Join War of Middle Earth!

Middle Earth roars with the sound of Battle.
The Men of Middle Earth stand strong
against the hordes of Mordor. The Dwarven
Armies ready Themselves and lock up their mountain
Fortresses. The Elfs of Lorian string their bows
And sharpen their swords. The Iorn Mountains swarm
with Mercenary Goblin armys ready to serve the
highest Bidder. The orcs of Mordor ready
their steal and long for battle. The spawns
of Sarumon streach their arms across Rohan
and pillage all in their way. The hobbits gather
stones for their slings and grab their farming
tools for wepons. The Haradrim ride on their
Oliphants and ready their bows. Corsairs
sail up the coast and rivers, ravaging all
that they can. The ground shakes with
battle as sword crosses axe, Spears break apon
sheilds, and arrows rain from the sky. The blood
of many will flood Middle Earth.

Star Wars : Twilight Knights I : The Strike

Story

222 years after the Battle of Yavin, the dominant faction in the Galaxy was the Sith Empire. They were unopposed after their takeover, or so they thought. Across the galaxy, a rebellion is being readied, by the Twilight Knights, Force Users who focus on balancing the use of both the Lightside and the Darkside of the Force, who seek balance in the force. Their leader, Kev-Mas Colcha, was but a mere Apprentice when the Sith took over the Galaxy, who was found training by other Twilight Knight Refugees on Dagobah, and Kev-Mas, after being trained by the Grandmaster of the order at the time, united the refugees together, as their new Grandmaster, and asked a few of them to go across the Galaxy finding help.

They enlisted the help of the Mon Calamari, the remains of the Jedi, the Corellians, the Sullustans, the Bothans, and the Duros. They worked together, underground, amassing a large army in a record time of 2 years.

Now, it was time to strike... For Balance!

Looking for a good RPG with a great story. A good GM is a good idea to throw in. I like long walks on the beach and candle-lit dinners. Please PM if you have something in mind.

Hey my fellow RPers! Just thought I'd put this out there, I have sorta assumed a temp GM position in Harry Potter Universe RPG, and more players are needed, as well as any of you who may have been there, but sorta drifted away. The story is really sizzling now, so come on over and check it out!

Harry Potter Universe RPG

Basic story outline? I've got one!


It has been 20 years since the “last” battle between Harry Potter and the Lord Voldemort. Although there were confirmations that Voldemort was destroyed in a flash of light, there were no reports of what happened to Potter and he has not been seen since. After the final battle, his best friends Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley were married and now live in London where Ronald works for the Ministry of Magic as an Auror and Hermione bases her S.P.E.W Headquarters. Ronald’s little sister and Harry girlfriend, Ginny Weasley has herself been wandering aimlessly from job to job unable to find her place and is currently employed at Borgin and Burke’s, for man years turning down jobs at Hogwarts. In a surprising move 5 years ago Neville Longbottom took over as Headmaster from Minerva McGonnogall, becoming the youngest Headmaster in the school history. Luna Lovegood has assumed the post of Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and has held it for 6 years, the longest tenured DADA teacher in a while. Draco Malfoy, who turned against the Dark Lord and earned forgiveness by saving Harry’s life is now in charge of Azkaban now. He immediately ordered the execution of all Death Eaters in the prison, including taking care of his father personally. The Muggles have made immense technological leaps almost forcing the magical community to adapt to the changes and assimilate muggle things into their daily lives. An unusual thing is spotted on the outskirts of London that gets people a little jumpy. A cloaked man wearing a mask set a house on fire. Although he was caught, proven to be just a drunken fool, and is currently in Azkaban people a re starting to wonder why he got the idea to dress up as a death eater 20 years after Voldermort’s demise…This story picks in the year 2013.


Posted by Knaordyi, original GM. Please PM me if you have any questions. Come on! grin Pretty please?

All new players get a cookie!

****Announcing an I_H Recruitment Initiative! ****



After one extremely long Winter Quarter, I'm proud to announce my quasi-return back to the RPFs. My own games lie dormant, with only the small spark of life within them. I have decided that its time to officially change this. So... I’ve engineered both of my games to be in positions where the entries of new players are officially appropriate.



Podracer: Need For Speed



First Post

The Second Season of the Galactic Podracing League has been one of high highs and low lows. Starting off on very rocky ground, the StarDust Three was over before it began; a scandal brewing about improper applied rules. This however was quickly counterbalanced by a great race in Eriadu, where names such as Kaida Alcorn, Deimos Odai, and Nava Kree began to seperate themselves from the pack as those with talent. The bright lights of Eriadu were replaced by the flames of Sullust, as the third race of the Season brought racers to "Fireball Alley." In the charred tubes floating above the lava, Podracers from all over the galaxy jostled for the fame and glory of first place. Exhibiting a wry sense of humor, Beedo's Wild Ride was fourth in the season. Unlike the race from the first season, Beedo's Wild Ride for this season was a private affair, with about four racers competing for spots.

Now fast forward to the current date. After a delay, the fifth race of the season, taking place on the beautiful garden planet of Kuat is about to begin! The GPRL has announced a special racer recruitment drive to spice up the last remaining four races of the season. The invitation is for all Podracers in the Galaxy, especially those already registered with the GPRL. Racers accepting the invite are to report to the Kuat GPRL Office for registration, and shall be provided with an incentive package to allow for them to competitive within the Season.



Pirates of the Caribbean 3: At The World's End



First Post

Avast ye sea dogs!

Be ye lookin' for adventure an' a bitta Pirating?

Word on the street be that the Black Dagger be comin' inta town. It be the same ship that snuck outter Tortuga before the Brits came and shut er down. It definitely be a Pirate Ship, or my name'll be Shirley!

Keep a wary eye to the sea mate. I be guaranteein' ya the next ship ta be putting down anchor be the one ya want. Maybe you'll be findin' yourself with a fair bit a shine ta boot!

* All players would start off in the Portuguese coastal village of Ponto de Leste, a fictional fisherman's town on the Eastern Tip of Brazil. From there, new players would presumably sign on with Barbossa and then, who knows where we be going!



All prospective players are encouraged to check out the first posts of my games in the links above and fill out the sheets for any of my games you want. Send them to me for a speedy approval, and you're all set to participate in a new adventure.

Any questions can be PMed to me as well. I really hope you'll consider joining any one of my award winning games, and a Happy Roleplaying to you all.

Their War, Our World (A TRANSFORMERS RPG)

SEEKING PLAYERS

The year is 2005, after a millennia in stasis, the race known as the Transformers have awaken on Earth, within the ship, The Ark. In the english language, their factions translate into Autobot and Decepticon. Many years ago a great battle took place in the heavens, but their ship, The Ark, was wounded, and was cast down onto the planet below. Their ship boarded by the enemy, the heroic Autobots fought valiantly, until a large crash struck the ship, and put the Transformers into an endless slumber. But fortunately, The Ark would awaken the heroes, but in their frantic search, the Decepticons were no longer on board, they had escaped.

The fearless leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime, has ordered all Autobots to take on earth-based forms to remain hidden. They are Robots In Disguise. Two years have passed since that day, it is now 2007, and the Autobots have reconed their planet, this Earth. The Decepticons have yet to be found, and the Autobots have vowed to remain on Earth until the dangers of the Decepticons no longer plague these people, with The Ark lost, after a horrific earthquake, which buried The Ark deep beneath the earth, the Autobots are left stranded, no way to contact their home, the planet of Cybertron.

But, unbeknownest to the Transformers, they are not the first of their kind to set foot on the planet of Earth. Sector Seven, a secret sect within the government, has been dealing with the Transformers since 1982. In their capture is an unknown Transformer, one unlike anything seen before. After nearly breaking out in 2006, and somehow managing to cause a massive earth quake, Sector Seven has raised its awareness of these Non-Biological Extraterrestrials. And sought out to destroy its kind once and for all....

-----

This Transformers RPG is not set in any continuity, it does not hold the basis of Generation 1, the film, Armada, RID, or any specific canon. Rather, this game will create its own universe, while drawing inspiration from all of the past Transformers legacies. Together we'll create an epic science fiction rpg. I've treated the Transformers differently in this case, like knights or gods. If it's not clear, the game is set in 2007, and The Ark is missing, for now anyway. This will not have any major plot, more like episodes, while the game will take place mostly in L.A. California, except for Sector Seven, which will be based in Washington DC. There will also be times where you will be able to travel to other places as well, given the nature of the story.

And it wouldn't be Transformers if you couldn't blow stuff up, and you can. Although we start the game as Robots In Disguise, you can reveal yourself at any time and blow crap up, along with destroying anything in your path, but beware, because Sector Seven seeks to destroy you, well, if you're a Transformer.

-----

Next up, the rules. First off, please PM all character sheets to myself for approval before posting.

No god-modding, although a Transformer, you can die, remember Optimus and Megatron, and Unicron, even the gods die. You can also be humans in this game, and they can die if they aren't careful. And you can't be any god based Transformers, that means no Primus or Unicron, personally I'd rather you not even mention them, unless like a curse or something. I never did like those guys.

As I just stated, you are allowed to be human. One of the things I want to capture in this game is the human element, you're allowed to live your life as a human as you see fit. But you can also be a Transformer. You are allowed to be one human and one Transformer. Your human can also work for Sector Seven, if you wish, or they can just be a normal person, or teenager, living their life. Anyways, the set age is 17, no younger but you can be older. In the Transformers case, you can be Autobot or Decepticon, pre-existing characters or fan characters are welcome.

If you decide to be a Transformer, no mass shifting, if you choose to be a radio, you won't be 30 feet tall, more like six feet, if you're a gun, then the size would be determined by how big the gun is. Let's go for realism is all I'm say. And no animals, cars, boats, jets, radios, anything like that is allowed. But a monkey walking down the street isn't exactly a good disguise.

Yall guys also might get something lucky depending on your character and faction. You may receive a Private Message, these messages will be coded, in game transmissions, if you can solve the encryption of letters, you just mind find something useful for your character, or the story.

Since there is no pre-existing history in this game, you're allowed to use any version of a Transformer character, even humans that have appeared in the show, it's all up to you, craft the character as you see fit. There also is no limit on players, but I would like to keep the factions of the Autobots and Decepticons near even, maybe the Decepticons outnumbering the Autobots a bit.

Please no spamming, and use the tags of IC, OOC, and TAG, all are useful, and do please tag the player's name. If you have any questions or problems with the game, please PM me, suggestions are fine as well.

Lastly, try to keep a reasonable amount in your post, at least a full paragraph, the same can be said for your characters history in the character sheet, at least two paragraphs there, for both humans and Transformers.

-----

Now, here are the character sheets, there are two, one for Transformers, one for Humans.

The Transformer Character Sheet

--Faction: (Bot or Con?)
---Rank: (What's your position in the war, field medic, weapons master, commander)

I'M THINKING ABOUT STARTING AN RPG BUT I DON'T WANT TO POST SOMETHING AND NO ONE RESPONDS, THATS KIND OF EMBARASSING. SO HERE'S A QUICK SYNOPSIS OF MY STORY, PM ME IF YOU'LL WANT TO PLAY, ONCE I HAVE A SUITABLE AMOUNT OF PLAYERS I'LL POST SOMETHING FINAL. BETTER DESCRIPTION WILL BE POSTED ONCE I HAVE ENOUGH CHARACTERS


TIME: after great hyperspace war, before clone wars

The sith are without a master and many sith are claiming the title of Dark lord of the Sith. Without a dominant dark lord the sith are falling apart. Five dominant dark lords with massive armies are preparing to clash with each other to see which one is powerful enough to claim the title of dark lord of the sith. While the sith prepare to destroy each other the jedi have risen to great numbers and are preparing to stop the dark side of the force once and for all.

looking for: sith lords
bounty hunters, jedi, dark jedi, grey jedi, sith assassins, sith apprentices, pretty much any type of character appropriate.

Star Wars : Twilight Knights I : The Strike

After the Fel Insurgency, the original Empire, led by Roan Fel, was victorious. Soon afterwards, the Empire was no longer an Empire. Due to a Grey Jedi by the name of Dade Leviathan, who appeared to Roan Fel, offering to teach the Imperial Knights how to harness the force in a whole new way. Teaching them how to balance between the Lightside and the Darkside which also did not exist, and only good and evil actions did. He accepted, and that forever changed their policy, making them Twilight Knights, defenders of Balance, and the Empire, was then reorganized to be an Alliance. The Twilight Alliance.

Also, during that time, the Jedi, have been peacefully studying the force at their Temple on Ossus. Their role in the Galaxy had changed in the series of years since the days of the Old and New Republic, and were no longer keepers of peace. They instead, went to their roots, studying the lightside of the force, as the Twilight Knights took the role as keepers of peace in the galaxy.

However, the Sith, were not destroyed, as they were rebuilding at a massive rate. Eventually, they struck from the shadows, taking down the mighty Twilight Alliance and the Jedi, almost completely.

Now, 222 years after the Battle of Yavin, the Sith are confident that there are no remnants alive. They were wrong. Across the galaxy, a rebellion is being readied, by the remains of the Twilight Knights. Their leader, Kev-Mas Colcha, was but a mere Apprentice when the Sith took over the Galaxy, who was found training by other Twilight Knight Refugees on Dagobah, and Kev-Mas, after being trained by the Grandmaster of the order at the time, united the refugees together, as their new Grandmaster, and asked a few of them to go across the Galaxy finding help. They enlisted the help of the Mon Calamari, the remains of the Jedi, the Corellians, the Sullustans, the Bothans, and the Duros. They worked together, underground, amassing a large army in a record time of 2 years.

Now, it was time to strike... For Balance!

The only questions now are, will the Twilight Alliance succeed in destroying the Sith Empire? Or will their attempts by crushed like flies?
Join today, and shape the destiny of the Future of the Galaxy!

The Sith-Imperial War: Turning Point

In essence, a saga depicting the battles between the Sith and Jedi during this era, with the Imperial Knights, Yuuzhan Vong, and every other Force using cult getting dragged into a Galactic War.

In the future I'll be needing Mandalorian and Yuuzhan Vong PC's, and I can never have enough Imperial Knights and Jedi to combat my multiple Sith PCs.
