this is not a anime forum

the bjam way combined with the needed links and some basic posting rules, so read this or get your stuff auto removed

also dont be scared to ask for help, i bjam has ideas or a drive to work out how a power could work in this forum, if you have any question just pm bjam or post in the questions part

rules are found here

step one:join, your account should be named after your character, and no underscore

step two: read this topic, work out what your character is gone be

step 3: think of a face claim/playby, for males you can if you dont know any good ones use this list for females this list, but that is mostly to get ideas

Steps 4: look to see if the claim has been claimed if not just post your claim for it in the facelaim

step 5: look for the needed templates, found here and do a topic for each one of the templates in here

step 6: name your posts after what they are like "name's demigd info" or name profile something in those lines, but keep powers and profiles apart, your character isnt just his/her power

step 7: get ideas, work out what kind of character you are doing to have, what race, what focus items, what powers (or spells) divine relations if demigod or legacy, look at other's profiles and see what they have

step 8: magic info can be found here and magic is related to EVERYONE with powers

if you are going for a demigod look at this if your desired parent isnt there pm baldr and we will work something out
if super powered this might help
if wizard this will help
of magicians this might help

step 9: do your claims they are important
once you have worked out everything you need edit it into the profile using the templates (and remove the (test) bits from the templates since they are just minor guidelines that can be removed when you ad info)

last step have fun and join in the fun



urls for those that cant find them

questions part
rules are found here
character species info

male faceclaim help list

female faceclaim help list

facelaim

templates

where to post them


magic info if it is too hard to get cos it seems like alot feel free to ask wht kind of info you need to keep in mind about your character and i will tell you what you need to know in terms you can understand, i can even use other series's power systems to explain things


if you are going for a demigod look at this if your desired parent isnt there pm baldr and we will work something out
if super powered this might help
if wizard this will help
of magicians this might help

and lastly claims

tenshi's guide

step 1: Read up on roles/jobs/abilities of other members
this helps me gauge where the member count stands as well as how many members r in what roles
step 2: look at available abilities/classes
Helps me think of how I can make character unique but not making them too op or just plain ridiculous
step 3: think about history and what abilities may fit it
History is a great influence on how the character will b and interaction with others
step 4: find reference as close to what I want as possible
Mainly to prevent confusion just so everyone will be on the right page
step 5: Limiting abilities
Think of gauging powers on a tier system based on anime, if the power is ridiculously strong then it gets high drawbacks/recoil and shouldn't b available until a long while into rp
if u think it's too strong, don't do it
well i tend to have an overactive imagination that when given the ammo can come up with things in a matter of hours sometimes.
i made the storyline for a 3 book series in a few hours though not sure if it'd ever b written
plus i like helping balance things out, like if there was a knight, archer, and medic class. majority bing knight or archer i'd go medic just to help balance rps better

How to create a forum character.
Creating a forum character is pretty simple - there are just quite a few things you have to consider. These include
Your characters name, age and appearance
Your characters behaviour, education and history
Your faceclaim
(If appropiate to the forum you are joining) Your characters magical and fighting ability

Normally you would make the username your characters name so that people know what your character is called when you are posting. When creating the character you can be as imaginative as you want to be - but bear it in mind it also has to be realistic to the forum you are joining - for example if you say your characters age is 23, but you decide to use a very wrinkly old man as your signature and avatar...well it will just cause a lot of confusion with the other forum members (unless it can be explained of course...if it was a magical forum maybe someone secretly snuck in a permenant ageing potion in your characters drink). With your faceclaim you are required to say which face you are using in the profile you make. This is in the character application that you have to fill out before posting, ss well as the other points I have mentioned above. Filling out character application forms should be easy if you know quite a bit about the subject the forum is based on, but if you need any help or have any questions an established member of the forum should be able to help you, Once the character is completed post your topic for approval. Once the profile has been approved and your avatar and signature is done then you are ready to post,

Here is a Guide to Character Creation here from an old time gamer. Lets not discuss my age, and I will keep this simple.

I guess the first place to start with character creation is where to draw inspiration from. Wow, that is an interesting thing. It is everywhere. Perhaps a picture makes you think of a character idea, movie posters, comics, magazines, the wole internet is a playground of pictures. Songs are good too - there are characters in songs. maybe even someone you know. Books...pets, my character Nicks pet is based on a dog I own. Maybe you like swords, guns...whatever base a character around that. The possibilities are endless.

Now you have your idea, there are two templates to choose from. Big and small. Both are excellent but I really and wholeheartedly recommend the larger one. The detail is awesome. It helps your idea to live and breathe,. Be descriptive. No detail is unimportant....what is your characters favorite drink? Why? By the way, the aforementioned Nick(my character) like Iron City beer...helps him forget stuff in his past.

As a helpful hint, at least for me, I started with the small sheet. Then as ythe idea grew I went to the large template and expanded. It takes time. It is worth.

So. Look for ideas. Figure what powers/skills/abilities would go with that idea. Build a background rom that. From a seed a tree.

Otherwise, ask questions and have fun.
