Commandments
I. Laws of Morality
- Proboards is Almighty: Abide by Proboards rules and regulations. We are very fortunate to be hosted by the almighty Proboards. Provoke the Proboards, and many shall suffer. We highlight that we do not tolerate sexual content because the almighty Proboards holds a disdain for it. You write something sexually graphic, you're getting booted off, or else the almighty Proboards will boot us off.
- Respect is also Almighty: We expect maturity from all our members. Please exercise your ability to respect each other. OOC drama is not tolerated. We will issue warnings accordingly and take the best possible actions to ensure all of our little angels (and demons) are comfortable. This is to be a comfortable environment where everyone feels welcome! If you have read this far, please tell us the vice that plagues you the most.
- Plagiarism is a Sin: Don't do it. If we discover you stole someone's work, we will ask you to remove it. If you do not remove it, dishonor on you, we will remove it and you will be banned.
- One Body per Soul: Simple. Every character gets their own account.
- Be Yourself, Correctly: Please stay in character (IC). If you stop being IC, we will notify you so you can make corrections. We reserve that right to confront you. Even with OCs. Better be acting like how you are in your sheet.
- Keep it in the Closet: Keep them skeletons in the closet. If you have any OOC drama, please take it to private IMs and PMs. We'd hate to witness hatreds outside of the roleplaying world.
- What is Time: This RP is liquid. Of course, events will be running on a linear time, but this is liquid. The time is flexible, but please stay in the same time period. Of course, flashback threading is allowed.
- Who are You: OOC accounts are not allowed. Only IC accounts. Except the staff. They need those accounts.
- Keep Your Clothes: We are PG-13. As in no rape, brutal murder, or other terrible crimes to be narrated. Profanity, sex, drugs, etc that are not described in great detail is allowed... but there's that fine line. Sex is fade-to-black as always.
II. Laws of Humanity
- The Players: We accept Nyotalias and OC's. However, no rivers, cities, provinces, oceans, planets, Narnia, Neverland, Albion, and anything of the like. We will not accept them no matter how "good" they are. Ancient civilizations like the Roman Empire and Ancient Greece are not accepted unless you confront us about the matter.
- Coherency: You must be keen to the correct use of grammar, punctuation, and the literary devices. Occasional mistakes are fine, but if consistencies occur, we will address this immediately.
- Two-Faced: Due to the nature of this roleplay, characters may or may not twist into something a bit different from their usual selves. Say, for example, you made Belarus the Virtue of Charity. In her personality, you would have to say something about her being charitable, as she is supposed to be the embodiment of charity. In converse, let's say you made Liechtenstein the Vice of Pride. Make her prideful. But don't forget to keep the cores of the characters. They may embody vices and virtues, but they are still them. As said, please do consider thinking through why your character might be able to embody a vice or virtue before you do anything. You can always exaggerate a trait a character already has. If you have read this far, what is your crowning virtue?
- Enough Said: Since we are a literate role-play our word minimum would have to be three hundred words - as in three good paragraphs. We understand that some days, it's hard to write up replies, but it is also hard to reply to a short post (or none at all).
- You are Not Almighty: There's no excuse. Even if you are a pretty powerful Angel or Demon with a cool high rank. You follow the laws of living. Because defying the laws ain't cool, man. Meta-gaming and god-modding are also included as something not to do.
- The Pieces are Limited: You are allowed four characters. The first character you app must be a Human. The second can be an Angel, Demon, Fallen Angel, or another Human. The third can be an Angel, Demon, Fallen Angel, or another Human. The fourth can be an Angel, Demon, Fallen Angel, or another Human. You aren't limited your amount of humans, but if you choose a different character type, you can only have ONE of that type. Meaning only one Angel, one Demon, or one Fallen Angel. You can also only have one special ranked Angel or Demon if you take an Angel or Demon (royalties — which will not be allowed to be apped until later, vices, and virtues). For Humans, you can have as many as you like, but only one of them could have Sight or be an Angel Slayer or Demon Hunter. So here are some examples of what you can and can't do-
- Human (with Sight), Virtue Angel, Demon, Fallen Angel
- Human (no Sight), Human (Demon Hunter), Vice Demon, Angel
- Human (no Sight), Human (no Sight), Human (Sight), Fallen Angel
You pay attention? Only four characters and you aren't overplaying things. Of course, the state of your character CAN change during the roleplay! If you have read this far, please tell me a pun.- Time Lapse: You have to wait two weeks before you can get your second character. However, the staff are an exception. You need to show that you have done a thread in the two week span with your character before we can give you another one.
- Read and Abide the Commandments: You better have done that.
