RPC was founded by Jossverse fans and is trying to start discussions based on the series as well as an RP:
Buffy Season Eight: Pretender Sign Up

Buffy may be in Rome- but there are also sightings of her in New York. If you frequent the demon haunts in Mexico until an unsuccessful raiding party come in, they will claim the blond Valkyrie sabotaged their fun.
Fun part is, they're all true.
Buffy & Co has implemented a so- far successful plan to keep the forces of undead on their toes. Unfortunately for the White Hats, the undead have had enough time to cry in their blood. Figuring that the Slayer doesn't have twin sisters, evil has started tracking the Buffy look - a - likes.
In Mexico, 'Buffy's ' apartment is raided and her close friend is kidnapped. In New York, 'Buffy's' associates find themselves dealing with clever vampires proficient in stalking them- following them home. Watching them sleep. Listening in on their conversations. Creeped out that no serious efforts have been made against their lives, New York is the first to suspect something is wrong...
It doesn't save Rome's 'Buffy'.
In a well - organized alliance, a group of vampires and demons who are telepathic swoop in on 'Buffy's people' in a savage coup. When the fight is over, three of Buffy's supporters- her demonology expert, Magic practitioner and fellow fighter are grievously wounded- only to discover that Kelly, Buffy's double- lays dead in the street.
The demonic alliance quit the scene after proving 'Buffy' is dead, intent on connecting with the other two cities.
Enter you. You play one of 'Buffy's' advisers (magical, Demonic or such) a Slayer or trained fighter who fights by her side, or 'Buffy' herself. Now that evil is on to you, how do you protect yourselves as well as the allusion?
For Buffy players- each 'Buffy' possesses a mask in the real Buffy Summers' likeness.
There are only -two- Buffy doubles allowed in this RP, given to the two who make me 'feel' it.
To apply:
Name:
City:
Age:
Description: I recommend anything that can be determined from walking up on someone- height, skin, hair & eye color
Role: 'Buffy', adviser (specify what adviser Domain they hold, she may have several in different specialties. Examples: Demonology, Witchcraft, Local Demon/Vampire) or fighter.
RP Sample:
Give me a taste of your character that revolves around their role- an adviser explaining a type of demon's weaknesses to Buffy & fighters, a fighter training or 'Buffy's experience. It needs to be at least 5 sentences long and I am a spelling Nazi- if you are a bad speller, use the Spellcheck button before posting.

Below is a link to RP Sign Up where all RPGs have a full explanation and are open for new characters. Upon having a full cast, the RP gets its own RP thread for rping and an OOC for discussing plot.

A small sample of what Roleplay Central offers is below in two RPGs - Slayer Trials, an RP that Jake and I created together - and my new Buffy Season Eight: Pretender Sign Up
The year is 2050. America has become a warzone, The First having unleashed its army of darkness many years ago. A failed attempt to change the fate of Potentials and Slayers many years ago paved the way for Its armies to run rampant across the Earth. While some humans survived to found a Resistance against the forces of darkness, the First has ultimately become all powerful and the majority of society has no choice but to live under the First's twisted order or die.
The events of "Chosen" ended in disaster. Willow's spell failed to activate the dormant abilities of the Scythe of Slayers, and thus the combined force of Potentials under the command of the Lost Slayer fell before the might of the Turok-Han.
What remains of the Watcher's Council is a meager shadow of its former glory, operating undercover to train the remaining few Watchers, Potentials and Slayers in an attempt to survive the impending darkness. Those still based in America are desperately short on the Watcher front; the council severely drained of personnel and struggling to train up field operative replacements for the overseas struggles. Despite still having scattered Potentials across the world, the Resistance is losing them as the Forces of the First track down and annihilate them one by one.
This past month has seen a valaint effort on the side of good. The Resistance in Durham Springs has been joined by two Watchers from overseas, (Tristan & Amelia) - a potential Slayer (Kim) - a Seer with the ability to forsee events but at great cost to himself (Soren) - a librarian whose experience in magic has leant him to save thier necks more than once (Fred)- and a rogue demon hunter whose family has been at the conception of it all (Shay). Together with the male Slayer, Tobias, they have combatted the formidiable demon Caltrop who is working under the cunning vampire Circe. Unknown to them, Circe's rivalry with a powerful yet mysterious force has placed them in the thick of a heated contest for who can attain thier wants first- at the Resistance's exspense. The latest in compeitition has placed a mysterious and dangerous box meant for a Ritual in the reluctant hands of the Seer while vampires have abducted the rogue demon hunter, Shay and the Slayer's Watcher, Amelia.
As the women are in the clutches of the First - they can see the Ritual Pit. Clearly the First's plans are moving forward- yet how will the Resistance rescue their friends and stop the Ritual?
Overview:
Slayer Trials is mainly about struggling through dark times, and the strength of people working together to overcome those dark times.
Here's what we don't want in Slayer Trials. No over-angsting, no godmoding, no immortal or superpowered characters and no vampires gone good or with Queen of the Damned style abilities.
When we say-war zone, and Season Seven Buffy x 10 that's what we mean. The populace at large has no idea whats causing the current conditions; they blame gang turf fights, they blame youth violence, they blame political mind games, its your general he said/she said about what is going on.
The Resistance are the only ones in the know aside from a scattered handful of humans in power that tend to be working for the First either willingly or not.
The First is currently playing for the long game. No sudden onslaughts and massacres, just a slow and gradual expansion and control over everthing before It unleashes Its last strike and takes everything all at once. The Bringers execute swift elimination of whomever threatens the First's plans. Potentials, Watchers and anyone who Resists being the three main targets.
Life is mostly as normal for the unaware; for example children still attend school, albeit ones like bad school in urban cities riddled with gang violence; yet another sign of the First Evil's influence choking the planet. Thats where the Resistance comes in. Welcome to Durham Springs - the current base of operations for the resistance.
You may have up to three characters each. You can choose to let a character be killed and create a new one anytime during the RP. New characters have a great tag in now in the fact that they can enter as fellow abductees or be brought in by vampire patrols or rescued from such patrols by the Resistance.
