| Welcome to the universe known as Fictional War. You assume the role of a "Merged" character. That is, you take two of your favorite professionally published fictional characters, wether they be from comics, tv, videogames, movies, or even books, and fuse them together to form a stronger, more unique character that is completly original to you. Using this character, you can do pretty much whatever you want, from opening a shop to raiding villages. There are rules, of course, but, in short, you can perform any stunt that your character is capable of. The sites storyline is completly driven by the member base. Every little battle counts, and, in the end, the fate of everything on Fictional War is up to the member base and their represented characters. There are scheduled "arcs" that are to occur, but even they are subject to change by the member base. With endless character possibilties, equally endless alliances, and many areas to roam, Fictional War gives the members the control of their own mini-story within the grand story of a thriving univese on the verge of complete collapse.

First off, welcome to Fictional War. At this site, we allow you to RP and communicate with other characters from various universes in the fictional world, like many other sites. However, here at FW, you RP as Merged Characters. A Merged Character is simply 2 characters from different universes merged into 1. However, there are restrictions, and they are as follows: Character History Your characters history is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. You must make your character original through text. Meaning, while you are using 2 different characters, you are merging them, and thus, creating an entire new persona. Because of this, NO COPYING AND PASTING IS ALLOWED. You cannot take history from one of your characters Wikipedia page, or any other page with information, and directly copy and paste it, or even edit it a little. If we do find that you have done this, we will edit your page, and then warn you. If you do not comply, you will be suspended. If, on your return, you still refuse to comply, then you will be banned, and your character will probably be either discarded, or killed off. It is also important to note that, while our administration may not notice at first, when we do eventually find out that such has occurred, you will still receive a warning. We DO allow you to use the pages for sources of information, and you can copy and paste powers you believe to be ok. However, history cannot be copy and pasted. List of Powers that member generated characters cannot possess; -True Immortality -True Indestructibility -"All" Immunity -Mass Scale Reality Warping -True Mind Control There are many more powers that are not allowed. Character merging, and the decision of god like power is to be determined by administration, not you as a member, or Wikipedia/Any other informational site. Administration can allow or deny powers based on, generally, logic. For a comprehensive list of powers available to member refer to Power Ranks Member Generated Character Restrictions 1. Absolutely NO gods, or god-like entities allowed. Powers that are god-like are listed as: -Characters that can, literally, do anything they wish. -Characters that can CONTROL other H characters at free will. -Characters that are gods, were once gods, or can be considered gods. -Characters that have the ability to reverse, fast forward, or stop time on a large scale. -Characters that can remove "laws", such as the laws of physics, the laws of motion, etc, on a large scale, or even heavily influence them on a portioned scale. There are many more examples of god like entities. Character merging, and the descion of god like power is to be determined by administration, not you as a member, or Wikipedia/Any other informational site. 2. Neither of the merged characters can be from the same "Universe". This does NOT mean that you cannot take 2 fictional characters that live on "Earth". However ,it means that you cannot take 2 characters that are from the same Promotional Series. Examples: Allowed -Batman and the Punisher CAN be merged. They are both from "Earth", but they are from different series, and companies. As such, "Earth" is different in both series. Not Allowed -Mewtwo and Mew cannot be merged. They are from the same Series. -Superman and Batman cannot be merged. They are from the same company. -Summoned Skull and Dark Magician Girl cannot be merged. They are from the same creator/series. Parameters for characters can and might be adjusted due to character choice, not due to character development. While Iron Man and the Green Lantern have appeared "Merged" as the Green Lantern in a previous mini series of sorts, the two can still be selected here, as they are from different companies. 3. Two characters merged MUST BE OF THE SAME GENDER. Unlike previous sites, and comics/games/works of art, we do NOT allow cross gender merging. It doesn't make sense on our scales, and will not be tolerated. However, gender less beings can be merged with beings that are of either gender. Examples: -Magneton and Dante can be fused. Dante is male, while Magneton is gender less. -Magneton and Ghoul X can be fused. Both characters are gender less. -Daisy and Virgil CANNOT be fused, as they are of different genders. 4. The two characters CANNOT have conflicting personalities. This means that you cannot cross a character who's main purpose at the time is to destroy Planet A, while the other character selected had the goal of saving Planet A. Examples: -Ganon and Mario cannot be merged. One is pure evil, and wishes to relive a universes of its power and crown himself king, while the other is as humble as they come, and attempts to thwart evil at all costs. Evil vs Good cannot be merged. However, every case is disputuable and if you wish to argue a case without posting an application first, use the *Is the character allowed* thread to argue the case, or contact the head of Administration 5. The "Merger" will, at most times, NOT HAVE ALL POWERS FROM BOTH CHARACTERS. While it would be cool, it would also be unfair. However, this does not mean that your character will be de powered, or relinquished of any major or important power. It just means you will not receive ALL powers from both characters. Examples: -Mario and Magneto: The resulting character would have these as "Main Powers" -Fire Creation and Manipulation -Magnetic Manipulation -The ability to levitate -The ability to rotate at high speeds -Will Posses Battle Techniques from both characters* *Battle Techniques consist of "Signature Moves", and famous attacks, such as Mario's fireballs, or Magneto's Magent Orbs. However, this does not mean that the fusion of the two will promise all of Mario's attacks, or all of Magneto's special abilities. 6. Anthropologic characters are allowed. However, for the most part, they will usually be merged with other "Anthro" characters or with characters that are represented through "furries". Characters that are seen as a race but have made appearance outside of their general race are also allowed. Examples: -Yoshi and Cactaur can be merged, despite the fact that Yoshis and Cactaurs are races. This is possible because there is a known Yoshi that appears in the Mario series that aeperates it from the rest of it's race. The same goes for Cactaur. 7. Pokemon and Digimon ARE allowed. However, there are very strict rules when it comes to using them. Pokemon and Digimon MUST be merged with Anthro/Furry characters. While administration can change this rule if they decide that the character is ok, for the most part, this rule will not be altered. On another note, certain Digimon and Pokemon will NOT be allowed. This Includes, but is not limited to; "Legendary" Pokemon, Event Pokemon, "Uber" Pokemon, High Digimon, etc. Regardless, if you would like to use a Digimon or a Pokemon in your merging, you are allowed to. However, administration will have to go over your character, to make sure that it doesn't violate any rules. 8. The merging of a character who's abilities are derived from magic and a character who's abilities are derived from mechanics IS allowed, however, it is not recommended. Such a merger is likely to run into problems with powers and abilities. 9. When choosing a character, if one of the two posses a weapon, and the other doesn't, the resulting merge will give the merged characters a SIMILAR weapon. If both have weapons or dominant special items, the two's fate will be up to the administrators. Examples: -Link & Sonic can be merged. The resulting character will NOT have the "Master Sword". However, it will be the same kind of sword, with the same appearance, because Sonic does not have a weapon. -Link and Dante can be merged. However, because both posses an array of weapons, each weapon given by administration will be a merged version with a different name. Link's Hero Bow and Dante's Artemis would become the Artemis Bow, depending on the RP'ers style and wish. (Approved by administration of course.) Not all weapons and items will be given. All characters will be nerfed of their max power upon starting, so that they don't destroy the entire world. 10. With characters who appear in multiple forms of media, member must choose which form of the character they would like to use. This character will not have the abilities he/she displayed in other forms of media (unless of course they are displayed in the chosen form of media) 11. Members must put a link to their profile in their signature so that backtracking is not necessary. |

Use the following template when posting an "Application" in Denied/Pending Applications
--------------------- After the administration reads your Application, you will be either APPROVED or REJECTED. When you are approved, you are then given the following by administration:
*Note to all Staff: There is an autotopic tool that will post all of this information for you. You will need to edit it for each individual character, but it still provides a basic outline, sans the Friends, Foes, and Misc. sections, which are not really needed. (Note: You are NOT required to post the powers and abilities, items and such. However, if you would like to suggest powers and abilities for your character, or weapons that you believe he should have, or names and such, let administration know. We cannot guarantee that you will receive them, but it can only improve you're chances.) Starting Point -The Starting Point is, like it sounds, the point at which your character will begin his/her/its adventure. It can range from New York, America, to Styx, Hell, it all depends on your history, and where administration thinks you should start. The Year is only important for certain characters, so, must of the time, it will be the current year. Affiliation -Affilation is a major part of your characters adventures. If your character is a "Hero" character, then your character will be given the option of joining several different Hero based factions. The same goes with Neutral, Evil, and Misc. Characters. Not all characters belong to an alliance, but those that do not are usually drifters. Residence -This is where your character lives, or at least sleeps at. Most characters will reside at some sort of Safe House/Learning Area, where they will be able to train, interact with others that are staying there and such. Others will, depending on their alliance, drift from place to place, or even live in a Government based area. It's all up to you (and staff, to a certain degree.) Class: -Class is simply a note marking your character. Characters that are enrolled in a school will be placed under "Student". Certain Students may become parts of teams that the school provides, and their class will change from Student to "Team " " ". Other jobs and residents will receive different classes. Main Powers/Abilties -Main powers; just what it sounds like. ADMINISTRATION WILL GIVE YOU YOUR POWERS. If you would like, you can post what you believe their powers would be. However, if is ultimately up to Character Panel to give you your characters powers. This way, one members character will not be above another members character at the start. Key Items -Key Items are important "Story Line" Items. DO NOT trade, break, or lose them, as you may lose a spot in the story. These are rather rare, so make sure your character handles them well. All items ranging from Keys to Weapons will go under here. Refer to Weapon Creation for the weapons template. Character Relationships -A list of characters your character either Likes or Hates. Rivals do not count, unless they are clashing rivals. History Relationships can go here as well. Misc. -Any information the staff asks you to input here will be strictly story line driven. |
