Verse: Bump in the Night

Name of 'Verse/Idea: Bump in the Night (Bump!Verse or Bump! for short)

Fandom: Panfandom (Primarily Doctor Who/Torchwood and Hellboy Movie canons with Heroes/Marvel/Etc thrown in to boot)

Setting: Anywhere, anytime as character abilities/equipment allow (Magic, character ability, TARDIS and Vortex Manipulator are just a few examples of how verse members could travel though time/space).

Primary BPRD Headquarters is in Newark, New Jersey. Primary Torchwood US Headquarters is TBD. Primary Primatech/The Company location is TBD.

Contacts/Mods:

open_flame,

selfmade_hero

What is your 'Verse/Idea about: Crossover AU RP Verse. Jack Harkness and Trevor Broom found the BPRD starting shortly after Hellboy comes though the portal off the coast of Scotland in 1944 as seen in Hellboy. Jack disbands Torchwood following the events of Torchwood episodes Fragments and Exit Wounds. He becomes Director of the BPRD during the events in Hellboy II: The Golden Army when Tom Manning is removed.

Presently the BPRD is seeking agents and special agents, as well as other employees to assist them in protecting the world from the monsters, aliens and things that go bump in the night.

This verse is 'hop around' timeline wise and may include flashbacks and flashforwards. If an event in the past needs more flushing out, please feel free to play it out/ fic it. Time Travel for those with the ability to do so is allowed and even encouraged. However caution is advised and future events are never viewed as 'fixed' unless they are canon events. There can also be 'extreme' crossovers, involving movies, comics, and television series. Basically anything goes as long as you don't godmod or disrupt another player's in play plots.

Threads and Fics prior to April 2010 can be read here on Let's Be Bad Guys . Threads and fics on FreedomVerses can be found under the tag verse:bumpinthenight

If you have a question regarding a character's history in the verse, or their present and previous plot involvement, ASK! That's why the LJ Gods created PMs, and why the Mods created an OOC comm.

All new players should check in on the player contact form with their information on the F-Locked contact post. When you add or drop a muse, please update your contact information.

Verse also plays on

sixwordstories and should be be denoted in the 'location' if required. Verse also plays on Twitter, Personal Journals, and AIM.

Please feel free to use SWS for dry runs and to test out ideas before playing canon threads or fics on the comm. You may also us SWS, AIM, Personal Journal RP, and Twitter for your primary verse canon play if you wish, but we ask that you cross post with the proper tags and use the Weekly Summary to keep your verse mates abreast as to what your muses have been up to. This offers the most player flexibly and freedom, which is what this comm is all about.

If you know for sure like your post to be a dry run, there's a tag for that. If you post a Six Word Stories ,Smutty SWS or another similar comm post and would like your verse mates to be aware of it, please make sure to post them on the RP comm with the tag (sixwordstories), (smuttysws), verse:bumpinthenight, and your char tag so other players in the verse can interact with you. If we don't know you have a thread up, we can't play with you.

Notes:

NON PLAYED CHARACTERS:

Please feel free to NPC characters that do not have a player as needed, but use reasonable discretion when doing this as situations may change and NPCs can become played muses quickly. You can simply have the NPC do things during your characters play, or you may use the

freeverses_npc Account if you wish. It has 30 icon slots, so there's room for pretty much anyone you might need. PM the Mods for the password.

WANTED CHARACTERS:

We are always seeking new players, and we have found that most fandoms and muses will fit into Bump!Verse with minimal canon modifications. We welcome AUs, genderswaps, age tweaks, humanizations of animated characters, OCs and pretty much everything else you can think of. Most characters will fit or can fit with minor canon tweaks, you just need to use your imagination. If you'd like to join, don't be afraid to ask the mods for help fitting your character in.

Additionally, current verse members are encouraged to invite new players they think will enjoy the verse and be fun to play with.

DUPLICATE MUSES:

As agreed upon by the verse members by majority vote, duplicate muses are allowed under the following conditions.

One duplicate muse is permitted. This included regeneration as in the case of the Doctor or other Time Lords.

The currently in play muses mun MUST OK the duplicate. If they say no, the duplicate may not enter the verse.

The two in play muses MUST have notable differences in character canon.

Duplicates will be pulled though one of the many unsealed rifts throughout the planet.

More information on duplicate muses can be found HERE.

PLOTS

Major verse wide events will be denoted with a tag formated as such: plot: example here Muses are never required to take part in the verse wide events, however we encourage you to explore what would happen to your muse if they were put in a new situation that they didn't experience in their original canon. You are welcome to overlap and weave plots together, for example the aftermath of the Fae War and Miracle Day, and intermix your own storylines throughout as you wish. We encourage OOC plotting and planning by way of a muns respective preferred contact method.

Witches, fairy tale creatures, aliens, magic, time and space travel, alternate universes, mythology, grave robbing, cryptozoology you name it, this BPRD has dealt with it and will deal with it. Go crazy, have fun and explore the extremes of your character here. Just about ANYTHING can happen in Bump!Verse.

CONTENT/WARNINGS

Due to the potential for adult situations, trigger content, and violent content, players must be of age to play in the Bump in the Night Verse. As this varies from location to location, we will trust the mun to be truthful with us that they are legally an adult when entering into Bump!Verse. Potentially adult, violent or trigger situations will be denoted in entry tags.

APPS/SAMPLES

Bump does not have a set application process. We encourage our current members to refer new players and 'pimp' the verse to their friends. We also welcome people who just happen by us from our various ads and post around the web.

Players who do not have RP experience with an existing verse member MAY be asked to provide example of Role Playing (min 15 replies in your preferred narrative mode), and of fanfic (300 words or more) for the Verse Mods to review if we have not played with you before. In the event of your muse being from a fandom the mods are not familiar with, they may request your submission be reviewed by members of that fandom currently the verse.

QUESTIONS

In the event of a question, please feel free to contact a Mod. We'll get back to you as soon as we can.
