Character Creation Guidelines

Here are some rule and guidelines regarding character creation along with some useful tools.
== Mythical Characters ==
* A character can only be a human or some sort of yokai. Yokai.com can help you.
* Don't make all your characters mythical.
* Powers must be reasonable.
== Pets ==
* No character can have a pet in dorms or on school grounds unless it is a service animal.
* Service animals must be NPCs (see below.)
* Service animals must be reasonable animals (no service horses or service hermit crabs.)
* Service animals cannot be mythical.
== Character Abandonment ==
* If a character is unused for 2 weeks a message will be sent to the creator about whether or not they abandoned it.
* If they say didn't abandon it, they have one week to use the character.
* If they don't use it in that one week, the character will either be open for adoption (if it is well developed), made a NPC (if it is well developed but nobody takes them) or they will be deleted (if it isn't completed.)
* If they did say they abandoned it, they have 3 options.
** They can delete the character.
** They can give the character to a specific person.
** They can allow anyone to adopt the character.
** They can make the character a NPC (see below) for anyone to use.
== NPCs ==
* NPCs are character that are important to a character's development, but not enough to be made a character (a random group of friends, family, teachers, ect.)
* They can serve as plot devices and can more relevant in fanfictions and fanart.
* A NPC can be made into a character anytime.
* A NPC can only be abandoned if the creator states that they are.
== Mary Sues ==
* A Mary Sue can be many things.
** It can be an overly perfect character.
** It can be an overpowered character.
** It can be an overly angsty character.
* First use a tool called common sense to decide if you think that the character is a Sue.
* If you are unsure, take the Mary Sue Litmus Test to see if they are a Sue.
* If they are a Sue, you can edit it to take away some of the perfect traits or add some bad ones.
* Sues are not allowed on this wiki and can result in the Sue's page being deleted.
== Joke Characters ==
* A joke character is a character who is meant to be made as a well, joke.
** Parody Sues are joke characters.
