This activity is astounding, guys! We love it, and love you for keeping active. It means the world! <3
Alright. In the news: The ban on males has been lifted, and of course, as a result we've gotten a lot of new male applications. Now, we know it's exciting and all that because now you can make your boys, but this also means that the male ban might be reinstated. It also means that the staff members are going to be a little harder on all male applications. We want you to really think your characters through, not just make them on a whim. Development is key, and we'll be looking for that in each and every new biography submitted. Please don't disappoint us. The staff recommend that all members check out the list of encouraged character traits before creating a character. It's very important to us that the site remains balanced. We hate to pull metaphorical teeth and make it painful by placing bans on certain character types, but we will if we have to.
Anyway... now that that's out of the way. Let's keep being awesome! <3 - Austen

Welcome to GRAND ILLUSION! The site is a futuristic roleplay based on different groups of beings known as "shifters" who are the products of illegal human experimentation. But before you get too into making your character, make sure that you read everything here first. Everything that you need can be found here; the rules, a guide to the different member groups, and plot history. Please read this guide thoroughly before asking any questions. |

This is the records library, where you create your bios and submit them to be reviewed by a staff member. Each different experiment class has it's own application form, and there are different ones for civilians and SHIFT members as well, so be sure that you are using the right application when making your character. Once accepted, applications will be moved to their respective section, and you may begin to RP. Before making your application, please check the current bans to see if your desired class is currently allowed or not. |

So you've made your character and they've been accepted. Think you're finished? Wrong. They still need plots! Friends, enemies, romances! This is the character corner, for all your needs and wishes. Come here to request plots, trade your character for another, put your character up for adoption, and establish relations with other characters on the site. Also found here are the thread trackers, which are threads you may make that keep track of the threads your character is currently involved in. So go forth and utilize all the extreme wonderfulness you see before you! |

The First District houses mainly educational buildings as well as higher-class forms of entertainment, such as dance and music. The local university and high school are located in this district for all those who are still attending school. There is also a library for said students, as well as anyone else, to research their areas of study. The Museum Complex dominates a quarter of the district, and consists of a museum of history, art, and air and space. Also a part of the museum are the botanical gardens and the city zoo. For the musically inclined, the school of arts offers classes to all dancers and musicians - maybe one day you'll be good enough to perform in the Northend Theatre. |

Welcome to the Second District. But unlike the other two districts of the town, this area isn't known by it's district name - rather, it is simply called the residential area. And rather high class it is, too. There is a small, neat mall at the center, which is surrounded by the beautiful West Park, who's gardens rival even those of the botanical museum in the First District. There is also a sports complex and a fitness center in the area, were all of the local sporting events take place and where people go to exercise when the fancy strikes. Dominating the Second district is the residential section, which consists of houses, apartments, cottages, etc. Anyone can live in the regular housing, but only the highest-class of people can afford to live in the Gated Community, though youngsters usually make a joke of hopping the gate to cause trouble. |

The Third District is where the party really begins. It's basically the happening spot of the whole city - it has everything from clubs to amusement parks, as well as the subway station that takes you out of the city to the rest of the world. Ex Eden is a popular nightclub that is always full every night. Cloud Nine is the most successful bar ever known (or so they boast), and houses all kinds of...interesting folk. But even if the clubs and bars aren't to your taste, you've got the whole Strip to see - a long street line with every restaurant imaginable. The district even has an amusement park, although it is slightly smaller than the more famous ones. Topping it all off is the biggest mall in the region - shop for clothes, see a movie, whatever your heart desires. |

Though the SHIFT corporation was convicted of illegal human experimentation years ago, they were let off with a few fines and a slap on the wrist - money talks. Their corporation still stands, and this is their main headquarters, located several miles outside the city. It consists of an entrance hall and reception area, run by unsuspecting office workers, and yet, behind those steel-reinforced doors lies several lab rooms filled with experiments, each one different from the next. The basement and rooftop are all filled with their own mechanical wonders. The whole structure itself is surrounded by miles of deserted, fenced in property that you'd be crazy to try to cross. Enter at your own risk. |

Of course, there's always the nice member chat to consider is you're not really fond of games. For all you graphics-people, there are sections here for you to strut your stuff as well as test out your latest table or code or anything, really. Feel free to utilize it, it's there for you! |
