[Jackel The Mad]

[b][font=arial, helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]There are rumors of an amazing place, it is said to be completely untouched by the war. People from all over the country have tried to get there, but all have failed. Nobody knows exactly where it is at only that it is in a remote area in Northern California. This area is is heavily occupied by NCR and Gouls, the biggest problem is finding it and surviving long enough to get there. Our story take us to the next group of people to try and make it to to this safe haven.[/size][/font][/b]

[spoiler=Rules]

1)All YCM rules apply

2)[spoiler=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.[/spoiler]

3)[spoiler=ADVANCED CLAUSE]
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.[/spoiler]

Seeing as you're new, I'll step in and say your plot requires more description. For example, what are these "NCR and Gouls"? Why did the war start? What's the state of the world right now? Please fix this. 24 hours.
