Completed! gotham_gazetteCompleted!</i> vagrant_story - Vagrant Story fandom asylum. Pending/WIP. Please keep in mind that I will be retiring Vagrant Story and Gotham Gazette if no further interest is shown. And, Please feel free to join commedia; a personal project of mine, aiming to review and analyze comics (and other selected media) that feature DC Comics' The Joker. It is currently a WIP because I am still going through my 500+ hardcopy!issues collection. I do not download torrents/scans. Two important polls need to be voted on, as seen here explaining two routes the asylum's project can take. IE: spoiler free reviews, spoilerific reviews, etc. This asylum will continue to be WIP until further interest is shown. I am also open to affiliating with other comic book and/or Batman related asylums, except for RPGs. post comment

A few days later you think you back to your childhood and there's a memory that doesn't fit, it doesn't make sense and you try not to think about it because it sets you on edge and makes you feel uncomfortable. It doesn't stop. Maybe weeks go by, or maybe it's months, and someone turns up on your doorstep. Maybe they look official, or maybe they're wearing jeans and a T-Shirt, but they introduce themselves and tell you that they're from something called 'The Agency', they sit you down and if you're lucky they'll make you a cup of tea or pour you a drink before explaining it all to you. The memories are real, but they're someone else's, someone you always thought of as fictional. You're what they call a reincarnate, someone who's been reincarnated from this fictional person, brought into this world with magic that no one yet understands. They talk about a war that's being fought between two sides of reincarnates, the good and the bad. You're not told what side to pick or that you need to, but you know that a day will come when you and the person you used to be and are possibly becoming will need to choose.

the Light of May [24 Nov 2009|12:39am] promote_addme [lightofmaymods] On May 1st, 2009, nation leaders spoke together to reveal a truth to the world: the supernatural world is real. Vampires, werewolves, and more exist. They have been known to the government for a long time, and now they are coming out of the shadows - and they come with a message. They are not a threat. They mean no danger to humans. But there are other things out there that do. The days that followed changed everything most people believed they knew about the world, about history, and most importantly, about themselves. Celebrities, politicians, the family down the street - they began revealing their true identities, and telling the world what they really were. Missing people that had been turned against their will came out of hiding, and orginizations popped up to reunite them with their families. The revealing of the supernatural was penned in the media as the Light of May, as society made room for the supernatural. It wasn't easy. Many, human and supernatural alike, were terrified of what this would mean. Some wanted to keep the supernatural abominations down. Leading figures of both Democratic and Republican parties were revealed to be supernaturals themselves, and joined together to fight for civil rights for the supernatural. It is revealed that if the supernatural were wiped out, half of the entire world's population would be gone. Independent parties popped up through-out the country, opposing supernatural rights, and the fight goes on. But those aren't the only battles being fought. Why did the Light of May happen? If the supernatural has always existed, why are they only making themselves known now? For centuries, those with supernatural blood have been hunted, held, and killed - all for the benefits of their blood to hunters, and vampires who don't want to play by the rules of etiquette. There was a time when the angels, and even the fae, fought to protect them. But the fae have been extinct for hundreds of years, and worse - the angels seem to have disappeared. There is nothing fighting the demons of the world at bay now. The human race is at risk, and they are not alone. The Light of May is an original supernatural game, taking place in a time when the world is adjusting to the world that has been hidden since the beginning of time. The game is set in Ann Arbor, Michigan, centered around a fictional township called Scarlet Oak. Characters of many races are up for play, as are those trusty humans. The Light of May will be focusing on characters adjustments and the eventual struggle against demons, hunters, and more. The Light of May is for original characters only. Pre-existing fandom characters will not be allowed. WANTED: Teenage/young adult males, humans, vampires, and more!

[23 Nov 2009|07:25pm] promote_addme [mods_wp] You open your eyes to darkness. The air smells stale and confined. Lifting a hand, you feel glass, smooth and curved. Instinctively, your heart beats faster. A tentative push and it rises away from you, swinging to the side. Light filters in through windows above. You blink, your eyes adjusting to the shadowed room as you try to remember what happened. A thin layer of dust covers everything. There are no panes of glass in the windows. The virus. You remember now. They told you stasis was a precaution. Only a few weeks. A month, at best. Let them get the virus under control. Standing beside your pod, legs shaking from disuse, you feel a sense of apprehension creeping over you. Your heart beats even faster now. A table nearby has a pile of scrolls on it and, with a sense of foreboding, you cross to find the one with your initials on it. ~~~ The year is 2100. ~~~ Waking Pandora is an AU, post-apocalyptic Harry Potter RPG based partially on the History Channel series Life after People. One hundred years after humanity is destroyed by a Muggle-made virus, people - magical and muggle - are waking up in the stasis pods that had been humanity's bid for survival. Armed with only a small pack of things, your wits, and limited initial magical ability, you must learn to not only survive but also rebuild the world, brick by brick, and child by child. Anything is possible in Waking Pandora. Ask yourself this: Do you want to be a vital part of an RPG that is more than just commonplace and routine? Where the world you build is literally the new world of humanity and players can participate as much as they want? Then Waking Pandora is the place for you. Wake up to a world where Hope and the future is what you make of it. Waking Pandora Most Wanted: Susan Bones, Millicent Bulstrode, Cho Chang, Marcus Flint, Lee Jordan, Rabastan Lestrange, Ernie Macmillan, Lucius Malfoy, Parvati Patil, Harry Potter, Dean Thomas, Bill Weasley, Ron Weasley, Oliver Wood, Blaise Zabini and more.

Malfoy gasped, and Harry was confused as Malfoy looked down into his own empty hand as if he'd never seen it before then gulped and, with a great shudder, looked up into the cracked mirror and saw Harry staring at him over his shoulder.

Praelitis [22 Nov 2009|12:30pm] promote_addme [justforeverme] SOME PEOPLE ARE DEMONISED.... OTHERS ARE JUST DEMONS. In a world where religion no longer holds the sway it once did, demons and angels seem an archaic concept, beings of a bygone era. And maybe they are, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. Demons let people forget. After all, it's easier to cause trouble when your victims don't fight back. They faded into the background - some of them successfully integrated into society. They took on human form. And now, demons are everywhere - they could be your next door neighbour, they could be your best friend, your boss, your doctor. Whoever they are, they're plotting your downfall. Because the old tales had it right - demons, whatever type of demon - want one end. They want to break things. They live for it, exist for it, will kill and die for it. And, mostly, for centuries, they've wreaked their destruction and chaos from the shadows, but now the world is changing. Now the supernatural is restless, and they are rising. Spirits can be seen by all, lycanthropes have declared themselves to the world on national television. NOW IS THE TIME TO RISE AGAIN - TO TAKE THAT STEP BACK OUT INTO THE WORLD ONCE MORE. IF YOU DARE.

[22 Nov 2009|04:46am] promote_addme [busillis] THE OTHER SIDE MODS • RPG • OOC Have you ever craved something a little different without ever knowing exactly what it was? Well, here at The Other Side, we'd like to indulge you. Enable you, free you. We understand the appeal of crack!comms. Getting to create a character all your own with a little dash of canon thrown in. You always wanted the Malfoys to have a daughter. Or maybe you wanted all of the Weasleys to be boys? Or perhaps you were always a sucker for Severus/Lily and were always upset that they never ended up together. That's what crack!comms offer you. Freedom of creativity. We admire that. However, on the other side, we understand the appeal of a normal, plot based canon game. While not nearly as unrestricted as a crack!game, it gives you plot to work off of and create a story with. It brings you stability and sometimes it's just nice to sit back and play a canon character you happen to love, no alterations needed, right? So, at our game, we decided to dip our fingers in both soups. The Other Side is an Alternative Universe Harry Potter game. In 2001, with Second War alumnus returning for a sudden reunion, they quickly find themselves sucked into another world altogether. Being no common magic, everyone is alarmed and confused. Given housing of their own for the time being, they come to realize that they're not the only ones stuck in such an intensely abrupt situation. With them, huddled all under one Inn's roof, are various alumnus from the First War. Funny thing is, they don't seem to know anymore about what happened then the rest of them. This new world is an alternative take on how the war could have gone. With Bellatrix leading the head of a vicious group of assassins called the Moraie, she stands tall as conqueror of Britain with her husband Rodolphus and their adopted son, Neville. It seems as if she had a different take on how to deal with the "Chosen One" the Prophecy spoke of. Surely raising him would be enough to cancel it out? So she hopes. And, where is Albus Dumbledore in all of this, you might ask? Disappearing shortly after the crumbling of the Order and Bellatrix's rise to power in 1981, he has been neither seen nor heard from in twenty years. Aberforth was kind enough to take over the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts after his brother's disappearance and is hoping that with the arrival of all of these new visitors that perhaps reinstating the Order to what it once was will bring Albus back for good. | premise | rules | f.a.q | | available characters | wanted characters | | application | post comment

Gratitudes - DAY 365 - ONE YEAR!!! [19 Nov 2009|10:26pm] robynsummers [ mood | calm ] It's been a year! Some days were harder than others, when I couldn't think of 5 good things. In times of stress, I could only think of 3 or less, or the list sometimes got repetitive. Sometimes the list became a way of keeping track of events during the day, and perhaps that wasn't in the spirit of the 5 gratitudes. I tend to be more focused on events, I have to admit, or something physical as opposed to feelings or emotions. I can feel good or calm, but I tend to focus more on what caused the good feeling, if there's usually a reason. Sometimes I do feel calm without a discernible explanation or cause. :-D I should probably focus on these feelings more, when they do occur (rarely, but still important). So, things I'm grateful for! You, my awesome friends! Thanks for being willing to open your lives to me, and trusting me. I've enjoyed reading your entries, and living vicariously through you. Thanks, also, for the support you've given me. Not just during the past few days, but whenever I've been distressed since we've befriended each other. I'm also grateful for my friends in person, who are also awesome. They're good people. Using multiple swipes during lunch to get extra chips, a boiled egg and extra juice. Eating some Girl Scouts cookies -- Caramel cookies and Peanut Butter cookies! A good, involved discussion about Tuesdays with Morrie in psych class. Feeling calmer today. Being trusted enough by someone they confided in me about feelings of dissatisfaction and some values they held dear. Yeah, Hulu... >_> 2 comments|post comment
