EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT METAPLOT PART 2  It seems other than a gasmask you are wearing some sort of light, protective armour, boots, and a simple black cloth. Everyone around you is wearing the same thing.
- Your character HAS NEVER HEARD OF HALLOWEEN. EVER. They don't remember their past, and they do NOT remember any terms related to Halloween, other than it being some sort of over-commercialised holiday. Treat your character like a 'human world' character. They have a strong understanding that they ARE indeed human, and cannot do things such as fly, teleport, magic, etc etc, obviously.
- Your character also understands DEATH IS PERMANENT. Death is death, THE END. They are here for an unknown reason, but they know they DO NOT want to die. In fact, survival is key and first most for them.
- Your character is wearing a GAS MASK. It CAN NOT be taken off at any time, though they are free to take off some of their armour... if they want to die faster.
- In addition, your character seems not to need to eat, though sleeping and other functions are still necessary.
- IT IS UP TO YOU how you want to rp the 'personality' of your character: all characters have their own unique personality, but it's just a matter of not knowing why they are here and not exactly, what they are. Once again, survival trumps identity. - Each character also has a cell phone that for some reason they were carrying. Each day, the cellphone sends strange text messages of important significance, you MUST READ AND REACT ICLY to the messages here TO FURTHER THE PLOT. Your cellphone is strapped to your belt, it is not leaving anywhere anytime fast.
- You can only RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES ON YOUR PHONE, for some reason attempting to respond to the message or use any other function other than READ NEW TEXT yields nothing.
Cell phone events will consist of three categories:
1) DAILY LOTTERY: At the end of the (IC) day a "DAILY LOTTERY" will commence. Four students will be requested to take a map and head towards "The Cove". Anyone who fails to do so who has been chosen will instantly be killed.
2) RANDOM EVENT: At random intervals during the IC days, random events will happen. This can happen in ANY area, and increase the chances of supplies and clues to be given, but also increase the chances of death. However, no clue = no leaving this island! In fact, in a lot of random events, if you do not participate your character will instantly find themselves very dead, at not having a very key item.
3) CLUE: Occasionally the cell phone is generous and will text a very big clue such as "GO TO __ LOCATION". The map of the location will also be texted.
- If you do so, please mark this as [LOCATION NAME] SOME FANCY TITLE HERE
- ANYONE however can wander into your thread to engage in combat (PVP) with you, so be careful!
- All user created threads are fair game for combat and battling, you CANNOT hide in them (see below for hiding details)TRAVELLING/ MOVING SUBFORUM LOCATIONS:
- When TRAVELLING IS OPEN, your character has the option of moving subforums to another location.
- You will have to post in the TRAVELLING thread in your subforum if your character is moving, and follow the rules as to how to travel to the next thread.
- Your character CAN NOT be attacked while traveling, and can only do so once per IC "day" (There are 7 IC days total and almost a month's worht of OOC RP so you do the math!)

YOUR CHARACTER IN ACTION: HP VALUES:
- Your character starts out with 30 HP. This value does NOT go up, unless you have bandages or still have use of your first aid kit
- Once your HP value drops to 0, your character is DEAD. Be sure to move them to the character death thread and have them post their final post there.
FIRST AID KIT:
- You can use your first aid kit exactly two times. You can only use it outside of a battle ergo: you cannot use a first kit while engaged in battle with someone. Using your first aid kit will heal you to full HP
- PLEASE DO NOT try to "sneak" using your first aid kit: if any of the 8 GM's catch you doing so, you will be BANNED from this event
OPEN BATTLE OR HIDING:
- Your character only has TWO options, OPEN BATTLING or HIDING. If your character is wandering in ANY thread not marked with a GM [HIDING] title, they are in OPEN BATTLE status. That means they are free to attack anyone and anyone is free to attack them. More than one person can attack a character at a time as long as they are in the same thread. You can only be in one battle at a time (in that thread) and cannot post in two threads at once with your character. Your character can only be in one location and one battle at a time. This means your character can only be in ONE RP THREAD at a time! When they are ready to leave that thread please mark it with an EXIT THREAD
- Please make sure your character has an IC REASON to attack the character in your attack post. Do not just randomly quote someone and roll a dice unless you can justify why your character did so.
FLEEING IN MID-BATTLE/ HIDING
- If your character is overwhelmed and would like to flee mid-battle, they may do so at any point of the battle. Doing so, please post your EXIT CHARACTER mark and move to the gm HIDING thread marked in your location. HIDING will make your character hidden to other players, but vulnerable to strange creatures lurking in the shadows (GM's). If a GM from the shadows attacks your hidden character, your character becomes engaged in a one-on-one fight with them. If they lose, they will also die.
- You CANNOT flee from a GM battle.
- AT ANY POINT IN TIME YOU CAN ONLY CHOOSE ONE ACTION IN YOUR POST, ATTACK OR FLEE, you cannot attack someone and then flee in the same post, or within two posts of the same turn, without waiting for your opponent to respond. Imagine this like a turn based RPG. You can only have one action per turn.
- Your character may also opt to simply hide for most of the game, that is okay too but you will lose interaction points in the rp judging standpoint.
ATTACKING AND TURNS:
- You CANNOT attack twice in one round. A round consists of you AND your opponent exchanging attacks. That means, if you attack person A, you cannot hit them again until person A has rped an appropriate response. If you and your friend attack person A, both of you must wait for person A to respond appropriately.
- Please only focus on your target in terms of waiting turns. For example, I am focusing on person A. I must wait for my TARGET, person A, to respond. If I switch targets after person A has responded to person B, I am now waiting for person B to respond. Person E F G H pounding on me does not hinter my abilities whatsoever. If person Z is not your target, but they are being at by your friend, IT DOES NOT AFFECT YOUR WAIT TIME
- IF person A has taken longer than 24 hours to respond to your attack post, you are longer to post with a EXIT post on the same turn. Ie: I attacked Bob. Bob has not answered for a whole 24 hours. I can post again, and say that my char has just let Bob be (Exit post). I cannot do this action normally otherwise, as it would be considered taking two turns in one post.
- Your character has very little weapon mastery and it shows
- You may also opt to use your melee attack INSTEAD of your weapon on a turn, if doing so, please specify. YOU CANNOT MELEE AND USE YOUR WEAPON on the same turn.
- PLEASE QUOTE THE PERSON YOU ARE TARGETING'S MOST RECENT POST if you are engaged in battle with them. This will help THEM know they are being attacked too! If they respond with [FLEE] your opponent has fled!
- IN YOUR POST PLEASE: Roll your respective dice, post how you are attacking (which weapon OR MELEE), your target, YOUR HP, and of course an edited in RP response. Please see the quoted sample below.
BB handgun:
- Roll 1 10-sided die. If odd your attack misses, if even your attack hits for the total damage - 3.
IE: I rolled a 11, I miss. OR I rolled a 10, I do 10 - 3 = 7 damage.
Short dagger:
- Roll 2 4-sided dice and average the results. This is your damage dealt.
IE: I rolled a 3 and a 2. I do 3 + 2 = 5 / 2 = 2.5 damage. Round to the nearest number, in which case the final damage is 3.
Bandages:
- Roll 1 6-sided dice. This is the amount you heal yourself OR someone else for, you can only use it once per turn.
Stake:
- Roll THREE 4-sided dice and average the results. Round up to the nearest number.
Mace:
- Roll 1 8-sided dice. If odd you hit yourself for half the damage, if even you hit the opponent for the full damage.
Nunchucks:
- Roll 2 8-sided dice. The first roll is the damage you do to yourself, the second is the damage you to to the other person Sample attack post Melee **** ROLL YOUR DICE FIRST *****ZOO IS * ATTACKING* (Here, you can specify if you are attacking of FLEEING, if you flee, please make sure to move your char to the HIDING thread) Zoo was furious. How dare they attack her only special Princess Fluffikins rare elite minipet? They grabbed their nunchuck, and hit themselves in the process, but also gave their opponent a light smack with the weapon!((Zoo rolls a 6 and a 4)) Weapon being used: Nunchuck Total damage to self: 6 HP Total damage to opponent **LIST NAME HERE**: 4 HP Total HP value left: 26
- Please read the death subforum RULES before getting comfortable in there, thank you!
- DEATH IS NOT THE END OF YOUR CHAR, please continue rping, or you will be considered 'inactive' from the end game prizes!

DUE TO A GLITCH WITH THE CHARACTER BEING "unkillable" this rule has BEEN REMOVED AND IS NO LONGER IN EFFECT FROM THIS POINT ONWARDS: REMOVED RULE - If you and your whole group of friends attack person A and drop their HP to 0, instead, their HP will remain at 1 until they have a chance to respond of whether to flee or continue attacking (at 1 HP)
