Super Robot Wars Unification

What does it mean to be a hero?

Obviously you cannot just declare yourself one. The title of "hero" comes from actions and acknowledgement of others. But what if public support for you and your allies is waning? Will a hero still be one if people turn away from him?

SRWU is a small, multi-fandom crossover DWRP inspired by and named after Super Robot Wars, a popular franchise of turn based strategy games based around giant robot combat.

About the setting
In SRWU, the Earth Sphere is under attack - rampaging monsters, alien invaders, even human groups who pursue an agenda of hostile intent, all of those are threats to humanity. To combat those threats, a joint effort organisation was formed: Unity Group, controlled by no government and with relatively small internal structure. Despite initial scepticism, it quickly produced results by acting wherever an intervention was needed, whenever bad guys had to be stopped.

But with the good comes the bad, and poor actions of several affiliated members, in addition to at least one alien spy infiltrating Unity Group's ranks, caused popular support for the organisation to decrease. Will the group prevail despite rocky times that await it?

About the game
In SRWU, player characters are members of Unity Group or its allies. Their canons become an integral part of the setting, and the canons' events play out during the course of the game as opposed to having finished "offscreen" (though that too is an option if the player desires).

An important part of the game are "missions", events that are played out in real time using instant messengers such as AIM. A mission represents a combat encounter between player characters and some kind of foe, the latter controlled by a mod responsible for running the mission. Missions are always scheduled well in advance.

About applications
Applications are currently and always open. SRWU accepts characters from all kinds of giant robot canons, media and obscurity do not matter. Non-mecha canons can also be accepted if they fit thematically. Players are not limited to app'ing characters into existing canons - you are welcome and encouraged to apply with a totally new canon not present in the game yet, and if accepted it will become part of the setting.

Original characters are allowed.

About activity
The game currently has no activity rules. This may change if it grows significantly larger and if player inactivity becomes a problem.

EMPYREAN SKIES
A Panfandom, Jamjar Dreamwidth Game: Conquer the Skies and Discover the Mystery of the Regalia	LINKS
It happened in the blink of an eye ... Whatever you're doing, whatever has your attention - a low buzzing sound, like a fly circling your head - becomes audible. The buzzing turns into a low droning whine, impossible to ignore, and a sense of some immense power nearby takes up your senses. However around you, should you ask companions or strangers, no one seems to notice anything out of the ordinary - or even hear you - if you call out to them. Your surroundings begin to blur, dulling as a white noise drowns out the sounds around you. Faces, Places, Things, all begin blending together in a azure glow. Your body feels numb, heavy and light at the same and nausea settles in the pit of your stomach as your sense of direction vanishes. For one terrifying moment, all of your senses fail you and you are in pitch black surroundings - as far as you know. Just as quickly, your senses return, bringing with it an even more violent sense of nausea, your body weakened to the point that you can barely stand. When you can stand, you are lying flat on your back, staring up at an unfamiliar sky. In the distance, you can hear crackling every few seconds, flashes of light almost like bolts of lightning appearing to accompany the crackling. Interested in joining the fun?

Hi! I had a quick question. I'm poking around the comms and it looks pretty quiet, but only recently so so I'm wondering it's just because of the holidays and finals and all that. Can you estimate the pace of the game just generally for me?

Also I love the interview questions ideas for apps; that's awesome. c:

Methinks it's mostly because of the holidays, and I know some of our players are currently having family_issues(tm) so they haven't been able to participate. But the pacing of the currently is by standard, slow to medium pace. I'm mod for plots (events and mission stuff) and personally I try to keep things moving with at least one or two tags a day, though I adjust to how people like their pace. If people want more stuff or less stuff per month I accomodate (or try to~!).

Heehee, thanks~ we found this type of format more interesting :)

That sounds awesome, thank you! I'm gonna poke around a bit more, but I'm liking everything so far so I might just have to put in an app here soon. c:

Cool! We're looking forward to that <3 :)

Just thought to mention I'm tentatively interested in this game too, anon.

If you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them for you :>

Thanks. I did already talk to you a couple of weeks ago :).

Oh! Lol Okay then :D

Homestuck is in print and being published as physical media, as a head's up. You might want to change the wording of your rule there, since lumping it in strictly with "webcomics" is no longer applicable.

Thanks for the heads up~! We weren't aware of that :)

The Xavier Institute

"Mutatis Mutandis: By changing those things which need to be changed..."

This is the Xavier Institute of Higher Learning. You are here because you are different. Gifted. A mutant. And while the world still has a lot of ground to cover on relations between yourself and your fellow human being, we can only hope that what you do and learn here will not only better yourself, but the world around you.

The Institute is a pan-fandom, plot driven, alternate universe (AU) role playing game set in the world of Marvel's X-Men. Players fill the roles of students, faculty members and adjunct staff members, all of whom work together to keep the Xavier Institute active and running. Alongside school life drama, your characters will have to endure the harsh world of X-Men, where humans and mutants draw near the brink of war with each passing day. When you're stuck in the middle, will you hold your ground or take a side?

You're awake. You don't know where you are or how you got here. You can barely move, but you push yourself up anyway, and look around. You're in an elevator, but the doors are shut tight. You throw your fists at the enclosed doors, shouting for help, but then you stop. Suddenly, the elevator screen turns on, featuring a strange figure in a gas mask. "Consider this a privilege. You have been chosen." A rasping voice speaks out of the gas mask, cold, mechanical, and distorted. "You are going to participate in an experiment." "The 【 Nonary Game 】." "It is a game... where you will put your life on the line." Vivarium is a panfandom AU/memory-loss game, based off a 3DS/Vita game called Virtue's Last Reward. No prior knowledge of the Zero Escape series is necessary, and the game has its own original plot line. The game focuses heavily on escape, exploration of a trapped enclosure, the prisoner's dilemma, teamwork, and the concepts of trust and betrayal. IMPORTANT NOTE: We currently have 2 slots open, as the game caps at 12 players. This is a fairly fast paced game that relied heavily on team participation in the puzzle rooms, so a decent tagging speed and time to tag somewhat regularly is highly encouraged. The Game is open. The Test Drive is here. Applications and reserves are open.	MAIN AMBIDEX GAME OOC MEMES MODS PLURK PREMISE RULES FAQ LOCATIONS CALENDAR TAKEN RESERVES APPLICATIONS HIATUS DROPS NAVIGATION CREDIT



	a pirate themed roleplay adventure

SET YOUR COURSE
Behold this ruby, Centuries old. Its power is great, True depths untold. What once was whole, Now in parts 'tis shattered. Having it all, Aye, that's what matters. Rebuild the gem And whatever ye wish will be. Whether wealth, good fortune, Mayhap the chance to flee. Strangers listen: Take heed, take care. Or be lost forever To Davy Jones' lair. These are the words whispered in your head as you wake up to unfamiliar surroundings. If they don't stick, never fear — they're also inscribed on a stone at the base of the crumbling fountain in the town square. What town square, you ask? Well, perhaps you haven't fully noticed yet. Take a look around. This isn't your home. Welcome to Isla Empieza, a port town in this pirate inhabited world you're going to be living in for awhile. It probably doesn't look like much, with its old cobblestone roads and weather-beaten buildings, but it does have a harbor with plenty of ships. The locals here will set you up with one, or at least help you get a room at the inn, but beyond that you'll find they keep to themselves. That should suit you fine, because you probably won't be staying in this town for too long. You haven't forgotten the poem, right? Read it again. Think it over. The famed gem in question was once called the Piedra Roja, and having it in your possession is the only way you're going to be able to get back home. So get a ship, find a crew, and take to the seas. There is endless ocean to sail, countless islands to explore, and a myriad of adventures to be had. The shards of the Piedra Roja could be anywhere, after all. Finding them won't be so easy. And remember... You aren't the only one looking for them. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ High Seas is a panfandom RPG that is a one part mod-controlled events (treasure hunts! sea beast attacks! a ticked off Naval force!), a couple parts slice of life (on a ship!), and many, many parts create your own adventure! In this mythical pirate world, the only preexisting city is Isla Empieza. Once you set sail from the island it's located on, the world is your oyster! Where your ship goes, the islands it discovers, all of this is up to you. You have total control over the types of places you want your character to visit. As for why you're here, well, it seems Davy Jones is up to his old tricks. He's always looking for more unsuspecting sailors to drag down to his locker. You can blame him for pulling you into his chaotic world, and whatever curses befall this place? Those are also his fault. So off you go! Happy Sailing! (Oh, and watch out for the other pirates.)
