RubyRose

Ace Character - Final 4
Rules


Basic rules


All general site rules apply.


No god-modding.


Try to be active. If you know you're going to be inactive for a while, let us know!


Respect the NPC's made by other players! Don't have them act out of character!


No Mary Sues or overpowered characters.Make it realistic!


Tag people you're interacting with at the end of your post.


Don't mess with the plot. Run your ideas with the GM first!


Romance is encouraged, but fade to black before you go too far.


Character creation guidelines


Make only one character!Until stated otherwise, we’re going to keep the character count low. To make things easier to handle at the startup.


No über powers!This setting is far more realistic than those of DC or Marvel for example. Super powers are never as powerful as those shown by Superman or Silver Surfer. In fact, most super powers are quite weak or even seemingly useless. Only rare individuals (which our characters of course are allowed to be) have potent abilities to become good super heroes by relying on their ability alone.


Super powers are flawed!Any power comes with a flaw that balances the power. In some cases it’s a weakness to a certain element, and sometimes it might be that the power itself is harmful to the user when it is active. Sometimes a flaw doesn’t have to be bound to the power itself. The rule is; don’t make a Mary Sue (Surprised?). Your way to actively work around the flaws in order to utilize your powers are what makes things truly interesting!


Villains and heroes are both allowed!Any alignment is fine. Just remember that the majority of supes are more or less ordinary people that stay under the radar and use their powers for their own goals and desires rather than having grand schemes of world peace/domination.


Costumes are mostly commercial!Just because you are a supe doesn’t mean you wear spandex and capes. However, commercial and publicly known super heroes do so because that’s what sells and gains attention. Even if you’re not playing a public supe, you may of course have a costume that help your character to stay anonymous, or for other practical reasons (armour and so on). Or simply just because it is sort of cool!


Code names are for everyone!Most supes, commercial or not, tend to have or be given code names. This goes along with the fact that most supes try to separate their normal identities from their super human alter egos.
