How to Make a Character:
Mechanics: (how to start your outline)
step 1: go to the 'Character Bio Outline' thread
step 2: copy the text there
step 3: go to the 'New Characters' board
step 4: start a new thread
step 5: paste the text from the character outline in your new message
step 6: fill in each category based on what you want your character to be
step 7: post your character and wait for staff to give their opinion
Content: (i.e. stuff you can't do & other)
No wierd attributes unless believable explained well
If your character knows magic, explain how & why. Same for literacy.
No recent relatives from EEK's canon (using ancestors from long ago is allowed, though)
No grey dragons (this site consideres them too rare, and since the first book of AoF is about a grey, we don't want to have a disproportionate amount of them compared to their natural rarity)
When naming male dragons, in accordance with the above rule about relatives, the following first syllables are not allowed in names: Au-, Noo-, Em-, Dhar-, Ag-, Ni-, He-, Ru-, Si-, Fe- (phew! I think that's all of them) ^.^'
Acceptance:
Do NOT PM staff members or make comments in the Cbox about your character being ready - the more you bug us, the less we'll pay attention, until we ban you for spamming
When your character gets two staff 'approvals', it will be considered 'accepted' and ready for the RP (note: this number will change if/as we get more staff)
and as one last note, in another effort to keep with canon, I would like to keep the dragon:dragonelle ratio near 1:2. also, there shouldn't be many pure-blood elves
