and here's our set of rules && regulations *
[/font][/size]
[ and so the story begins. ] For as long as anyone can remember, the proof of supernatural beings or unexplainable phenomenons have walked in secrecy among our world. Whether it be suspicions of vampiric entities, the horror of chaotic hunger roaming around in the form of a wolf, or even the paranoia of ignorant mortals opening doors that they're most certainly not capable of closing...it's all been here in front of our very eyes. Too long have we allowed arrogance to keep us from believing something with so much unidentified power could possibly lurk behind unexplored shadows. We all could've had the chance to adapt, to reason with these creatures, and learn how to coexist within the world we share. But, you probably can already tell that this is a legend that will never end happily.
For as long as anyone can remember, this place that remains undetected by the rest of the world was once not divided into two individual lands. There is proof of serenity -- even though it might've been in it's most bizarre form -- and all creatures had a specific part to play. This place that no longer exists was called Fall Arbor; and order was something that the citizens welcomed with every sunrise.qi
[ . ] Literacy, please? We understand if you might be on a lower level of descriptive writing or something -- after all, we're not roleplaying nazi soldiers that enforce absolute perfection -- but effort is a very big factor here. We ask for you to try and form complete sentences and punctuate correctly. I mean, wouldn't you get frustrated if you typed up something marvelously in depth and inspiring...and the other person gave you a few measly sentences that, more or less, terribly sucked? We do not judge based on your skills, we welcome anyone working on improving them, but not giving a damn and just throwing something together is something we will not tolerate. Show that you're interested and not just trying to kill the time like a casual Tuesday, hm?
[ three. ] When it comes to the characters, we ask that you stick to a few things. Firstly, try not to make mary or gary-sues. We like flaws -- in fact, a lot of your characters are fueled by the imperfections that society notices they possess -- so no perfect characters. Also be sure to keep the gender ratios even, as well as the species ratio, alright? We can't have a thousand human girls and only two or three male vampires && werewolves...right? Right. Try not to use anime pictures for your characters. It's nothing personal, we just would prefer that you didn't. Think you can handle that?
[ four. ] We don't really have any limitations inside of the roleplay. Vulgarity, lust, violence...everything is a go here at Lethal Attractions. Now, that doesn't mean you should have your characters running around dropping the f-bomb every five minutes while they penetrate anything that walks. We're going to leave it up to you when it comes to being reasonable, alright? I think that seems fair enough.
[ five. ] We're going to have member sweeps, so obviously, this means you need to be active. We get that you have a life, but don't just randomly disappear for insane amounts of time and expect to still be registered in our member list. A successful forum must be an active one.
