General
↠ [ Treat members and admins with respect, that means no harmful words and absolutely no slurs. Just be nice to each other and keep vulgar language to an appropriate amount. ]
↠ [ This roleplay is rated PG-16, so please keep this in mind if you consider joining as our roleplay will discuss mature themes. ]
↠ [ Do not mini-mod, admins have this job for a reason, meaning they reward players and punish offenders. If you have a problem you would like to discuss, please contact a staff member with your concern over a topic. Evidence is crucial, therefore if you attempt to accuse someone of rule-breaking or harmful play without evidence, you’re compliant might not be classified. ]
↠ [ Do not spam the roleplay. This means any affiliation requests, questions concerning the group, or absence notices should be in their respective boards. ]
↠ [ You are allowed to have as many characters as you can handle. if you need to drop a character, please notify us so we can scrap the application. ]
↠ [ Rape, incest, and pedophilic themes will not be tolerated in or out of character. If we find you guilty of breaking this rule, it will result in suspension of you and your character until we admins decided on the severity of your punishment. ]
↠ [ Please inform us, via absences board, if you will be taking a hiatus, so we can freeze your character. ]
↠ [ Activity checks are 4 times a year, usually in the seasons. To check your activity please post in the activity check thread within the week and half it will be up. ]
↠ [ Please make a sub-account for every new character, but be sure to apply for that character on your main account which you will use for ooc purposes. ]
Role Play
↠ [ You and any other roleplay partner must be comfortable with role playing mature themes such death, gore, or sexual encounters. ]
↠ [ This group is a literate roleplaying community, we require 100 words per post. ]
↠ [ No godmodding. Even if they are technically super soldiers, everyone has their weaknesses. ]
↠ [ Be aware of the difference of in character and out of character. If someone’s character insults your characters or is unintentionally rude to them, does not mean they are being rude to you as a person. ]
Character
↠ [ Any characters you make can be any rank except for ambassador. Ambassador ranks are held only by canon characters. ]
↠ [ No repeat characters or children of the characters in the game. By repeats I mean, no cyborg ninjas or super smart gorillas. ]
↠ [ Keep talking/soldier animals to an absolute minimum. More leniency towards omnics/androids, but they are still largely discriminated in the world, so keep their numbers low. ]
↠ [ The youngest your character can be is 18 and the oldest is 80. ]
↠ [ Characters can have any sorts of odd weapons as long as you explain how your character obtained them. ]
↠ [ This is not a super hero/super power group, do not make your characters have extraordinary abilities without a specific scientific reason. Things like having wings for no reason will not be allowed, but having characters that have an electro-magnetic field due to scientific experiments will be allowed. ]
↠ [ No Mary or Gary Sues. Balance your character with at least 2 positive, 2 neutral, and 2 negative traits. Considering, don't make your character Mr or Mrs Darkness; stray away from using sadistic or evil as negative traits without a motivation. ]
↠ [ Keep histories at an appropriate drama level. No ‘killed parents when they were five’ or ‘parents tried to drown them in a river when they were young’. ]
↠ [ Clothing should be practical for soldiers and fighters, no long dresses or just bikini tops. ]
↠ [ Any major disabilities such as missing limb, blindness, or deafness need to be described in role play and in history about how they acquired the disability or have lived with it. ]
↠ [ Characters cannot be descendants from any previous Overwatch member. ]
