Here at the guild we like to maintain a high level of RP skill and have some fun at the same time. as for right now the guild has slowed to a halt. the only posts in the Role play section is from back in jan this year.

also I would like you all to know who the mods are:

Kranna, Vizierre aka (Monchoon), Jamin, IkumiAngel, Dragon Queen Kimiko, Lanthanos

Kranna is the guilds founder

what do the Mods do?

well we make sure everything runs smoothly and also check on people to make sure they are posting as often as we would like them to post. we love active members. and as a matter of fact I reward active members with art of there RP char at no cost to them. (starting now. check out the art forum for sampels)

we also can aprove or deny anyone for anyreason though we do not descrimanate. if you do not stay active in the guild you will be sent a PM by some one on Mod team. should you fail to respond to the pm by a month you will be droped for the guild and your spot will be given to someone else. should you come back and are still intrested you can resubmit your char to the guild. (should you need to go away for a while just post in the OOC chat that you'll be inactive for a while and we will make sure your spot is locked.

we also have the power to delet posts. though we dont use this very often. I belive I've only had to do this one time.

well its finaly here. this is my little do's and don'ts of Rping that I've learned from being in this guild.

lets start with the basics. enteracting with others

make sure you do not quote the other person when you RP. it can lead to huge quote towers and that isn't fun to look at. make sure you respond by clicking the Reply button at the top or bottom of the forum. make sure you make it clear who your talking to etc.

also refer to your self in third person when makeing an action like attacking. but when your talking refer to yourself in first person.

when in battle post an action and let the other person respond to it.



we also do not take well to God moders. we try to give everyone a chance should you happen to God mode.. after that you'll be banned. with that in mind try to take into effect some simple rules of gravity, strength, stamina, and speed. also take into account the abilitys your shard gives you to bend some of thies rules.

also when it comes to your weapons and gear ie armor. we dont mind magical weapons etc. as long as you run them by myself or Kranna first. blessed, enchanted or magical gear can give you an edge over the Demons but you'll have to make sure there is balance in there so your not UBER. lol. ok moveing on.

Also keep in mind our chars arn't "all-seeing". if your lets say in the mountains and one of the people your character has started to like gets attacked by Demons in lets say the forest. your not going to be able to sense that and come save them. unless you or your friend has the power to contact people mentaly. Demons have the natural ability to sense where shardholders are. they may not be able to pin point your location inside an area but they know your there. think of it like a cat and mouse game.

make sure you take into account all the things that has happend to your char when RPing. some things may scar you forever (your charater not you lol) and leave you with something you've never had befor. one character gained the ability to read what people where thinking after haveing her mind twisted by a Demon. The encounter changed her forever and brought (without her knowing) about the fall of one of the Elementalists greatest fighters.

its that kind of dynamic we try to keep in mind when RPing. The story our charaters are in is greater and bigger than the characters themselves. Somethimes what affects only one charater will end up affecting all of them.

well thank you for reading this I hope this has helped you as its helped me over the years. if I left anything out feel free to PM me and I'll make sure I add it in.
for more helpful info also check out the Rules and FAQ sticky mrgreen
