RULES


DO NOT join a rp until your character has been accepted. If you do this, you have obviously not read the rules, and your character submission will not be accepted for another 3 days. I will PM you that your character is checks out.

Do not attack other clan members in the rps unless you have discussed it with the person before hand and make a quick note of that in your post. Arguments are fine between two characters, but if these arguments are dragged into the other boards and obviously isn't just part of the game, you'll be getting in trouble.

No powerplay or god-modding. Read 'Godmod' for more.

You may join up to 2 threads at a time.

If you are leaving for a vacation or whatever, please try not to join anymore threads, and ask that when you leave, the threads you ARE in are paused.

I won't limit the number of people allowed in a thread, but the thread creator may specify how many people can join, or if only certain people are allowed.

You may only have one zOMG character, but you are free to bring in minor characters, such as official Gaians (Liam, Sasha, etc.) when you please. You can kill made up characters, but not official Gaia characters.



'Godmod'


Godmodding, for those who don't already know, is basically just making your character seem TOO powerful. Also, controlling someone else's character without permission falls as Godmodding.

Below is what is and is not ok for the rps. PM me if you think anything should be changed or added.

Allowed:
Immortality/slowed aging as long as the character is under 500 years old.

Banned:
Controlling, attacking, and/or killing someone else's character without permission.
Super powerful attacks that are claimed to be unstoppable or nearly unstoppable.
Making up your own new rings.
Harming an Animated without any rings.



Character Information


Anything stated above counts!

Character race is nearly unlimited, but let's cut out any 'God' or 'Godlike' races, it would most likely fall under godmod. You can also not play an Animated.

Characters can carry extra weapons beside rings, but remember they will be useless on the Animated.

If you want your character to have special connections (family, love, secret past) please discuss it with the character's owner ahead of time. I don't need to be notified about anything with this.

Try to keep ages realistic, anyone under the age of 14 is really going to just die against a bunch of reanimated items. So let's keep it 14 and up.

If you want to add something to your character, but you aren't sure if it'll be allowed or not, ask me or a crew member.



Battle


When fighting the Animated, one or two people in the rp (most likely a crew member or the person who started the rp) should play as the Animated themselves, but anyone can have control over them. Just be careful, because if everyone's messing around with what the Animated are doing, things could get a bit confusing.

Remember where the Animated are found, I don't want to see Lawn Gnomes running around Deadman's Pass.

You may only use rings you have IN GAME. Obviously, I don't have much power to double check, so just be honest.

You can update your ring equips in the character bio whenever you level them up or get a new one.

Just like in the game, you can only use up to 8 rings.

'Combo' style attacks with another character are interesting and would be a fun addition, as long as you both know what's going on in the fight.



Out of Character


Out of Character posting is perfectly fine, but only if we can tell what's in character and what's ooc. When you make a post, put any ooc notes at the very top or very bottom of the post.

Examples:
((This is out of character!))
This is the roleplay post!
or
This is the roleplay post!
((This is out of character!))

However you feel like doing it.

Timeline


This is the timeline, which will be used to organize the roleplays!

Every first post of a rp, please, PLEASE post the day it is taking place.

Day 1 is the VERY first day the clan is formed, so only Claire, ((Tatsuno)) and one or two others will show up. After day one, everyone can come in as they please. Since people will be joining over a span on time, it's best for characters to come in around whatever Day most people are on when the new character is posted, that way we don't need to backtrack very much.

Day 1
Midnight Greetings
