Character Rules
Everyone is Different 02/2017
Everyone's character will be different, and that's the best part, however, there are plenty of things that need to remain true to the board, and that's just how it is. Like my main rules, I'm not going to go into detail about anything really, but I'll still outline the basics for you.
This is a school rp. I expect most characters to be between the ages of 13-19. Of course teachers, staff, and alumni will be older. No teacher younger than the age of 23 please, but you can make a teacher as old as like.. 85 for all I care. As far as ages go, First Year students are between 13-15, Second years are 14-16, Third Years are 15-17, and Fourth Years are 16-19. Of course I can be lenient with this if they were held back a year or skipped a few grades. Just make sure to let me know what their deal is.
Second. Yes, there are powers. I do have a list, or 5. Stick to the lists. Do some research, put a bit of effort into it. Know exactly what it is you're signing up for. You will only get two powers to start. As you progress and stick around, you will be able to level up, perhaps eventually get new powers. I reserve the right to do my own research on your powers and reject them if I feel like they are too overpowered. Also, powers develop around puberty. They're not exactly genetic, so your parents could have them, or they might not, that choice is up to you. If there is a power that is not on the lists that you would like included, there's a place for that. Just fill out the form and let an admin know, Do NOT put it in your app without filling out the form or you will be automatically rejected.
Third. Please fucking gods make humans. Yes. There is shapeshifting. But it must be one of your powers. If you have feathers or can turn into a unicorn for no reason without shapeshifting. Too bad, rejected. Humans. Everyone is a human, basically. If too many shapeshifters live in the population, I will put a ban on them, I have before, and I reserve the right to do so again.
Next, and this one is important. Everyone's character must have some sort of deep dark secret in their history somewhere. Or at least, dark to them. Maybe they beat a sibling, maybe they killed someone, maybe they do drugs, or are addicted to something strange. Or maybe they're a complete pervert. Who knows. Just something. It has to be there. No exceptions.
Last. If you have a very minor character, make them an npc.
And that's.... pretty much it. If you have any questions, or feel nervous about your character in any way, ask about it.
