    Genre: I’m just getting back into RPing so I’m not sure what I want right now. I’m looking for something either Modern Fantasy or Future/Sci-fi. If you have a Dresdan site I would be very interested. There are possible fandom boards I’d be willing to check out.

    Difficulty: Medium to High I suppose. I’m not a fan of WC but I will post decent lengths. I would like to see a solid application process.

    Type of Creatures: Depends on the genre. I am not looking for Mutant.

    Preferred Rating: PG-13 at the lowest. I'm looking for a mature community to join. I am not interested in any school settings.

    Preferred Number of Members/Activity: Small to Medium. Large if the story is good enough.

    Preferred Time where RPG is set in: Present/future

    Other Notes: Like I said I’m just getting back into RPing. I’m looking for a mature community full of decent people and minimal OCC drama. A couple notes on what I’m looking for in a specific community.

    Modern Fantasy: I would like traditional races (vamps, Werewolves, witches etc..) I’m not looking for mutants or a place where a virus or cosmic event ‘all of a sudden’ created the supernatural. I’d like these beasties to be steeped in history. I want to be able to fight a 900 year old vampire and take on a cult of werewolves founded by Ganghis Khan (if he was into that kind of thing). I plan on making an adult character and I’d like to be rping with an adult. I would prefer that supernatural creatures are still secret, unknown to the general population.

    Sci-Fi: I’m looking for something conflict orientated. Something where Humanity is going toe to toe with big green and ugly. I’m not a huge fan of apocalyptic story lines but I wouldn’t mind ‘fighting to take earth back’. I’d like to see space involved.

    Fandom: I would love to see boards involving Eureka, Dresdan Files, Ready Player One or Magic the Gathering.

    I’m very excited to see what people have for me so bring the boards on!

    Hey there! You might want to check out Utopia Rising. We are an original modern fantasy role playing forum that has a variety of creature types from Elves, half-elves, Mages and dwarves to vampires, werewolves and other kinds of shifters. We also have angelic and demonic heritage characters and demi-god characters. If you like playing plain humans we also have that as well. I am a personal fan of historical supernaturals, especially vampires, so not to worry on that front. The knowledge of the supernatural is still hidden, for the most part, only a few factions of humans know about the supernatural world and those that do their knowledge is limited to the knowledge of the broods, an original race of feline shapeshifters. Hope that isn't too lengthy an answer for ya and hope you find what you're looking for!! :)

    The current year is 2018 and magic has come back to Earth. All sorts of magical and supernatural creatures exist on Earth though most humans know nothing of their existence; the humans that do either hunt them to kill them or study them with a few exceptions. War rages with those humans while they try to keep their existence a secret while others just try to exist. The field of battle is set are you ready?

    Rumors and whispers of magic is flowing to more and more human ears. Tales of supernatural and downright magical occurrences are finding their ay to Brood and Human ears alike. For the Broods, werewolves and others aligned against Mages it is troubling for that means Shadow Mages found their way to Earth, for Humans it is fantastical and curious; but could it be real?! Can the Broods stop the Mages from gaining a foothold on Earth? Or will the Shadow Mages ultimately corrupt Earth as they did Utopia?

    Hi, please check out the Shift, a modern fantasy horror RPG wherein we are creating and collaborating the 'future' of this original world as a group. Writers are encouraged to contribute, although not necessary for the fun.

    • - Friendly, helpful staff that's usually available to help
      - lots of writers who love to plot
      - open to suggestions about world building, new races, factions, you name it!
      - No true word minimum, but it would be nice if your posts are longer than your avatar/no one liners/have rich and interesting story line
      -mature rating

    It all began in 2013. Earth is now a world that has seen magic, myth and the supernatural return to reality due to the alignment of Earth and the Sun with the galactic center. Mayan legends called this the Dark Sun and foretold that Earth would be born anew in December 2012 as the alignment would bring about The Great Shift of the Ages. The world is hardly black and white anymore, there are too many shades of gray. Too many warring factions. Too much death and destruction in the Old American Empire and in the rest of the world.

    What will come about from a world of chaos? Will humans and meta-humans triumph over the swarms of Vampires, Zombies and Lycans? What mysteries will be unraveled about this new world?

    Start your walk into a world that is not so dissimilar from what it used to be - but now wrought with the various perils that the supernatural tends to bring along with the political intrigue between factions vying for power in the new world!

    The Shift is a Modern Fantasy / Horror collaborative writing forum based RPG centered in New York City.


    Come join us, as we've recently updated our site with ipbf, and changed the site name. I think you'll love the updates!

    Maybe my sci-fi fantasy game would be up your alley? :3 It has space! And we have no word counts!

    [IMG]
    Welcome to the future, where magic combines with technology and possibilities are endless; where pop stars are the new gods and media the religion; where dragons and their riders dominate the Earth, cowboys roam the frontier, and pirates rule the skies...

    Remnants of the Earth is an original futuristic high fantasy RPG with a broad, unique setting based around the damaged planet Earth (not to be confused with our Earth), the newly terraformed planet Edanith, and the broad, dangerous depths of outer space and its resident space stations.

    You don't need any sci-fi knowledge to play here. We follow the Rule of Cool and take the "it works because it does" approach, and the technology isn't too far removed from our own--we've just got space ships and magic. If you're comfortable with a modern setting, you'd be comfortable here, too!


    • A laid back community with friendly players, awesome writers, and interesting characters.
    • Blessedly short apps/profiles, meant to appeal to both players who prefer to fill out an app upfront and those that prefer to develop their characters through play.
    • No word minimums, and PBs are optional. You may use art or photography.
    • A player-driven game where what you do actually affects the plot, and a world that is constantly developing and growing.
    • A community that's been going strong since September 6th, 2007.
    • Humans ain't the only species. Here there be dragons, fae, djinn, and whatever else your imagination creates!

    I may have something for you, a Sanctuary RP. It's got both fantasy and Sci Fi mixed in.
    It looks like you are a bit of a Syfy watcher, Eureka being a fandom and all so I think you might have glanced or seen a few episodes or commercials for Sanctuary. Also love Dresden Files, Sanctuary is relativity close to it only less magic and more science (thus the scifi hybrid genre) We do have werewolves and some vampires though very few since they are almost completly whipped out. We also have a great community and wonderful staff and I am not just saying that. I have run many boards and never have I loved a group as much as I love the Sanctuary crew.

    [IMG]

    Based off Syfy's Sanctuary

    There have always been two dominant races on the Earth. The first were the humans and the second were abnormals a group of cryptids, mutants, and people with extraordinary abilities. The only thing that keeps the balance between the two races is a network of safe havens called the Sanctuary. They keep the abnormals a secret from the human race and give them a place to stay, a home, somewhere they can learn to control their abilities or hide from those that would call them monsters. With the destruction of the abnormals underground City Hollow Earth however this balance is beginning to tip and the Sanctuary Network fears a war will break out between humans and abnormals if something isn't done. For this I Helen Magnus am reaching out to every corner of the Earth for help. You are about to enter a world you didn't think was possible. A world of infinite wonder. Welcome to the Sanctuary.

    Sides are being made which side will you chose? Do you wish to aid the Sanctuary in keeping the secrets, keeping the peace and protecting the two races? Do you wish to use this shift in power as a means to feed the fires to a war and take down the Sanctuary Network once and for all? Perhaps you stand in the middle not even knowing the Sanctuary exists, that abnormals are nothing more than the fairy-tales your parents told you as a child or maybe you are an abnormal who grew up thinking you were alone in this world. The only freak, unwanted and afraid. No matter where you stand in the world your role is vital to the fate of the Sanctuary. The only question you must ask yourself now is, are you ready to face the truth?

    ~Helen Magnus.

    Hello!

    I think we actually fit a lot of the requirements for what you want. We're a supernatural site, and we try to keep all of our creatures at least somewhat grounded in actual mythology and lore. I know that a lot of people who play some of the older creatures (particularly vampires) put a HUGE emphasis on research and knowing the time periods they come from and how that's impacted their personality and what have you. But on that note, we also have a ton of humans running around who are just as important to the various plots happening on the board, because a good character is a good character powers or no, right?

    We've also got a fairly solid application process, with flexibility to write more or less depending on what you're feeling for your character.

    Good luck on your hunt!

    I have a modern fantasy rp lightly based on the highlander series. While we have no vampire's we do have immortal humans.

    [IMG]
    THE GAME


    "From the Dawn of Time we came, moving silently down through the centuries. Living many secret lives. Struggling to reach the Time of the Gathering, when the few who remain will battle to the last. No one has ever known we were among you...until now."-Juan Sánchez Villa-Lobos Ramírez

    Since the dawn of time Mythical creatures have walked amongst us, some meddling in mankind's lives, others simply co-existing. Now, The Gathering has been called upon the British isles, where race known only as The Immortals, must battle until the last remains and claims the Prize. With The Immortals crossing the globe into the Uk and London, their presence has brought about a stirring in the mythical realm. For it is rumoured if one Immortal wins the Prize, he or she will have the power of all Immortals, and will gain the ability to govern and control all of mankind and earth. With creatures and races older than time watching, some do not wish for The Prize to be claimed, fearful of one singular being, so close to human gaining the power of Gods.

    Welcome the The Game, a Highlander/modern fantasy role play. Don't know what Highlander is? Do not worry, knowledge of the series and films is not needed. The Game is a play by post role play forum in which members can create characters and role play them a modern fantasy setting. We welcome all levels of writers and role players and our main ethos is: Fun.

    We are set in London and the uk, where the world is very much like the world we live in, with one difference. Magic, myth and legend walk hand in hand with the modern day. With various species, and an open role play setting we endeavour to create a safe, friendly and fun environment for players to come, relax and play.

    While we aren't werewolf/vampire focused, we do allow those types of fantasy creatures and we are a modern fantasy. We take place in the city of Bordertown, a city with one foot in Elfland and the other in our modern world. There's a lot of quirks that go along with the place, but we do offer opportunities for characters to explore darker themes such as gangs, violence, drugs, kidnapping, etc.

    NO WC | URBAN FANTASY | ALL OPEN THREADS

    Welcome to Bordertown, Elfland on Earth. Straddling modern earth and the fey Realm, Bordertown runs on a haphazard hybrid of elven magic and human technology.

    It's a city of street gangs and grand adventure, home to runaways, waifs, exiles and strays. Wolfboys own bookshops, half-elves pour beer for thirsty travelers and elves rip guitar solos. You'll be loved, dismissed or hated for the shape of your ears or the color of your eyes. But dammit, you'll be free.

    The Way is open. It's time to make your story.

    ooo oooo ooooooo! I have something for you on your Sci-Fi based.
    Humans fighting the big green and ugly. Well, they're not green, they're not particularly ugly, but their forces are massive and humans are certainly fighting them! Also, fight to take back the Earth, that's exactly what our humans are doing with this alien race! YEY!

    We're no word count, easy activity, accepting of any writing ability. We like having fun, coming up with insane plots and RPing them out. We also enjoy killing off our characters, so if you want to kill people, we're a great site to join!

    At the moment, we don't have much 'Space' involved, but that isn't to say we can't go in that direction. We have a space division in our alien race, they have space ships, just at the moment things are more based on Earth. If you'd like to suggest some plots to take it to the skies, I am sure our members would jump on it, and you, in excitement!

    Hope you'll give us a look!

    They came, they conquered, and we are slaves to the ruin.

    They gave us two choices:
    Servitude or Death.

    There is actually another choice
    that they didn't think anyone would choose...

    Fight like Hell!

    Fancy a little AU Battlestar? It's not fighting for Earth (yet) but it is conflict-oriented. They're going up against robots instead of green aliens, but it's definitely got fight and it's got action and it's got a bit of the criminal seediness. We've got three arenas of play between revenge-set military, seriously-in-danger-of-blowing-up military and civilian. We have plenty of mature members that respect people who have lives and jobs. If that sounds like your type of thing, feel free to check us out. Otherwise, good luck in your search!

    It's the year 2017. Voldemort was defeated in the final battle 19 years ago. Harry Potter and the rest of the gang are sending or have sent their kids to Hogwarts where Minerva McGonagall continues to lead as Head Mistress. Kingsley Shacklebolt is the Minister of Magic and has put the Ministry back on it's feet. All seems well in the wizarding world.

    However there are whispers of a dark power returning. An unknown man causing trouble here and there. It's nothing big yet and no-one can figure out who he is but even after 19 years, people still have faint worries of Voldemort returning. Fear is slowly starting to creep back into the minds of those who thought they were safe and Kingsley is trying his hardest to hunt down the trouble-maker and get on top of the situation.

    Everyone knows that history always repeats itself...

    We'd love to have more members, please give the site a look out and we're more than welcoming. We're a new site with a handful of active members who are all very welcoming and we'd love to have some more people to meet and characters to plot with!
    Please come check the site out if you have time!

    A Harvest Moon Romance Rp!
    [IMG]
    Alamos village, a lively and hustling little town! Full of flowers, and giggling. The villagers are always so nice too! It may be a rather small town with its famous Clock Tower and famous Garden, but it isn't small in people. Long ago, before Alamos was blessed with these people, it was a quaint little town. It still had the clock tower and the garden, but it was a small town of just a couple dozen people. Villagers used to visit the clock tower every day to pray to the Celestial Guardians that guard the village. But as time passed, more people came along to the town and the village was so hustling and bustling people never had time for the Celestial Guardians. The Celestial Guardians could not protect the village without prayer. They could barely survive without it! They to this day rest in the garden. What have the villagers done? They have opened the town to the evils of the world. Alamos is to this day unprotected.
