    The Seven Deadly Sins IC

    [[Sign-Up Thread]] The Boar Hat. The sounds of laughter and indistinct chatter filled the air of the small tavern. Men and women laughing and having a grand time while filling their stomachs with warm food and drink. It wasn't long before one curiously exclaimed, "Hey! Where'd that waitress get...

    The Magic Way: An EXTREMELY different Earth

    As a being of time travel, I am going to tell you a story about Earth about a hundred or so years ago. You might not believe, but it was very different back than it is now, and not in the way you'd expect. The world was filled to the brim with magic, and those who knew how to use it. It was only...

    Earth 1020 Superhero World

    I really like superhero stuff. The Marvel wiki has 1,725 pages on different realities of the Marvel Multiverse, the DC Wiki has 315, so I added it up, and averaged it out to 1,020, but I just thought 1020 without the comma looked better. Anyway I'll try my best to explain below, and I sometimes...

    The Ordained (Civil War era Vampire RP)

    "And upon this act, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the Constitution, upon military necessity, I invoke the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God. The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled...

    The Lover's Eclipse (Greco-Roman Historical Fantasy)

    I'm thinking about starting up a roleplay centering around Greco-Roman themes and borrowing the gods and deities of the two cultures to make up the story. The story will start out more historical in nature and quickly begin delving into a supernatural world of fantasy in which the characters go...

    Welcome to the Wild West

    Who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned western? But this one has a twist. In the year 2031 a group of scientists created a machine that, in hope, could look into the past in order to record accurate historical documents. After a few test runs, it seemed to work fine so a group of volunteers was...

    The Sacrificial Lambs

    This roleplay takes place in England and occurs in the time of the late 18th century. It contains sexual themes and explicit language. The vampyre race (the Jairus) used in this roleplay is a creation of mine that can be looked at here. The Sacrificial Lambs Winter had approached back when...

On occasion, this inspires me to detail a character, which can inspire inquest...

    Are you...a Drifter...or an End?

    Recently I have gotten back into the wonderful manga by Kohta Hirano, Drifters, and I'm wondering how much interest there is for a Redstar Group RP? For those unfamiliar, Drifters follows the story of historical figures who, upon their death, are transported by one of two entities to another...

    War of the Roses - The Queen's Champion

    "I expect you all to do everything humanly possible to uncover the culprits behind this... this..." Anne floundered, unable to think of a word strong enough to describe her feelings. At last she spat out, "This abomination!" Her fist banged down on the long wooden table, making the various...

    Beyond Your Expectations

    I'm going to skip my awkward introduction to this story and actually put in some necessary lore which might interest people. I hope. Panikai, a world that has been at the center of so much in the past, is now going to be the place to begin a story of epic proportions that will encompass more...
