Oh, it's a common topic that's been visited a dozen times before. You and I both know the drill! School is where cliques form and the survival of the fittest is taken into a twisted mentality. Its where drama is sparked on every individual day. Well, here there is no dramatic happening in these teens' lives which make them all bond together. There's nothing that makes them suddenly fall in love. They aren't trapped in a house together. They aren't forced to be around each other. Really, there's nothing to cement these kids with one another. However, they're united by a single characteristic. They each belong to cliques. They each find it difficult to break free from the boundaries they created for themselves, yet...they need only remember that cliques are paper thin.

PAPER'CLIQUES

Paper'Cliques is a high school role play centered around a gossip site. We aim to have a small, close-knit community. Canons and originals available!

A boarding school RPG with a literary twist.



RULES ₪ FAQ ₪ APPLICATION₪ CURRENT CAST ₪ THE TOWN ₪ LOWOOD ₪ MOD JOURNAL

The school of Lowood in the tiny town of Castalian Springs is an intensely private school hidden away near the West Coast. However, what appears to be simply a high-class boarding school is much more than that. There is something unusual about the students and staff of this school—each of them is the reincarnated soul of a long-dead author. There's more to the game than this, though; for some time literary apparitions have been appearing in the Springs, in the form of characters, places, and items straight from the original stories of these authors. As the fictional world collides with the real world, the students of Lowood are required to divide their time between sorting out their relationship status, avoiding the teeth of Dracula, and finishing their homework assignments on time. This RPG is well-established and has a lively community of friendly players—and talented writers to boot. Play is most frequently done through IM, and the game has plenty of room for your own plot ideas and development with literary apparitions. Questions, if not answered by the links above, can be directed to castalianmods@gmail.com.

The Turn of the 1960s brought about a change that no one could have expected. Thanks to a deadly virus, civilization would have disintegrated were it not for one simple fact: Humans were not alone. When they realized that their numbers equaled what was left of humanity, Inderlanders--as they called themselves--stepped into the light. Witches, vampires, werewolves; they were all real and they had been living next door the entire time.

The Hollows is an original character supernatural RPG that takes place in an alternate universe present day. The RPG, which is both plot and character driven, takes place in the city of Cincinnati. Humans and Inderlanders live side by side, some more peacefully than others.

Maybe you should join the force, huh?
Welcome to Obsidian City where the sun never shines, the crime never sleeps and love never dies.

A dark city in all sense of the word, Obsidian City is lucky to see one day of sunshine. If the city is dark at night, it isn't much better during the day. Too much smog and cloud blocks out the half decent light that struggles in between the skyscrapers. People make do though, possibly a little angrier than those who live under the undivided sun, a little more miserable, a little more hopeless. This is no city for the weak, and it certainly isn't a tourist hot-spot.

Obsidian City was never a shining city on the hill, it was built and born as if already crumbling down. Beneath the heavy, dark clouds that rarely seem to let up, lies a sprawling mecca of theft, corruption and greed. It really is no wonder that in such sunlight starved streets, there is little light to be had in the city’s inhabitants. Each jewel-named district hardly lives up to its name: The Ruby District, a self-sufficient community of its own, ruled by whores, who are the law. The rich are safely tucked away in The Onyx Towers, far from their poorer brethren, the utterly impoverished who languish in the Ivory Narrows.

Outside of The Ruby District, where the only laws are their laws, it is not the oft corrupt and always under funded police force that holds the most sway in the run of Obsidian City. No, the city is divided up and controlled by three major crime families, in close environs that seem to speak of a constant threat of war between two or more of the ruling families.

The Russians led by the Petrovskii Family, from their base of operations, Duma, an upscale nightclub known for its beautiful women and for the illegal deals made in dark back rooms, lord over the Diamond District. The Irish led by the O'Donnell Family, from the Irish pub that the first O'Donnell to come to America founded, long ago, loud and busy and full of their history, control the Emerald District. The Italians led by the Pavoni Family, from their Italian family restaurant in the center of the Topaz district, and come with as much flourish and ceremony in both their illegal deeds and their lifestyle.

The Families are not the only ones that the populace should fear, as there have been recent whispers that there is a serial killer preying upon the inhabitants of the city, lurking in the shadows and bringing death with them.

As if the population of Obsidian City didn't have enough on their plate, they now need to look over their shoulder at every step.

And so do you.

Feel the Magic

Since the beginning of time the creatures of magic have been awed, wanted, and hunted down. Religions fade and fall. Fears grow and abate. The beings of this world change, grow, and they adapt.

Lost in the world grander than its dreams, a small town beckons you. Its name is Crystal Falls, nestled in the middle of one of the largest lakes of the south. The only way in is through boat or flight. There are others here like you. They live normal lives, adapting their ways as you have had to do to survive with your freedom. You wonder how many of them know. You wonder just how long you all have until the fear grows, questions go unanswered, and the hunts begin. You wonder if the humans will be able to stay, as some wish to keep the island for the mythical creatures only.

For now, this town is safe, a haven for the mystical creatures of lore. They welcome you with open arms. Most are friendly like no other place in the world. More are coming, drawn to the power already here in this enchanted land, and by the powers of the ones long settled here. The promise of protection, friendship, family, normalcy, whatever it is you want out of your life is here and now. How long will it last? Who can you trust?

Welcome to Mystic Realm.

…It didn’t start with Adam and Eve…

Since before man has reckoned time, a war has raged between the followers of God, and those that were cast out of Paradise. Human souls are held in the balance- counted at the ends of their lives, to see which side is winning.

Are you one of the virtuous, inspiring and dealing Mankind down the path of goodness and purity?

Are you one of the vice riddled Damned, seducing mortals into debauchery and violence? Or one of the Mortals, who lives their lives, blind to the plays of Divine power all around them?

Between Gravity is an intermediate/advanced Role playing game, with two opposing factions using their wiles and wits to lure Mankind into their hands.

Oh Marvelous: A Marvel RPG

You inhabit a fantastical universe peopled by super powered beings and mere mortals alike. Here, living a sane life is no easy feat. In such an extraordinary world an average day can be ruined by the strangest of threats, be it viral zombies, megalomaniacal criminals or alien invasions. It's all just part of a normal day in a very abnormal world. You don’t even glance up at the shrill whine of sirens, the whir of helicopter blades, or the roar of a giant monster a few blocks over. In the sky above a caped hero is flying towards the fray; a member of some metahuman team or perhaps a lone vigilante. Maybe the monster is a mythical creature or an extraterrestrial or the latest super villain's favorite minion. A van is hurled into a building that shivers and another angry howl fills the air as you go casually about your business- buy your newspaper, sip your latte- and mutter cynically to yourself, "Oh Marvelous."

Oh Marvelous is an age 18+ social AU Marvel RPG. The game is thread based, third person, and is played in real time. Oh Marvelous is primarily set in present day New York City, though play occurs in locations all over the world. Plot is mostly player driven with occasional inclusive plots affecting the entire game. This game does not follow any set timeline or particular Marvel continuity, so in this universe pretty much anything goes.
