Do the rules seem fair?
  Yeah, it's all fine. I won't break any.
  There's one or two I have a problem with... I'll PM you about it.

The Rules

1.) Godmodding! D<
Christ, this gets annoying. If you're joining, odds are you won't do it. However, I still see people try to auto-hit and auto-dodge all the time, and quite frankly, it's stupid, and it's immature. Stop being such a little wuss - you win some and you lose some.

2.) Descriptions, Descriptions...
"Bob travelled across Hyrule Field. He got to Boulder Town."
... Is that it? That's all you have? You travelled across a vast sea of grass, weeds, and monsters, and that's all you can muster to post? Try to get at least a good sized paragraph for each post. I don't expect much, especially when you've got a bad case of Writer's Block, but come on. What did you smell, what did you see? Did you encounter anything? Make it interesting for us to read.

3.) Perfect Characters, anyone?
This rule is known by many as "No Mary-Sue's or Gary-Sue's." Basically, don't make your character like some kind of omnipotent, all-powerful awesome dude like you see in the movies. He doesn't know everything, he hasn't been everywhere, and he can't do everything. When you're posting, think of it this way... Is it what you'd see out of a badass character in a movie? If your character displays this, then stop immediately. He can't do twelve consecutive backflips through the air while conjugating verbs in Spanish and getting all the chicks at the same time. Really. It's immature and it just shows us all the person you wish you were.

4.) Wtf h4x?!
Don't make 100 Rupees appear out of nowhere just so you can buy that horse you've been dreaming of. If you want me to give you some kind of quest or something that you want to do to earn that 100 Rupees, I'll gladly do it for you. But items and Rupees don't grow on trees. They grow inside grasses and appear from monsters. Get it right...

5.) Please, spell your words correctly...
This should speak for itself, but I'm going to rant in a giant paragraph about it anyway. If you don't know how it is spelled, look it up. I'm not going to be an a** hole about it, I'm just saying I'll secretly laugh about you behind your back with my friends if you spell something like "cake" wrong.

6.) You're not a murderer, are you?
As much as you want to kill that guy for taking your treasure in the Forest Temple, I'm sorry, but you can't murder another character. That would count as godmodding, and I can't allow that. If the guy playing the character wants to quit anyway, and doesn't care if his character gets killed, he'll ask you or me to do it. Then and ONLY then should you kill anothe character.

7.) I'm God, Jesus, Buddha, whatever you worship.
I can do whatever I want in this guild, in or out of character. If I wanted to give someone's character free Rupees, I can. If I wanted to kill off a character, I can. If I wanted to make your item break, I can. Don't argue with me. But don't worry, though, I'm only an a** hole to terrible and mediocre roleplayers.

8.) The T.O.S. should be rule #1, but I'm making it #8.
Follow Gaia TOS. Maybe you should read through it quick - Because if you're anything like me, you know you probably didn't. It's pretty easy to follow this rule, though. Don't do anything that would piss off GaiaOnline Inc., like do something that would take away their way of robbing you blind of your parent's hard-earned cash.

9.) Dungeons don't take five minutes to complete.
Yeah, we know. You want that Longshot, and you want it NOW. However, in this roleplay, you have to go through the damned dungeon to get it first. Rest assured, whenever you do something big, like defeat a dungeon boss or rescue a princess, you'll be given something nice in return. I'll make sure of it.

10.) You can't get the Master Sword. You aren't cool enough.
This rule states that you can't get any 'legendary' weapons. I made one exception once, and I can almost guarantee I won't do it again. You can get plenty of other cool weapons and items, like a Gilded Sword, a Hero's Shield, a Hookshot, a Longbow... If you take a look at the Encyclopedia, it's obvious you have a lot to choose from. Don't rely on the Four Sword, either - It's for pansies, anyway.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you're just joining the guild, obviously you'll have a few questions. This guide is here to answer them - any other good questions asked by users will be put here, as well.

Q: What? Stats? I thought this was a roleplay, not Dungeons and Dragons...
A: Eh, the "stats" in your profile aren't really stats, per se. In reality, they're just reference points to show your character's abilities. It'll show me how strong or weak your character is in certain areas. Numbers won't be used in the roleplay, and I hate battle systems, so you're free there.

Q: I don't know what weapon to start out with!
A: You don't? Well, you can't start out with a demon sword or some stupid crap like that... If you want to see a list of the items you can start out with, then go to the Encyclopedia Thread right next to this one. All of the underlined weapons are the ones you can start out with.

Q: Can I have the Four Sword?
A: No, you dimrod. Didn't you read the rules?

Q: How about this - Can I have a Demonic Sword from ancient times that allows me to turn into this awesome fox demon when I get angry?
A: Uhh... No, once again. Sorry. Just stick to the normal weapons that don't have special powers, huh?

Q: Can I turn into an animal, like Link does in Twilight Princess?
A: You know, I mmight just this one happen. You can't start out like this, but maybe we can find a way for you to change your form if you're a good roleplayer and I trust you won't be a n00b with it.

Q: Where can I find Empty Bottles?
A: You can find Empty Bottles by doing all sorts of things - quests, going to the local dump and searching around, and maybe even just buying one.
