So as your former admins, Feline, Beth and I (Shadow) would like to formally say goodbye. We understand that we have left many people in confusion, considering we’ve had a theme that consists of nothing but black, and the activity dropped off all of a sudden. We have an explanation for this, and that is simply that we got hacked. After much confusion and panic, although we were able to retrieve our blog back, we have decided to close down this RP. Call it a message from the universe to start knuckling down on school work. However, the temporary admins we had during our small break shortly before the hacking have created a new RP that we just know is going to be fabulous - have seen how fabulous it is, and while we won’t be sharing the site for security purposes, we highly encourage you join it if you do find it! We wish everyone the best of luck, and a sincere apology for any troubles our little happening has caused. Thank you for your time!

can you not tag it with just the names? the tags are getting cluttered with your roleplays gossip, could you tag it like "G; (name)" like for example g; victoire weasley

Unfortunately I’m going to have to say that this blog has been running for too long with this tagging system for us to change right now, but seeing as a maximum of 5 tags on a post makes it to be viewed on tumblr from that tag, we’ll find a way to always make sure that any canon characters are put under the 6th+ tag.

And after much time taken, here finally, is the first of the Tumblr RP how to videos! We’re sorry it took so much time, and we’ll be getting to the other ones as soon as possible, we promise! Enjoy, and don’t hesitate to refer back to these if you’re in need!

Flashbacks// Self-para

As Mira drifted off to sleep, a voice kept ringing in her head, a voice that she knew all too well. But she was too far gone to wake herself before the dream started. 

The pitch black in her mind slowly transformed itself into a wide open field that was just outside of the Gold family property. There wasn’t much to it, just a plain field with tall grass and a hill at the edge of it. The Gold twins were told that they were not supposed to play there, but neither could see anything wrong with it, so of course they didn’t listen. A little boy, hair as yellow as the sun was running toward the hill. “Come on Mimi! Before mummy and father see us!” Little Mira ran to catch up with her brother. “Let’s try to go up farther today Nico, I wanna see what’s over the hill.” As the two little children began up the hill, there was a rustling in the tall grass behind them. Nico kept climbing, appearing not to have heard it, but Mira turned around to look. She saw a tall figure coming their way, a man that she recognized as one of her father’s enemies, and there was another man following him. She turned back to warn her brother, but before she could they were both struck by a spell, falling down the hill. As Mira pushed herself from the ground she heard her brother scream and a sharp pain jolt threw her body. The Gold twins were closer than most, any time one twin was hurt, the other could feel it and Mira could feel that her brother was in pain. As she yelled her brother’s name and went to run to him, she felt arms come around her, grabbing her and picking her up. She fought against the man holding her, but couldn’t break free. “Mimi!” She looked up to see Nico running toward them, and the other man right behind him. She screamed as he grabbed her brother, the man holding her yelling something at him in Bulgarian. “Otŭrvi se , ako go , nie samo tryabva si!” She saw Nico go wide eyed as the man grabbed him by his shirt, dragging him back and raising his wand. Nicolo!” Mira screamed. And then she and the man disappeared. But not before she could hear Nico scream for her, louder than he ever had. And then it felt like something broke inside Mira, and everything went cold.

Mira shot up in her bed, a cold sweat running down her head. Her hand went to her throat; she hadn’t noticed that she was screaming in her sleep again. She looked around to make sure that no one had woken up. She curled herself up, resting her head on her knees as a few small tears slipped down her cheeks.

So once again we can't keep up the threads that we have going before the event? It makes it hard to process and develop our characters.

   You are correct in that events mean only event threads during the event, but really, there aren’t usually quite so many back to back. We usually have events for most major holidays, and most events only last five days to a week. So you’ll have to bear with this one. Fortunately, we have awhile before the next holiday so you’ll have plenty of time to develop.

On that same note, it is 100% okay to continue threads from before the event after they’ve ended, you aren’t required to toss them.

 I find scheduling replies for the end of the event keeps them from getting lost

Events are a way for us to do a couple things for you guys:

they are intended to give players who might not usually have a good reason to have interaction a chance to have some kind of plot.

your character is able to experience and deal with events that happen during the holidays which mean a chance for a different kind of characterisation and development

they are meant to be fun and keep an rp from being super monotonous all the time. how boring would it be if we only ever were in a castle during one time of year with nothing going on.

We as admins work hard to make interesting events for you guys so I hope that you appreciate them past the inconvenience of threads that must be put on hold!

We’re horribly sorry for the lack of admins on this Christmas Day, but you will be experiencing that for just a couple more days. We currently have one OC application, and a question that I’m unable to answer until I get to a computer.

Do you have any banned FCs?

I believe there are some, but I’ll have to ask our main admins and get back to you off anon. I can’t think of any off the top of my head but our biggest rule is making sure there are enough gifs of them to use.

[the-nextgenesis-rp-blog]

If we recently were on the unfollow list, can we apply as our female character?

Since our ratios are pretty balanced we are getting geared up to lift the ban. So send in that app. We will get back to you with more information once you come off anon, but we would love to have all our lost babes back. We love you guys.

Who is professor 51? I was recently looking at a bio and noticed this character.

I believe professor 51 is an Alien doll thing that professor Floryl keeps in her office. It’s a bit of fun, like Trevor the Choir Toad and not actually a playable character. (I’m pretty sure.)
