olympians rpg

Before there were vampires, before werewolves and broomsticks, books, and films, and comicbooks...

The ancient bards sang epics of a world where the gods were at the root of things, a world where the three sons of Kronos drew lots and divided the rule of the cosmos -- a world where the immortals were revered and feared.

The time has come for the gods to rise once more...

OPENING WITH FIVE CHARACTERS

Wanted: Ares, Athena, Demeter, Eros, Hades, Hera, and MORE!

Apartments For Rent
VACANT. The Phantom was born to a radical, religious woman, who thought he was the spawn of Satan, and she raised him locked in a small room under their house. He is a musical prodigy, but he's also charmingly deranged. He's heard Christine Daae singing through the doors of her apartment, and he's obsessed with her. He's currently sponsoring The Gingerbread Wo/man in the record business, but he has a reputation for taking advantage of his clients' talent.

VACANT. Van Helsing is a well-traveled young man with a lifelong talent for the occult. His younger sister was murdered by Dracula, and he has tracked the man to the building, even though he doesn't know his identity yet. He's very interested in Mina Harker, but something is drawing him to the The Baba Yaga, and he has knowledge about the The Big Bad Wolf that he just can't explain. Chicken Licken, on the other hand, he just can't handle being around. This character is an incarnation of Emil Rothe.

VACANT. ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE TENANTS.

Premise:
There is an apartment building in New York called 'Bellum Letale.' Most people ignore its auspicious name, though they would be advised to pay more attention to its meaning.

It is a strange building.

Every man, woman and child in the building is a reincarnated fable, the stories told to human children for hundreds, sometimes thousands of years. Once very real, the fables began to fade as science and reason dispelled the probability of their existence. They have all been reborn in human forms, though their essence remains, waiting to be awakened at the right time, in the right place.

Now is the time - Bellum Letale is the place. As their lives connect and weave together, as they follow their petty desires and long-held grudges, they are, all of them, on the brink of disaster. Their Landlord knows their every move, and the building they live in seems to have an agenda of its own. People are tortured, people die, people plot behind each other's backs and sneak around and cheat. They love, they fight, they draw blood. This is not the fairy tale you remember being told.

Not So Far Away...
A Modern Fairy Tale RPG

MOST WANTED CHARACTERS


Robin Hood, The White Rabbit, The Evil Step-Mother, Beast, and Hansel


For as long as anyone can remember, the City has always been one of the largest metropolitan centers in the world. It has had its share of glory and decline, but none so great as the age in which Oz Corp was first founded and what followed after. Michael Ozma was no man of magic, but he might as well have been for the technological wonders he brought to the people of the City. He invented a software interface so advanced it seemed uncrackable and reshaped the corporate world in the City. Even thirty-six years after his death, his revolutionary ideas are still inspiring work on Oz Corps newest water-powered engine.

Now, Ozma's three surviving daughters rule over this once great Metropolis, and the Gilded Age is long past. OzCorp has become corrupt, and the City has fallen from it's glory days. Crime and drugs now rule the streets, though some aristocrats still live above it all.

Inspired by folk-lore and fairy-tales, Not So Far Away is a unique Role-Playing World that incorporates characters from fairytale, folklore, and mythology from around the world and brings them into this ever-expanding universe. The only rule is that every character represents an arch-type from another story, whether that be Prince Charming or the infamous Mr Toad. Having trouble conceiving a character of your own? We have a long list of 'pre-made' character concepts that will play an important role to the overall plot of our story. Just remember, that everyone has a tale to tell, and every tale has it's own heroes and villains.

Oh Marvelous: A Marvel Universe Game [07 Jan 2010|06:32pm]

Oh Marvelous: A Marvel RPG
"Did you ever have one of those lives?"

You inhabit a fantastical universe where anything can happen. Super powered beings exist, and living a sane life is no easy feat for anyone. In such an extraordinary world, an average day can be ruined by the strangest of threats; be it viral zombies, megalomaniacal criminals or assassination attempts. All just part of a normal day in a very abnormal world. You don’t even glance up at the shrill whine of sirens or the roar of a giant monster a few blocks over. In the sky above a caped character is flying towards the fray; a member of some super hero team or perhaps a lone vigilante. Maybe the monster is a mythical creature or an invading alien or a minion of the latest super villain. A van is hurled down the street followed by another angry howl but you go casually about your business- buy your newspaper, sip your latte- and mutter cynically to yourself,

"[info]oh_marvelous."

Oh Marvelous is an age 18+, social, thread based, third person, AU Marvel RPG played in real time (quite a mouthful). The game is set in present day. Although the game is New York centered, action takes place in locations all over the world. Plot is primarily player driven with occasional inclusive plots that affect the entire game. This game does not follow any set timeline or particular Marvel continuity. That means that pretty much anything goes.

Hiya! I'm looking for a female, age 18-20 with dark brown hair and brown eyes. The hair can be straight, wavy, with bangs, etc but the brown eyes are a must have. She's of the privileged crowd, meaning she's rich, snooty, and can be pretty bitchy. She's also an athlete, so someone with an athletic build but who also can look elegant. Actresses are preferred but I'll consider models too.

Thanks in advance!

The Emerald City




Between the Puget Sound and Lake Washington lies the beautiful city of Seattle. The largest city of the Pacific Northwest, the city is a major location for commerce, culture, and perhaps adventure. However, past the mountainous and green borders lies a darker, more sinister underground which is resurfacing after years of dormancy.

Organized crime has begun to increase their profits by selling both illegal and prescription drugs. Prostitution, in certain locations of the city, is on the rise. Once a popular tourist attraction, the Seattle underground is now closed off after a spike in violent crimes. Now, those who venture to these former tourist locations venture at their own risk.

There are still those who refuse to leave the city, despite the rise of crime. Many flock to gated communities, or the safer suburbs while still commuting to the city for work. How will the people react to these changes? That is entirely up to you.

Every version of the story is different. The conversations, the tiny details; they're all told in their own way, with different twists and turns and points delivered to properly execute the tale. The story has changed over time, repeatedly leading those belonging to different cultures with opposing beliefs clashing over the subject for hundreds upon hundreds of years. In the end, however, the story never really matters. It's the name, the significance, the idea of what he represents that strikes nothing short of pure terror into the heart of man.

Lucifer. The fallen.

As the angels tell it, it was his refusal to bow to humanity that brought on his fate. He believed that the angels were better, finding God's favoritism toward the mortal beings that walked the earth to be nothing short of distasteful. In turn, Lucifer chose to rebel by wickedly twisting a human into a demon. Rather than bringing forth the change in order as he had hoped, Lucifer instead found himself being punished by God for his disobedience. Delivered from the heavens, Lucifer was forced into a new home - a seemingly impenetrable cage trapped within the fiery depths of Hell. Six hundred seals bound Lucifer to his cage. Six hundred. Only sixty-six, if done correctly, would be required to break in order to free Lucifer from damnation.

Thousands of years later, as prophesied, a righteous man shed blood in Hell. Against the torment that found him in the pits, Dean Winchester began to crumble. The very first seal was quick to follow, breaking the pathway to all others like it open to those who sought to free the fallen from his chains at last. Demons began to rise up, led by Lilith - Lucifer's First, the very human that he twisted into a demonic form that brought forth his own downfall - to break the seals. At the same time, perhaps the first in thousands of years, angels too began to route themselves toward the seals to oppose any and all who dared attempt to destroy them. A silent battle, unknown to most of humanity, waged on between the angels and demons.

In the middle of it all, stood two brothers. Each with a role to play, both with the best of intentions at heart. With the angels pushing at one side and a demon guiding the other, the Winchester brothers, too, fought against the demons, steadily gunning their way toward Lilith. The Winchesters were key players in the struggle between Heaven and Hell. That had been anticipated from the beginning. What no one expected was for the impossible to occur: while bordering a little ways short of the halfway point, Lilith destroyed the thirtieth seal and, upon doing so, unknowingly shattered a barrier between worlds.

Soon afterward, people from those worlds began to appear out of thin air.

By 2000, vampires manage to take dominant control as the leading race in the food chain. For centuries, they lived on earth as the secret minority, before eventually outnumbering humans five to one. It was then, that humans were taken in federally to be housed like livestock in "cattle" farms. Their blood in return, is harvested and sold in your local grocery store. Unfortunately, the supply and demand between the significant number of vampires, to that of required humans, made the situation sticky. People were fighting, killing one another to get enough of that high priced blood they need in order to survive. It was deemed the most violent time in American history, and in time the government took action. Employed, well behaved vampires were given fifteen pints of blood with their tax return, enough time for V.A.M.P (Vampires in Armed Missions for the People) to be formed.

It was common knowledge that there are small villages of humans scattered around the world. Most notably, a rather large colony of humans are concentrated in Northern Russia, who have become quite adept in regard to vampire attacks. However, V.A.M.P discovered groups of people in the Amazon, as well as in some Canadian territories. Quickly they attacked, capturing 300 humans for breeding programs and cattle farms in the US. Not enough to feed everyone, but enough to lower the blood rates to a reasonable 10 dollars a pint.

Things are not as they might seem. Within the vampires, a social rift has formed between the lineage vampires (those born), and the tainted/sired vampires (those "given the privilege"). V.A.M.P still deals with the finding of humans, but their goals have been changed from within the social lineage elite of the government. The two classes have pivoted themselves up for failure, each side wishing to come out dominant in the end. Under the control of these elite individuals, V.A.M.P has become corrupt, virtually becoming a group of federally funded terrorists, stationed in Washington D.C. Their goal is a simple one; decrease the population, destroy those who don't cooperate, and save the lineage race. Ironically, most individuals are highly paid sired vampires. But then, what social group would risk the loss of their own? (FINISH?)
