Here is where I am posting information to the most commonly asked questions... because I really don't wanna answer them more than once... if you have one, PM it to me please... don't post in here....
1.) Where in the world do I start? gonk
*~* Angel's Answer: *~* whee
You start in the Profile section, first page when you hit the 'Guild Fourm' button. You start to fill that out to the specifications.
Post it up... Mark or myself will look over the Profile and accept or decline it and post it at the very top, in green or red, depending on acceptance.
2.) How do I create my character and what in the world does all the stuff on the profile mean? scream
*~* Angel's Answer: *~* whee
Step One: Username
This is where you put your Gaian Screen name.... it's so simple!
Step Two: Chracter Name
Come up with a spiffy name for your character, first and last name is required, middle names are up to you.
Step Three: Race
Choose your race - angel, demon, kitsune, fallen angel, elemental, Siren, Vampire, etc. ((Just be warned that you may have to change the race due to which RP you join.)
Step Four: Class
This is your subrace. Seraphim for the Angels for instance.
Step Five: Age, Sex
This should be pretty self-explanitory.
Step Six: Orientation
Is your character straight, bi or gay. It's that simple.
Step Seven: Affiliation
Good, Light, Evil, Dark, Netural.
Step Eight: Job
((Will explain when Mark and I get it figuered out.))
Step Nine: Biography
Tell us about the history of your character, now we don't need a book... but a few paragraphs are always good to give us a general idea of your charater. IF you are making the character for a certain RP then please make a note somewhere on your profile that the character is for a certain RP, please!
Step Ten: Likes, Dislikes, Weaknesses
Pretty easy and straight-forward.
Step Eleven: Personality
Tell us how your character interacts with others, how they'll react to certain things happening around them... let us in on that chracters personality, I don't want just a 'hot-temepered hot shot' no no no.... give details, so not only can myself and Mark follow it easier, but the other RPers RPing with you can follow it and not have to guess at what you are meaning.
Step Tweleve: Abilities
Okay... here's where this profile is the trickest and yet it will benefit your character to no end.
~ See Abilities Board for a working list and Danger Room for training and applying abilities.
Step Thirteen: Weapons
Pretty simple... tell use the weapons that your character will use. And I DO NOT want to see everyone putting 'katana' please... be resourceful and original... I have seen that weapon used waaaaaaaay too many times.
Step Fourteen: Appearane
Again... very simple, find a picture of what your character looks like. All of their fourms and each needs a human base picture.
3.) Where do I go for what? confused
*~* Angel's Answer: *~* whee
Throne Room:
Here is where the Crew can come in and discuss things.
Training Grounds:
Here you can be trained in the ways of RPing, Combat RPing, Fighting RPing, etc.... anything you need training on, I'm sure there is a teacher here who'll be willing to teach you all about it.
Bazaar:
Here you can sell things within the Guild, or put up questing threads if you are questing for items.... like Angel usually is. < >.< >
Pub:
Here you can hang out, enjoy some food, characters from the one on one RP section can come in and enjoy a good, hearty meal... one that'll stick to your bones.
East Gate:
Here is where one and one RPs will be posted. If you have a desire to do a one on one with someone and don't really want to post it out in the Chatterbox or Barton form, you are welcome to post it here with the person that you are RPing with, peferably someone within the Guild.
West Gate:
Here is where you can post small scale RPs, which will have a 10 person limitation, just due cause we don't want those RPs getting over done and taking focus from the North and South Gate.
North Gate:
Here is where you can post meduim sized RPs, which will have a 20 person limitation.
South Gate:
Here is where you can post larg scale RPs, 20 plus people within these RPs. Thses will be war based RPs, such as Daemonic Wars(Which will be coming back to life soon!)
Den Of Thieves:
Here is where your recruitment for your posted RPs will go. Need people for your RPs because they are going slow? Well... post in the Den and get recruiters!
Beyond The Gates:
Here is where your OOC and OORP will go... this is mainly for people who just want to chit-chat.. and this will make the RPs cleaner and be able to keep all of the chit-chat out of the RPs so they'll remain with only IC posts... Mark and I will scan the RPs and check for OOC and OORP chatter within the RPs and they will be deleted and/or moved.
King's Counsel:
Here is where you come to have your issues heard. If you're having problems within the Guild you need to post them here in order for them to be dealt with and heard about.
4.) What's in the areas of the Guild? eek

I am not explaining them here for Mark has already done a wonderful job of doing so.

c.) Spelling Lists
Here is several forums, five to be exact, that Mark has created to hold most of the mis-spelled words within the Guild so he can keep a record and so you all have something to look back on and learn the spellings of different words... I have been victim to a couple of words he'll put on there and I'm sure that I'll come up with more for him.
d.) Danger Room
Here is a forum in which you can battle other characters/members of the Guild and level up your character. Mark is almost always located here, leveling up his character, along with others whom have decided to train.
