Hi there,

Based on what you said Darkest Reflections has several of things you want.

We have three colleges, one power academy and several other exciting things to do.

Though we do have a Hogwarts school you do not have to attend it if you wish,

Here is our summary if interested:

Welcome to Darkest Reflections,
where not everything you see is real.
Welcome to a world where on the outside everything seems perfect,
yet on the inside it's anything but.

Perhaps you will enjoy a life in Manhattan, home of the rich and glamorous.
Or you might find yourself captivated by the rumors that roam around in France surrounding the spotting of a mermaid.
But beware of living in London where a war is brewing between the underground coven of vampires and the out casted breed of werewolves lurking about.

And let's not forget the children, those with powers, those with magic and those with money.
They still have lives to live, and how they end up is entirely up to you.

How will the mirror show you?

Well that's for you to decide.

But remember: the mirror sometimes lies.

=O You might be interested in Elenlond, though I can't guarantee anything. We're a medieval fantasy forum with a 100 word minimum, so it shouldn't affect your Rping too much. We offer any race that you'd like to join with.

Elenlond...

A land of mystery, beauty, and power.

In recent times there has been some upheaval as those of the free lands - known as both the Scattered and the Middle Isles - begin to fear the power that the deities exercise over the two main continents, Esiria and Soare. Although no god has endeavoured to conquer the free isles, the people still fear. And there is talk that some have formed groups in Esiria and Soare in support of removing the deities, those who invaded their homeland.

The deities did not choose Elenlond, although they certainly named it. After their original homeland, Mianor, imploded on itself and the world began to devour its own entity, the gods gathered as many of their surviving citizens as they could, pushing them through the largest of the rifts that had begun to form in Mianor. There they travelled, weary from their travels, uncertain of their future.

This time was known as The Great Migration.

It lasted for many weeks - perhaps even months; few kept journals of their journey, and many perished along the way - but eventually, there was an end in sight. The people of the old land plunged into the new and it was named Elenlond. Once they were settled, the people could only breathe:

Our Celestial Haven.

Elenlond has been around for several years, although it recently underwent renovations. Although we sport 60+ members, we are looking for active, dedicated people who will join and help activity to blossom. Our members are friendly, chatty, and we love new people. So, if you're interested, by all means join! We'd love to have you.

Canon List :: Overall Plot :: Advertise


18 years ago, a boy was born to one of the most powerful mutants in the world, and the leading doctor in genetics, Professor Charles Xavier and Dr. Moira McTaggert. David Charles McTaggert grew up with his mother on Muir Island while his father went back to New York to create what would later be known as Xavier's School for Gifted students.

As the boy grew, so did his jealousy at his father's inability to connect with him, whereas he was perfectly able to connect with his mutant students. Young David's powers came to light when he was 13, and with the powers came the boy's mental illness. In a fit of rage, the boy killed his mother, after learning the use of the Muir Island jets and how to get to his father.

With Moira dead, and Muir Island destroyed, the thirteen year old boy flew to New York, set on taking apart the entire mansion, along with its inhabitants, which included Jean Grey, Scott Summers, Ororo Munroe, Remy LeBeau, and Logan Howlet, along with younger students that Charles had started bringing into his school.

After a long a difficult battle that included X-Men and students alike, the boy was faced by an irate Jean Grey, who was prepared to use the full force of her powers to keep the boy from killing anyone in the mansion, however she was stopped by Charles.

With a smirk on his face, the boy killed his own father, however the strength that it took to kill Charles left David too weak to do much else. He left the mansion in ruins, but not before telling the X-Men that he would be back for them.

Currently, nearly five years after the death of their beloved Professor, the X-Men have reopened the mansion, keeping the superhero portion of it a secret even to the students. The Brotherhood has been formed by a blue skinned, redheaded morphing mutant named Mystique, and a precog named Destiny, after a prophecy shown to Destiny showed Mystique ruling the world as Homo-Superior. The only catch is the fact that David McTaggert was the brawn, while Mystique was the brain.

Where will you stand?
Will you stand with the X-Men, who have pledged themselves to their students and the world that hates them?
Or will you fight with the Brotherhood for David and Mystique's view of Homo Superior ruling supreme?


Sometimes, you must make a Sacrifice.

    What if one day you awoke but could not move? You tried to move, talk, smell, taste...but all in vein. There is only consciousness... and you are not alone. Suddenly your body moves, but it feels foreign, not of your will. You try to scream, but your lips are still. You can only exist, only watch from this prison as your life is lived by someone, something else... someone who was implanted and from which there is no escape.

I have a site which may interest you. It's a real life RPG, it doesn't have what you asked for, but it also doesn't have the things you didn't want in it.

It's a fairly intermediate site, and has been up for a few weeks now and still going.

If you would like to take a look at it, here is the link;

Lives and Crimes of NYC

Also, there are certain aspects of the site which are currently being tweeked to accommodate everyone, so if you think that there's something missing, feel free to point it out.

England is at war

The year is 1809. It is May.

Five months ago, the British were driven from the Peninsula, fighting every step of the way. But now... Now it is time to fight again.

Not all the British left. There is a small contingent in Lisbon, waiting for the arrival of Sir Arthur Wellesley. Can he take them from defeat to victory?

The story is ours to write...

The year is 1809. It is May.

Four years ago, the British fleet defeated France and Spain in battle. In the hour of victory, their leader was killed. Britain gained control of the seas... or did she?

There are rumours that the French are rebuilding their broken fleet, wishing to rise again. Will they succeed?

The story is ours to write...

Although we accept canon characters, we encourage people to play original characters or even historical characters. We're intermediate and although we are small, people are very active, both IC and OOC. There are new posts every day, so there is always something to do.

LittleRikku - July 4, 2008 02:24 PM (GMT)
As a site with a very good plot, i actually found it cool that it isnt too hard to get in to. It's a roleplay about spies in Vegas. ^-^

It's not hard to get into, especially since i like to talk to my members if they have any questions at all.

Las Vegas is where anything goes, and everything stays. All the secret affairs, gambling, it's where people go for time to just have 'fun'. But then, there's always cheaters to this system and sometimes, it's not always fun for everyone else.

Casino: Fatale is a Literate To Advanced roleplay forum about transparant societies underneath all the lights, and the fancy colors that Las Vegas holds. Two teams, FALCON, and RAVEN, oppose each other in pure hatred for one another, or at least, their leaders due to beliefs about the way things should be run. Main mission? To destroy one's organization before the other destroys yours. Some may think it's simple, and each group puts the main goal as 'Protecting Vegas'.

But there's more to the story than a simple fight and protect scenario. It goes into a deep history between the leaders of each team, and the original goal that both teams shared. Differences create enemies, and now you must decide on where your loyalties lie. And is what you're fighting for truely noble?

    Detroit. Already one of the most infamous and dangerous cities in the world. One wouldn't think that it would be possible for this city to become even more so, but it has.

    For years, the Colombians, Italians, and Russians had all held a shaky truce while they attempted to take their control over the city. Each 'gang' had their own specialty and each one was trying to rub out the other in subtle ways. The Colombian Cartel ran the best drugs, the Russian Mob had the best weapons and the Italian Mafia held great power in the city government. Unfortunately, they were always at war. One man, a great and respected leader from the old days, stepped up to bring peace to the city and offered a way to make the best of their strengths and weaknesses. Together, the three leaders from the three families and the revered leader were going to turn things around at a summit meeting in downtown Detroit. What happened then, no one can honestly tell you.

    Dead.

    It was all over the news for weeks. The one that they called the Don was found dead in his hotel room the day before the meeting when all of the families and their people were in town and on edge. With such a loss to their last hope, it seems that everyone is pointing the finger at the other. The police just blamed the families and their war but the families are blaming one another. Who could have done this? The Colombians? Well, of course they want to own the drug world but what would they do with the whole city? The Russians? Americans still like democracy, thank you. The Italians? Those pasta loving morons would turn the city into some backwards third world village! So then... who?

    If you listen very carefully, you can hear it.

The students of Forks High have graduated, Edward Cullen and Isabella Swan are preparing for their wedding, and the rainy little town of Forks is never going to be the same again.

As the wedding day draws ever closer, Bella's preparing herself for her transformation, determined more than ever to spend the rest of eternity with her beloved Edward. But since she learnt of Jacob's dissapearance, she can't help but want to try and reconcile with her friend. He was the one who got her through Edward leaving after all. Yet Jake wants nothing to do with her, still in mourning over the engagement even though he's come home. He's utterly sure that he's imprinted on Bella, and doesn't know how he's going to cope once the treaty is broken and she becomes a vampire. But has he really imprinted on her? Maybe that question will be answered when the Denali coven arrive in town for the wedding...

Speaking of the wolves, they've just discovered that they aren't the only wolves any longer as Sam comes across a young woman half dead in the forest surrounding the reservation. Taken back to the reservation, as soon as she recovers, she reveals herself as New York It Girl Cianna Winters. As it turns out, her family consists of a werewolf pack so huge that just her presence is placing the Quileute's in terrible danger. You see, Marcus Winters isn't known for his kindness, and the New York wolves are no strangers to killing humans, and they're determined to slaughter Cianna simply for the fact that she imprinted on a human. And word is, they've taken up residence in the town...

But not only that, the movement of vampires to Forks for the wedding has drawn a red-eyed coven to down. But it's not for the wedding that they're here. They're after Rosalie. This coven's leader is a ghost from Rosalie's terrible past that she believed perished the night she carved a bloody path through the New York Elite, took revenge on the men who left her for dead in the gutter. Anthony fought against the new born vampiress to protect Royce King, but she killed him also (or so she thinks) and since he realised what he was, he's stopped at nothing to find and destroy the woman who made him into what he is. With his coven behind him, they're going to track Rose down, and remove anyone that stands in their way to get what they want. And that includes the Cullens...

As Forks is set to become the epicentre of an all out battle between the wolves and the vampires, a vampiric Bella is going to be the least of the wolves' problems...

Well, RoM is fantasy/medieval, so I hope you like it! It most certainly won't die on you; with a running time of 7+ years, it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Fantasy is Reality . . .


Enter into a world divided.

With the fall of the Guilds, the Realm of Mystery descended into chaos, out of which rose two factions.

Noresh, place of life, preaches truth, justice, and honor.
Noctis, land of dark, tempts with the night’s honeyed poison.



Repelling and attracting, their dance is a delicate balance upon which the fate of the world rests. After all, there could not be night without day, or day without night . . .
. . . could there?



Yet now an even greater threat looms, and the two are caught in a shifty alliance that could fall apart with a single wrong move. Wanderers, unbound by pledges to either side, pursue their own agendas or seek to create their own power base. Others choose to unite with one of the two factions and test their worth from within. The promise to all beings has always been freewill, and the choice can be made only by you.

The Realm of Mystery is a freeform rpg where characters are the ones who create—or destroy—their world. Join Noctis, join Noresh, or set out on your own. Rise through the ranks or become the subtle shadow behind the throne. Throw havoc or negotiate peace—make friends or enemies—control magic or become a master of fighting—be a leader or a follower—blur the lines of reality to suit your needs. Create your character . . . . Create your destiny . . . . Create your world.

As an advanced roleplaying site, a "sample post" application is required to join. Once accepted, you will find active, supportive members who are helpful out of character and skilled roleplayers in character. Very few other sites are as long-running and creative as the Realm of Mystery, and nowhere else have individual members had the power to change and alter their world as they have on RoM. Join us, and learn the true meaning of magic.

The fire crackles as the dragons wake, finding themselves in a new world with a war on their hands. Their fallen comrades lie in ruin and they let their pain loose with a roar of anguish. Releasing their vengeance, they lay claim to a world that was once held with absolute certainty. But they are not the enemy. Confusion and prejudice has split this world apart. The cities burned, farmlands ravaged. There was only one hope - those who they had looked down on for years. Humanity had fallen to the bottom of the food chain, forced there by the beings they used to call freaks. Psionic, psychic, supernatural – they were the lifeblood of the new settlements. They protected the mere humans but only to use them. It is a shattered world, built on a foundation of blood.

CAN I BELIEVE WHEN I DON’T TRUST
all your theories turn to dust

    The mentally insane.

    Treated like lepers by those who claim to love them, the ones who beg them to receive treatment to correct their “bent” mental state. These so-called insane persons were, at one point of their lives, average human beings and by the standards of today’s society, considered to be sane. Then something happened. Something that caused the fine structures they built their lives around, the very foundation on which they had built their lives upon, to come crashing down around their ears with a deafening noise. Suddenly, they were no longer sane; they were a danger to society and must be treated, perhaps even cured, of their “ailments”, of their insanity - to have their sanity restored.

    But what is sanity? Is it a picture that’s been painted by the higher authorities, drilled into our heads over the last thousand years by those with careful hands and strategic minds? Or is it the way that everyone wishes the world to be? What if the insane are really the only sane beings on the planet and the ones who claim to be in the right mental state are truly lost, enveloped so deeply into the illusion cast around them that there is no way to draw them out? Is it possible that the ones who have escaped the clutches of sanity are on the right side of the line, the ones who have seen the light and tasted the glory of the real world? Or are they truly as crazy as society paints them to be? Are the insane really insane or have they just come to their true senses?

    Welcome to City of Delusion, otherwise known as Deliramenti Asylum for the Mentally Insane. Not only is it the most prestigious mental hospital in the state of Washington, but it is quickly becoming the most popular asylum in the United States, nonetheless the Western Hemisphere. Before the fire that spread throughout the hospital, claiming two of the wings and the maximum security cells, the institution was already well known. Established in 1966 by Dr. Reginald Davenport just outside the city of Seattle, Washington, the Deliramenti Asylum for the Mentally Insane started off as a rather small hospital, consisting of only twelve patients. But as the success stories of his patients grew to be known by the public, more started to pour in through the doors. Soon, grants were received and put to good use. The asylum’s fame, as well as Dr. Davenport’s, skyrocketed and continued onward until the hospital became the place it is today, consisting of three floors and an innumerable amount of wings, wards, and rooms. It was a prestigious place, having a lovely reputation for the honest and hardworking psychologists who connected with their patients, made it their life to make sure that everyone in Deliramenti received the same treatment.

    The hospital was well on its way to becoming the most recommended asylum in the United States when disaster struck. A horrible fire consumed two of the wings as well as the maximum security unit. The fire was so large, so out of control, that the entire hospital was forced to evacuate the building until the blazing fire could be extinguished. However, when the nurses and doctors were checking the roster, they noticed one very alarming thing: a good lot of the patients were missing; some of them were obviously killed in the fire, as nothing could have saved them, even if they tried, but most of the inmates managed to escape. As if the fire wasn’t the worst of their problems, it was soon discovered that almost all of the escapees were the residents of the maximum security ring, the truly twisted and deliciously insane persons who had a thirst for blood and a penchance for evil in the eyes of society.

    Only a few days after the fire, Dr. Davenport dropped dead. It seemed that his death was from the forces of nature, but the fire? Oh no, the police hired to investigate the scene soon learned that the fire was intentionally set, that it was arson. But who was the arsonist and why hadn’t the information been leaked to the press? The news of the escapees already had and panic was consuming the city of Seattle; it was no wonder why the police didn’t want that sort of information available for public knowledge - imagine the effect it would have upon the city at large! Soon, Deliramenti Asylum was back in order. Though it was chaotic, all the patients had rooms to stay in and the hospital was running as smoothly as ever. Leadership of Deliramenti passed into the experienced hands of one Dr. William Korsakov, a famed Russian psychologist who could do no wrong. He seemed like the perfect fit for the Head of the Asylum. Things continued normally: patients were admitted, treated and released like clockwork. The asylum was constantly in the headlines, which only caused their fame and their fortune to skyrocket, just as it had in the early days of the establishment.

    It has been a year since the fire tore through Deliramenti Asylum. There are still escapees on the run, using their clever albeit detached minds to evade capture. A task force has been established to help bring in the criminals. And it seems that the press and police force are just one step away from working together to solve the mystery of Deliramenti Asylum: everyone who is anyone knows that the fire was not an accident and that something needed to be done to round up all the escapees, who were continuously reeking havoc on Seattle, causing an inflation in crime. The only question that remains is how far are those of the press and police force willing to go to unlock the secrets behind the infamous Deliramenti Asylum for the Mentally Insane. Are they willing to risk their lives, their reputations, their sanity? One taste of delusion and you come back for more. Just take one step over the line, break the boundaries of sanity and cross into the CITY OF DELUSION. One taste of delusion and you come back for more.

DESTROY THIS CITY OF DELUSION
break these walls down, i will avenge.

It all began in 1692. There was so much death and destruction that families were torn apart, and neighbors became suspicious of each other. Many began to see the ruin humans could cause and fled the countries and cities of their youth in search of haven elsewhere. Some found their way to St. Anthony’s Island and the town of Little Salem.

Those who were considered mythical beings joined together for protection and survival and so began the Treaty of Three, a treaty designed to protect the humans as well as the vampires, the werewolves and the witches.

The rules were simple enough: no harm was to come to any human; no human should ever learn the existence of these groups; and no member of the treaty was to purposely hurt another member of the treaty. Any violation of these rules meant death for all those involved.

Well, strange humans with the hell-bent intention of making myths extinct have begun arriving on the island. A vampire belonging to the more peaceful of the bloodsuckers’ families has been murdered, and found alongside an innocent human. And the Treaty has been broken by the ‘child’ of one of its original creators.

A war has been brewing beneath the guise of peaceful efforts, and things are about to explode. You’re not going to want to miss the next boat to
