  • General Posting Rules

    1. If you are not able to RP for a while, please post it in the Hiatus channel. That way I won’t worry about why you are not here.
    2. If you are having problems or concerns about the RP, let me know. There is usually a way around any problem.
    3. If you are unsure about something, ask.
    4. If you have a suggestion, place it in the suggestion box.
    5. Use the mention button. It helps people know you’re talking to them. Especially me
    6. Watch your language! While I prefer not to see swear words, I will allow some pass for it is in everyday life. However, if you happen to be posting with swearing in every post, you will be warned.
  • Making a Character Rules

    Making a Character Rules
    1. No one realizes that they have a 'Magical Core' or that they can do ‘Magick’.
    2. All Characters will have a bad day here or there. Sometimes a Character will become ill or not feeling their best. On the other hand, all Characters will have good days and feel like being able to do anything in the world.
    3. Make an interesting Character. It will make the RP more fun!

    1. Everyone will have mishaps and complications while learning new things. Make a few. Be creative. If you can’t find an unusual way of having a mishap, talk to other Players or ask a Team Leader for suggestions. But you will have to do the creating of a mishap.

    2. Post Length is important! I do not like one liners! Please post at least 3 full sentences of 5 words or at least 15 words minimum; the more, the better. I understand everyone has their own styles, but while I appreciate quality over quantity, there’s not much to be RP to with if the post is less than 3 sentences in my opinion. If it doesn’t keep the RP moving, ADD MORE. I understand if you an occasional lapse, so don’t think about quitting because of this rule. Just mention the reason why you might have less.
    Having troubles getting a long enough post? Read this:
    A. Describe the scenery. Description of the surroundings can provide a hefty paragraph and is good filler material if you're strapped for something to say.
    B. Describe how your character is feeling and why. Are they morose for a particular reason? Are they happy for some reason? Elaborate on this and you may find you that you have written more than enough!
    3. Keep Player Knowledge Separate From Character Knowledge. In the world of Role Play, you are 2 separate people, You as yourself or Player. You as in your character. What you know as a Player and what you know as a character are not the same. If you need help in remembering what your Character knows, use the Journal to jot down any notes that you want to keep.

    HAVE FUN!!!!
