Making Your Character.
First off You'll need to go Here
Please look at the list there. Pick a character that isn't taken.
Please do not try to make a made up yet. They will not be accepted, were filling cannons first.
Next!
Copy the content in the box labeled CODE.
Then go HERE
If that link does not work for you, then go to the CHARACTERS board.
And click New Thread.
Paste the Biography layout onto the Large white box that says MESSAGE out to the side. Type your characters name into the small rectangular box that says SUBJECT out to its side.
This is what you should get.
IF THIS IS IN ANYWAY CONFUSING PLEASE PM ME!
Please follow all rules for your bio. The rules can be found here.
ROLEPLAYING
When you are roleplaying please be sure to follow the rules. Here are a few examples of what to do and what not to do.
Not to Do
Examples of PP (powerplay)/GM (godmodeling)/ and shortness, and simple bad roleplay.
I will use Rosalie(My character) as example and Edward as subject of PP and GM.
Definitions
Powerplay: Roleplaying someone else's character.
Godmodeling:
Examples
Powerplay
Rosalie looked at Edward, who turned and looked at her. She smiled softly at her brother who said "Hello Rose".
Godmodeling with a Made up
Lily looked at herself in the mirror. "Damn I'm sexy, nobody looks as good as me" she said touching her perfectly shaped face, letting her fingers trace her perfect nose and perfectly shaped eyes. Her whole body was perfect and symetrical.She had perfectly styled hair, perfectly done nails, and perfectly designed cloths
Shortness with Rosalie
Rosalie smiled and blinked "hi"
Simply Bad Roleplay
ros@l!3 smiled and sayd h!. to 3mm3tt and sayd bby i lurvs u ur my men & me 1 tru wuv.
(Believe it or not that was really hard to do haha)
Navigating Yourself Around and finding what you need
First thing is first, DO NOT be afraid to pm someone and ask for help.
If you dont know how to pm let me help you real quick.
You know the picture at the very top of the screen?
Yes.
Underneath it says
Hello *insert your name*! You have *#* new messages.
Click the number of messages love.
It's pretty much like e-mailing from there, but you need to know someone's username in order to send something to them. You can't just type in their character name. You can find it out by clicking on their name anywhere on the site (except on the c-box). Once you get to 'their profile', beside their display picture, you can see (example)
View Profile: Alice Cullen (username: admin)
Second If your a vampire you'll mostly roleplay in The Cullen's Coven, or perhaps the school. So it should be easy enough, and if you don't know which thread your to post in, ask someone, don't be embarrassed.
If your human you'll probably stay in Forks.So that should be easy enough too.
A Quileute will be in the reservation most of the time dears.
The Rules and PLOT and other information is in the first board on the home page it says Info Please Read First
