Four generations ago, two academies were built across the road from one another. One would go on to house the finest Superheroes the world would ever know. The other to raise infamous Supervillains that would terrorize humankind. A rivalry has always existed between the two, on which side do you stand?
You're currently viewing our forum as a guest, which means that really - you're not having fun yet. All you can really do is read some stuff and blah blah blah, all that really means is NO FUN. We, the staff, highly encourage you to join up, man! It's loads of fun and we Admins are very welcoming. See the chatbox over to your left? Yep, well don't feel intimidated - chat us up!
We seem to have avoided an overpopulation of villains, so hurrah! Remember that we don't have character limits so you can create to your heart's content as long as you maintain them! And before you skip along your merry way to make a villain, remember also that they tend to get their butts kicked... Heroes can be unpleasant people too, only they do the right thing eventually...
Happy touring!
Oh... and JOIN!
**One last note before you join the party - Please register with a FIRST and LAST name! See existing names as an example!
What, you thought this was going to be massive? HA! Well, true we don't have many and what we do have aren't that hard, nor are they beyond the realms of common sense and regular human decency. You may very well be playing superheroes and supervillains, but it doesn't mean that you get to treat one another like that outside the game. Let's get this little show going, shall we?
1. Godmodding is the ultimate of all evils, it's a no-no. We assume most of you know what that is, but if you don't it's not a source of shame - just PM me or April and we're happy to help you.
2. Respect one another, you're not animals.
3. Respect the staff.
4. Plagarists have a special hell waiting for them and it involves a cricket bat, a screwdriver and a rubber chicken. Don't make us show you what we're talking about.
5. Respect the rules.
6. No slurs, racial, religious, orientation or otherwise. No jokes with this one, it's not going to be tolerated at all. Please please please refrain.
7. Please register with a FIRST NAME and a LAST NAME with no funky wierdy symbols. The name is that of the character you're going to play so's to avoid confusion.
8. We're not going to be cruel about it, obviously, but READ the other guideline posts! It'll help you out a huge wad and prevent hassle.
9. No, you may not play a character from some television show, book series, or movie. Don't even ask. Serious.
10. No DC, Marvel, Darkhorse, etc. etc. heroes - this is a completely original idea, no other-universe people. I don't care how much you love them. It's a flat no.
11. If you want to use a play-by like Hugh Jackman or Christian Bale, you may - As long as you're not making a ripoff of Wolverine or Batman. Because seriously, Martin and I are such epic nerds. We. Will. Notice. And we won't appreciate it.
12. The minimum post length is 6 -7 sentences. We don't ask for alot but for GOD'S SAKE give your RPer buddies something to actually work with! There is further detail about this rule to be found in the News and Announcement board, and let me stress the following - IGNORANCE IS NO EXCUSE.
And there we have it. There aren't even any sneaky passwords or anything hidden in here, so it wasn't all that painful was it? Now go on, ya scamp, go post an application!
Here's the thing... and I'm putting this very VERY simply.
YOU DO NOT GET TO PICK IT UNTIL YOU GRADUATE.
So there's no need to get massively worked up and think so hard your ears start spewing steam trying to come up with one. You have time to consider it and let your character develop to a point where it's easier to find one that suits him or her. I mean, Jules doesn't even have one - but that's because he's a cheeky bastard.
IN ADDITION, as has been stated many times before and will be very many more times, there is no such thing as a thirteen year old superhero/villain in this RP. It just isn't kosher for some prepubescent punk to be running around using wickedly developed powers at that early of an age. That's what the schools are for. So you can't make a character who's a new student and has any number of years heroing experience. That's just not how it's done here.
AGE
Bullet points are my friends...
Oldest students can be is 20.
Youngest a student can be is 14.
Youngest an Instructor/Teacher/Prof can be is 30.
There is no longer an upper limit regarding age, but if their age has something to do with their powers, make it reasonable lest you get a no on the acceptance front.
Any problems, take it up with me or Martin via PM.
