Who are we?
---Circus of the Damned is a semi-literate to literate alternate universe (AU) Anita Blake roleplaying community.
When are we?
---We are set during the present year of 2013. The story plotline will follow real time events (this includes seasons, holidays, ect.) Some holidays and such may be extended due to site-wide events or plot purposes.
So, what's the plot?
Addison V. Clarke
All vampires shall be seen as legal citizens of the United States.
That’s right! No more secrets. The world of vampires, lycans, and witches has been revealed and furthermore, accepted! They walk among us in everyday life as our neighbors, co-workers, and even our bosses. It’s strange how the old horror stories have come to reality, although they were wrong about a few things. Not all of them are hostile…some are actually pretty nice. Of course, there are those that thirst for blood…err…well, you know what I mean. It’s always a smart idea to watch your back, just in case. Suspicious activity in the Red Light District has been reported, so be sure to stay clear. Remember, vampires are only around at night…
Be careful or you might end up the closing act in the Circus of the Damned.
Currently everyone is trapped within New Orleans. You can come in, but you can't leave. A witch and a necromancer have set up barriers around the city, the witch's circle keeping in all living and the necromancer's circle keeping in anything dead/undead. This also means that random zombies are rising from the grave without anyone summoning them. They are all recently dead within the last fifty years. The issue? No on is controlling them and many of them weren't plain humans when they died. Lycanthropes, animators, witches, voodon priests and priestesses, were all laid to rest in the last fifty years and so, are uncontrollable.
Jeremiah Evans, previous Ulfric and Lieutenant of RPIT led an assult against the zombies but their witch has placed a curse on many of them that went to fight them. They are trapped in a coma until our witches on site either find a reversal/cure for the curse or the witch is dead. When both the necromancer and witch have been found and killed than the circles around the city will break, animators and necromancers will be able to send the zombies back to their resting place if all are not yet dead.
What makes us different than others?
---Friendly staff always around to cure boredom or answer questions.
---In-character and out-of-character chatboxes (both premium).
---A unique and interactive Powers System.
---An open plot to allow for character development so no one feels left out.
---Zero tolerance for drama.
---Many leader positions still open.
---Set in the vibrant city of New Orleans!
And hey! Even if you don't know the Anita Blake series, you can still join! We'll work with you on understanding the concepts and species in the Anitaverse.
Hope to see you guys soon! Enjoy!
