BEGINNING

  • Register with your characters name in proper capitalization. Use either a first name alone or a full name of first and last name. If you haven't decided on a name when registering, change your name to that of your character, once your character has been approved.
  • One character per account.
  • Please fill out the application within one week after registering, or within five days if you have reserved a canon character. Otherwise your account may be deleted without further warning.
  • Do not start rp-ing unless your character has been accepted. Feel free to join in the OOC topics though and use the cbox to get to know everyone.
  • Celebrity Play Bys are a must. I know some people don't like them, but no anime characters, please. We define celebrity as someone who has at least a short entry on Wikipedia to their name.
  • Once your character has been accepted be sure to put in your face claim, and start posting. Join an open thread or put up one or two of your own.

ROLEPLAYING / CHARACTERS

  • There is no limit to how many characters you have as long as they're active, active being the watchword here. If you just like to make new characters but don't intend to use them, you can always share them in the OOC board.
  • If you make an Elf, Einheriar, Valkyrie, or Shapeshifter, your next character must be a human. You can make as many human characters in a row as you like. Humans are the most common species on Earth, and we want to see that reflected in the character mix. But if you make a non-human character, your next character must be a human, before you are allowed to make another non-human character.
  • We RP in third person in past tense. Use quotation marks around "spoken words". Using single quotation marks for thoughts can help others read your post, but they are not a must.
  • Minimum post length is 150 words.
  • No Chat speak. Dn't talk lyk diss. Enough said! Everyone makes a few mistakes, but try to pay a little attention to spelling and punctuation.
  • Threads will be considered open to replies by all, unless you mark them as (Closed) or for the attention of a certain character (Name) in the topic title.
  • Mature content: Please put an (M) in the title of any thread including sex, strong violence or anything that might disturb others. When in doubt, err on the side of caution and 'fade to black', especially when it comes to sex. We are a family-friendly board.
  • Post regularly. That means at the very least once per week per character. If you're going to be absent or busy for a week or more let us know.
  • No God-modding or Powerplaying. Don't make all powerful characters which can avoid every hit and kick, and do no take control of other player characters.
  • Character Deaths: Your character is allowed to die, but the how, when or why should be discussed with the admin, as it could lead to plots and stories that will help the site. Once a character is dead, they cannot be brought back to life.

OTHER

  • All rules already stated apply to the c-box (except post length, of course). No advertising in the C-Box. Also see this thread for further guidelines.
  • All we ask for the graphics is that they are not pornographic and that the images used fit the character.
  • Avatars are to be no bigger than 150x150, signatures are to be no bigger than 500x300.
  • Canon characters are suggestions only. They do not have to be played, but all of them come with some possible connections to other characters, so playing a canon can make it easier to break into the roleplaying.
