-Write in third person! Always write in third person and in past tense while role-playing.


-You have no idea what the other character is thinking about. You probably know something important or what the other character is thinking in his/her mind, but you don't. So you cannot give them that information. Your character will have to discover it.

-No Powerplay! Powerplay is when a character does something and assumes something is happened that they can't decide.

-Topic are mainly added by moderators but your are allowed to make one after approval.

-If you write off-character in an off-role-play-topic, you must do so in double-parenthesis.

-You can have any number of characters but if you have more than two characters of the same gender, at least another two will have to be of the opposite gender.



KINDS OF POWER-PLAY:

1.Deciding others actions
This means that deciding another character's reaction is powerplay. It is up to the person behind the other character to decide how their character reacts.

2. Invincibility
It is not fun for anyone to play against a character who is invincible. It ruins the game. So remember that, even though it is up to you whether or not your character get into trouble, he/she will have to loose at least once to give it some climax. If any doubt, the moderators will decide.

3. Showing up randomly and prevent something that your character actually don't know anything about.
This means that you're character has to be at the place where an action that is to be prevented before it takes place, unless the people who writes it gives a reason for you're character to suddenly be there.
(Example: The screaming in the library.)

We know that all of you can see what happens in a topic, but your character can't. A character can't suddenly pop up as if it had seen it coming.

4.Run in, fight and run out
As the title says: You can't run into a fight or topic and speak or argue and then run away. You have to stay, as this gives the other person time to react. Running away before they have time to react robs them of the freedom to cast a spell back and deprives them from their rights of reacting at you.

5.Generally everything that prevents other characters' to play their game
By this we mean that others aren't allowed to choose for themselves what happens to others characters' and what others characters' should think and/or do. An example of this can be when you write that everybody loves your character. This robs everybody else the possibility of choosing for themselves what their character should think about your character.

Finally,whenever there is power-play,the moderators will decide.
