« Thread Started on Jun 4, 2007, 6:32pm »

This is a work in progress, it will be changed, keep reading it to learn the new details.

Character Guidelines

1) All characters must have a first and last name
2) All names must be appropriote to the setting
3) No all powerful characters
4) Your character may be skilled in one or two areas, but make sure to have a good RP reason for it.
5) Supernatural powers are not allowed at this time
6) Your character can't be all good or all evil, things just don't work that way in real life.


Character Form Explanation

Quote:
Occupation:

What does the character do for a living? This may change over the course of the RP.


RP Guidelines


1) Your character does not know everything, do not play like he does.
2) Don't go overboard with graphic sex/violence, keep it PG-13, if it gets worse than that, please make your thread {r}
3) All threads are open (you can start RPing in them) unless it is either locked, specifically marked as only open to certain people.
4) Do not RP in areas that your character is not in. This is important, do not RP in another city without first traveling there.
5) You need to post at least once every other day, this is a fast paced RP so keep up with it, if you do not post for more than a week without saying you will be gone you will possible be deleted.
6) Do not godmod, this means you can't tell other characters what they did.
7) If you fight do not say that you hit the other character, etc, keep it fair.

How this RP works


OK, this RP is very different from any other that I have seen so it would be helpful to describe it a bit. You begin as a citizen of the empire that has been chosen to emigrate to the newly discover lands across the ocean to the west. You begin in the city of Karden and are free to RP there until it is time for your ship to leave. Then you and everyone else who is in the town will begin the journey to the new world. As you travel you will learn to work together and begin to form a social structure, etc. When you land (after about 3 weeks) you will found a settlement and then your adventure really takes off. As the site grows there will be many, many settlements that can all interact with each other, fight, etc.
