It’s that time of year again, folks!

North of Somewhere’s AU Summer Event - 2018!

This year, the AU event runs a little (maybe a lot? Idk.) past summer but I’m sticking with the name because I like it.

For these non-canon events our characters will travel into an alternate universe. There will be a three day break between each AU in which you are to wrap up any threads so we can start fresh on each Monday. 

More information will be available on each AU, which will be posted the day before the event starts, but below is a preview of each alternate universe. You have all the power to decide what happens to your character and what your character will be doing in the alternate universe. Plots do not need admin approval. There will be no need to send in any information about your characters for each AU, however, if you would like to make a post to give everyone some background on your AU character then please feel free. :)

We’ve received suggestions and ideas from you lovely people and the AU’s this year are as follows:

Harry Potter AU - This AU will run from Monday, June 25th until Thursday, July 5th.

Future AU (6 years) - This AU will run from Monday, July 9th until Thursday, July 19th.

Redo AU - This AU will run form Monday, July 23rd until Thursday, August 2nd.

Supernatural AU - This AU will run from Monday, August 6th until Thursday, August 16th.

Future AU (23 years) - This AU will run from Monday, August 20th until Thursday, August 30th.

Posts will go on your character’s blog, there is no need for side blogs for this event. In order for everyone to not become confused we ask that, as always, if you are participating, you title/tag each post with “AU”. THE RULES:

Participation in this event is not mandatory. This event will not affect your canon story lines. The canon roleplay will still be continued, for any of the roleplayers wishing not to participate though we ask that for the duration of this event, all AU posts must remain part of the event as to avoid confusion (no external/private AUs are permitted during this time; please speak to us if you have any concerns/complaints in regards to this). Remember you can blacklist “AU” to block the posts.

For those participating, please remember to be mindful of triggering subjects, as some AUs may include sensitive topics for some.

Open canon starters are “freebie” for the duration of this event, but the starters rule still applies to all closed starters. Open starters for the AU are “freebie” for only the first five days, and after that the starters rule will apply. Closed (AU and canon) starters are subject to the starters rule for the entire event.

You are only allowed to post starters for the event during the 11 days that each AU will receive.

Please use the tag #aunosstarter for AU starters. We’ll remind you when we start each AU! We’ll begin the AU Summer event on Monday, June 25th.

Plots do not have to be run by the admins for approval, but it is important to stay true to your character. You may interact with other character’s, their possible children, relatives, write selfies, share paras, or anything else that comes to mind!

We are not making new blogs for these characters nor do you need a new fc. We ask, however, that when you’re choosing fcs (if you’re choosing fcs) that you please respect which fcs are for use and which are currently banned. We do not want to make anyone uncomfortable with any of the fcs used, and we ask for you to take care with this.

Even though it is not mandatory, we would like to ask if you could please make some form of ‘Character Information’ post for this AU for those participating.

THE AU SUMMER - SUPERNATURAL AU!

This event will run from Monday, August 6th until Thursday, August 16th.

Greensville is a small, uninspiring town in the middle of nowhere in North Carolina. The quaint town, with no significant landmarks was always the kind of a place where people could go and become lost to the rest of the world and after the ‘Apocalypse’ in 2012, the town remained just that. However, now when the mayor declares that it’s really the residents that make the town special, most of the world has no idea how much he means it.

When supernatural beings of all species decided it was time to stop living in the shadows and shine a light on the part of the world that humans only really saw in horror films, there were no talks of peace or reasoning. Instead, it created a war between the humans and the supers but once they had started to defeat mankind, the other species began to turn on each other, each one wanting to lead the new world they wanted to create and the divided failed to conquer.

There were many who had lived peacefully among the humans, able to pass as one of them and there were those who simply wanted no part in destruction since before the war even began so they all fled to give themselves a greater chance of survival in a fight they didn’t ask for.

Greensville, North Carolina, is one of the many communities across the globe created by the most powerful of those against the destruction. A safehaven for all species to be protected from the rest of world during their unrest. The town, protected by both strong magic and the guardians appointed to the community, welcome all who needs its protection as long as they abide by the rules set to keep all of the residents safe from each other.

(Here is a list of supernatural beings we had for a previous AU if you need any inspiration)

Plots do not have to be run by the admins for approval. We are not making new blogs for these characters nor do you need a new fc.

Even though it is not mandatory, we would like to ask if you could please make some form of ‘Character Information’ post for this AU so those participating are aware of your changes for this AU. Make sure to tag these with #aunoschara!
