REGISTERING AND CHARACTER CREATION
Registering When making an account, make it as your characters name. Please try to use capitalization and spacing if you have a last name. When you register, please make sure you read all of the rules so that we can avoid running into problems with your app. This site is not for anyone under the age of 13.
If you are younger than 13, we will ask if you have parent permission to be on here, because this site allows swearing, sexual relationships (with warnings on the topics) and violence. Code of ApprovalWe don't want people joining and getting away with not reading the rules. To stop that, we are now having a code of approval for new members who join the site. In order to be approved, they must read through the rules of the site and look for the code of approval, in which there is a message there. It is only one short sentence, and all you have to do is simply copy and paste it to the area in your application. We will be changing this message weekly, so that no one can just look at other applications for it.
Ban ListMake sure to check the ban list so that you do not add anything to your character that is not allowed. If anything you put is on that list, we will politely confront you about what you have. If any admins or mods confront you in any way that is insulting, harassing, and/or offending in any way, please tell the ROOT Admin of this issue.
Custom CharactersCustom characters on the site MUST follow these rules when making their character. You may only be ONE class. No cross-classes like being an Exorcist/Noah Member. When making your template, exorcists may NOT be allied with the Millennium Earl/Dark Prophet unless with special permission. All members must start out as a level 1 anything. In order to level up, you must earn ryo by either advertising or posting on the site.
Relating to Canons Relating to canons is prohibited. If you want to be a canon's sibling so bad, be an ACTUAL sibling of theirs, or if they don't have one, be them.
Canon Characters Canon characters are allowed, even in the Alternate Universe. If you sign up as a Canon and your spot as (General, Chief, etc.) is not taken, it's up for you to take. If it is already taken, then you may either be promoted to something higher (if possible) or you must come up with a storyline for that character to say what happened to why he lost his spot, and that he is now currently doing so and so. When being a canon character, please try to stay in character personality-wise.
Face-ClaimingThis is completely optional, but for any custom characters who want to avoid finding other characters using the same picture as them, you may direct yourself to the creation area to post in the "Face-Claiming" topic within the "Character Sheets" forum.
Activity Please try staying active, we don't need to have 200 accounts here and only 5 are active. If you do not stay active, your accounts are suspended. If you're only active with one character and hardly play as the other, please delete your other character. If you're going to be away from the computer for a long period of time for any reason--please make a topic in the "Hello-Goodbye" section. After several months of inactive users, deletion of accounts may be necessary.
If you are inactive for two weeks, all positions you have are taken away and open for someone else.Multiple Characters When it comes to making characters, we are pretty lenient. We will allow you to be two canon characters, and as many custom characters as you like. Our only rule on this is that before creating another character, your previous account before it must have
at least 50 posts.
Storylines There is a
story line to this. We will have a summary of the story line in a topic under Storyline. Follow it, or things will get confusing for us and yourself.
Innocence/Anti-Akuma WeaponsOn your character sheet, you are to explain what your weapon is and where the innocence is located (sometimes it is located throughout the entire weapon, or just concentrated on one spot...) and you must limit your power. For new members, we will allow you to be in sync with your weapon at 60% or below, unless with a very expertise roleplaying sample, or permission from an admin (which includes recommendation from an Admin). Depending on how much Innocence Experience you have, it means you can go up 5 percent, which will be explained in the guide.
Character Approval Only
Administrators and
Moderators will be approving characters. Please remember to keep in mind you also are unable to roleplay until an Administrator or Moderator approves it. In order to have your character sheet approved, it
MUST have a roleplay sample so we can see where you are in RP. We don't want inexperienced generals or godmodders. So PLEASE include your RP sample.
ROLEPLAYING
Roleplaying This is a text-base roleplaying site, which means we do not allow speed RP. Speed RP includes the following.
- -walks away- ur stupid.
- *walks away- ur stupid.
- She wlks awy and says: your stupid.
- wlks away, your stupid.
- wlks awy n says ur stpd
See how obnoxious that is? Please use complete sentences and try to keep grammar and spelling errors to a minimum. This is not meant to be an RP site for elite characters though, so it does not matter if you do one sentence posts, or 5 paragraph posts. Just have fun!
Roommates and Teams (Exorcists) Once, said exorcist is approved, they will be assigned to a dorm room in whichever branch they have requested to be in. They are not allowed to pick which dorm they are put into, and they are not allowed to pick their roommates. Whoever your roommate is, will be your exorcist partner on missions.
Suites are dorms that only have one person within them. If you have one, it means that
you are a Level 3 or above, in which you may request someone to be your partner for each mission you are on. It does not have to be the same person for each mission you do. If you are residing in a dorm without a second resident, you will do lone missions, or take part in missions with other exorcists who are in suites or other lone dorms.
Godmodding and Metagaming Please no
godmodding. We don't need you dodging every attack, controlling characters, instant-killing, or using more power than you actually have. To do so is unfair and ridiculous.
We also are not allowing metagaming, which is when you know something your character should not know about, but act as though they know it anyways.
Example: Lenalee was taken to Earl's Castle, but Allen doesn't know it. The players of Lenalee and Allen discussed what was going on, and regardless of the fact that Allen isn't supposed to know where she is, instantly gains that information and arrives there as if he knew everything all along.
We don't need know-it-all's. It takes away from the fun.
Relationships Relationships are allowed and recommended during the RP experience. You may fall in love with whoever you please, and it does not matter who they are, regardless of race or gender. If you fall in love with the enemy, that spices up the story. We only ask that you keep ages appropriate and remember the canon rule; stay in character.
If you plan on making "lemon" topics, in other words, sexual topics, that is as well allowed. Please remember to put "PRIVATE" in the title. Yaoi and Yuri are both allowed.
DeathIf you are killed, you are
dead. End of story. There are no ways to cheat death. Once you die, you cannot return. The only time you can revive yourself, is when someone instant-kills you, or joins a private topic of yours and kills you within it.
NOAH CLAN MEMBERS: On this site, the only way NOAH clan members may die, is if they are killed while in their true form. That means that it must be the form that they truly appear like while in their natural Noah skin (usually monstrous)
KillingKilling a member of this site without the consent of that person is not permitted at any time. No one deserves to get their player killed without their knowledge. Instant killing is unacceptable. Death matches ARE allowed, but there must be consent between both characters, and the topic title must include "Death Match" in it.
THIS DOES NOT APPLY FOR NOAH AND AKUMA. Noah clan members and Akuma may be killed if spotted by an Exorcist or other character at any time, because they are so difficult to kill.
OUT OF CHARACTER
Advertising Advertising is guest friendly! We don't recommend doing lots of guest advertising, but it is allowed. If you decide to advertise on our site, you give us full permission to advertise back onto your own site. If there is a problem with us advertising on your site, your advertisement on our site will be deleted.
Code of approval: I am a slave to the Order, despite the fact that I may or may not be a Noah. Or if my name is Noah. Or I know anyone named Noah. Or, if said person named Noah was also a Noah himself. We have no relations.
Administration and ModerationIf you are given special privileges by one of the administrators, you are not to abuse the power. Do not rank yourself highly if you do not deserve it and do not take advantage of chatbox moderation power. You are
only to kick people from the chat if they disrupt the chat in any way by disrupting the rules of the site
. At first, I'll give you a warning and strip you of your power for 48 hours. If it happens again, you're power is stripped permanently.
LanguageSwearing is not prohibited, but we do wish for you to keep it to a minimum. We would prefer that you only swear when in character, but it is not required. There will absolutely be no swearing to offend or hurt another member of the site while not in RP. If we find out that this is being done for so, severe consequences will take place.
CHAT BOX RULESADVERTISING ON THE CHATBOX IS PROHIBITED. That is what the Advertisement forum is for under "OTHER".
Please be respectful on the chatbox and keep swearing to a minimum if possible. Respect any mods within the chatbox, and have a good time!
