Thread: Scarlet Hell Manor [OPEN]

Re Scarlet Hell Manor Under Construction Thread Specific Rules 1. IMPORTANT Follow the Site??s TOS 2. AESTHETICS Create your posts in a pleasing manner. 3. LITERACY Use your knowledge or a knowledgeable resource to construct posts with minimal grammarspelling mistakes. 4. CONFLICT Accurately depict any and all conflicts. Use logic to give the illusion of realism. 5. PLAY Only control your character??s actions, thoughts and emotions. Recognize that other??s have different play styles. Posts must be at least 2 sentences and should vary in length depending on interaction. Writing 5-9 paragraphs slows down interaction so be mindful of your partners?? rather than your ego. As this is an interactive open RP your character comes and goes as you do. If you must depart, so must your character. UPDATED If Ducky or I do not like how you are playing your character. For example, you're stupid. We will kill you in the role-play and then remove your profile. We alone are allowed to be gods in this way, and only in this way. -- BunnyDucky IMMORTAL Law-- 0 This RP is based on 5 years of development. In other words, you will create your characters based on OUR outlines. To begin with the Vampire nation is broken down into Ancients, Elders, Vampires, and Fledglings. Ancients are the eldest Fledgling??s the youngest, or newest of the Immortals. All Vampires are weak to sun. You go out in daylight, you DIE. If you are stabbed with a stake or decapitated-- YOU DIE. If your arm is cut of, you are DEEPLY wounded and will most likely DIE unless you escape and feedslumber for a couple of years. You CAN NOT read minds. But, merely sensesmell emotions--such as fear. If you have a question on what is permitted, PM Ducky or Bunny Most vampires are part of a council hierarchy. The Council places social laws upon a vampire. Including but not limited to social interaction with Mortals. Those traveling to a Haven are usually wanders. Wandering Vampires are both hunted by Slayers, and the Council. The council has a wanted list of the most dangerous Elders and Ancients, but usually are not part of our open RP unless for background or extra conflict. 0 In regards to Werewolves, you are often still slaves to Vampires, or at least deeply loyal. You have no laws or restrictions. Our creation of werewolves is based on Beauty rather than horror. The actual transformation simply is a large wolf, eternal and beautiful. Depending on a Wolf??s age the transformation can take place on command, but can be rather painful to new pups. Wolves in human form do have more strength than Vampires, and they have the advantage of being able to travel and hunt during any time. Their senses are more acute. Their hearing and their smell is likely better than any Ancient Vampire. Unfortunately, Werewolves do not heal as quickly as Vamps and still suffer from ??mortal?? wounds. They are allergic to silver and are subject to blood loss effects unlike a Vampire. IMPORTANT NOTE FROM DUCKY ??Okay kids, here??s what I have to say about characters, if you're going to make one, make sure you're proud of it. Do you really have to do what all your friends are doing and make a clichd, pathetically stereotypical character that has nothing substantial to it? Come on now, not everyone is orphaned or abused or raped as a child. Not everyone can be the strong, silent type, always angst and brooding. In the human race, there is variety. Happy people, bitter people, morbidly depressed people, and yes, the strong, silent type. But how often do you meet a person more inclined to brooding than laughing? And more importantly, if you're going to make a broody son of a bish, then god damn it, make them brood! Not fall in love and be all innerly squishy. That's just so infuriating, you have no idea. I know, sometimes it's hard to start out an emotionless character and keep them that way, slowly mannerisms of a REAL person will start to shine through, and that's okay, we understand. But then maybe that should tell you something. You know, something like, DON'T DO IT! You can't handle brooding, emotionless bastards, so avoid them. Personally, I think the most important thing when you create a personality is to keep it consistent. If your character is a sweetheart, always mothering everyone, then perhaps you should stick with that, instead of having them be sweet but constantly plotting on how to kill everyone. Unless that's what your going for, but then, your character isn't really a sweetheart, it's a two faced diabolical individual, you see? And by consistency I'm not implying that there should never be any variations. I would hope that if the best friend of your character died, your character would mourn or feel an avenging wrath rather than stay all bouncy and happy. Get it? God I hope so. But also, make sure you're actually interacting with other characters, instead of acting AT them. Carry a conversation once in a while, and yes, that means you actually have to read what other people say. And if someone trips you, then you fall on your face. And by all means, make it an elaborate fall filled with emotional responses. Nothing is more boring than a dry character without any emotional implications. All action and no feeling makes you a damned robot, and unless you're character was factory made, I don't think that's really the impression you want to give. So use the eyes, the hands, the face, the body language of your character and get the feeling across. If you find that you have to state a mood more than once a year, then learn how to role play, kill off the old character, and start from scratch. Everyone around you will much appreciate the absence. Trust me, I know I would.?
