I love this set up, it has a flow to it, mostly the way the writer is speaking and how quick the rules are, and well how it is presented really. The only problem I see what-so-ever is how it is shoved in your face, for this site style that will not be good... If we end up following this style, it must and I mean must have, an extreme dark "about to be hung for piracy" feel to it.... Any suggestions? Should we follow this pattern in the link below, or follow the normal pattern most forum rpiers are used to. Also another problem, I will want the plot stuff to be in its own board [where threads are chapters], so we can't design it exactly how they did it. w11.zetaboards.com/HavenCity/topic/9163340/1/#new

I think it sounds good, try giving us a rough draft and then we can continue from there.

Remember to save, and enjoy your new profile style. The user accounts on this site will follow the " " format versus "<b>" Can change accounts by clicking
Plotting
Every rpier has their own style to create plots and getting their character moving. Three main methods are used "private Messaging", "chat box", and finally a "plotting thread". Cbox is good for instant plot making, especially if the user you plot with is always online. Private messaging is more a private version, sometimes used for those who are shy and just can't get started. A plotting thread is usually made to put your characters out there, the important thing is to reply in those threads saying you want to work with that member's characters. Posting
Creating your own Rp thread, simply follow same instructions as a bio. Only this time instead of building a character you'll need to make a scene that other characters can interact with, your best bet is to describe the area and making thread open. When replying to a thread, simply type in the box on the bottom of the page in the thread you are replying to. There is no wordcount, but quality is of great importance so try and add everything that makes your character real and allows a reply for other fellow members. If you cannot seem to find a way to plot with others or even getting started, please just post in a open thread even if it has replies, or join a site event the staff are holding. If worst comes to worst, pm a staff member and they will start a thread with you. We want all to feel welcome, so that they may enjoy the game of life. The boards on this site will follow the " " format versus "<b>"

I actually find this good, we can definitely use this as our root. I like how you just listed the rules, especially on the basics part. I'm part of a forum that has a big group and one of it's function can be used. link, this a useful thing and and an uncommon way to tell how strong the character way. I'm thinking we could actually set a race class tree. Like Human can choose from fighter, mage, tank, and cleric. From there they can level up and get to a better class at certain levels. These classes could also intersect allowing a character unhappy with their role to start moving towards a different one.

//Sorry Verin saw your post after posting this, please scroll past all the setting and plot for the reply to your post// So Here is the plot and setting, because totally did not need that before.
|
| Setting
Camelot, a once great kingdom ruled by King Arthur's granddaughters, is now forever dark under the Nightmare's Moonlight. A kingdom that depends greatly on dark magic to stay alive; has learned to make sacrifices of mind, body, and soul. These sacrifices can be virgins for successful crops, animals for premonitions, and virtues for survival. Keep in mind, the weather in this kingdom, will forever stay a moist warm cool under the moonlight sky.
Due to this never ending darkness, fauna and life, have evolved. All those with green leaves have turned black as the Moon's shadow, long forgotten to this generation's children. What now thrives are those of glowing beauty, oddities of the night. One might consider it a blessing, if not for the flesh eating unicorns roaming the night. It is all up to your imagination fellow writer of this story, just how much this world have evolved from our very own.
Towns within this kingdom are stuck in the dark medieval era with cottages, quiet life, a bliss of no knowledge. Within the Capital of Camelot there is, however, great technology advances. Advances that merely need your imagination to explore and widen. Mere examples of these advances would be a car running on magical energy, guns shooting energy bullets, laser swords made one's aurora, and even splicing animals to create inhumane creatures. These magical advances must stay within the city for the countryside's protection. If any are found to carry this technology around without a Royal License they are to be immediately interrogated.

| Prequel
A Prince Charming had Charmed the Princess of the Night, the Princess owned a great library. This library held dark secrets of the greatest magics. One night the lovely prince asked to see the library, however she at first declined. The Princess a few days later decided to get revenge at her sister, Princess of the Day, to do this she broke their vow and showed him the library.
Prince Charming soon began study and learn the secrets of the dark magic, and easily was swept away by it. By the time the Sister of the Night realized her mistake, he had killed her sister, and cursed the princess to be his lovely Queen of the Night.
Soon after the Kingdom fell, all those greatest at magic either were killed, enslaved, or forced to become an Angel. Time had passed, the world quickly learned the sun would never return, that the only way to save crops was to practice this great magic themselves. Even more time had passed, heroes had risen, but just how quickly they appeared, they had disappeared.
Upon reaching the 100 year mark the King had become a God, one of Nightmares and Darkness, few dared to oppose. Those who even had a chance to stand against him, was long forgotten, something still in the hearts of those with virtues. It is said he was slain within the realm of dreams, though many believe this to be a lie.

| Prologue
Currently in progress please check out current events and active threads.
All thread created within the first few weeks of the site's creation will in the prologue, please visit all site events relating to the prologue. Once those events get moving and/or finished, the staff members will summarize the prologue and move to Chapter 1.
|
//THIS WILL BE MADE INTO DIFFERENT EVENT THREADS// King Lucifer, one believed to be a God has fallen. Upon the king's death, his heir and replacement would be decided upon a tournament. 12 would be visited by 1 of his most loyal followers and brought to the Castle to participate in a great Tournament. Those chosen will be gifted in many talents, come from many different places, and must stay alive or be disqualified. Your character's story will start in a open prologue thread, this thread will decide your character's fate in the story path. Starting the story will require multiple paths to choose, once choosing the prologue path please continue to chapter 1. Don't worry your character is yours, what their destiny is in this fairy tale is up to you. Staff will be there to make events, plot twists, and keeping things moving smoothly. Characters are allowed to jump and combine chapters, if it makes sense, meaning your character can become a Tournament Contestant and a Future Rebel. Tournament Contestant: This prologue selection end with the character chosen to be one of the tournament participants with your permission of course. If your character is not chosen, we can always twist things, in secrecy *wink*. Those who will be choosing the tournament contestants, please choose the character based on what your character's personality would choose, not by popularity. Participants within the tournament must be chosen by one of the 4 guild general or 7 sin assassins. Once the character's prologue is finished, and they are now at the camelot's castle, please move to Chapter 1 of the site. Future Rebel: This prologue selection end with the character noticing more and more what is truly wrong about this kingdom, and that someone should stand up for freedom. It is possible for a character who is rescued by a future rebel to also become a rebel. Once the character decides to take action against another character, royalty, or simply following their heart they will be considered to be on the future rebel path.

Verin if you mean that whomever is higher level in a class wins that battle, unless tie then rp it out, or the higher level wants to lose; I am all in.

No what I was thinking of for people that want to experiment with playstyles allowing them to find their favorite spot. Sure higher classes would have a slight upper hand due to stats and skills but really they don't have much of an advantage.

They can change classes {if in their race}, just their level will end up deciding who wins any sort of battle they have unless winner/tie says otherwise. Forgive me, but I don't quite understand what you are asking/suggesting here.

Really all I'm thinking is this: Levels provide 2 things here, stat points and a chance to change your class. Really all levels are is a prerequisite along with stat points, that will allow you to unlock a class. Of course a higher level player would be stronger than a lower leveled one, but if that lower leveled one is smart enough in battle he can control the flow of the game. Another way to beat a higher leveled player is to overwhelm them. A higher level player does not always win. Like if you faced a higher leveled monster you could be cunning and follow a plan to kill it or just attack in numbers, really you get almost the same end.

By what you are saying you are getting into something that would require a full on new battle system/class to be created. The members woultd need think of their beginning stats, which more often then not usually would involve placing lots of stats on defense if tank, or magic if a druid. I would rather it be statless, that way members won't have to constantly check other characters before deciding a post action, it would simply just flow and be more fun that way.
I was thinking that the level could be a quick easy way to decide the winner [if the higher level wants to win], though it could cause butthurt and unfairness.
How about we just have a system similar to that of LoZ? With simply mana and hearts, then let the members choose how many they hearts they lose, and mana for their magic abilities.
Maybe the stats are only used in events, like direct battlefields or the tournament? Like the members joining have to decide their stats for that event, then all stats are shown only after applications have been closed?
Added: It would take work to make, but I think that it would be alright to use. Just sometimes those with stats/class, upon rping, seem to ignore them.

It's okay if you don't want to use it, I was just throwing out there as an idea.
