[hider]Q: Will the RP include canon characters--playable or otherwise? A: No it will not, the RP will be decidedly AU with mention of the canon characters being either minimal or non-existent. Q: Would people like to be able to create unique histories and their own lore (royal families, factions, races) at some point in the RP? A: It would be nice to create histories and lore, but obviously to an extent. Too many races would crowd an already crowded world, as would too many factions. Q: Would people like to have the chance to lead their own Arcs later in the RP? A: As long as they're sound and well planned and thought out, I don't have a problem with it. I imagine the GM's will work alongside players in order to keep a nice flow? Q: As Bleach is a verse centered around conflict between factions and inviduals, it stands to reason that an RP based on it will also be as such. The question is, what races do people prefer to be playable? Shinigami, Arrancar, Quincy, Spiritually Aware Humans, etc etc. A: I feel like making too many of these factions playable could end up messy. Perhaps once the RP is established and we have a decent list of regular players, we could branch out into other playable factions? Q: Would people prefer the story's villain faction to be playable, or ought they be controlled by the GMs entirely--or is a middle ground best? A: I feel like GM's should mainly control the villain faction, perhaps bringing some trustworthy and reliable people into it as they see fit? Q: Should there be a limit to how many characters a player can make? A: Yes. Too many characters can ruin the balance of the RP and overwhelm the player. In saying that, a reasonable limit should be placed - like two-hundred-million... Q: ???? A: Yes, I know I'm the most awesome person in the world.[/hider]
