In the mid-1600's a ceasefire of sorts was established between our kind and the witches. It wasn't exactly a war, but both sides killed great numbers of the other out of spite, pride and fear, and the list of casualties was becoming unbearably high on both sides. And so a bargain was struck that ensured peace between the coven and the church. But as the years passed, the ceasefire was all but forgotten and slowly witches began to attack humans once more. Not to kill them, but for sport. They found ways around the treaty. Like curses.
The curses varied of course, depending on who the witch was and what they intended to do, but always they would turn their victim's world upside down. And when other humans found out, they would kill their own kind out of fear.
In 1893, the Aldrertree Institute for the Magically Distressed was founded by one such victim. Martin Mayhew. He built it as a hospital of sorts for those humans who have been affected by those of a magical nature. Or at least, it was until it was shut down in 1998, due to a most unfortunate accident. They helped out dozens, if not hundreds, of patients with their ailments whether it was to cure them completely or to just help them to deal with the changes to their lives, or even just to give them a safe place to stay. A.I.M.D helped them all no matter what afflicted them.
But now after an eighteen-year break, the institute has opened again. And perhaps a dozen patients, whether they be new or old, have been invited to receive treatment whether they are forced to turn into an animal or catch on fire whenever they sneeze. And they may not know it yet, but perhaps their curses aren't so bad after all.
RULES:
1) GM's word is law. If you're told to change something then please do so, or if an event takes place that affects all characters then please acknowledge it.
2) Avoid one-liners, and by one-liners I mean really short posts that don't contribute anything to the roleplay.
3) No Mary/Gary Sue's... Human's aren't perfect, so neither should your character be.
4) Be respectful of other roleplayers, there's nothing worse than arguments in chat over something silly.
5) Please do try to post at least twice per week... I know that people can be busy but otherwise the roleplay grinds to a complete halt. If your partner hasn't posted in a while, just send them a message or tag them in an OOC message.
6) Follow the roleplay brief. There's nothing worse than someone taking a roleplay completely off topic.
7) Try your best spelling and grammar wise. It's really annoying when you have to try and figure out what words your partner is trying to use. It doesn't matter if English is your first language or not.... just try your best!
8) All posts should be in English. The only exception is if your character is speaking in a different language, in which case the translation should be included in the post in bracket's.
9) Please do not post until your characters are approved. That includes your character's powers.
10) Have fun!
