[ C H A R A C T E R • R U L E S ]
[/color] Humans are humans. They have no abilities. No pointy ears, no horns, no tails, no fangs, no claws, etcetera. However, they may have "odd" hair/eye color - red, green, blue, purple, green, whatever.Races
•» Demons have unique physical marks - wings, fangs, claws, tail, pointy ears, cat/fox/wolf/whatever ears, odd markings, whatever. They also have unique abilities that humans can't have (more details below).
•» Demons have the same lifespan as humans. They age the same, they die around the same age, etc. I will not allow immortals. I don't feel like dealing with a bunch of demons "as old as the beginning of time" that are going to high school.
•» There aren't any 'half demons.' For those born of a human and demon they take after one or the other - human or demon.
This may change after we get enough members, but for now that's how it is.
•» No demon forms! They have one form for now. This may change once I'm sure no one will start creating something like a "50 foot tall dog that can crush the city with one step" or something.
May change eventually, but for now I don't want any.
•» Naturally some of either race are prejudice against each other, but it's not excessive. (So don't put in your profile "being a demon/human she/he was picked on a lot"). In THIS roleplay demons and humans have been living together as long as animals and humans have. Alternate Universe, if you want.[/ul]
Abilities
This may also change once we get more members, but again, this is how it is now.
•» You may NOT have an ability that can:
More may be added if I see something outrageous, but for now this is it. Try to be reasonable and a bit humble. You may have ANY power as long as it is within reason.
Also may be subject to change, but it depends on how good everyone is.
•» For students/minors: you may not be able to completely control your power to its full potential. It's another reason as to why you're still in school.
•» Demons must have at least one ability (and unique physical trait), but do not give them a ridiculous amount of abilities.
•» You may ADD abilities through the roleplay. BUT you MUST contact a staff member and ask permission first. You may NOT take away an ability unless you give a reason.[/ul]
Other
•» Try not to use the same last name as someone else. The Approved applications will be alphabetized so it'll be easier for you to check. First names I don't really care about, you can have the same as someone else if you desperately love that name.
•» I already said it, but I'll say it again. Your character will age normally. You cannot have characters that are "eight thousand years old" or anything ridiculous.
•» Students may only have up to two part-time jobs. Adults may have up to two full-time jobs or three part-time (though that would be unbelievably difficult, still common).
•» This is a high school roleplay. I don't want an elf from the medieval ages or a robot from the future or an evil warlord out to take over the world.
•» If you're using an image it must be anime, manga, or some form of art. Do NOT use celebrities. It just looks messy.
•» If you can, try to find an anime/manga/animated character to portray yours. It's a bit easier and you are bound to find more images. We have a nifty li'l claim so you can see who's taken and who's not. If you don't use a character then that's perfectly fine, of course. The image will still be in the claim.
•» As usual, no perfect characters. Flaws are more fun. Also, try to make your character interesting! Give them a unique personality, some odd quirks, maybe a dark secret (within reason), or something to make them fun.
•» I'm stressing it again: this is a modern [fantasy] high school roleplay. Please keep to this genre.
•» GOLDEN RULE: Keep your characters in character as much as you can. If you have a girl who is "very shy and reserved" but I find out that you throw her in a party where she gets drunk and makes out with everyone you know I'll deny the application. Little things are fine, but if you pull a full swing like that then your application will be rejected.[/ul][/sub][/blockquote][/blockquote]
Your application will be denied if:
There may be more reasons, but most of it is common sense.
