that pretty much sums up the motto of the mortal instruments world. even after valentine's death, evil still seems to have a grasp on the world. sebastian was declared dead, but who knew for sure? meanwhile, a tri-war of sorts is breaking out; downworlders, demons, and nephilim are all pitted against each other. each have their goal of victory, and the helpless mundanes are caught in the middle of it all. and to think: this all started from a flawed experiment.
however, couldn't we all be considered flawed little experiments?

To help with the uneven ratio of the member groups/species, Flawed Little Experiments currently has a ban on all non-canon nephilim. Don�t worry; we�re still accepting canon nephilim, because they�re important to the plot, and it�s only temporary. We will remove the ban, but until then, how about making a faerie, or a vampire, or a werewolf? Vanair, Asher, and Valene are getting lonely.
In other news, we are currently accepting nominations for the awards for the month of july. For more information, please check out announcements 001.

Hey guys! Faine here, with a request to current and future members. I've noticed that we have very uneven numbers for the member groups. We have an abundance of Nephilim and only one Fey and one Werewolf and only a few Vampires and Mundanes. I know being a Nephilim is awesome and all, but not everyone can be a Nephilim, so I encourage the creation of Fey, Werewolves (especially since my character is the only Werewolf right now and she's getting lonely), Vamps and Mundanes. This especially goes out to existing members who already have Nephilim characters. Before you make a second Nephilim, how about making a Werewolf or a Faerie instead?
I love you all! <3

Congradulations on making it to your tenth day of existence, FLE! Some sites would have died by now, but not you! You're still going strong, with lots of characters brewing losts of drama and forming lots of relationships. But on a more serious note, we would like to ask that new (and existing, for that matter) members look at the canon list and wanted ads when considering creating a character. Taking one of these vital characters is bound to make at least one person extremely happy. Keep up the great work, FLE! We can't wait until you're a big, strong roleplay site that's kicking demonic ass and taking name!
[justify]your personal invite to all of the up and coming parties and opening and other whole site threads. we'll let you know ahead of time when to be there and whether the event is casual or black tie.
[justify]everyone loves to get their name out there, right? or maybe you just want to browse throughout all of the names making headlines. well, here's where you can do just that!
[justify]in today's tech-filled world, it's so easy to get in touch with someone. here's where all your texts and IMs and e-mails go. all of your technical interactions in one convenient place.
[justify]humans need other humans to stay alive, whether the other humans be enemies or lovers or parents or siblings. here’s where you can figure out just who’s who to your character. please make one thread for all of your characters, and update them as you get more.
[justify]ever get a little mixed up about the order your threads went in? wanna know if a particular character has an open thread? here are all of the threads a character has participated in, laid out nice and neat for anyone's benefit.[/justify]
[justify]a beautiful stretch of grass and trees and lakes smack-dab in the middle of all of the concrete and bustling people, glass-covered skyscrapers and honking yellow taxis is just what the city needed.
[justify]the infamous coney island boardwalk, lined with rollercoasters and merry-go-rounds and game stalls where you can win giant stuffed animals and concession stands overflowing with fried and/or sugary food. perfect for dates or just hanging out with a bunch of pals.
[justify]the center of everything new york, times square is always packed with people going from here to there to everywhere. make sure not to get distracted by the elaborate store fronts or all of the billboards, because you might just walk right past where you’re going!
[justify]catch the latest flicks here. they have the newest movies available for viewing, and in october they have movie madness, where they have midnight showings of all the famous classic horror movies. so buy a big bag of popcorn, douse it in butter, and sit back and enjoy!
[justify]shop ‘til you drop with stores like aeropostale, abercrombie & fitch, barnes & noble, bloomingdales, hot topic, jc pennies, macy’s, victoria’s secret, wet seal, and many more! don't forget to fuel up at the food court!
[justify]called pandemonium once upon a time, fuss is just a new name for the same old thing. techno music and dry fog and strobe lights and a bouncer who doesn’t really even care how old you are.
[justify]in order to be allowed into hot wings, you have to show up wearing a costume. glittery faerie wings, furry ears and tails, fangs, cat eyes and forked tongues are just the usual scene. it’s understandable why downworlders love to hang out here; they don’t have to worry about a glamour.
[justify]with a sign that just reads “…!?”, exuberance is quite possibly new york’s most secretive, most exclusive, and most notorious nightclub. everyone knows where it is and what it’s called, but only a handful know what’s inside.
[justify]whoever thought up the concept for firefly’s had to drunk, and that’s why people love it. the blacklit nightclub that serves alcohol to just about anyone, and then hands out glow-in-black-light paint and lets them loose on the walls. you’d think people would leave covered in paint, but firefly’s has a patented brand that doesn’t mark up the skin, only the special paint on the walls.
[justify]a bowling alley slash bar, pin&&needles is best known for their funky colored, mismatching bowling pins and their obnoxiously colorful, obnoxiously strong alcohol shots. it’s just food coloring, but it makes it taste like a brand new drink.
[justify]a dark little hole in the wall that most everyone passes by (probably because it’s glamoured), the moon is a werewolf hangout. if you happened to notice it, the barista will serve just about anyone alcohol, as long as you turn into something hairy that smells like dog on full moons.
[justify]east dragon is overlooked because of its shabby outward appearance, but the smell of orange chicken and black pepper steak lures anyone into the boarded up shop. the inside , complete with a coy pond, is elegant and modern and completely the opposite of what you see on the outside.
[justify]everyone’s favorite daily kick start. with several selections of caffeinated bliss and sugary pastries, it’s the best way to start off the day, no matter what time your day happens to start.
[justify]a bakery and ice cream shop run by vampires, sweet tooth specializes in ice cream flavors like blood, fish, raw meat, and blood frosting on most of the cakes. be careful what you order!
[justify]coated with a glamour to keep the mundanes out, taki’s caters to everyone else. bloody steak for wolves, grasshoppers for fey, blood smoothies for vampires and french-fries and pancakes for warlocks and nephilim. it’s the social melting pot for the hungry.
[justify]bring your bank accounts if you plan to eat at cipriani’s. new york’s finest italian restaurant won’t let you through the door without a suit and tie and a reservation made six weeks in advance, and then they’re the type of place that doesn’t put prices on the menu. yet it’s the most popular place to go out for a dinner date.
[justify]one of new york’s public high schools, st. xavier’s doesn’t require students to wear a uniform and spend trillions of dollors for an education.
[justify]for those who want (and can afford) something a little more esteemed than public school, columbia offers the same gateway to the city that never sleeps, just with some harder classes and stricter teachers.
[justify]one of the most renowned art schools in america, julliard takes dancers, writers, painters, photographers, anyone with an eye and a passion for art.
[justify]the public option to continue your schooling, new york university brings people from all over the county who are sick and tired of their stick-in-the-mud towns and hope to make it big in the big apple.
[justify]housed in an ancient, beautiful church on york street and run by the midwinter family, new york’s institute is a pit stop for shadowhunters from all over the world. some because they need a rest, others because they have nowhere else to go.
[justify]the subway. the sidewalks. abandoned warehouses along the waterfront. back alleys and any other little hole in the wall that you could find yourself in.
[justify]the city of glass is the capitol of the nephilim homeland. surrounded by impressive crystalline demon gates and with entrances in every direction, it’s easily the busiest place in the entire country.
[justify]dark and foreboding, brociland forest houses many secrets, creepy crawlies, and things that go bump in the night. it’s been said that a pack of savage werewolves lope through the shadows, at war with an equally savage vampire coven.
[justify]sloping green hills stretch as far as the eye can see, disrupted only here and there by a stream slicing through the green, or trees jutting up to bite into the sky.
cool and refreshing-looking, lake lynn is just a hop skip and a jump away from alicante, but it’s not a popular vacation spot. the water is poisonous to nephilim, and if ingested, could kill one.
