| You're living in America at the end of the millennia. . . and you're not alone. Alphabet City We're in the year 1996 and the colorful residents of the East Village in Manhattan are facing the issues which challenge poor Bohemian artists in the mid-90s. Drug abuse, HIV, prostitution, starvation, death, life, and love. However, they find that they aren't alone, friends are all around, and there is always coffee to be drunk, issues to be discussed, and art to be created, good and otherwise. Come join our cast of canon and original characters, featuring a strong sense of community and creativity and find that you're not alone either. Other notes:Based on the Broadway musical RENT, set post-canon, though slightly AU to keep Angel alive. We have evolved and changed over the past two years from a fandom RP to a RL RP with some fandom characters. We are lucky to have a great group of OCs who are keeping the plot moving and changing quickly, and we always welcome new writers and OCs with open arms. We also have a brand new board! It's pretty and blue and still has that new board smell!! Come see. It's pwetty!!! |

![]() Fast-forward to the next generation. The world; it lies in ruins. A shadowed shell of what used to be. Humanity struggles just to exist, forced to the bottom of the food chain. Trying to find a new way in the world. ![]() We were battered and broken. Dragons rule the earth; beautiful in their strength. They have taken us from the skies. Reigning down their vengeance, leaving us to pay the price for our ancestor's sins. ![]() Saved by our own mutations. Some wonder if it was better to live as the lower class or to just die. To be turned into weapons, no more than slaves to the psionic lords. To live a life that is not yours to live. ![]() A new forum with heart. Focused on the enjoyment of writing with seasoned and friendly staff. Offering your choice of four different races with endless possibilities for expansion. New plots available for all members. We are all caught up in Chasing the Storm Will we ever have time to remember our dreams? |

![]() THE YEAR IS 2057 Harry Potter had a dream, and in that dream he saw purebloods, halfbloods, and muggleborn children getting along. After he defeated Lord Voldemort, he believed that that dream would soon become a reality. Peace came over the wizarding world, and everyone believed that things were finally beginning to come together. Harry had his children, felt pleased with what he had done, and stepped down to let those of the next generation continue what he had strive to achieve. Even Kingsley Shacklebolt, the Minister of Magic, stepped down and handed the reigns over to the next Minister. This Minister happened to be a Pureblood, but he was perfect for the job, or at least we thought he was. Hidden agenda, that's what they called it. His name was Septimus Flint, and while he looked like the best candidate for the job on the outside on the inside Flint still had some of that Pureblood prejudice in him, though he honestly tried to suppress it and rule justly. Then there was, of course, the fact that Septimus Flint was too weak of a Minister. Enter Jove Montague, the leader of the Mors Mortis and best friend to Septimus Flint. For a long time the Mors Mortis was simply a club for Purebloods who believed that they were still, to put it bluntly, the shit. With Flint's love for his best friend, and Montague's need for vengence, Flint was thrown into a very deadly situation. He had the choice - the wizarding world, or his best friend. Unfortunately, he chose the latter which resulted in the little Pureblood fanclub to become a full-blown deadly force - much deadlier than the Death Eaters ever were! Soon the halfblood and muggleborn people were being caught in raids, and rounded up like sheep. Septimus Flint could only look on in shock and disgust as his best friend went on this bloody rampage, but he could only do so much for the poor people. It was his decision to keep the now fearful people in the wizarding world instead of throwing them out to fend for themselves, its was his decision to keep Jove from killing them all off by having what he considered "a fair trail". Despite all of this, he was silently pleased that the Purebloods were once again on top, though he didn't enjoy the bloodshed. Many lost their lives in the first few raids, and it caused an uproar. Some time after those raids Septimus lost his wife, Drusilla. Albus Potter was brought to have a trail on suspicion of these charges, and was soon put to death - put to death by a bunch of Purebloods. Since then, things have quieted down a bit. Those of "impure blood" are too afraid to do anything that may cause a riot, especially with the Mors Mortis as deadly as they are. However, one man has finally had enough. His name is Gideon Sloper, the son of Lily Potter who lost her life after a raid gone wrong. He is sick of this injustice, and since Septimus Flint refuses to do anything about it, he and a group of rebels have decided to take it upon themselves to bring this world back to the way that it used to be, back to the way that Harry Potter dreamed it would be. So the question is, are you born to resist? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ’ ‘ BORN TO RESIST |
