Ames

  • Name of site: Ames
  • How long it has been open: Since June 25th, 2006
  • Description: A slightly futuristic roleplaying game that revolves
    around the outbreak of the avian influenza and how the world reacts to
    it. Ames is a city built by Britain, France and Canada in an attempt
    to preserve something of humanity for future generations, if there are
    any future generations. Each founding country controls a portion of
    the city, Britain controls an organization called BIRD which is
    intellgience based, France controls FAINTS, Ames' version of a
    military and Canada has control over COUGH, the health care that the
    citizens receive. Kept inside a city so carefully guarded, it's kept a
    secret to prevent angry citizens of other countries from attempting to
    come in, possibly carrying the virus with them. The world's population
    is shrinking because of the birds and there's nothing that can be done
    about it except survive.

Hogwarts The Freedom

  • Name of site: Hogwarts The Freedom
  • How long it has been open: Jun 26, 2009
  • Classification: Human, Affiliate

Description: THE PLOT- Lets face it Hogwart's has never been safe. The mythical creaturse roam freely, the magical community had fought long and hard. Yet nothing seems to work. The order has all vanished. Gone up in flames shortly after Voldemort's reign had been ended. The deatheater's of old had been locked up, or simply put to death.

Yet still, something's gathering upon the horizon. Something dark, something sinister and definitely something powerful. Everyone can feel it. Something is coming and neither the magical community or the mythical creatures, seem to be prepared.

When will there be freedom for everyone to be equal once more? When suddenly two members who had worked along side in the Ministry has broken out attempting to over rule the world.

Many deaths have suddenly started to break out, as these two powerful witch or wizards whose identities are currently unknown to the world at the current time are in battle against each other.

The views on how the world should work are completely different and so is beginning a war as one wishes for only pure born to rule the world trying to also rid of anyone with special powers of gifts...

The other believes only half breed and magical creatures should belong to earth or anyone unique and has a special talant is ok to live!.

And so while the ministry is attempting to keep a low profile and keep anyone form finding out, some sneaky git has betrayed them and given word to the daily profit and panic starts to uprise at the sudden word of war begins. A lot of people are forced to hide what their blood status is in fear for their lives, while others rise up proudly and unafraid. There are also those who are in loyalty to these two powerful beings and would do anything to be by there side as they try to recruit half breeds or pure borns to help destroy anyone who isn’t of their group.

Wonder who’s side you belong to? When will the fighting and killing stop?

When the Dark Lord was defeated, the dark mark etched into followers arms vanished with him, leaving no way to distinguish who was a Death Eater. Many now live their lives pretending as if they know nothing. People are still suspicious of them but right now, it is out of their hands. With all this happening in the wizarding world, the Ministry is able to cover up the few unexplained deaths that they had encountered recently. There is talk amongst some that the Death Eaters are taking their revenge on innocent wizards but there is no solid proof to connect anyone to anything. Find out what is really going on in the Wizarding World.

Cue the Sun

  • Name of Site: Cue the Sun
  • How long it has been open: August 2009
  • Classification: Old School Human
  • Description: 

Clear Lake, Iowa. The cutest little town you ever did see.
Looking at it now, through all of those old home videos, it's faded and old, but still the same lake-side town its always been. The year is 1959. This town, this year, it's the location of the day when the music died. Such a sad story, really. Clear Lake is the hometown for Surf Ballroom; the place where Buddy Holly's last show was. This plane crash is the one that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. Richardson. That crash changed all of Clear Lake. I guess that the people of the town felt guilty. It's quite depressing, I would say, that it all happened here. Unfair, even. The country, and the town, is finally getting over all of this. And, that, is the best part of all.
This town is a happy one, filled with all of those hippies and peace-keepers. The lake keeps everyone sane. The water must have a calming effect or something, I swear. It's like, everyone knows everyone here, but because it's so small, there's always new people coming, making new introductions. Happiness, sadness, anger, peace, love. You can get everything here. I'd say that there's your town crazies, the rich snobs, the lowly hobos, and the comfortable middle-class folk.
One of the best things about this town (other than the people and the lake, of course), would be all of the shops. They're owned by the citizens here, and practically every job there is in this town is working in one of those shops, or something dealing with the lake. Listing all of them would be hard, but here goes. There's the rehab center, the salon, the dress shop and boutique, the music/art center, the golf course, the pottery shop, those farms on the outskirts of town, the vintage Irish pub, all of the restaurants and soda shops, a handful of churches, and the only coffee shop in the county. All of these places say something about the town.

Clear Lake, Iowa is a real town, and that crash really did happen. If I could live anywhere, it would be here. Well, other than New York, but whatever. It's the place to be. This RPG is set in 1959, obviously, and you can pretty much do anything you want. Go crazy, darlings. It's all about fun here.
