Posting Guidelines
- Entry Level: This site is available to intermediate-advanced roleplaying levels but, there is a 200 word minimum when posting as your character. We don't like to see small posts that have no effort put into them, and we like our members to not feel left out if they receive a couple of sentences in exchange for a three or more paragraph response. For your current word count, look below the reply button to see your current post count.
- Powerplaying: Coupled with godmoding, powerplaying is essentially taking another person's character and playing as them, saying you tore out their heart or something like that without giving them a chance to respond. We have a stat based system and as such, higher stats mean the character is more likely to do damage. Someone with a higher agility will respond and act quicker than one with a lower Agility, hence allowing them little room to counter unless through a special trick. However, full powerplaying is prohibited. The exclusion is staff for events, in which they will ordain an autohit with NPCs should they deem the NPCs strong enough.
- ICC: Stay in character while roleplaying. If you somehow obtain information your character couldn't have possibly known through an Out of Character source, then the post will be considered void. Exceptions may be made if your character has an ability to break the fourth wall, but that is left up to the discretion of the staff.
- Remain In Realm: When posting, if your character's in a certain place like Hueco Mundo, the Living Realm or Soul Society, they have to remain in that place until a proper exiting thread is put into place, entitled [Portal] in the thread title. For example, if you play a Hollow in Hueco Mundo, he/she will have to remain in Hueco Mundo until a Garganta is conjured up to leave the world.
- Appropriate Content: Swearing is allowed as is suggestive themes. Anything that may be classified as hentai is not though. Such acts would be describing sexual or macabre acts in great detail. While we allow such things, please keep it fairly vague. Blood & Gore is fine though.
- Tagging. Alright, this is just a vague explanation of the various tags in threads and what they mean.
- [Open] - Means anyone within the current realm may jump into the thread, regardless of class.
- [Ask] - Means the thread is moderated and have to clear your entry with the creator of the thread first before jumping in.
- [Invite] - Means anyone who has been given the go ahead may hop into the thread.
- [Closed] - Means the thread is closed, and noone aside from those already in the thread may join.
- [1vs1] -Means up to two people may be in the thread. Often, the thread is a sparring thread between the two individuals
- [2vs2] -Means up to three more members may hop into the thread. One takes up the role of the creator's teammate while the others pose as the creator's opponents.
- [1vs2] -Means creator is searching for two individuals to spar with. More often than not, the creator is a stronger individual and requires the combined effort of two to provide a challenge.
- [DE] - Most threads your character is unable to be killed off in, but in death enabled threads, you have to be especially careful because a slight misstep and your character could face an untimely demise. Most often used for certain events.
- [Portal] - A thread that involves the usage of either a Senkai Gate (obtained through perk World Tying Rite) or the use of a Garganta. This thread initiates the moving of a character from one realm to another.
- [Event] - A thread that is open to all members. Event threads are those which shape the history of the site and often are major factors of the story arc. Set up by the Admins or Plot Moderator
- [Quest] - Quests are more character specific and involve a certain event that remains closed to everyone aside from the NPCs of the Plot Moderator and the character who bought the quest.
- [Open] - Means anyone within the current realm may jump into the thread, regardless of class.
