What is this event?
JLUnited, our AU Marvel & DC RP Game, is hosting a sort of 'Open House' In Character Summer Event! You don't have to be a player on JLU to join in the fun on Discord, though our forum half of the event will require you to go through the usual joining process. Our event on Discord requires no character apps, references, or other prerequisites, though we do ask that you follow JLU's House Rules.

IC Bruce Wayne is hosting a charity event at his manor in Gotham City! No one needs an invitation to attend, it's an open event. There will be a pool, cookout food, and plenty of party games. A heatwave has been striking Gotham City all week, and everyone could use a chance to cool off in a gigantic pool and have some fun.

Event Rules
★ No references required, but use common sense!
No character apps are required! You don't need the DM's approval to jump in with a character. If you feel like giving others a character app, bio, or visual reference to go off of, there's a space to leave it on the server. Please note that while none of these things are required, we do recommend one as it is often helpful to give others at least a quick reference to go off of.

Keep in mind that while we are accepting canons and original characters from all over for this event, they should still fit in with the genre of the site. That means that Darth Vader or Link, or an OC from the Lord of the Rings world probably aren't good choices.

★ Check your tail at the door, please!
The JLUniverse is a world full of strange beings, a fantastic blend of monsters and men, magic and technology, mutants, aliens, and people who fly. That being said, those who look distinctly inhuman are often met with suspicion in this world. Someone with blue skin or a tail likely wouldn't be seen walking easily down the street. Things like talking animals and fire breathing dragons do exist, but usually in the shadows, not at a Wayne Manor pool party. Keep this in mind when joining.

That's not to say inhuman characters can't join us, but likely they would be in some sort of disguise this out in the open-- an illusion spell, a hologram, or even a big trench coat-- get creative, but make sure to use your common sense here!

★ Don't type with your face!
This event will be more lax in terms of caring about where your writing is at, but we do expect everyone joining to be able to form sentences that won't make their English teachers cry. Discord has a built in Spellchecker. Use it! Keep a general eye on your grammar and spelling and we'll be happy.

★ No one likes a party pooper!
This is meant to be a fun, light hearted event. If you have a villain, feel free to join with them, but keep them in their civvies, so to speak. This isn't the place for world conquering schemes or pick pocketing, and while not everyone has to get along, if altercations become more than words, IC security will escort your characters out. Please keep the mood of the event.

★ 18+ Only, Sorry Kiddos, No NSFW Content
Just like the site, this event is OOCly 18+ Only. That being said, any mature or NSFW content should be taken to private messages. Not everyone wants to read that. Swearing is fine as long it avoids hate speech like slurs.

Setting the Scene
The cookout encompasses the Wayne Manor's massive pool, sprawling gardens, and even allows a peek at some of the famous mansion's interior spaces, with the main library and entry hall being opened up for visitors. The rest of the house has been very carefully blocked off from curious eyes, and security ensures that privacy is kept, as well as serving to keep an eye out for party goers getting a bit too into the festivities.

Along with food and drink, pool floats, picnic blankets, and frisbees have been provided for those who want to use them. With the temperatures soaring to 100 plus this weekend, the event is bound to be a popular one, particularly with rumors of Bruce Wayne himself manning the grill!

OOCly, this event will cover a span of three days, August 11th to the 13th, but for those who these things matter, ICly the event is only one day, and takes place on August 11th. Feel free to come and go during this time as you like-- we'll be having plenty of events and games, both in character and out! We've posted this one day early to allow people to look around before hopping in, but feel free to stay and chat with us until the event begins!

The event is starting now! Still plenty of time to join in on the fun!

Jcink is down at the moment, but we're still having fun on our Discord game! Come join the rp fun and watch a movie with us!
