I. General Forum Rules II. Rules Regarding Characters III. Rules Regarding Abilities IV. Rules Regarding Ranks V. Rules Regarding Battle I. General Forum Rules Don't spam. Post things in the correct forum, don't do two posts in a row (there's an edit button for a reason), and don't make totally pointless posts. Don't swear too much. An occasional curse is fine, especially in character, if it's the sort of character who would swear. But don't be a dick about it. No flaming. Arguing is fine. Constructive criticism is fine. "That sucks go die" isn't. In general, abide by the rules you agree to when you register your account. Don't post illegal stuff. No porn. Nothing x-rated. (But feel free to send me all that stuff on AIM or MSN ;)) Basically, don't be a dick. II. Rules Regarding Characters One character per account, no account limit per person. Make as many characters as you want, you don't have to tell me which ones are you unless you want to. (that stops us from being mean to you based on who you are. In theory.) Use the character template, post it in the right forum, and don't rp until it's been approved. Your character can be of ANY background, with the following caveat: -If they are not part of The Hub, and do not join, they get none of the Abilities until they do. Once they do, they get all the abilities they should have had at that rank. Weapons are allowed. Just put them somewhere in your profile. III. Rules Regarding Abilities Each rank, you gain a single ability. You can take any level one ability at any point, after that, as long as you have all required prerequisites, you can take any ability. Instead of taking a new Ability, you can upgrade an old one to make it more powerful. Abilities take a decent amount out of you. The more powerful, the more they take, so remember that while rping. Exactly how much any given thing takes out of you is left to you to decide, but don't godmod. Once in a while a reward may be granted giving a free Ability. IV. Rules Regarding Rank Rank is determined by post count. The first two ranks are relatively unimportant and will fly by quickly, but the third is usually where you start to get useful Abilities, depending on how you pick your character. At each rankup, you are required to go to the Trauma Center for counseling. You can control the counselor in your own post. Note that, if you are short just one post, you can use the Counseling session to increase your rank. Also note that if you make a thread in the Trauma Center at any other point, you can still control your own counselor in your own post, or if you do not, a storyline will post. Rank also determines what your character knows. Certain rankups will give your character access to more knowledge, which will be sent to you via pm. The Initiate infodump is located in News Station & Information Center, and consists of public knowledge. V. Rules Regarding Battle If you fight a person at some point, and they stop responding for two days (48 full hours) then you can consider the fight forfeited. They do not die, but they do throw the match. If you fight a storyline character and they do not respond for 48 full hours, then you can consider the match won, and decide the fate of your opponent, live or die. No meta-thinking. If you know something and your character doesn't, you should only act on what the character knows. You must state what you are doing in your post. No hidden sneak attacks, no surprises. If your opponent continually acts as if their character knows things that they shouldn't be able to, then complain, and we'll make a ruling. No killing other people's characters without getting the all clear from them, first. Unless a specific ruling or temporary rule says otherwise. If your character ends up dead, you may, under specific circumstances, be able to make a new character at the same rank. PM me to find out if the circumstances apply. |
