General Character Rules


Rule One: No interaction between characters controlled by the same RPer. This means, none of your characters can interact with each other; be it in a battle or training. They cannot be Brothers or Rivals, they can know about each other however, that is it.

Rule Two: In order to prevent the risk of Rule One being broken; you may only have one hero and one villain. Meaning two characters in total, one on either side.

Rule Two Amendment: A Character Shop has recently been opened allowing for the purchase of a 3rd character. However this hero or villain must follow all other character rules. So they cannot be a rival or bonded with your other in anyway.

Rule Three: In further addition to safeguard the sanctity of Rule One if two or more of your characters maybe involved in a battle or conflict you must do one of the following:
a) Choose one of the characters to RP as and withdraw the other from the fight. This may have you accused of picking favourites but in the end it allows you roleplay which is the main aim; strict sanctions will be brought down upon anyone caught bullying because of this rule.
or
b) Remove yourself from the conflict completely, refuse to play all characters and withdraw them all. This may see you not RP but you cannot be accused of being unfair.

Rule Four: No Neutrals are allowed unless approved by a Vice - Captain or Captain. It's good versus evil people, you have to pick a side.

Rule Five: Kryptonians, as well as Daxamites, will be limited to a low number. We cannot have thousands of Supermen and Superwomen flying about without a care in the world. So, for now, we are limiting the the Daxamite/ Kryptonians to Legacy Characters only.

Rule Six: Green Lanterns will be limited to a small number due to their powers also, the current limit is ONE however, it may one day boost up to FOUR with three additional legacies for Kyle Rayner, John Stewart and Guy Gardener respectively.

Rule Seven: There will be no Gods save for the Villain Ares. Gods are far too powerful even in the DC universe and are often left to sit out on the sidelines while the heroes duke it out; Ares is an exception because his powers are severely limited when on Earth.

Rule Eight: Please try your hardest not to make a Mary/ Gary Sues or a Carbon Copy of an Original DC hero. The aim of this guild is to promote creativity and bring to life an entirely new Justice League not to regurgitate the old one.

Rule Nine: Remember, you're only Human and even if you aren't you're not God and your energy reserves are not infinite. YOU WILL GET TIRED EVENTUALLY KRYPTONIAN OR NOT!

Additional Legacy and Villain Character Limitations

Rule One: Maximum of 2 Legacy and Canon Villain characters per 1 RPer. We would prefer it if you only had 1 however, the maximum is 2. These must be split as 1 Legacy and 1 Villain.

Rule Two: There is a maximum limit of 1 Kryptonian per RPer whether its a Legacy Character/ Villain or not.

Rule Three: You cannot control two Legacy or Villain characters with a particularly strong relationship. This is in order to prevent Inter-Personal Character Interaction. An example of a strong relationship would be the Batman Legacy Versus the Joker as rivals; no matter who it is where there's Batman there is a Joker and they will always end up coming together to do battle.

Rule Four: If you do take on a Legacy Character, we ask that you try and keep their power set as close to the Hero they are the Legacy of. There will be no Krpytonian Batman or Cyborg Batman; Batman is human and therefore his Legacy shall be human.

Rule Five: If you do take on a Villain character, you must keep true to the source material.

Rule Six: If you do take an Legacy/Villain character, we are pretty liberal about what pictures you can use for them; however, we must insist that you use a picture that shows them clearly and as DC have envisioned them (more so for Villains).

Rule Seven: If you do take on a Legacy character you may be asked to write the story behind how you realized your destiny for the Storyline forum; we ask for at least 2000 words and for it to be PMed to Roxas. Thanks.
