One Piece: into the Horizon Intro Once there was a man named Palladium D. Platinum, Lord of the lawless. This man enjoyed notoriety, riches and supremacy beyond even the most creative mind's wildest dreams. The final words of this great man, before his head was cleaved from his body was "Everything I have is yours for the taking. You merely need to find it. All I have I leave in a single place." Thus pirates from all over the world set sail for the grand line. Thus began the golden age of pirates. Overview Hello and welcome to One Piece: Into the Horizon. This is a One Piece rp where our characters will take the place of starry eyed rookies, with the goal of becoming the best in the world. [b]The Rules and expectations[/b] 1. Follow the sites rules. 2. I reserve to the right to add or edit rules as I see fit. 3. The GM(myself), followed by any co-Gms have final say over a situation. 4. Be nice. There are always going to be disagreements in an rp, but that doesn't mean name calling or verbal abuse will be tolerated. 5. Casual standards, meaning posts should be no less than two paragraphs long and the grammar should be good enough that anyone can understand what's been said with a minimum of effort ie if a post takes somebody five rereads to figure out what's being said then it doesn't reach casual standards. 6. With the exception of Gm and/ or co-GMs everyone will be allowed a single character 7. No speed posting 8. Everyone needs to post at least once every week(seven days) If you cannot post then please get in contact with someone in charge so your character can be taken over by someone else or moved to aside until your return. Failure to post in seven days and get into contact with someone will result in your character's death. Also, I'm well aware that sometimes this is difficult because a rp is a group effort so being able to reply, due to others, will be taken into account. 9. [hider=Restrictions on abilities] 1. Devil Fruit users are allowed one fruit only, no exceptions. 2. No invincibility abilities. This means that an ability shouldn't make it impossible for an individual character to be killed by normal means ie a vital organ's destruction should still lead to death. 3. No reality warping abilities thus nothing that changes the laws of physics, probability alteration, logic manipulation, etc, etc 4. No Time manipulating abilities. 5. No power leaching. No abilities that allow a character to copy or steal the abilities of other characters. [/hider] 10. with the exception of those who've already expressed interest In this, The rp is first come first serve. In the beginning there will be six spaces available, but more may open up as time goes by. 11. Optional: If possible, I would like the players of this rp to take turns leading various story arcs as it will give everyone's character a time to shine, as well as give the GM a bit more time to come up with the various areas islands and character's we'll meet on our journey. If interested in running an arc, or even if you junk think you've got an idea with possibility, pm me so we can start discussing the idea.
