GENERAL RULES:
- Above all else be respectful! This includes guests, members, moderators and admins. If a mod/admin asks you to fix something they only ask because it's in their jobs. If a member has a suggestion please listen to it even if you disagree and if you do, politely say why and make your point short and sweet.
ACCOUNTS:
- Please only one account per person. You may use more than one character per account however. To make things easier for the mods/admins and other members who may or may not be RPing with you, please write down any additional characters you use in your original character's application.
- If you are using a character that is not your default, please keep that character to a separate color. Example: if your default character (usually your log in name) is Steve and his color is black, make your secondary character, Mark, blue.
- Signatures should be no larger than 480x80. This keeps graphics a bit lower and also helps those with smaller screens see more on their monitor.
WARNINGS AND BANS
- After you break a rule, you will receive a warning. Moderators and administrators keep track of who has warnings and how many.
- After 1 month, if you have not broken any additional rules, you will get one previous warning removed. That DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN BREAK THAT RULE AGAIN!
- After two warnings, you will be unable to post for X amount of days. Moderators can choose NO MORE than 7 days to ban you. After 3 warnings, you will be removed from the forum.
- If you happen to break a rule on accident the warning may be removed earlier than the 1 month period.
POSTING:
- As the board is 13 and up, your grammar and writing abilities should be a bit bigger than one syllable words! We expect to see good writing from all of you. Make things interesting, descriptive, and appealing to you and your RPing partner (and the moderators who read the posts!)
- If the topic is between two characters or three, please put (Character names here ONLY) in the title. This makes sure that the topic stays between 2-3 characters and no awkward intrusions occur.
- You may join ONE topic per month. If you wish to join another, please PM an admin or moderator and ask if you can join another topic. This makes sure that we don't have too many of the same people posting while others sit idle.
- You MAY post eroticism in the designated forums if you are 18 and older. DO NOT MAKE AN EXTRA ACCOUNT just to post eroticism, you will be banned. If your topic is going to be erotic, put X in the title's name.
SPECIES:
- Currently the species we offer to RP as are:
- Werewolves
- Vampires
- Centaurs
- Gnolls
- Fairies (Sprites, pixies)
- Mermaids (Sirens)
- Witches (Warlocks, wizards, wiccans)
- Ogres
- Demons and angels (NO god-modding though
- Human-furries (Humans with animal tails or ears)
- Kitsunes
- Tengus
- Nagas
- Chimaeras
- Humans. These can be normal humans, or humans with slight powers
ANY BEING NOT LISTED CAN BE ADDED. PLEASE ASK TALON TO DO SO.
FIGHTING AND INJURY:
- Fights may happen in RPs. However, damage cannot be accounted for because YOu say it can be. This is called powerplaying.
Examples: GOOD EXAMPLE: Steve leaped at Jim, his dagger drawn, aiming for his chest. BAD EXAMPLE: Steve leaped at Jim, his dagger drawn, plunging deeply into Jim's chest. You may each take damage if you so choose but your characters are NOT invincible!
- UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN YOU DISMEMBER A CHARACTER! Unless their character has one arm or something and they need a reason for that arm/leg to be lost, then yes it can happen. However, please tell a moderator first of said dismemberment, which topic, and which character will be victimized.
- ONLY YOU CAN KILL OFF YOUR OWN CHARACTER. You can NOT get it back however. Once your character is dead, it remains dead/gone forever.
POWERS AND ABILITIES:
- Since this forum is about mythological creatures, we all know they are close to but NOT immortal. They all usually have their own abilities, which are typically speed and power. These are allowed but cannot become godmodding.
- Special abilities, like telekinesis and laser vision, must be used in small doses and cannot become super powerful. Yes, your character is a mermaid and can breathe underwater; that doesn't mean they can stay there the entire topic.
HEALING: Your character can heal themselves but gradually over time. You cannot go from near death to suddenly perfectly fine. If your character isn't human, their bruises and cuts can heal SLIGHTLY faster than those of a human character. In short, if you are hurt, you can heal slowly over time or use a healing spell to lessen your wounds. You cannot go from near-death to perfectly fine with either option.
HAVE FUN ABOVE ALL AND HAPPY ROLEPLAYING!
