Welcome to Windy City MUX, a non-World of Darkness game set in Chicago and based off the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton. It's a world where vampires have rights, zombies don't, shapeshifters are discriminated against despite it being illegal to do so, and humans can raise the dead for a living. In short, it's a modern world that will look mostly the same to you and me, but the monsters that we all thought were storybook creatures are out mingling with the rest of us. Accepted concepts include all flavors of vampire, were-things, many sorts of fae, psychically talented humans, magically able humans, animators of the dead, and many others! ^[1]

We all have grown up believing that vampires, werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night are make believe. Legends and myths of mystical creatures were just things to dream about, read about, or watch on movie screens. But what if they were real? Welcome to Windy City MUX, a non-WoD Modern Gothic-Horror RPG set in Chicago and based off the Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton. It's a world where vampires have rights, zombies don't, shape-shifters are discriminated against illegally, and humans raise the dead for a living. In short, it's a modern world that will often look the same to you and me, but the monsters that we all thought were storybook creatures are out mingling with the rest of us. And they aren't nice. http://community.livejournal.com/windycitymux/ ^[2]
