[close] A group for SCUBA divers that like to read, or readers that are interested in SCUBA diving. Discuss, suggest and review books related to diving, both fiction and non-fiction.

[close] You are an undersea diver for National Geographic, on a perilous expedition to discover what terror might be lurking in the impenetrable abyss-like depths of the Mariana Trench. As you near the source of the mournful moaning, a trickling cold creeps down your back, and you lose consciousness almost immediately. When you wake, you are lying in front of a wondrous sight: A glimmering, ethereal palace shimmering faintly through the wispy seaweed. The flying buttresses are seemingly constructed of pure ivory marble, as is the rest of the fortress. The walls are encrusted with mother-of-pearl ornaments in every size and shape imaginable, and festooned with blithesomely twisting fish in a plethora of varieties of gems. As you attempt to swim back up to the surface to relay news of your wonderful discovery to your comrades, your esophagus seems to contract, and you collide with a translucent barrier. You are trapped, for eternity, perhaps. Welcome to the lost kingdom of Atlantis. NOTE: THIS GROUP IS STILL UNDER RAPID CONSTRUCTION!

[close] At the bottom of the pacific ocean resides a hidden city of outcast magicians who have been living there ever since their ancient city was sunk by humans. Left weak and helpless after their banishment they had magic left in them for once last spell- using the last of their power the magicians gave themselves the ability to live underwater. They live there to this day, dreaming of a time when they will be powerful enough for revenge. But years have past and the banished magician's descendants are happy where they are. They have found a way to live away from all sunlight and have grown to despise the world above and see no reason to go back there. They are content to remain hidden from the world. But the world above is discovering more and more about the world and one day the magicians get a visit from a deep- water submarine team, and their whole existence is threatened. All are welcome to RP as the underwater community struggles against exposure to the modern world.

[close] We are fans of Polly Holyoke's Neptune Project Duo hopefully to be a series!
