I know how much EVERYONE loves these! xd

1. BE NICE.

2. No god-modling, power-playing, etc. Need an explanation of these fundamental rules of RPing?

Note: I've seen my definitions of god-modling and power-playing switched. Don't bug me about it. This is the way I learned it.

RP Do Nots

God-Moding:

One of the most hated acts of n00b RPing. This is when you take control of, or affect another person's character, without their permission or consent. For example, just pretend that there is a god-modling n00b named Joe, who is RPing with Sue. (Forgive me if you are named Joe or Sue). Joe is using his dragon charrie, and Sue is a gallant paladin. Well, here is Joe's post: "The dragon slashed at the paladin, and ripped away her shoulder down to the bone." Now that is god-modling. Sue most likely does not want her paladin so easily ripped to shreds. What Joe should've written is this: "The dragon slashed at the paladin." That way, it is up to Sue to decide whether her shoulder is ripped open, or whether she evades the attack entirely.

Power-Playing:

Another definite no no. This is basically when your character is pretty much almighty and invincible. No matter how awesome it would be to have a sword plunged through your heart and still not die or feel pain, it makes the RP utterly boring.

The Despie:

Everyone hates despies. These are the people whose charries are perfect in every way, usually pretty princesses with sparkling blue eyes and long, flowing golden hair who will walk up to other people's charries and kiss them randomly, or something stupid like that. Despies annoy me, and every other sensible RPer, to no end.

3. Keep the RP in a medieval/fantasy setting. I don't want people pulling out guns or laser beams, okay?

4. NO FAIRIES. I hate fairies... any other species of charrie is acceptable.

5. NO CHATSPEAK. Ex: "She said, "y r u here mr i just 8 a deer"

6. Be at least semi-literate, please. >_> That means using quotations, and all other punctutation. domokun At least attempt to spell things right, too, though I know that no one is the dictionary.

7. No editing of posts, unless fixing typos or something. Don't majorly change your post so that others are lost.

8. Sorry, no pets from other shops are allowed in the RP. A wyrm is more likely to eat them. xd

9. This is NOT a chat room. If you have questions about the shop, or just want to hang out, post in the thread. This is strictly an RP forum.

10. You will luff on Lord Blues Raven (aka organimizer), who actually paid for this guild, and axhead55, who makes me maps. =O heart


I will add rules as I see fit. stare

I do believe she means you may RP as any race, as well as your wyrms.


Well, minus fairies.

I have flyswatters in case THEY show up... *dons hunting cap, grabs a flyswatter, and goes fae hunting*

-Croc Hunter voice- This creature is the despie, the most vile creature ever to grace any planet. Examine how I handle it. Please don't try this at home, as they are prone to attack if not terminated quickly. Now, observe. -tackles despie, pinning it to the ground- -shoots in the head- 'Nd that is how it's supposed to be done. -wipes hands on shirt-

Beware though, cause I might get mad if you put too much "drama" and "power" and "awe" into your humaniod char. Humaniod creatures tick me off in the middle of a creature rp. They're just so..so...Mary Sueish. Especially ELVES.

Well, I find that strictly creature RPs get very very dull, very very quickly. O_o That's why I try to incorporate humans in, so you have more room to work in. 3nodding

Of course, if one insists, you MAY only play a dragon, it's excuse being that it hasn't found a person worthy to be bonded to, as of yet. ^_^

Well, that's okay I guess, unless it's a "I am an elf. I am so much older and wiser than you. Look, I am so powerful I could destroy the earth" kind elf....

**glomps char** Just like Raistlin from DragonLance!!! whee
