Skarlet Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 [spoiler=plot] All of your life you've been normal, you've only lived with one parent, but you've been pretty much normal, although, not a lot of bad things seem to happen to you, why do you think that is? It's because really, you've always had both of your parrents. The one you never saw was your mortal parent's guardian angel, and they're watching over thier child now too. One day, something strange happens... Wings burst from your back. Or you suddenly stop breathing, but you're fine. Maybe you heal with supernatural speed, or you turn invisible. But no matter what happened, you were then visited by your angelic parent, who explained to you 'what' you were and who told you you would be attending Eden high, a school in a modern day Garden of Eden where 'Halfbloods' like yourselves would learn from 'true angels' to control your powers. Now, you've arrived. you woke up here, in a large bed, in paradise. Welcome to Eden High. [/spoiler] [Spoiler=rules] [quote=Rinne] GOD-MODING, META-GAMING, AND POWER-PLAYING These are three things that every RPer should avoid, for not only the flow of the RP but also to respect any other RPers in the thread. It’s a must to make sure you don’t do these. God-Moding – This means giving you and your character invulnerability and not giving the other players fair chance over the course of battle. Instances of god-moding include dodging every attack, using an attack that never misses no matter what, giving yourself an unplanned power up halfway through a battle, not properly responding to an attack’s strength, etcetera etcetera etcetera. Just don’t do this; it’s rude and unfair. Meta-Gaming – This means using information that your character would have no way of knowing in character. For example, if Alice’s father recently died and hasn’t told anyone about it or let information slip, then Bob, who she just met on the street, isn’t going to console her about the loss of her father. Why? He would have no way of physically knowing. Doing this is disrespectful to a character’s intentions and plotting. Power-Playing – Probably the worst of them, this means taking control over another character or their actions. Like in the previous example, if Alice is going to throw a tomato at Bob, your post with her shouldn’t involve her throwing it and watching it splatter over Bob’s face, because that’s taking away Bob’s controller’s opportunity to dodge it. A better alternative is to have the tomato leave her hand and fly toward Bob, but not mention hitting him. BRIBERY RP hosts may not advertise their RPs by means of bribery. This includes paying reputations, points, or other things to RPers for joining their RPs. Signatures, however, may be used to advertise your RP instead. ADVANCED CLAUSE If you’re new to the YCM RPing forums, you might hear this term being thrown around a lot. The history behind the Basic vs. Advanced War is too long to go into now, but at heart, the Advanced Clause is a simple set of RP rules and guidelines that every RP is supposed to have to improve the overall quality. It’s three simple rules, really, and they aren’t very hard to follow. I will check every new RP OOC thread for mention of these. If you don’t have them, you will be given a grace period of 24 hours to add them. After that, the threads for that RP will be locked. (Heck, you can just copy-paste the part below if you are so inclined.) Minimum Post Length – Each standard IC post should have the equivalent of at least 4 lines of text. However, a good post should have around one to two paragraphs with proper English spelling and grammar, and should have enough material for other RPers to expand and elaborate on in their own posts. (As a rule of thumb, 4 unbroken lines of text on YCM at standard size and font is roughly 100 words.) Dialogue – Dialogue should be done in one of two ways; in quotation marks or in speech lines. Script format is prohibited, because it doesn’t allow as much description and is dull overall. Expies – Copy-paste characters from either separate RPs or from already existing franchises, with only minor detail changes, are frowned upon. This doesn’t allow true “evolution” as a unique character.[/quote][/spoiler] [spoiler=character app] Name: Age: Gender: Appearance: Personality: Sexual orientation: [it's relevent, this is, after all, a romance-based RP] Power: [see the "Powers" spoiler] Biography: [/spoiler] [spoiler=powers] Okay, so, you're part Angel, and you were lucky enough to pick up [b]One[/b] Angelic power. Now, it could be something on the list, but if it's not that's okay, it just needs to be explained in detail. [b]Flight[/b] The ability to grow feathery wings from your back, and use them to fly. You can cause these wings to retract at your option. Flight is not indefinate and typically half-angels have a lot of trouble sustaining flight for extended periods of time. [b]Invisibility[/b] The ability to turn invisible. Like flight it can only be sustained for a limited period of time, invisibility can be over-come by the super-senses power. [b]Super-senses[/b] This power involves heightening your hearing, sight, or other senses to a super-human level. when effecting your eyes it allows you to see invisible creatures. [b]Telepathy[/b] The ability establish mental contact with other creatures, this requires a great deal of concentration when used for things such as mind reading, however it can be used to easily send messages to another creature or to allow them to send things to you. Mind reading is too stressful to use in combat situations and requires constant eye contact. [b]Regeneration[/b] You have golden blood, and you heal with a supernatural speed. Regeneration allows broken bones to heal within a few minutes of inactivity, but can not be used to regrow removed limbs. continued iritation to the area prevents fast-healing. [b]Light creation and manipulation[/b] The ability to shed light from your body and to move light, centering it away from it's source. Once you have truely mastered this power, you can create solid objects from light. [/spoiler] [i]Note: Yes there are Christian themes here. No, don't be afraid to play homosexual characters or to commit other 'sins' this RP's not about condemnation.[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catterjune Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 [center][spoiler][img]http://imgur.com/fVFpb.png[/img][/spoiler][/center] Name: Angeline Abban Age: 16 Gender: Female Appearance: Mid back-length black hair. Dark black eyes. She doesn't particular care to dress fancy, and since she had 7 or 8 school uniforms, she decided to mostly pack those instead of casual clothes. Personality: A rather, unimpressive, bland young lady. Her speciality is that she specializes in nothing. She finds herself easily distracted from the fantastical Eden around her for more mundane things. She has a bit of a sarcastic streak, along with a bad streak of laziness. She is very, very difficult to offend, particularly because she cares so little about most things. Sexual orientation: Straight as an arrow Power: Regeneration. Biography: Angeline was born to a typical, unassuming middle class single father... somehow. She never really questioned why her dad got custody, or where her mom was or anything of the sort, and he never bothered to come up with a convincing argument. Her regular doctor, or as she'd later find out, a fellow half-angel, never mentioned that recovering quick from ghastly injuries was a peculiar, non-human trait. And Angeline, having no reason to question it, decided to believe her. Gas tanks explode at the slightest provocation in the movies, despite not doing so in real life, so logically the whole "humans bleeding profusely and losing internal organs and dying when stabbed" was also played mostly for drama. One day, while leaving a movie with her friends a hit and run driver crashed into our heroine. Granted, her friends were in shock, sobbing, panicking, but she assured them she wa absolutely fine, despite the blood pouring every which way, the mangled arms and legs, and the cuts all over her exposed arms, legs, and face. Before the ambulance got there, she was completely fine, good as new. Baffled, the EMTs couldn't figure out what happened with her, and neither could her friends. One minute she was a mangled mess, blood everywhere, and then she was perfectly fine. Eventually, her father explained to her and her friends what had happened. Her typical doctor corroborated, and soon her biological mother herself appeared to quell any doubt in her mind. Angeline was confused, but decided to just go with the flow. She accepted the invitation to Eden High and now... here she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkAngel787 Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 Name: Selene Hawthorne. Age: 17 Gender: Female Appearance: She has black long hair and green eyes which sparkle, whether in sunlight or moonlight. She has a tall lanky frame with slender fingers, making her agile in small things. She is a fast runner because of her long legs. Personality: She is usually bubblyand friendly and nice, but she approaches with caution if you don't know her. She is quick to make enemies, though, so don't misstep around her. If you ARE her enemy, WATCH OUT! She has a sharp retort for all insults flung carelessly at her, and she also took fighting classes when she was little, just for her protection. So beware... Sexual orientation: [it's relevent, this is, after all, a romance-based RP] ...straight... Power: [see the "Powers" spoiler] Flight Biography: She was raised as a happy child with her birth mother, and was told that her father had left and never came back. She didn't remain mad at him, only for an instant, for she knew that her father would only leave their child if they had a really good reason to. She had a normal life at school though she had few friends, because of her tendency to miss out on the latest fashions. Waah!

Asriel Dreemurr Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Hmm...to keep the genders in this RP balanced, I shall be making a female character. Anyone who knows me knows this is not typical. Name: Kara Retsuri Age: 17 Gender: Female [spoiler=Appearance:] [IMG]http://i521.photobucket.com/albums/w339/Kiokama/RPCs/591.jpg[/IMG][/spoiler] Personality: Kara is, well to put it mildly, fiery. She is quite passionate and intends to excel in all she does. Sexual orientation: Bisexual Power: [b]Pyrokinesis, aka the Creation and Manipulation of fire.[/b] Exactly what it sounds like, the abillity to conjure fire from your body. In the power is concentrated around her hands, but will grow to the point that she can call upon it from any part of her body and eventually learn to form solid objects and weapons from the flames. [spoiler=Biography:] Kara grew up with her mother in a quiet community in Central Texas. She does not speak with an accent, surprisingly, and she does not own anything along the lines of "cowgirl" apparel. That's right, there are city folk in Texas too. Anyways, she lived normally until one interesting experience in her Junior year, she was age seventeen at the time. At lunch, one of the local jocks decided that he was going to "get lucky" with her. Of course, not having even the slightest bit of attraction to him, she refused. He didn't take her refusal too kindly. She herself was on the local swim team and, as such, had to stay after school for practice. The jock was on the Football team and had to do the same. Swimming practice ran late that day and she ended up heading home at the same time as he was. He saw her in the school parking lot and rushed her as she was getting into her car. He forced her down and tore her clothing off, deciding that there wasn't a better time for him to do that. She struggled against him, but wasn't strong enough. Furious with her own weakness, she managed to awaken the power that had laid dormant within her. She burst into flames, causing the jock to leap off of her as he tried to put out the fire which was suddenly engulfing him. Before anyone could do anything about it, she had burnt him to cinders. It was at this time that her father decided to show himself. It was none other than the recently, in angelic standards, redeemed Son of Lucifer known as Kiokama Retsuri. He escorted her home, not using her now scorched and still flaming car, and explained things to her, with the help of her Mother. She took it surprisingly well, considering what had been explained to her, and she readily accepted the invitation to go to Eden High. One detail her Father and Mother had left out was the fact that Kiokama was both an Arch Angel and the Redeemed Son of Lucifer. Better that she not know she's the devil's granddaughter. It should also be noted that she is a virgin.[/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
