Welcome to the board! As you are probably new, lets go over the rules of making a character. It is fairly easy to do, all you need to do is read the important threads.
Well first up the character sheet template is what we request everyone to use for their characters. If you want to use a different template ask a staff member. Why we request this is because with the same template it's easier to make sure all the correct information is put in and it also looks uniform~
Now to fill out the sheet you will see a bunch of blanks. Many of the blanks are self-explanatory, but we ask you to follow a few guidelines.
Yay! I'm accepted!
Great! We welcome new members, but just a reminder. Make sure at some point you put your face claim in the face claim list. This allows people to know which character you've chosen because it gets a bit awkward finding a person who looks exactly like you. As three other things we ask you fill out a plotter, and three trackers. Plotter. Relationship Tracker. Thread Tracker. Extra Tracker. This is just so everything stays organized and we don't have a mess. Staff will be keeping track of members trackers to make sure everything lines up, so please try to update it at least every other week.
I'm done... finally... kill me...
Well... just one more thing. We need to talk about character development! When your character develops enough, you might want to update your application. Once you are accepted your application is LOCKED. If you want to change it please contact staff and ask to change it and your reason. We will then unlock it for you to be able to update it.

Now to fill out the sheet you will see a bunch of blanks. Many of the blanks are self-explanatory, but we ask you to follow a few guidelines.
- When titling your thread please put the characters first and last name. Then after in brackets [ ] please put if you are a student, teacher, or quest character
- Make sure you read four threads before you start: Character Creation Rules. Types of Characters. Rankings. Face Claim List. These are all things you need to know before you can start.
- Personality is a must. We ask you at least do three paragraphs and three traits from each side. This helps bring your character to life and other people can decide how they want to interact with yours.
- Please just put something down under the appearance. Whether it is a picture or description it doesn't matter, but it is common to use a face claim of a person from an anime. The credits at the bottom leave space for.
- Abilities are a bit hard. To start, please read this: Power Rankings. Each new member is able to start with two level one powers, one level three, and one level four. In addition characters have the option of having a signature power, but as a reminder, we are a bit harsher on these powers. Also make sure to put your strengths and weaknesses, meaning what you are good at and what you are not. These are not for talents.
- The biography is important and not. It is requested that at least three good paragraphs are made. This shows background on your character and how they came to be. However, there are exceptions. If you don't want anyone to know about your character's background, not even OOC just talk to staff and we will discuss. Please know that this is on a case by case basis.
- On the side you will find some easy information to fill out. At the bottom it says password. You must have this password to be accepted. (Hint: read the rules)
