. You're scared for yourself, and your family, and your friends. Every week, news comes of more deaths, more disappearances, more torturing … The Ministry of Magic's in disarray, they don't know what to do, they're trying to keep everything hidden from the Muggles, but meanwhile, Muggles are dying too. Terror everywhere … panic … confusion …" Across Europe the Wizarding Community lies in fear. Voldemort and his followers are on the rise, leaving behind a reign of terror in their wake. As his numbers increase, Wizards begins to grow more uneasy, increasingly choosing to fall prey to his Empire, out of fear, unwilling to stand up and fight. In spite of the increasing danger, a small group of vigilante Wizards has begun to pull ranks, daring to do what the Ministry fears to do; fight. The Order of the Phoenix is slowly growing into a force to be reckoned with, threatening not only Voldemort, but the Ministry itself. Change is on the brink and the students of Hogwarts. No longer will they be safe behind the confines of the castle, unaware to the real dangers of the world. They will soon be forced to make their own loyalties known; a decision that will affect not only the rest of their lives, but the entire Wizarding World. Amongst the darkness, these students are potentially the light needed to give the Order the man power to take on Voldemort’s forces. As both sides fight to gain support, one question lies: which side do you choose? Darkness Rising is a canon compliant Marauders Era RPG taking place in 1978. Game opened February 1, 2009.

"The time has come for us to fight. Fight back with every fibre of our being. Our freedoms, the very basis on which our country is run from day to day, are being threatened.

It is an individual duty for every man who can do it in any territory in which it is possible to do it, in order to liberate the lands of our people from their grip.

PROLOGUE |
There's an elite boarding school an hour away from San Francisco that's dedicated to the education of children with superpowers: Veritas Academy. Veritas takes these children in and helps them control their gifts - trying to turn them into productive members of society. The lucky few become heroes and villains that are respected and feared the world over, but the rest also have real stories to tell. They are known as businesspeople, lawyers, doctors, academics, nurses, and teachers. They are the people you know, but never stop to truly wonder about. There are success stories and failures that are known everywhere, but not everyone can be Superman. The majority of the students remain virtually unknown to the majority of the public as they go about their everyday jobs and lead their everyday lives. The Veritas Alumni Association decided to follow the trend that had been set by Livejournal, Facebook and MySpace, and set up their own social networking site. It became known as something that old students use to keep in touch with friends, watch their enemies and complain about their everyday lives. Yet in between the complaints, arguments and laughs that the students are having, something is beginning to interrupt their lives: Someone is killing alumni, and no one knows who's going to be next. |
Rules | Game History | Questions? | The Big Bad | Characters Disclaimer | Application | Players | Everyone has heard of the enigmatic date of December 21, 2012. Some model their lives around the cataclysmic change that is said to occur on that date. Some have decided that the world will come to an end, some simply think that the "world as we know it" will change. Sam Winchester has found evidence that this date isn't just another Doomsday Prophecy, it's real and it's happening. Events that were put into motion the moment Dean traded his life for Sam's are leading up to this event. He's seen the angels walking among men, he's seen the demons rising up through the ranks, and he's seen and been touched by real evil. The Five Satans have been walking amongst men for a millenia. Each generation reborn to take a form of a mortal who has somehow shaped the dark history of the world of men. Their day of reckoning is upon the world, and closer than anyone realizes. Sam and Dean Winchester have work to do. |
