======================================================================Other: rp rules======================================================================There is only one RP Rule, don't metagame.Metagaming is defined as doing things other than RPing your char in order toexert undue and unfair influence over the RP environment. Metagaming can befurther broken up into the following catagories, but there are some instancesnot covered.1) No authoring NPCsIt gives people an unfair amount of RP power if they can write the RP for anynumber of NPCs. This can be anything from RPing have an NPC cast spells foryour events, to RPing having some NPC nemesis. This is permissible as longas the NPC does not play an in anyway important role.See Also: help npc exceptions2) No authoring or referencing show charactersReally a subset of 1, but much more important, for obvious reasons we can'thave half a dozen people deciding what show characters did or didn't do. Youare free to reference anything that actually happened in the show, just notthe unwritten areas.3) Do not RP any significant ability, event, or accomplishment that you do not havesome kind of real code support for.see help rp rule 34) Do not RP something as different to how it is shown in the show, for instancehealing spells being able to miraculously fix injuries etc.See Also: help evil characters5) Do not significantly involve one of your alts in the RP of another.6) Don't use reroll to bring back characters, you can apply to have old pfilesrestored, also never bring back a character who died through code, ie RKed.----------------------------------------------------------------------See Also: rp rule 3, merit
