To newcomers, curious travellers, old guard coming home: WELCOME. Welcome to Nexus Crossings.

No applications.
No activity check or activity requirements.
No taken list.
No character limits.
All canons and OCs welcome.
Dynamic playerbase-driven plots and events.
Backtagging friendly.

The Rules: Required reading within! Get to understand the dynamic and etiquette of posting to Nexus Crossings. Familiarize yourself with our policies regarding NSFW content, spoilers, fourth walling, events, and more!
Introductions: Introduce yourself, your characters and tell us a little about yourself!
The Setting: The Nexus is a very nebulous and open place, but here's where you can get familiar with some of the set locations and offer up ones you've established for other players to enjoy and reference!
The Gallery: In the course of RP, people are going to create art, make videos and gather playlists. Here's where you can share them, as well as browse the works of your fellow players!

Your mod here at Nexus Crossings is me,

labrathor. If you have ANY questions/concerns/complaints, do not hesitate to get in touch with me! I am here to enable and foster a welcoming, fun environment and are here to help and to listen.

A large banner hangs in the center of the Plaza with a hand-painted and exessively glittered 'WELCOME TO THE NEXUS' plastered across the fabric. Underneath the banner is an impossibly large monitor. You know, the kind your neighbor makes sure everyone on the block is home to see as he has to knock a wall out of his house to fit it inside his living room. It's playing a video on loop.

"Do we have to do this--?" The man speaking looks every kind of uncomfortable, clad head to toe in a red, white, and blue combat suit with a large round shield hanging off of one arm. "Are they even going to get it? I'm not--"
"Rogers." A woman's voice cuts in. "Just read the damn script. You've done worse."

His posture straightens then, and he flashes a smile directly toard the camera, hands settling on his hips.

"Welcome to the Nexus, citizen. You may find yourself very confused right now. Trust me, I know that feeling well. Everyone's new here once. What's important right now is to remain calm. You're in a multiversal meeting point between worlds." He gestures offscreen to his right and sure enough there's a stand with pamphlets on display.

"So, where is this place? The Nexus isn't anywhere in the world you're coming from, though if you're here it's because it is linked to your world somehow. The Nexus is a place in between worlds. A sprawling centralized hub that links to many different worlds, times, and dimensions."

"Well then, why are you here? You're here because you've stumbled into one of those connections. For example, you may have come through a doorway that doesn't lead where it used to, or perhaps it always did lead here and no one has ever gone through it."

"Right about now you might be asking, how do I get home? Often getting home is as simple as walking right back through the way you came in. Sometimes the connection isn't very stable though. If you find yourself stuck, don't worry! There are individuals here who can more than likely help you re-open the doorway so you can get home."

"So go ahead and take your time, gather your thoughts, and then give us a question. We're always happy to lend a helping hand, citizen. Enjoy your stay."

Debating if I should throw pups here again because back to driving a cab and have downtime between my medical runs...

Anyone want my idiots back?

This morning I was contacted by a user that was previously banned, who was asking to rejoin the community. While this request was denied, it is possible that the user may attempt to ban evade by commenting or posting with a journal that was created after their previous time here.

If you see comments or posts by a journal you do not recognize, please contact me via PM here or in the Discord so I can investigate.

For new players, or those thinking about joining, don't forget to introduce yourself! :) This helps us keep track of legitimate users and their characters, and can help you find new friends!

Hey folks, as some of you know my area got hit pretty hard by an ice storm and I'm currently without power. Right now the ETA is midday Monday, though that has been changing a lot. In any case, I probably won't be able to get to tags for a bit, so anyone who currently has threads with Thor or

ayatantreasure, please bear with me! :)

Hi Nexus folks! I'm going on my honeymoon today, and won't be back until the evening of the 25th, so any tags from me will have to wait, as I'm not bringing my laptop.

Thank you for understanding!

Hey all!

It's been some time since our last community event, so I am pleased to announce that starting October 16, there will be some Halloween fun available! There will be spooks for those who want them, and for everyone else, an opportunity for characters to mingle and hang out with old friends or make all new ones. Costumes will be mandatory (and the Nexus will provide one if you don't), so best to begin thinking about those now. ;)

There is no overarching plot and nothing requiring signups, just bring your characters and your spooky holiday spirit, and have fun!

Mods, feel free to delete if this isn't allowed - but does anyone know a comm for OOC advice/discussion? I've had Shelby on hiatus for a while, and recent events have me thinking of bringing her back, but I'm not sure if the relevant plot idea would work or how well it would be received in the RP community. I'd like to find people I could bounce the idea off of and potentially rework it before posting it and maybe embarrassing myself publicly, especially since the reason I stopped playing was her not fitting in.

Any suggestions? Or if anyone knows anything about motorsports, feel free to come in my direction!

Taking a look at the event announcement we posted last week we have not received any DMs as of yet with people looking to host official tables anywhere so consider this the one week call out to get those in if you are interested!

It's absolutely fine if people prefer this to stay a smaller event--we want to make this a community run post <3

We will be making final event write ups next weekend with the event going live Tuesday Dec. 14th and it will be stickied through the end of the year to allow for slow posting. Please see the original post for details of how the event will look and remember to DM a mod either in DW or on Discord if you do wish to sign up to host a table.

Thanks all~! Expect an update from us either way next weekend.

XOXO
