RITES OF PASSAGE

MODS | RULES | FAQ | TAKEN | HOLDS | APPLICATION | RITES OF PASSAGE

Rites of Passage is an iconic super power game focusing on characters of remarkable ability. What they choose to do with these talents are, of course, up to you - as are how they came by them. (Extraordinary humans without powers? Genetic mutations from birth? Acquiring powers from an influential outside element?) How do you live your life, when you're gifted (or burdened) with extraordinary powers?

Our characters are divided into several different affiliations:

- The Night Guard is a privately/government funded organization of heroes endorsed by the public sector. These are the "heroes" lauded in the press, and probably get inadvertent credit for some good work done by other parties.

- Those who do not want to be affiliated with the government but still want to do good are known as The Vigilantes - they answer to no standard. All heroes come in shades of grey; those who may act in unsanctioned ways (aka the ends justify the means) may find themselves thrown in with this lot. The Vigilantes are unfunded, unless individuals can find private backers.

- The Chaos Syndicate is an under-the-table corporate-funded criminal organization which has a certain amount of padding from local and federal law enforcement. They are full-time career criminals with no financial concerns.

- Those evil-doers who would rather work on their own terms are known as The Sinners. They may also be the criminals the Chaos Syndicate would not “hire”. Unfunded and unprotected, the group has to come up with creative ways to cause their chaos and not get caught.

Of course, there are unsuspecting humans and those unaffiliated with either group.

ABOUT US

Rites of Passage is a game for the casual, busy roleplayer. There will be no activity checks, but we would like characters to become active within one week of game acceptance. Due to our laid-back setting, we currently have no character cap, but we do ask that you keep your character count reasonable.

We accept only mature, capable, trustworthy, self-confident players who are eager to facilitate plot advancement and foster creativity among their fellow writers. This does not mean, however, that the mods are nonexistent, or that the game will be inactive. We will be happy to provide plot and fun throughout the game, and there will always be something to do!

GAME BEGINS AT 15 CHARACTERS. 9/15
