Welcome to the rules. We shall try not to be Hitler here but we do have some keen little ideas we wish you to follow:
1. Post in narrative paragraph form. No Astericks (*) for action. All thoughts may be either done italicized ( [ i ] & [ / i ]) or with 1 quotation ( ' ).
2. This half goes with rule 1 but please use correct grammar (all your "your"s and "you're"s in the right spots etc) and please refrain from being a grammar nazi on those who do mess up on occasion. As long as we can understand where you are coming from, then you'll be fine. No chat speak (u, r, 2, etc).
3. The RP will ONLY be active one day a week. It will start at roughly 8-9PM unless decided otherwise. Be sure to show up.
4. A rule that goes along with rule 3- if you can't make it to an RP night, fret not. Just send the moderator (TakaKagaku) a message either the day before, of, or after and say that you couldn't/can't make it. You'll get an update message back explaining in summary everything you missed so you will never be out of the loop.
5. NO Almightier characters. Everyone can die here (doesn't mean you will) and be severely injured. You may have higher beings of a certain species... but even they can be harmed immensely. For more information, seek the Species forum for information on creatures.
6. PLEASE read the species forum before submitting or exercising your character! We don't want to have to the awkward conversation of "you can't do that" in the OOC or an email sent to your inbox after too many "nuh-uh" moves that could result in the bouncing of your character from the storyline. So please, for your sake and mine, read up on the species you plan to make your character in this roleplay.
7. Swearing and sexual confrontations are allowed BUT... please keep it slightly under R. Don't be talking like a sailor (even if it is in your character to do that) and don't be as horny as a rabbit. This is an attempt at a mostly tasteful roleplay with loads of thick storyline.
8. HAVE FUN. This is all about having fun and building or expanding your writing skills (hence the paragraph form posting we request). If you ever have any questions, just post something in the Q&A forum.
