Yukute Black Dreams: Plots and Plans

NO SEX. If you want sex, stick it in your journal with an AU tag or something. MAKE IT CLEAR that this is not serious RP and is rather the sex your characters would be having if they could be having sex.

NO KILLING. If your character is gonna die, feel absolutely free to pull a deus ex machina outta your ass and save the character. Preferred method is teleportation to another room, the more people in it the better. On the other hand, if you want your character to die, talk it over with the people you are playing with. This is mostly to combat the WTF-factor, and also to prevent you looking like an attention whore.

BE ACTIVE. We hope that you're into this game enough to play frequently, but we have a top-limit of a month of non-activity before you're out of the game. Hiatuses are, of course, the exception, but pleeeeease don't go on too many of those.

BE IC. We're all pulling characters out of someone else's canon here. That means that there are multiple interpretations of different characters; however, there are certain things that are distinctly NOT IC.

IC =/= OOC. If my character hates your character's guts, it does not mean I hate you. Likewise, if my character loves yours, it does not mean I particularly like you.

NO SECRET CABALS PLZKTHX. Keep plotting to the game. This also includes the moderators. It's not that the mods can't plan without the cast, but major decisions are set to the group to decide whether they want to participate. We rule by Tribal Council, apparently.

DRAMA IS NOT APPRECIATED. If you absolutely cannot get along with another character and it is affecting the game, talk to the moderators. Heck, you should probably talk to the mods even if it ISN'T affecting the game -- that way they can back you up later. CYA, basically.

POST LOGS. Post post post. Feel free to clean it up, too, and remember the formatting -- double-spacing between character posts. Logs aren't considered canon until they're posted, so POST.

NO GODMODING/AUTOING. You are not the other person. You are not the other person's character. Respect their write to play their character as they see fit (within reasonable bounds -- see: BE IC). If you're in a fight? Your character may punch someone, but don't talk about the black eye they got unless you've cleared it with them OOCly. Give them the opportunity to duck, dodge, parry, etc., or not.

USE YOUR JOURNAL. We're not on livejournal just because it's convienent. We use both livejournal and the MUSH interchangably, and most of us are far more used to playing on livejournal. This way you can also play together even if one of you either isn't on, or can't be on at the same time. Journals can also contain Out-of-Character information like memes and essays.
