history
James Potter was a pure-blood wizard and son of Mr. and Mrs. Potter. He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1971 to 1978 and was sorted into Gryffindor house. There he became best friends with Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew; together they created the Marauder's Map. Also during this time, James played Chaser for his house's Quidditch team. During his seventh year, James was Head Boy and began dating Lily Evans, whom he later married. Together, they had a son named Harry. James, Lily, and their friends all fought in the First Wizarding War as members of the Order of the Phoenix; He and Lily were also able to defy Lord Voldemort three times. However, James and Lily Potter were forced to go into hiding after a prophecy was made concerning Voldemort and their infant son. Tragically, James and Lily were betrayed by one of their friends, Peter Pettigrew, to Voldemort.

James was a clever and talented wizard, but very mischievous when he was younger. He could be arrogant and boastful, and even bullied other students on occasion, particularly his long-time rival, Severus Snape. However, he ultimately grew out of this, losing some of his arrogance and becoming enough of a responsible student and leader to be Head Boy in his final year, and later a member of the Order of the Phoenix, though he never entirely lost his rebellious side. James died bravely sacrificing himself for his family. Despite being a Pure Blood, James disagreed strongly with the concept of blood purity and was disgusted with any prejudice towards muggle-borns. He also does not judge people based on their history, but only on their personality. Of course, he can hold those kind of grudges forever. 

GAME: [info]Year One After Voldemort
It's been over a year since Voldemort's defeat and there are new challenges around every corner. Professor Chang disappeared for a week, waking up on the floor of Borgin & Burkes with no idea why. Her only memory - that of a Voice - has made her promise to guide those who 'return' without explanation and soon thereafter, those lost to both wars on both sides have begun 'returning' to life! Now, there are dangerous rumors that Lucius Malfoy has begun following the path of Gellert Grindelwald and gathering like minds to his side. In the Wizarding world of Britain, the laws of nature are being broken, and sides are once again going to be taken in the fight for the future. Whose side are you on?
GAME: [info - insanejournal.com] Escape Mechanism
Not so very long ago, the Powers that Be decided it was time to decide which force should be ruling the Multiverse: the force of Order and light, or the force of Chaos and darkness. So the Powers set up two worlds inside of two bubbles, and picked their chosen representatives from various realities and points in time. Time rolled on, but after only three and a half weeks, they decided the forces were not balanced. That the pawns, the players in their cosmic war, were not equally matched. So they re-evaluated the people they'd chosen, shuffling some into the other bubble. They realized too late that some people had formed bonds in the short time they'd been in these worlds between worlds, nearly unbreakable bonds, and they would not be swayed so easy to their newly chosen side.And so, on midnight of the twenty-fourth day of the war, the Powers that Be sent most of their chosen warriors and catalysts to a new reality, merging the two existing bubbles. They have decided to start drawing in more people, letting bonds form with no barriers between the sides. Chaos' warriors are mingling with Order's chosen, and new people are being brought in on the whims of the Powers.
